| 4 | This endeavor to produce more nuclear power has stimulated the development of safer designs of nuclear reactors . |
| 5 | However , due to recent technological advancements , nuclear waste disposal has become much safer . |
| 6 | The nuclear power technology can solve not only environmental problems caused by the combustion of fossil fuel , but also energy shortage at low cost and in environmental-friendly way . |

| 11 | Using more nuclear energy and less carbon-generated energy to produce electrical energy could mean a significant decrease in greenhouse gases and a cleaner earth to live on . |
| 12 | People will obtain safer cleaner and cheaper energy generated by nuclear power reactor . |
| 13 | Moreover , the disposal of nuclear waste has become much safer due to technological advancements . |
| 14 | Such issues include the safe operations of nuclear reaction As a result , the generation IV nuclear energy system was introduced , which was an improved design from their predecessors , Generation IV reactors are offering significant advances such as clean , safe and cost effective . |
| 15 | Moreover , the new nuclear reactor is able to save our environment by emitting much less waste gases than that produced by burning fossil fuels . |
| 16 | Thus , nuclear energy is more cost-efficient compared to existing energy resources and it is more environment-friendly . |
| 17 | After solving challenges in reactor cost , building materials and safety issues , VHTR will become a best choice for cheaper , cleaner and safer energy . |
| 18 | Therefore , using GenIV nuclear reactors is a very efficient way to reduce the effects of global warming . |
| 19 | Since energy harvested from nuclear reactors is highly efficient and has low material cost , it is seen as a good source of alternative energy . |
| 20 | There is a profound need for a new generation of nuclear reactors as they not only bring cleaner energy for our future generations but they are also a waste-free , terrorism-proof and affordable source of energy . |
| 21 | Newer technology helps to increase energy security as well as produces cleaner energy . |
| 22 | All these designs will lead to a more efficient usage of the nuclear fuel and also help solve the current problem of the disposal of nuclear wastes . |
| 23 | New generation of reactors such as VHTR will produce relatively cheap electricity while solving the threat posed by global climate change . |
| 24 | The advancement in technology will allow nuclear energy to be harnessed with increased safety and efficiently . |
| 25 | Nuclear power promises a viable source of energy which is far cleaner and more cost effective than conventional thermal power stations . |
| 26 | The usage of solar energy product will not only save large amounts of energy and solve the problem of energy crisis but also give us a clean world with little pollution . |
| 27 | Thus , nuclear power is not as dangerous compared to other sources of energy and VHTR can be made safer with modern technology . |
| 28 | In conclusion , governments should support further research and development on nuclear energy as the security concern regarding nuclear waste can be eliminated ; moreover , nuclear plants are the most efficient energy source and the cost of nuclear energy is the cheapest in the long term . |
| 29 | On the other hand , increasing the efficiency of current generators will allow optimisation tune-ups , which are less costly and more likely to be welcomed and readily adopted by the energy business . |
| 30 | Therefore , technology can reduce the risks of nuclear power and therefore ensure the safety of it . |
| 31 | Apart from safety and environmental issues , Nuclear Energy should be encouraged due to its lower costs in the long run . |
| 32 | Nuclear power is safer with new technology that saves production cost . |
| 33 | ITER has significant benefits over the current class IV reactors , it produces less nuclear waste and is more efficient in its production of electricity this could indirectly mean that cost of producing electricity with the use of the hybrid reactors will be much cheaper . |
| 34 | Thus , government can easily lower the cost of electric energy retrieved , which make cost of nuclear energy competitive to the others .Furthermore , safety design also eliminate the chance of leaking radiation , make nuclear reactor a absolutely clean energy . |
| 35 | This leads to an increased urgency to turn to the usage of alternative energy such as nuclear energy , as the waste produced does not contain any greenhouse gases , thus it will help reduce global warming , as well as climate change . |
| 36 | To sum up , nuclear energy is safe to develop and use with the continuing evolution of nuclear plants and reactors , and it is also an emission- free energy source which can significantly reduce carbon dioxide gas and acid rains . |
| 37 | Due to the fact that a passive safety concept offers an opportunity to effect a large simplification ( in the form of reduction of human intervention and external source of power ) , costs on the construction of nuclear power plants are cut down significantly . |
| 38 | Although there are a few drawbacks of nuclear power , we can reduce these negative effects by using the latest technology in newer reactors and placing emphasis on public safety . |
| 39 | Since , nuclear power does not affect the environment as drastically as fossil fuels , if its waste is well managed , and provides much higher ration of power to the amount of fuel used , it is the most feasible fuel source available to us . |
| 40 | Obviously , to lessen the world 's thirst for energy in the long term , and to reduce the growing number of disasters , I am in favor of using nuclear power as a main resource of energy in the future . |
| 41 | Still , in point of fact , nuclear power plants can reduce the expenditure in producing more energy in the long run . |
| 42 | To apply them not only can improve the safety issue , but also opens up bright prospects for nuclear power . |
| 43 | These technologies have many advantages , such as enhancing nuclear safety , minimizing the generation of nuclear waste and decreasing the risk of nuclear weapons proliferation ( Gen IV International Forum,2007 ) . |
| 44 | With promises of lower cost , less waste and a safer alternative , it may seem that nuclear power with the introduction of generation IV reactors such as the super-critical-water- cooled reactors is the next generation of power plants . |
| 45 | People expect the new and upcoming Generation IV nuclear power plants to be efficient and at the same time expecting engineers and researchers to make them safer and cheaper . |
| 46 | The usage of nuclear power helps to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gas , slowing down global warming and purifying air which will in turn reduce the indirect cost of greenhouse gas . |
| 47 | To summarize , GRF can be a favorable energy supply because it can achieve a wider range of industry applications with minimized radioactive waste . |
| 48 | This concept , known as Very-High-Temperature-Reactor ( VHTR ) , is capable of improving our energy supply , clearing all doubts about the efficiency and safety of nuclear power . |
| 49 | A series of generation IV nuclear reactors are newly designed for better efficiency , in the meantime , they are also improved on safety issues . |
| 50 | Thus , we can observe that technological advancements in nuclear power can allow it to be safer than other kinds of nuclear power plants . |
| 51 | Nuclear power could play a huge role in reducing global warming emissions because nuclear reactors emit almost no carbon while they operate and have low life-cycle emissions . |
| 52 | ) Such feature increases sustainability of SFR and makes it easier to ease public anxiety over the security of new nuclear power technology . |
| 53 | There is definitely no question that producing an increasing share of electric power using nuclear fuel in lieu of fossil fuels will reduce greenhouse gases emissions . |
| 54 | Its ability to provide reliable safety , efficient waste management and effective cost minimization enables itself to have a competitive edge over other energy sources . |
| 55 | Concepts of nuclear power plant in generation IV have shown substantial improvements in cost , safety and efficiency especially VHTR . |
| 56 | These state-of-the-art nuclear reactors will be able to minimize nuclear wastes and reduce the long-term stewardship burden posed by traditional nuclear reactors . |
| 57 | Firstly , there have been reports that the use of nuclear energy is much safer as there are much fewer accidents happening in nuclear plants compared to the number of accidents that happened in conventional fuel-burning energy plant . |
| 58 | Therefore , through the discovery of new forms of convenient and renewable energy , the price of energy could be more stable . |
| 59 | The primary goals being to improve nuclear safety , efficient thermal performance and reduce cost . |
| 60 | Using nuclear energy can decrease the emission of natural gas , generate a large amount of energy to meet future needs . |
| 61 | Nuclear power has since expanded to replace conventional fuels because of the higher efficiency it can provide to the world . |
| 62 | Nuclear energy would be able to clean the air and reduce greenhouse gas emissions . |
| 63 | Considering that the benefits nuclear energy brings outweigh the disadvantages , further research and development and funding should be provided for more advanced reactors that are safer , more powerful and less costly . |
| 64 | All the energy generated by the very high temperature reactor will reduce the usage of the fossil fuel . |
| 65 | Moreover , additional R & D technologies for the VHTR includeing high temperature alloy , fiber reinforced ceramics and composite materials can further improve the efficiency and cut down the costs ( U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear , 2002 ) . |
| 66 | Closing the nuclear fuel cycle through the use of advanced reprocessing and fast reactor technologies is a good way to improve the security of the reactor and avoid duplication of effort at the same time . |
| 67 | ( Gen IV reactors , 2009 ) Moreover , newer advanced reactors have simpler designs which further reduce capital cost and they are more fuel efficient and safer . |
| 68 | We should support research and development of GIV reactor as it provides safe and clean energy and its cost will be reduced with further advancement in technology . |
| 69 | By designing better electrical appliances that could perform the same function with less energy used , we could save a large amount of energy . |
| 70 | However , using the generation IV nuclear reactors would reduce the emission of greenhouse gases as a method known as nuclear fission is applied to tap energy . |
| 71 | To apply nuclear energy properly can greatly benefit human beings . |
| 72 | Hence , the new reactor is more environmentally friendly and at the same time reduces people 's fear of the waste . |
| 73 | In addition , the effectiveness of its utilization of nuclear fuel also contributes to its low cost if it is launched into production . |
| 74 | In conclusion , Generation IV MSR does provide energy hungry cities with the amount of electricity needed and it reduces greenhouse effect due to the zero carbon dioxide emission , and lastly it is much safer than the previous Generation plants with enhanced meltdown technology . |
| 75 | This era is 'Nuclear Renaissance ' , and the reasons for the renaissance of nuclear are due to the advanced technology and innovation of human to make nuclear power safer , cleaner with better cost effectiveness . |
| 76 | More resources should be allocated to further research and develop Generation Four ( GIV ) nuclear power reactor as it can provide clean and safe energy at reasonable price . |
| 77 | The new generation nuclear reactors prove to be more effective in terms of cost , performance and security . |
| 78 | Safe , less waste and more affordable , these are the characteristics of our future energy . |
| 79 | Supercritical-water-cooled reactors ( SCWRs ) share the benefits of Generation IV and some further benefits compared with other kinds of reactors . SCWRs may also resolve some concerns about safety and cost with some further development . |
| 80 | Although the possibility of accidents exists , under strict management and better technology , the number of accidents will be reduced and nuclear energy will be a kind of energy that is environmental friendly . The public should fund its development . |
| 81 | Nowadays the focus has turned to how to ensure the nuclear energy is safer , more economic-benefited and efficient than other energy choices . |
| 82 | Optimists say that the cost will be greatly reduced when generation IV reactors are developed as they will work with much higher efficiency . |
| 83 | With its highly efficient fuel burn-up , NGNPs will have a lower carbon footprint than coal and gas technology and at the same time , having less radioactive material remaining in the spent pellets reduces the amount of radioactive waste to be treated , improving the overall process economy . |
| 84 | However , VHTR has its unique design which makes the disposal of nuclear wastes convenient and safe . |
| 85 | With strong performance in the SCWR concept , mankind would experience better protection with the construction of new nuclear plants . |
| 86 | This , in fact , has become possible after the development of the VHTR which incorporates features that minimize the risks of accidents and enable safer disposal of nuclear waste . |
| 87 | Not only do all these alternative sources of energy help help reduce our dependence on non-renewable energy sources , but but the power generation processes for renewable energy are also environmentally friendlier . |
| 88 | Funding for generation IV nuclear reactors would be useful as they help reduce greenhouse gases . |
| 89 | However , over the recent years , research is starting to show that such issues can be overcome , and together with the launch of generation IV reactor concepts , we may be on hand to witness the revival of nuclear reactors which are safer , more valuable and more energy-efficient . |
| 90 | It also allows us to utilize more capable generation IV reactors sooner and helps reduce the amount of nuclear wastes . |
| 91 | Further research into VHT reactors would improve safety standards and ease public concern . |
| 92 | With continual research and advancement of nuclear power technology , the nuclear reactors of the generations to come will be safer to operate , more efficient and are accident-safe due to more sophisticated automatic shutdown mechanisms . |
| 93 | Nuclear power has its benefits , it is more environmental friendly as compared to renewable resources , we are in the midst of producing a nuclear hybrid reactor which is much cleaner and efficient than the current class IV reactors ( Butler , 2004 ) and they are relatively safer than before . |
| 94 | Furthermore Generation IV reactors are able to produce more energy ; thus , the cost of the energy would be cheaper . |
| 95 | In addition , nuclear reprocessing also increases the efficiency of the usage of uranium and hence makes nuclear power a sustainable source of energy . |
| 96 | Generally , modern small reactors for power generation are expected to have greater simplicity of design , economy of mass production , and reduced sitting costs . |
| 97 | Research into fuel cycle and physically stronger and more radiation resistant structural materials would minimise the operating costs with improved operations and performance . |
| 98 | To conclude , in spite of claims that nuclear reactors are dangerous and costly , the VHTR with its improved design , can overcome these issues . |
| 99 | Lastly , more procedures will help decrease the potential danger of nuclear energy . |
| 100 | Moreover , the cost of nuclear energy can be made lower through research and adopting nuclear energy in a large scale . |
| 101 | Moreover , a successfully operated nuclear plant is much more environmentally friendly than coal or gas power stations , which means a relatively lower waste disposal cost . |
| 102 | It is safe and efficient , so therefore it can produce a lot of energy and is able to replace traditional sources of energy . |
| 103 | Considering nuclear technology , the methods used to control the reactors have been significantly improved . |
| 104 | The new Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor ( GFR ) concepts focus mainly on sustainable nuclear power , with very efficient resource use and so little wastage . |
| 105 | Perhaps a solution to save our planet will be to use a cleaner energy source -- nuclear power , which does not emit any harmful gases . |
| 106 | In conclusion , the generation IV reactors are more advantageous over the current reactors being used because of the benefits which include , the nuclear waste that lasts for a lesser time , increase in efficiency as more energy is generated from the same amount of fuel and the ability to reuse the spent fuel in generating electricity . |
| 107 | Both of these systems , especially the Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor , promises higher efficiency , lower operational cost and enhanced safety measures over current generation of reactors . |
| 108 | Therefore , GCFR not only can have efficient energy conversion with the current design but also has an economically beneficial outcome . |
| 109 | Therefore , with lower risks and a thermal efficiency that can match the other reactors , the SCWR is clearly a more superior choice , compared with the other Generation IV reactors . |
| 110 | Among them , solar energy is the best choice because it is safer than nuclear energy and easier to obtain as compared to geothermal energy . |
| 111 | As a result , it is easier for SFR to achieve its intended goal of providing energy to the world . Similarly , it has the potential to achieve a higher efficiency rate . |
| 112 | The low temperature and pressure requirements lower the demands of the equipment and the conditions for the reaction ; as a result , the reactor becomes safer . |
| 113 | Nuclear energy being non-polluting could be an environmentally-friendly alternative which would alleviate the profound threat to humanity caused by severe climate change . |
| 114 | As nuclear power plants receive government subsidies due to the fact that it is a cleaner gas , this means that construction costs incurred by the company will be greatly reduced . |
| 115 | In conclusion , using nuclear energy can actually save a lot of funds . |
| 116 | This is to make sure the risk of operating nuclear power plants can be minimized tremendously . |
| 117 | Furthermore , nuclear energy is a clean alternative to fossil fuel as it emits far less greenhouse gases ( Gianni , 2006 ) . |
| 118 | Furthermore , technology has allowed the generation of nuclear power to be much safer than other forms of power generation . |
| 119 | As a result , the SCWR costs much less to build and greatly simplifies the nuclear plant . |
| 120 | Meanwhile the high efficiency of fuel utilization in VHTR makes reactors use less fuels which in turn lower the cost of fuels ( OECD ) , 2005 ) . |
| 121 | Research and development of the VHTR can help to ensure safer operation of a nuclear reactor where safety aspects of the reactor will be better than before . |
| 122 | This goes to show that nuclear reactors have become safer for operation . |
| 123 | The recent research and development of generation IV nuclear reactor makes the large scale use of nuclear energy more reliable and feasible because of its sustainability , reliability , economics and proliferation resistance . |
| 124 | Amongst all , the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) proves to be promising with advantages such as passive safety , flexibility , higher efficiency and non-proliferation of nuclear waste . |
| 125 | For example , SCWR is a high efficient nuclear generator that will save a lot of cost when the maintenance is well-practiced . |
| 126 | It is widely regarded as a cheap alternative source of electricity to alleviate the pressures of fossil fuels depletive nature . |
| 127 | Among these new energy resources , nuclear power is highly favored by researchers due to its abundant base materials , low quantities of waste and comparatively cheap fuel costs . |
| 128 | The revolution in fuel utilization in Generation IV reactors will reduce the radio toxicity by a large extent ( Jacques & Ralph , 2008 ) . |
| 129 | Due to the numerous advantages that nuclear energy brings about , it is very likely to be one of the most feasible solutions to the world 's energy crisis . |
| 130 | In addition , the development of nuclear power also improves the energy security of a country . |
| 131 | Combination of higher operating temperature which increases power output and low fuel utilization translates to cheaper energy . |
| 132 | In addition , because of the super enthalpy of supercritical water , more energy will be transplanted but less unexpected by-products will be produced , which will certainly decrease the risk of contamination to the environment and enhance the integral efficiency of transplanting , which will effectually reduce carbon emissions by burning less fossil fuels . |
| 133 | Nuclear waste may become a safe energy source . |
| 134 | They are claimed to be " safer " energy sources as the probability accidents are deemed to be lower . |
| 135 | Moreover , compared to the Light-water reactor ( LWRs ) , it provides a simplified , reduced volume system with higher thermal efficiency . |
| 136 | Thus , it can be observed that technological advancements can increase the safety of nuclear power . |
| 137 | Secondly , arguments are that nuclear power is the best alternative because of the characteristic of not producing combustion-related air- pollutants that will lead to global warming , and because of the huge power supply it provides . |
| 138 | Hence , compared with other energy , nuclear energy actually is much safer ! |
| 139 | It is one of the clean and renewable energy sources which can help us solve the emergent problems of energy shortage . |
| 140 | Furthermore , nuclear power helps reduce greenhouse gases and help combat climate change . |
| 141 | This will greatly reduce the possibility of a radioactive leak and make the nuclear reactors safer than ever . |
| 142 | With technological advancement , SWCR can reduce the cost of nuclear energy . |
| 143 | Generally , the Generation IV reactors are known as more environmental friendly and can reduce the greenhouse effect . |
| 144 | They are more efficient and require less resource to operate , compared to fossil fuels and solar energy . |
| 145 | With innovations to reduce capital cost , it can be extended to electricity production , given the proven capability of sodium reactors to utilize almost all of the energy in the natural uranium . |
| 146 | Nuclear power plants may be hazardous , but the new SFR boosts many new safeguards . |
| 147 | They are manageable nuclear waste , better safety performance and secure nuclear energy . |
| 148 | Nuclear energy can also satisfy the increasing demand of energy , thus solving the problem of energy shortage . |
| 149 | There is no doubt that nuclear power can efficiently help ease climate change with low cost . |
| 150 | Hence solar energy is the best choice as the equipments are easier to maintain and safer to use . |
| 151 | These new plants will operate at high temperatures to improve their efficiency and they will include simplified safety features that rely on non sophisticated back up systems to eradicate any problems . |
| 152 | One of the nuclear reactors , the Supercritical Water Cooled Reactor ( SCWR ) , has been proven to be one of the excellent methods to generate cheap and safe power for consumption . |
| 153 | Therefore we need to produce energy which is clean , safe , abundant and cost-effective . |
| 154 | Yet , SFR is still quite efficient and economical in terms of its recycle of nuclear fuel and flexibility in the plant structure . |
| 155 | Hence , being a much more efficient reactor , it lowers the operating and capital costs . |
| 156 | Furthermore , the SCWR reactor 's efficiency and relatively simple design , would be cheaper to build and run than normal reactors . |
| 157 | It is because the construction of more advanced nuclear energy systems often addresses their economics in a variety of changing markets in order to overcome the high construction cost , the VHTR system reflects its potential economically and safely generating power energy such as electricity and hydrogen at a high efficiency without the emission of toxic gases . |
| 158 | Moreover , the simplified safety feature makes those new reactors less of a terrorist target . |
| 159 | Transportation which is cheap and safe , environmentally friendly and uses alternative source of energy , is most desirable . |
| 160 | Therefore this further enhances the safety aspect of running a nuclear plant and should adequately address the concerns of the public . |
| 161 | these factors result in low operation costs for nuclear power plants . |
| 162 | 'Safe and reliable ' mainly emphasizes that the future reactors should perform better or at least as well in terms of the safety and reliability as current ones . |
| 163 | Besides , the operation costs involved in maintaining high temperature and pressure within nuclear reactors during nuclear fission is notably low in MSRs since they operate at a much lower temperature and pressure . |
| 164 | Nuclear power has proven to be an effective energy source as it can generate electricity efficiently to satisfy the world 's energy needs . |
| 165 | Therefore , nuclear power is considered as potential energy options to ease the deteriorating energy problem we are facing today . |
| 166 | Apart from the safety of nuclear power , the high efficiency is another factor that prompts the researchers to promote SFR method . |
| 167 | The increase in fuel efficiency will reduce operational cost since there will be less need for storage of long life radioactive waste products . |
| 168 | This will considerably reduce the amount of nuclear waste produced . |
| 169 | The reasons for my support on the provision of funds are because there is a global shortage of energy supply and generation IV reactors are generally more efficient and environmental friendly . |
| 170 | As such , it is clear that nuclear power is environmentally friendly and should be used so that we can reduce our carbon emissions . |
| 171 | Therefore , nuclear power can be considered as the best solution as it produce amount of energy but produce little amount of waste . |
| 172 | Although VHTR has the advantage of high fuel burn up , SFR performs better in areas such as having low maintenance and operating cost , passive safety and potential modular construction . |
| 173 | Nonetheless , the VHTR is claimed to not only offer high-efficient electricity production but is also designed to be safer higher security against nuclear weapons . |
| 174 | Therefore , reducing the amount of nuclear wastes produced and thus reducing the dangers of nuclear waste disposal . |
| 175 | And with modern technologies , nuclear power plants can produce electricity more efficiently . |
| 176 | Yet , further research and development funding for the Generation IV nuclear prototypes , in particular the very-high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) which is safer and can output greater electricity , should be supported . |
| 177 | However , the amount of nuclear waste and its negative effects will be greatly reduced with the use of VHTR . |
| 178 | Conventional fears of catastrophic nuclear accidents can be put to rest with the new generation nuclear plants which use the latest technology to ensure maximum safety . |
| 179 | In common with other fast reactors , GFRs also have the exceptional potential , due to the hard neutron spectrum , as sustainable energy sources using the fissile materials , and could then minimize nuclear waste . |
| 180 | It is apparent that eventually nuclear energy will be significantly cheaper even in regions that are rich in fossil fuel . |
| 181 | The efficiency of the nuclear reactor also means the reduction of refueling , so it minimizes the frequency of radioactive substance transfer . |
| 182 | In conclusion , the public might be tempted to switch to nuclear energy because nuclear energy , like wind energy and light energy , is environmentally friendly and very energy-efficient . |
| 183 | In conclusion , with the improvement of technology , nuclear power is becoming a very reasonable alternative for us human beings to choose to replace today 's fossil energy resource . |
| 184 | Firstly , although the efficiency of nuclear power has been proven by older models , the new VHTR promises an even more effective production . |
| 185 | In contrast , with the development of the nuclear technology and the application of nuclear energy on a large scale , the efficiency of nuclear reactors will be improved gradually and the price of nuclear energy will decrease . |
| 186 | The VHTR will in fact produce more and cheaper energy than existing power plants . |
| 187 | However , because of the lower electricity cost and the ability to meet the world 's demand in the future . |
| 188 | Anyway , all the efforts made by the investigator and engineers are to make the nuclear power plants much safer and the resultant measures can be more widely used to meet the great demand of energy today . |
| 189 | Above all , the reactor shows the potential to be sustainable , an advantage that can allow it to be built on a large enough scale to shoulder a significant portion of the world 's energy needs . |
| 190 | So in my opinion , funds should be injected into further research and development of nuclear power , to create a new generation of cleaner , safer and cheaper power to solve the looming energy crisis . |
| 191 | In a long run , nuclear technology is definitely going to be more efficient and beneficial to the society . |
| 192 | That is , nuclear power , especially that produced by the VHTR , is a much cleaner source of energy for the environment , so further research and development should be done on it . |
| 193 | Lastly it has better systems which would prevent similar incidents as the meltdown of the nuclear power reactor . |
| 194 | However , in my opinion , other alternate energy sources like solar and hydro energy have more potential to be the new dawn for energy as they have far more advantages than nuclear energy and with lesser risk involved . |
| 195 | To sum up , although there exists disagreement of the use of SCWR due to its issue of reliability and safety , SCWR is worthy for further research because it is based on two current technologies , which increases its reliability , and its design principle improves its thermal efficiency compared to LWR and reduce the possibility of causing nuclear accidents . |
| 196 | In addition , better technology will lower the unit cost of generating nuclear power . |
| 197 | Furthermore , the new generation IV reactors are more safe and also help combat future climate changes . |
| 198 | Last but not least , with the innovative design structure and modern materials , SFR therefore has lower power plant capital cost with higher effective productivity . |
| 199 | A good nuclear reactor concept would be one which strikes a balance between cost and performance without compromising the safety aspects . |
| 200 | All these guidelines will save electricity and reduce environmental impact as well . |
| 201 | Now , the 6 nuclear energy systems are technologies which include advantages like reduced capital cost , enhanced nuclear safety , minimal generation of nuclear waste , and further reduction of the risk of weapon material proliferation . |
| 202 | Furthermore , VHTR produces cheaper energy compared to solar and wind energy . |
| 203 | To sum-up , the nuclear energy is much more environment-friendly and it is a better choice compared to coals and gases as more electricity can be generated by the same amount of nuclear energy with comparative costs . |
| 204 | In fact , compared to other forms of electricity generation , nuclear power is ascendant with lower cost . |
| 205 | In addition , finding some new energy is also a feasible solution to prevent the crisis . |
| 206 | These new reactors are also more reliable and resistant against proliferation , and are able to use their fuel more efficiently , thus producing less plutonium waste ( Generation IV , 2009 ) . |
| 207 | In addition , if further research is done on VHTR reactor , the cost of using nuclear energy may even be lower . |
| 208 | On the contrary , the SFR system has more advantages over VHTR on its safety , efficiency and costs , which make the SFR a promising reactor . |
| 209 | Hence nuclear power is becoming a more viable option as it produces consistent output of electricity in large amounts . |
| 210 | Though the capital cost of the VHTR is high the operational cost is comparatively less since the VHTR is highly efficient at higher temperatures and hence is a good solution to get cheaper electricity . |
| 211 | However , with the designing of generation IV reactors such as VHTR , the problems of radioactive waste disposal and the high cost of electricity generated by nuclear power plant will be solved . |
| 212 | Nuclear power is one of the alternative energy sources that is being considered to arbitrate these problems due to its efficiencies and environmental friendly processes . |
| 213 | Opponents maintain that developing power reactors would enable the public to benefit from low-priced electricity that can build more factories which will eventually help to create jobs for the people as well as alleviate poverty . |
| 214 | And the driving force behind this is for the purpose of saving energy and protecting limited resources on our planet . |
| 215 | Selecting the best solution will minimize the energy consumption and cut down the cost for producing the product or sustaining the system . |
| 216 | In order to ease the worry of public about safety issues of nuclear power , scientists are working hard to come up with the next generation of nuclear reactors which excels in enhanced safety , cost-effectiveness and better performance . |
| 217 | The concerns are uncalled for as continuous research and development will bring about cheaper and safer operation of nuclear plants . |
| 218 | In comparison with fossil fuels , renewable fuels will be much cheaper and more stable due to their wide availability without freight cost . |
| 219 | However , with the building of generation IV reactors such as the VHTR , problems that the old generation reactors faced will be greatly reduced , making nuclear power a viable energy source . |
| 220 | This shows that the new reactor will be able to produce cheaper energy . |
| 221 | Therefore , due to the small amount of nuclear waste produced from nuclear power plants , and the ease of recycling the already small amount of nuclear waste due to technological advancements , nuclear waste disposal is much safer than before . |
| 222 | In addition , efficiency is raised effectively due to high temperature , which accordingly reduces the use of fuel and the cost of complementary equipment by 50 % or more . |
| 223 | Nuclear energy was once regarded as a major future energy source which would provide cheap and clean energy . |
| 224 | We can save energy by improving new technology . |
| 225 | Thus these enhanced features of MSRs further reduce any possibility of any nuclear reactor-based accidents . |
| 226 | The development of nuclear power plant becomes more and more important as nuclear power is a more efficient and environment friendly source of energy . |
| 227 | GCFR is an excellent choice in terms of sustainability because it is capable in minimizing radioactive waste more effectively as compared to the VHTR . |
| 228 | Nevertheless , scientists found that nuclear power risks are actually tiny and they can also be further reduced through using the updated technological reactors . |
| 229 | The strong technological backup provides adequate safety ; the specific innovational design of the system ensures high work efficiency ; the ultra long lifetime and early delivery brings comparatively lower cost . |
| 230 | However , with its unique advantages and the global demand of energy , it is reasonable and to some extent necessary to support further research funding of SWCR . |
| 231 | This solution can be further by considering different types of methods to generate energy in less polluting ways . |
| 232 | Moreover , compared with the VHTR , the SCWR is a one . Thus , it can produce more potentially usable fuel , which means less core material such as uranium would be consumed to produce the same quantities of electricity . |
| 233 | If they can be integrated together , the safety of the SCWR will be dramatically enhanced . |
| 234 | ( Tilkki V. Supercritical Water Reactors : A Survey on International State of Research in 2006 , 2006 ) . the simple design reduces the construction cost of the nuclear electrical station . |
| 235 | By researching the new generation of nuclear reactors , we can enjoy more efficient and safer energy around us . |
| 236 | Furthermore , it is much easier for us to develop nuclear technology than explore other new energy resources . |
| 237 | To engineers and scientists , the applications of nuclear reactors would encourage them to find more efficient way to generate energy from reactors and the improve the safety of reactors in case of any accidents . |
| 238 | Despite producing less carbon footprints , nuclear power is a relatively dangerous source of energy . |
| 239 | Supporters of the SCWR claim that the SCWR would have a reduced capital cost as a result of plant simplification and high thermal efficiency . |
| 240 | The criteria are : the new energy should be safe ; the energy should be sustainable ; the energy should not create pollution ; and the price of the energy should be acceptable . |
| 241 | Moreover , nuclear power can generate much more energy thaN the coal power and is more friendly to environment . |
| 242 | Also , the new reactors are designed with the following objectives in mind : economic competitiveness , enhanced safety , minimal radioactive waste generation and proliferation resistance . |
| 243 | As a result , less energy is being dissipated as heat and energy wastage can then be prevented . |
| 244 | The MSR can produce nuclear energy with high safety and efficiency . |
| 245 | All these suggest that nuclear power is actually very energy-efficient and cost effective . |
| 246 | So if successfully improved and deployed , the SCWR reactor would effectively generate low-cost electricity . |
| 247 | Lastly , compared with the VHTR , owing to its lower temperature , the SCWR needs less heat to trigger the reactions and keep the thermal inertia , which saves more energy but also . |
| 248 | All in all , nuclear power is not exactly more hazardous than conventional power plants given the newer generation of nuclear plants which promises maximum safety and security with enhanced efficiency . |
| 249 | Their concerns are valid but with the advancement in nuclear technology , the VHTR is able to counteract these effects . |
| 250 | As one of the aims of VHT reactor research is cost reduction , the proposed research and development in this field will draw in resources and bring about a decrease in construction and production cost . |
| 251 | It seems that nuclear energy points to the way to meet future energy demands without destroying the environment . |
| 252 | Moreover , it can help to protect the environment and is much safer than using traditional energy resources . |
| 253 | In addition , VHTR has a low input cost which will lead to low processing cost that will produce cheaper electricity . |
| 254 | It is a good alternative energy source which not only reduces the greenhouse effect,but also helps solve the problems of limited fossil fuels . |
| 255 | Thus , through advanced research the cost of nuclear waste management can be reduced and the MSR technology can be enhanced to further minimize the harmful effects and to avoid nuclear waste proliferation . |
| 256 | Therefore , it can be shown that technology can be used to reduce the dangers of nuclear power . |
| 257 | However , with the expected increase in energy demand worldwide and the growing awareness of global warming , climate change and sustainable development , the new Generation IV ( Gen IV ) nuclear reactors seem to be the ultimate solution to these problems . |
| 258 | The new generation reactors , namely generation IV reactors , have tremendous potential in improving reactors ' efficiency and safety . |
| 259 | Currently , generating power using the nuclear reactor , VHTR , will be our best choice since it has zero emission , cheap , safe and efficient . |
| 260 | It can not only cool the nuclear plants fast , but also protect plants from seismic and other external events ( Eul , 2006 ) . |
| 261 | Meanwhile , it produces immense energy and is free of carbon emission , which makes it even more ideal for power supply . |
| 262 | To point out a few of them , the claimed benefits include minimised nuclear waste and improved safety . |
| 263 | It successfully resolves the public doubts about the safety , configuration and the waste production and gives us a bright and promising future of the nuclear power . |
| 264 | The design of the VHTR has incorporated a lot of safety features which enhances the safety of operating a nuclear plant . |
| 265 | 1 ) With this , we can reduce nuclear waste as it accumulates when we generate nuclear electricity . |
| 266 | This in turn saves energy that is needed to power these industries . |
| 267 | In addition , VHTR produces less nuclear wastes . |
| 268 | In addition , nuclear energy is less harmful to the environment and it is safe to humans . |
| 269 | In addition , it is categorised as a more efficient and cheaper energy source than conventional power technologies . |
| 270 | Therefore , with these improvements in technology , we are able to minimize or even eliminate these security issues concerning nuclear generators . |
| 271 | I believe with these safety features , the nuclear power reactor will be very safe . |
| 272 | Furthermore , the cost of operating nuclear reactors is low in comparison to operating fossil fuel power plants . |
| 273 | Besides that , the new designs will have a much better life-cycle cost advantage over other energy sources . |
| 274 | These reactors are generating electricity in a reliable , environmentally safe and affordable manner without emitting noxious gases into the atmosphere . |
| 275 | The generation IV reactors are not only safe to operate as they are machine operated , but they also reduce greenhouse gases that the current energy sources produce . |
| 276 | To conclude , the VHT reactor is a passively safe design which could potentially produce power at reasonable cost without contaminating the environment . |
| 277 | In addition to that , generation IV nuclear reactors also reduce the waste produced after the generation of the energy . |
| 278 | Hence , nuclear energy is definitely a safe and reasonable approach to solve the problem of producing enough energy for both the present and the future needs . |
| 279 | To reduce the carbon dioxide emission , a new energy source which can provide sufficient energy with the least emission of greenhouse gases should be considered since the energy needs of every country is rising . |
| 280 | Furthermore , SCWR is promised to supply low-cost electricity , and simpler design can minimize the cost , too . |
| 281 | However , in order to make the nuclear energy more powerful and safer , the money spent is worthy . |
| 282 | Since the MSR allows for more efficient conversion of heat to electricity and shorter-lived radioactivity , the radiation can be minimized . |
| 283 | Firstly , a nuclear power plant is more cost effective to operate as compared to other energy sources . |
| 284 | From a long term perspective , there should be R&D funding for the development of Generation IV reactors since Generation IV reactors are safer , cheaper and cleaner . |
| 285 | Hence , it makes best use of energy and reduces the entire cost . |
| 286 | Firstly , VHTR generates energy in a much simpler way compared to other types of reactors . |
| 287 | In addition , there are better alternatives such as renewable energy that will be able to support our energy needs in the long run . |
| 288 | With the development of science and technology , the SWCR will not only be able to efficiently produce clean energy but also significantly address the severe global warming challenge today . |
| 289 | There are new generations IV reactors which are proposed to provide better output and safer mechanism in operating them . |
| 290 | Different from Light Water Reactors used around the world today , the Super Critical Water Reactor is more likely to slow down and catch 'fast neutrons ' , which means it would burn less nuclear fuels in a more thorough way . |
| 291 | Using nuclear power to generate electricity really helps to protect environment . |
| 292 | However , nuclear energy is more efficient and gives a new future for energy consumption , especially after the use of generation IV nuclear reactors ( Hill , 2008 ) . |
| 293 | However , Generation IV reactors such as the VHTR have advanced safety mechanisms which will minimize the probability of accidents occurring . |
| 294 | With the advancement in nuclear technology , the upcoming generation IV reactors , such as the Sodium-cooled fast reactors , will be even safer and more efficient , making nuclear power the best option in providing mankind with enough electricity for now and the future . |
| 295 | The SFR 's fast spectrum also makes it possible to use available fissile and fertile materials ( including depleted uranium ) considerably more efficiently than thermal spectrum reactors with once-through fuel cycles , as reported by Generation IV International Forum . |
| 296 | Generation IV nuclear reactor plants promise higher redundancy , higher efficiency , and better safety features than its predecessors . |
| 297 | Operating at low temperature and pressure also means that this model is efficient as less heat is being transferred out of the system and the energy is turned to electricity . |
| 298 | Despite challenges within steps of the nuclear fuel cycle , they can be solved with improvements in technology and with global cooperation . |
| 299 | With low cost of electricity , people will enjoy the benefits . |
| 300 | However , with advancements in science and technology nowadays , the level of danger of the nuclear reactors would be minimised to the lowest degree . |
| 301 | This will reduce the greenhouse emissions as smaller amounts of fuel would be needed to generate the same amount of energy , thus meeting our need . |
| 302 | " The statistics have shown that the success of development of Generation IV reactors will bring a great improvement to the living environment for human beings in the future . |
| 303 | The damages caused by global warming may be causing the birth of nuclear technology , and given the benefits that it brings , it comes as no surprise that extensive research is constantly being done to ensure the smooth delivery for this renewable source of energy . |
| 304 | A single power plant can produce a large amount of energy compared to the amount produced by wind so in total , the nuclear energy is a cheap kind of energy . |
| 305 | Therefore in this context , safety design in VHTR has been introduced to take care of all the uncertainties and accidents which might occur with the ultimate goal of protecting the environment and people from being exposed to radiological hazards of potential release from the nuclear power plants . |
| 306 | Despite such concerns and queries , however , the new concept of VHTR does meet the public 's requirement in terms of safety , efficiency and cost , and the further research and development funding for it is definitely needed for resolving the energy crisis and also developing new materials and techniques . |
| 307 | All these efforts made by engineers have contributed to ensure a far better safety record for nuclear power plants than any other means of generating electricity today , and definitely they will be safer tomorrow than today . |
| 308 | The availability of Uranium and the dwindling fossil fuels have made nuclear power more feasible as people want to maintain natural resources . |
| 309 | Moreover , the nuclear power system is much more secure than other energy resource systems . |
| 310 | It is clear that nuclear technology is the best alternative to the current fossil fuel consumption as it produces a relative larger amount of energy . |
| 311 | Hence , the cost of nuclear energy is actually less than coal energy and it is much more environmentally friendly . |
| 312 | Thus , scientists have come out with the idea of Generation IV Reactors , which will be safer , cheaper and better in terms of performance . |
| 313 | The high investment cost is offset by the generation cost , making nuclear energy a much cheaper form of energy . |
| 314 | For SFR , it saves costs through two main methods : the reactor vessel and fuel . |
| 315 | Thus , it reduces the safety hazards which can arise due to the corrosion and the irradiation of the coolant . |
| 316 | Thus once developed properly , the cost of nuclear power will be very low . |
| 317 | However , if nuclear power is to win the approval of the previously disapproving public , it will have to be more cost-effective , environmentally-friendly and almost void of security concerns . |
| 318 | Even though SCWR has not been tested yet , it is proved to have less possibility of causing nuclear accidents as has happened before ; it is easier to implement compared to other generation VI reactors , and it has a relatively high thermal efficiency which makes its long-term cost relatively low . |
| 319 | This reduces their potential cost in the construction of a reactor which is larger than they need . |
| 320 | Since then , Nuclear power was often seen as the best alternative energy source as it has no carbon emission and can theoretically produce an unlimited amount of energy since nuclear fuel is inexpensive and abundant on earth . |
| 321 | The world therefore can not afford to ignore the potential source of low carbon energy provided by these fast nuclear reactors . |
| 322 | Since that VHTR uses a lower amount of fuel to produce higher amounts of energy , it is much more economic than other power plants regardless of the start up cost , as the start-up cost can be compensated in the long run . |
| 323 | Nonetheless , the advantages Generation IV nuclear power , specifically the Very-High- Temperature reactor ( VHTR ) , could provide can offset its high start up cost and overcome its disadvantages . |
| 324 | Solar energy , on the other hand , is easier to harness . |
| 325 | By releasing the energy stored in them , large amount of electricity is generated which can solve the electricity shortage in some regions of the world and give great support to the normal living and production activities . |
| 326 | ( Nuclear power 's new dawn ( 2004 ) ) However , research and current technology have improved the safety of using SWCR . |
| 327 | The objectives of Generation IV reactors are to improve safety features , minimise waste output and decrease the construction and operating cost of nuclear reactors . |
| 328 | That is why if researchers can overcome the problem , then the new generation will have energy which is " clean , secure , plentiful , dependable , cost-effective , secure from terrorist attacks and proliferation resistant " . |
| 329 | Moreover , according to Generation VI Reactors ( 2009 ) , all the generation IV reactors will reduce the cost of electricity and produce higher levels of electricity with lower use of fuels compared to previous reactors . |
| 330 | However , we can reduce global warming by using the Generation IV ( Gen IV ) reactor concept nuclear plants . |
| 331 | Hence , the invention of generation IV reactors can both generate electricity in a more efficient way and more fuel-saving way . |
| 332 | There is no doubt that more research and funding should be allocated to generation IV reactors , especially VHTR , which opens a new arena for nuclear energy as VHTR incorporates the safety of nuclear reactors and also provides low cost of nuclear energy for users . |
| 333 | With this fuel , nuclear power plants are no longer vulnerable to some unexpected scenarios , such as wars , natural disasters or economic disorders . |
| 334 | Hence , the GFR system is highly-ranked in sustainability among all the nuclear reactors and this makes it a favorable energy supply in the future . |
| 335 | This is one engineering marvel that prevents floods and helps generate energy in the process . |
| 336 | In fact , it is because of these very reasons that the Generation IV reactors were proposed -- to further improve on the safety aspect of existing reactors . |
| 337 | As a cutting-edge technology , nuclear power should get more support and be on the way to prosperity . |
| 338 | All of these reactors have improved safety precautions and higher security levels to ensure the safety of the public . |
| 339 | Therefore , the selected proposal can hopefully be expected to be environmentally friendly , less energy consuming and safe for use at the same time . |
| 340 | ( Nature Vol 429 , Page 239 , Para.1 ) Hence , by investing in the research of VHTR , there will be less reliance on oil and coal for energy , making the costs of energy usage more stable and affordable . |
| 341 | Besides , the simplified once- thru direct cycle of coolant also helps to increase its efficiency in power generation . |
| 342 | Hence , power surges of the reactor will be minimized , resulting in a decrease in the probability of reactor explosion . |
| 343 | Hence , with more funding directed towards the research and development of the LFR , it may one day become one of the safest forms of energy generator . |
| 344 | This makes the reactor smaller and lighter so that plant controlling and emergency handling will be easy . |
| 345 | Thus , an appropriate fuel cycle , flow , cladding temperature and independent power distribution can be achieved , which ensures the stable and predictable performance of the reactors . |
| 346 | Moreover , renewable energy technologies such as wind , biomass , geothermal and solar energy have proven to be effective in achieving electricity production with small carbon footprints ( MIT , 2009 ) . |
| 347 | Many countries of the world , both industrialized and developing , believe that nuclear energy can be used to meet their demand because of its long-term sustainability and absence of environmental impacts . |
| 348 | It is evident that in the long run , when energy cost for fossil-fueled plants increases continually , using nuclear power for electricity generation is much more economical . |
| 349 | First of all , nuclear power is a sustainable energy source in the long term when developed properly . |
| 350 | It is not only more efficient in generating energy , but also more environmentally friendly than those conventional sources of energy . |
| 351 | However , this societal stigma can be eradicated with the help of time , together with education on nuclear energy . |
| 352 | To conclude , VHTR is not only safe , but it is also more efficient than existing reactors . |
| 353 | On the other hand , the corresponding design of the constructions of the nuclear power plants can prevent nuclear leaks even when disasters occur . |
| 354 | Thus to sum up , nuclear power plants can produce electricity with higher efficiency and in larger amounts compared to fuel or coal burning electricity generating plants . |
| 355 | Secondly , a nuclear reactor , especially the VHTR , produces less waste as compared to other energy sources . |
| 356 | Hence in order to ease current as well as future needs for energy , solar power is one viable source to consider . |
| 357 | Therefore , the VHTR design is safer than current nuclear reactors and less susceptible to nuclear arms proliferation ( Hylko , 2008 ) . |
| 358 | Generation IV reactors are designed to achieve certain goals , some of which involve generating clean and efficient energy , replacing fossil fuel and increasing resource utilization . |
| 359 | As it was powered by electricity , there was less noise . |
| 360 | However , coming up with scrubbers and nitrogen oxide control devices that are more costly but control efficient will definitely reduce a significant amount of pollutant emission . |
| 361 | Its performance in low pressure quality can help to reduce stresses on equipment and less chances of industrial accidents than a high pressure system which induces high stress to the equipment . |
| 362 | Thus , the alternative resources we are searching for must be able to produce this large amount of energy to replace fuels , as well as not emitting that huge amount of harmful gases . |
| 363 | This will also help to produce low-cost electricity as its cost of generating power is lower . |
| 364 | Nowadays , the technology of developing alternative and renewable sources of energy is rapidly gaining popularity due to their many advantages over the traditional sources of energy . |
| 365 | That is because the burning of fuel in VHTR is very efficient ; thus the amount of waste is very little . |
| 366 | In conclusion , nuclear energy brings many advantages to our society . |
| 367 | We can see that the future reactor is much cheaper , safer and more environmental-friendly . |
| 368 | It is also much safer than the current generation reactors and has been well designed to counter any possible error that might occur due to human or technological factors . |
| 369 | Hence the nuclear fuels are contained in a more stable environment . |
| 370 | With safer nuclear reactors , opponents should feel more at ease with them in their country , and hence , more can be built to help in sustaining the energy supply for the future . |
| 371 | In addition , as the design is a fast neutron reactor , it produces excess neutrons which can be used to transmute the nuclear waste into isotopes of shorter half-lives , reducing the toxicity of the waste . |
| 372 | Last but not the least , the consideration of saving energy also accounts for the development of this innovation . |
| 373 | Outdoing the SFR , the VHTR has lower fuel cost and higher hydrogen production due to its high operation temperature , which allows a high burn-up rate of the fuels . |
| 374 | In fact , the new energy is the key to prevent the crisis . |
| 375 | Moreover , with the advancement of technology , nuclear fission and waste disposal of nuclear energy can be assured of safety ( Partha , n.d ) . |
| 376 | Likewise , nuclear energy handled appropriately is an enormous power which could be harnessed for the good of mankind . |
| 377 | In terms of high cost of a reactor , significant cost deduction can be achieved by design improvement , standardisation , better construction methods , reduced construction time and improving project management in building a reactor ( OECD ) , 2005 ) . |
| 378 | The inexpensive fuel cost and the sheer volume of energy produced by a nuclear reactor far outweighs the cost of research and development . |
| 379 | The success of this design eliminates the need for a thick wall vessel and minimizes the risks of explosion of nuclear reactors . |
| 380 | Besides , building fewer reactors and lengthening their lifetime save money as well as natural resources such as land . |
| 381 | Because of its safety , no waste and high output , I support funding for its further research and development . |
| 382 | With the technological advancement in nuclear power in mind , nuclear accidents and disasters would be a thing in the past as nuclear power plants will become safer in their operations . |
| 383 | It can do very well in converting nuclear power to electricity efficiently . |
| 384 | However , if we use natural energy , we can not only reduce the emission of green house gas , but also save our resources . |
| 385 | In contrast , nuclear power can replace traditional energy resources very well . |
| 386 | Besides , considering the energy crisis we are facing nowadays , using nuclear energy is really a useful as well as practical method to handle the energy crisis . |
| 387 | This quality can solve the resource shortage problem of the majority of energy supply methods . |
| 388 | Although we still could not tell whether such accidents would happen in the future , the Very- High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) , one of the very recent concepts of the generation IV nuclear reactors , can possibly be a promising plan for the nuclear energy innovation because of its safe design , small environmental impact and relatively low cost . |
| 389 | However , after looking at the advantages the LFR has over the VHTR in theory , I believe that the LFR will be a better reactor than the VHTR with its predicted flexibility in its scale of operation , low cost and better security . |
| 390 | One current LFR research , SSTAR ( Small , Sealed , Transportable , Autonomous Reactor ) offers a good solution in minimizing the capital cost of building a nuclear reactor . |
| 391 | In addition , nuclear power plants offer life-cycle cost advantage over other energy resources ( Perera , 2004 ) . |
| 392 | Very High Temperature Reactors concept , which is based on the lowest risk technology developed , achieves the need for commercial functional requirements to provide an economically competitive nuclear energy ( Idaho National Library , n.d ) . |
| 393 | ( U. S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION , 1998 ) Thus , with these years of experience in improving the safety aspects of nuclear energy , the new design is deemed to be safe to provide service to mankind . |
| 394 | Hopefully , through the realization of these studies , the danger of nuclear reactors ' operation will be reduced . |
| 395 | In rebuttal to the " limited lifespan " of the nuclear plant , in sixty years , this nuclear plant will have produced much cheaper electricity and caused less harm to the environment . |
| 396 | It has significantly decreased the environmental impact of energy generation . |
| 397 | Moreover , nuclear energy is environmentally friendly because it has very low emission of green house gases . |
| 398 | The waste produced by it can be recycled and reused to reduce the radiation influence to the environment and our society ; as a result , cost will be also reduced on the whole . |
| 399 | In fact , comparing to coal fired and natural gas fire , though nuclear plant initially is expensive to build but it is less expensive to run and has more proven longer-term benefits . |
| 400 | Supporters claim that a nuclear plant is more cost efficient as compared to the current fossil fuel plants . |
| 401 | Due to the nature of MSR , its waste has a lower amount of radioactivity , is safer due to passive cooling up to any size and has very low fuel usage . |
| 402 | Nuclear energy also offers higher electric power efficiencies than the current power production . |
| 403 | Therefore , VHTR makes a cleaner Nuclear Energy . |
| 404 | As a result , this design improves the safety of the SCWR . |
| 405 | Furthermore , alternative and renewable fuels are less expensive than fossil fuels . |
| 406 | Considering the efficiency , sustainability , and environmental friendliness of a nuclear power plant , these benefits far outweighs the small economic disadvantages |
| 407 | This implies that to build an MSR could be smaller than other reactor concepts and that the efficiency of thermal power output would be higher ( Forsberg , 2004 ) . |
| 408 | In contrast to public opinion on the adverse effect of building a nuclear power plant , the latest generation IV reactor , Very-High-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) , is designed to overcome these problems faced by the public . |
| 409 | It will not only mitigate the consequences of global warming , but also help lessen the world 's thirst for fuel for a long period . |
| 410 | " [ 4 ] In addition , using the VHTR to produce energy would reduce the economic costs spent on controlling carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels . |
| 411 | However , the public usually forgets the fact that nuclear power can actually be a rich source of energy and is able to have a substantial effect on the reduction of cost and environmental pollution . |
| 412 | DOE Nuclear Energy Research Advisory Committee , 2009 ) .Thus , VHTR is less harmful to the environment . |
| 413 | However this additional safety cost incurred would be well spent if the threat of nuclear proliferation can be obliterated . |
| 414 | However , several analyses have shown that the life-cycle emissions are far less than those of coal or natural gas-fired power plants ( Nuclear Energy : A key tool in reducing greenhouse gas emissions , n. d ) . |
| 415 | However , in a long term , nuclear reactor plants will reduce the cost compared with fossil reactor plants . |
| 416 | VHTR is one of the best substitutions for coal plants from a science perspective as it does not pollute the earth and it does not need to use as much fuel as other forms of energy . |
| 417 | Similarly , the GFR system offers significant potential to advance generation IV sustainability goals through its thermal efficiency , direct energy conversion , safety arrangement and proper cost . |
| 418 | The absence of a change in phase would also make the reactors safer to operate . |
| 419 | So , using graphite increases the efficiency of the usage of uranium and reduces the loss of energy . |
| 420 | It is a remarkable benefit of nuclear energy compared to other developing kinds of energy like solar energy and wind power . |
| 421 | However , according to the research done by the experts , the very high temperature reactor will be designed such that the generation cost will be competitive when compared with other energy sources and the capital investment cost will be low enough for a large number of countries . |
| 422 | In relation to the safety aspect , it is through such synthesis that safety will always be improving because better solutions to safety problems are generated . |
| 423 | In essence , nuclear reactors , especially the VHTR , are more cost effective in the long run as compared to other energy sources . |
| 424 | Nuclear reactors can produce cleaner and higher energy than crude oil . |
| 425 | If we can support and fund nuclear energy for future development , it will enhance the speed of economic development . |
| 426 | First , if the government fosters research and development in the nuclear industry , the cost for building and maintaining the new nuclear power plant will be affordable . |
| 427 | In my point of view , using nuclear energy is the right way to meet today 's increasing energy demand , due to its high efficiency and environmental emission . |
| 428 | In conclusion , because of the above simple design features and proven technology basis , it is possible to run the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor at relatively low cost . |
| 429 | Thanks to the improvement of the core design , less average core density will be required so that the possibility of devastating accidents such as the core melting down will become extremely slim . Moreover , because of the dedicated moderator of the SCWR , the boiling crisis of coolants under normal operating conditions can also be eliminated . |
| 430 | It is reasonable to choose Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor instead of Very High Temperature Reactor since SFR has a narrower technology gap , safer and more environmentally friendly , can achieve a high efficiency rate and has the potential to be developed to reach a higher efficiency level beyond the hypothesis . |
| 431 | Depending on the methods used for generating electricity in electric cars , they have the capability of producing very low emission of carbon dioxide . |
| 432 | The cost for VHTR including fuels and materials , reactor systems , balance of plant , safety , design & evaluation and fuel cycle is relatively low . |
| 433 | In this case , reducing the undesirable emissions of mainly carbon dioxide , sulphur dioxide and the oxides of nitrogen will provide environmentally friendlier energy . |
| 434 | Practical advantages of MSR 's high temperature low pressure cooling result in higher efficiency in removing heat from the core ( Fosberg 2004 ) . |
| 435 | Generation IV nuclear reactor concepts offer significant enhancements in sustainability , safety and reliability and economics over currently energy production technologies . |
| 436 | For the present , nuclear energy is gradually playing an increasingly vital role in energy supply due to its high efficiency and abundant raw materials . |
| 437 | Moreover , compared to the increasingly expensive fossil fuels , it is reasonable to use nuclear energy . |
| 438 | To conclude , nuclear energy is relatively cheap , environmentally and socially responsible , and safe to use . |
| 439 | New plants are easier to build and maintain , thus reducing construction cost . |
| 440 | It is true that the cost of developing the Generation IV reactors will result in a cheaper price tag when building future nuclear reactors . |
| 441 | Our next step will be to innovate generation IV reactors which are cheaper , safer and cleaner compared with the current nuclear reactors . |
| 442 | " Nuclear Power Is Efficient and Safe for the Environment . |
| 443 | The higher efficiency if this reactor design together with the recycling of wastes , means that the same amount of fuel will produce many times more the electricity than that produced by the conventional reactor . |
| 444 | Nuclear power is nowadays universally acknowledged as a clean and economical energy source , and it is needed to reduce the reliance on fossil fuels which are limited due to geographical reasons and environmental concerns . |
| 445 | Compared with other kinds of power generation , nuclear energy is relatively cost competitive and eco-friendly . |
| 446 | The fuel used in the VHTR produces a large amount of energy when burnt , thus reducing the amount of fuel burnt . |
| 447 | In contrast , with the new SCWR , it is possible to decrease its cost since it is cheaper to build than existing nuclear reactors in the United States which consist of the Pressurized Water Reactors and Boiled Water Reactors . |
| 448 | In generation IV , in supercritical-water-cooled reactor ( SCWR ) , many parts can be cut from the design compared to previous light water reactor ( LWR ) , thus reducing construction cost . |
| 449 | But the generation IV reactors that are currently under research and development have been greatly improved and hence they are much safer than conventional plants . |
| 450 | Furthermore , the cost of the SCWR which is lower compared to existing LWR reactors also plays an important role in further research on Generation IV reactors . |
| 451 | In terms of safety , SFR is safer because of its necessary condition , like temperature and pressure , to operate and the waste it produces . |
| 452 | Economically , the price of electricity generated from radioactive fuel would be much lower than that generated from fossil fuel due to the enormous energy churned out from fission reaction . |
| 453 | In addition , considering the development of advanced materials in the further research of molten salt reactor , the actual amount of materials needed in the building can be reduced , thus reducing overall cost . |
| 454 | Due to its huge energy production and no emission of carbon dioxide , many nuclear power plants have been built . |
| 455 | In addition , we have developed many important features to improve the safety of a reactor . |
| 456 | Without energy , the advantages of technology that we are enjoying now would vanish . |
| 457 | In conclusion , more research and development of Generation IV nuclear power plant should be done as the many benefits of nuclear power clearly outweigh the disadvantages in many important factors such as cost efficiency , safety issues and environmental friendliness . |
| 458 | In contrast , alternative and renewable fuels produce significantly less carbon-based pollutants . |
| 459 | The disadvantages of nuclear power energy can be further reduced by research and development in nuclear technology . |
| 460 | In conclusion , it is clear that the usage of nuclear energy is beneficial to the future . |
| 461 | With advanced technology and engineering designs , the safety of nuclear reactors will be ensured . |
| 462 | with the increasing demand of energy , only nuclear energy is the correct choice as it has so many advantages as compared with other kinds of energies . |
| 463 | In conclusion , nuclear power is most preferred as an energy source in terms of its performance and efficiency . |
| 464 | As long as we use it wisely and efficiently , I believe that nuclear power greatly surpasses other type of energies . |
| 465 | Nuclear reactants have helped improve the situation in recent years . |
| 466 | A clean energy source like nuclear power seems to be the ideal solution for the energy crisis . |
| 467 | MSR has many advantages such being cost-effective , minimize the danger of disposal and it has a nearly perfect safety precaution which reduce accident rates greatly . |
| 468 | These reactors are capable of consuming existing nuclear waste in the production of electricity , and prevent nuclear waste from accumulating . |
| 469 | Its wide ranges of benefits especially in term of security and efficiency have definitely improved human lives when used appropriately . |
| 470 | It is thus inevitable that nuclear power is much more cost efficient as we look towards the future . |
| 471 | If technical hurdles involved in building the next generation of reactors can be solved by scientists and engineers , then we can get secure , inexpensive , and abundant energy . |
| 472 | ( Union Carbide Corporation , 2001 ) However , as time goes by , new reactor concepts have been developed and the aspects of safety and performance have been improved . |
| 473 | Secondly , nuclear energy is clean and helps in preventing global warming . |
| 474 | Politically , the nuclear power will maintain their energy source independence and reduce the conflicts of energy possessing . |
| 475 | Hence , in my opinion , using a large amount of nuclear power as an energy resource can bring about human benefits . |
| 476 | In this way it reduces the threat that the wastes would be used for developing nuclear weapons . |
| 477 | Therefore , we can tap on the use of safer nuclear energy earlier . |
| 478 | There are many different green energy sources such as solar energy , turbine generated energy from wave and wind , but nuclear energy , especially the Very High Temperature Reactor , can be the most reliable source of energy in the future when security , safety and cost of nuclear power could be resolved . |
| 479 | The benefits of Hydrogen will help move us to a sustainable energy economy. ( n.d. ) . |
| 480 | In conclusion , nuclear power should be pursued based on improved designs of nuclear reactors such as the ITER and for its environmental friendliness and to reduce global warming . |
| 481 | With increased research and development along with adoption of nuclear power generation by more countries , the cost will be reduced even further . |
| 482 | With consideration of the current worldwide energy shortage , population expansion and global warming , it is appealing to bring about the generation IV nuclear power supply using GFR concept for its tremendous energy output and zero carbon emission . |
| 483 | With the appearance of the generation IV reactors , it will become more and more clean , efficient and safe . |
| 484 | In conclusion , SCWR reactor excels in performance , cost and safety . |
| 485 | ( Gen IV Reactors , 2009 ) Furthermore , MSR 's fuel doubling up as its coolant due to the good heat transportation properties of molten salts further reduces the waste produced . |
| 486 | Among the diverse energy sources , solar power has the brightest prospect for its non-pollution , safety and infinitude . |
| 487 | I believe the high efficiency and high level of safety VHTR will eliminate people 's dependence on fossil fuel one day , becoming the next generation energy ! |
| 488 | Nuclear energy is the ultimate solution as a clean and renewable energy source to curb the escalating greenhouse effect and depletion of fossil fuels . |
| 489 | While some may be skeptical on tapping nuclear power due to various issues , the new SCWR will alleviate their concerns if there is continual research and development funding for the design to materialize . |
| 490 | Nuclear power technology is expected to provide clean and sufficient energy in the future . |
| 491 | However , if the effectiveness of both energy use and production can be improved , enormous amount of energy could be saved . |
| 492 | Using eco- friendly cars would reduce the carbon emissions per car drastically . |
| 493 | Therefore , with economy of scale , the cost of installing and maintaining the VHTR increases less than proportionately with the plants ' generating capacity due to its high efficiency . |
| 494 | With the exponential increase in energy consumption , nuclear energy will prove to be a good alternative , or even a primary source of energy . |
| 495 | It is also relatively cleaner to the environment as compared to other sources of fuels . |
| 496 | This method allows us to combat global warming easily and fastest compared to many other solutions . |
| 497 | Another advantage is that it costs less than conventional power generation and heating . |
| 498 | It is also good that we diversify our energy sources to booster our energy security . |
| 499 | Having little restrictions on the construction site , the cost of building a nuclear plant is lowered , making it more competitive economically . |
| 500 | With the fast growth of Earth 's population , the demand for nuclear power is rapidly increasing because of its higher efficiency in producing electricity among the non greenhouse-gas-emitting sources . |
| 501 | In comparison with burning fossil fuels , it has to be said that nuclear power is far more environmentally-friendly . |
| 502 | The reasons are that VHTR addresses the worries of public against nuclear power , such as safety , pollution and cost and performance issues . |
| 503 | With both recycled fuel and higher efficiency , the MSR saves cost making it cost saving in the long term . |
| 504 | In this way , the energy consumed by the wire will be saved . |
| 505 | Energy from the sun 's rays is known to be very environmentally friendly as it is a clean form of energy . |
| 506 | With the absence of any major accidents involving these nuclear reactors , we can safely conclude that the usage of SCWR is more secured than the new concepts of power plants , for which their technology is yet to be fully enhanced . |
| 507 | As a result , many scientists have turned to nuclear energy and are doing research on future Generation IV reactors which are safer and have higher productivity . |
| 508 | In order to make full use of the advantages of nuclear energy , the primary task for engineers is to improve its safety . |
| 509 | To sum up , the Generation reactors have made great improvements compared to the older generation ones in terms of both technology and safety features . |
| 510 | Therefore , VHTR is operating safer compared to other reactors . |
| 511 | Nuclear Power Is Efficient and Safe for the Environment . |
| 512 | In short , I believe that with further research , the efficiency of the nuclear power can be increased , making it a potential energy resource in the future . |
| 513 | With more research and investment in nuclear technology , the SFR can become a viable energy source in the future . |
| 514 | The success of this reactor suggests that more advanced temperature-resistant materials can be developed in the near future . |
| 515 | We can use this kind of reactors to solve our energy problems . |
| 516 | Furthermore Generation IV reactors use different fuels and coolants than previous generators . The new reactors are built to be more efficient in absorbing heat through using better coolants , with improved circulation and larger containment structures . |
| 517 | Such reductions would bring benefits in the radioactive waste disposal requirements associated with the system and enhance its non-proliferation attributes . |
| 518 | However , in fact , to do long-term perspective , nuclear power would be relatively less costly . |
| 519 | This has helped to eliminate the amount of greenhouse gas emission and hence reduced air pollution to the environment . |
| 520 | While comparing the two solutions , it is found that alternate sources of energy like wind energy , hydroelectric energy or nuclear energy significantly reduce the amount of greenhouse gas produced . |
| 521 | Therefore , the development of the Generation IV reactors will surely benefit mankind and help with energy demands of the future . |
| 522 | Lastly , SCWR gives a low cost of production of energy . |
| 523 | Furthermore , the nuclear power plants require less land area when compared with other energy sources . |
| 524 | However , the " inherent safety features of the fuel and reactor " make VHTR more reliable CITATION SMM03 \ l 2052 ( Modro , 2003 ) . |
| 525 | One advanced benefit from this system is its low pressure so that the reactor wall can handle good protection . |
| 526 | This would lessen the possibilities for power shortage accidents to occur . |
| 527 | The improved efficiency is able to reduce fuel waste and emission thus reducing the cost by 50 % . |
| 528 | Therefore , the VHTR system has the positive potential of reducing the rising rate of the oil fuel and resolving the problem of the energy shortage . |
| 529 | Secondly , due to its higher efficiency , such facilities will help reduce operational costs and subsequently decrease the cost of living for citizens . |
| 530 | Another way to improve the economy would be through the designing of new forms of energy sources . |
| 531 | New plants are designed to be much simpler and quicker to build , reducing financing costs by potentially hundreds of millions of dollars . |
| 532 | Automation throughout the reactors and passive safety features are just some of the technologies implemented to make the Generation IV reactors safer . |
| 533 | First and foremost , renewable fuels are much more environmentally friendly compared with fossil fuels . |
| 534 | Moreover , GFR is more environmental friendly as it has an advanced recycling technology that reduces the number of waste as compare with the VHTR . |
| 535 | Nuclear fuel can last longer than fossil fuel in power production and can provide much more energy . |
| 536 | In addition , nuclear power is cheaper than alternative energy ( Wald , 2008 ) . |
| 537 | Henceforth , nuclear power has limitless potentials for us to look into and the cost of its usage is fairly cheap . |
| 538 | In summary , VHTR will solve the nuclear waste problems if it is implemented as a Generation IV reactor . |
| 539 | Nuclear power can be very clean and can generate large quantities of electrical power . |
| 540 | This satisfies the need as electricity can be generated from renewable sources of energy like solar and wind energy . |
| 541 | This feature would also immensely reduce its threat of being a terrorism target , enhancing the physical protection of the reactor . |
| 542 | Since nuclear power plants do not release any harmful materials , nuclear energy is ideal . |
| 543 | This means that the technology is already quite well established and thus less time is needed to research on the basic technology that will be used in VHTR as compared to the other power plants that may involve the use of totally new technologies . |
| 544 | To conclude , engineering a new design of environmentally friendly hybrid car helps to reduce pollution by using green fuels such as electric and solar power . |
| 545 | In the design of environmental-friendly cars , it must be in such a way that the designed car would be less polluting than the existing ones , coupled with lower price and better performance . |
| 546 | As the search for a new source of clean energy is mounting due to the depletion of fossil fuels , nuclear energy comes into focus as one of the most reliable and efficient replacement alternative fuel . |
| 547 | It has the larger thermal efficiency and lower cost of expense and time . |
| 548 | Besides being safe and economic , nuclear power is also environmental friendly as it does not produce any greenhouse gases such as Carbon Dioxide in the case of fossil fuel burning plants . |
| 549 | A generally acknowledged fact of clean energy is another important advantage for nuclear energy . |
| 550 | Compared to a molten salt reactor , VHTR has a simpler design and this leads to another advantage which is its high feasibility . |
| 551 | Nuclear power became one of their choices , since it is clean and efficient . |
| 552 | Furthermore , compared to other energy resources like gasoline and natural gas , which produces greenhouse gases , nuclear energy is much more environmental friendly . |
| 553 | Another group of people thinks the sodium cooled reactor will cause less problems to the materials than the VHTR . |
| 554 | Therefore , this reactor has multiple benefits apart from mere electricity output and may be a better choice to contemplate . |
| 555 | Furthermore , MSRs being closed fuel cycle nuclear reactors ( World nuclear Association , August 2009 ) reprocessing takes place minimizing nuclear waste . |
| 556 | Some evidence shows the sodium-cooled fast reactor can reduce the cost of the raw material by changing the materials used . |
| 557 | This is because the VHTR is much safer due to its superior design and " proliferation-proof " process . |
| 558 | From my point of view , I agree with the continuous research and development on the Very-High-Temperature-Reactor ( VHTR ) , which is one of the generation IV concepts , because it is the technology that brings us solutions to the current energy crisis . |
| 559 | Lastly , despite conventional beliefs that nuclear power causes pollution , the truth is that the VHTR actually produces less carbon emission as compared to power plants fueled by coal or natural gases . |
| 560 | It is evident that the funding in the area of research and development of SWCR will provide benefits in the aspects of security , performance and environment . |
| 561 | Switching from gasoline vehicles to the 'zero-emission ' electric vehicles will significantly reduce the carbon emission of these countries , hence the resurgence of electric vehicles and their technologies . |
| 562 | From these numbers , it is obvious that the performance of nuclear plants is sufficient to support the consumption of a large population , which helps the nations lacking in natural resources be independent of coal or oil import . |
| 563 | The ultra-long lifetime lowers the average cost of building a reactor . |
| 564 | With further research , it is possible that the cost of VHTR can be lowered further and will appeal as a better alternative to existing nuclear systems . |
| 565 | Thus , the reactor can function safely within a greater range of temperature . |
| 566 | Furthermore , the issue of global warming also arises and nuclear power would help reduce the greenhouse gases that cause global warming . |
| 567 | Firstly , using solar cars could effectively reduce the emission of greenhouse gases , especially carbon dioxide . |
| 568 | Hence , problems such as nuclear waste is harder to process , can be solved with sufficient funding for research and development of nuclear power plants . |
| 569 | With the need for energy increasing rapidly nowadays , nuclear energy is drawing much more attention due to its huge power and non-emission of greenhouse gas . |
| 570 | The cogeneration and applications make the total efficiency even higher , thus further reducing the operating costs . |
| 571 | Energy generated by VHTR is abundant , inexpensive , safe and reliable . |
| 572 | With cheaper energy , more people are able to afford electricity . |
| 573 | Hopefully , it will not be long before the nuclear power 's new dawn and the VHTR is on its way , leading generation IV reactors to serve human beings and finally solving the energy shortage problem . |
| 574 | In addition , the new SFR will be equipped with a better coolant system to prevent a reactor meltdown and stronger containment structures to guard against terrorist attacks ( Smith , 2009 ) . |
| 575 | Because designing a new industrial system or product which works more efficiently with less energy consumption is a complicated process , sufficient analysis of information is rhus needed . |
| 576 | So the overall simple design of the SCWR will also cut down construction cost . |
| 577 | This is because of the need of electricity of humans and the relatively low maintaining fees for VHTR . |
| 578 | For this very low rate of construction and maintenance we get a good amount of electricity for a lot of people . |
| 579 | MSR 's high temperature , low pressure cooling technologies will ensure a safe operation . |
| 580 | This new design also reduces complexity and minimizes risks of system failure ( Gauthier et al. , 2004 , p. 9 ) . |
| 581 | Nuclear power technology is much more well-rounded and practical technology when compared to solar power or bio-power technology . |
| 582 | The radioactive waste can also be sustainably used in the fuel cycle with reduction of environmental burden . |
| 583 | Therefore , nuclear energy is safe to be used as an alternate energy . |
| 584 | Moreover , generation IV nuclear reactors are much more efficient than those of generation III because of the higher energy conversion rate that they have to offer . |
| 585 | Firstly , nuclear power is superior to other energy resources due to its cost-efficiency . |
| 586 | With less energy used , costs of living are reduced and the economy would improve with more people having more money to spend . |
| 587 | Such reductions would bring benefits in the radioactive waste disposal requirements associated with the system and enhance its non-proliferation attributes " |
| 588 | In such a context , nuclear energy created by using the Generation IV ( Gen IV ) reactor is able to replace fossil fuel , which is believed to be the main cause of global warming . |
| 589 | Further research and development and funding for generation IV reactors such as the Molten Salt Reactor ( MSR ) have benefits outweighing the disadvantages with respect to security , cost and environmental concerns . |
| 590 | Moreover , the introduction of this concept will produce electricity that is as cheap as those produced by coal and gas . |
| 591 | Compared to solar plants , nuclear plants actually produce less carbon dioxide . |
| 592 | In addition , as described in Nuclear Power 's New Dawn , all the wastes and byproducts created by the generation IV reactor can be recycled to minimize its damage to both mankind and the environment , and the very-high-temperature reactor is even designed to achieve the goal of zero-emission ! |
| 593 | The only advantage is that the factories have high efficiency resources resulting in less pollution . |
| 594 | With the green house effect threatening to cause severe climatic changes , it is really wise to switch from burning fossil fuels to nuclear fuel.Research still proceeds everyday in perfecting this . Maybe several years from now there will be an even more efficient way to tap the nuclear energy . |
| 595 | Therefore , the VHTR can be said to be much safer than nuclear reactors of the past . |
| 596 | In conclusion , the advantages of nuclear power plants have outweighed the dangers involved . |
| 597 | The current proposal uses the Brayton cycle which has advantages such as lower cost and improved efficiency . |
| 598 | Without a doubt , the solar-panel powered vehicle would outweigh with exceptional advantages over the conventional gasoline powered vehicle , such as , zero emission and zero refueling , going green and saving the Earth from global warming . |
| 599 | However , the SCWR can be installed not only within a shorter period but also by fewer workers , which will dramatically save the fixed costs of plant construction . |
| 600 | VHTR has the advantage of meticulous safety designs , small environmental impact and relatively low cost . |
| 601 | On the other hand , the safety design factor come from the endeavour to overcome currents difficulties : heat- resistant fuels and materials , high fuel burn-ups , and temperature control . |
| 602 | This could eliminate the toxicity of the radioactive substances and the heat produced by the waste by converting it to low-lived fission products . |
| 603 | " Global warming and rising energy needs are rehabilitating the concept of nuclear power . |
| 604 | Thus , with the creation of battery technology generated by electricity , mankind can place greater confidence in new technology to combat environmental issues . |
| 605 | Therefore , some high-efficient , sufficient and environment-friendly energy is urged . |
| 606 | The safety performance of nuclear plant has improved through the years . |
| 607 | According to another report , nuclear power accidents have also caused fewer deaths than accidents related to other forms of energy ( World Nuclear Association , 2009 ) . |
| 608 | Thus by combining the nuclear fission and fusion , the waste produced will be less and less radioactive . |
| 609 | Environmentalists would often suggest the use of alternative energy such as wind , hydroelectric , thermal and solar energies as these energies are known to have little emissions of any kind of pollutants . |
| 610 | Through taking a look at the current energy situation and analyzing the special advantages of VHTR , a Generation 4 nuclear reactor , it should be evident that the VHTR concept is advanced and VHTR will be useful to actual circumstances . |
| 611 | It is also a relatively economical and yet efficient source of energy . |
| 612 | Nuclear energy can be utilized to relieve the world 's demand for depleting fossil fuel . |
| 613 | Small Nuclear Self-contained power plants could supply growing energy demand in poor countries . |
| 614 | But with the use of sophisticated technology , generation IV reactors are safer . |
| 615 | This recycling system makes it more environmentally-friendly than other reactors . |
| 616 | We may cut the cost spending using nuclear waste when we use VHTR . |
| 617 | It has a closed cycle and high operating temperature in order to increase the efficiency and lower the radioactive waste . |
| 618 | If technology could help to automate the reactors , then the number of operators required will be reduced and by doing R&D , the parts could have a longer lifespan and hence expenditure of replacing parts will be much lowered . |
| 619 | Nuclear power , as a powerful new energy , stands out with its high energy-generating potential and relatively low emission of green house gas , such as carbon dioxide . |
| 620 | It is deemed to be much cleaner , greener and more effective than traditional fossil fuels . |
| 621 | Thus , the sum of all the various costs of producing nuclear power is relatively lower than other sources of energy . |
| 622 | Implementing this reactor for power production is an achievable goal to set for a sooner transformation to nuclear power . |
| 623 | In thermal performance , both reactors have good features especially for energy conversion however , the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor may have additional advantages . |
| 624 | VHTP will use this kind of fuel , thus reducing the cost . |
| 625 | Moreover , the system of circulating molten salt fuel mixture can reduce the operation cost considerably which provide MSR another advantage |
| 626 | And because of high-efficiency and cleanliness , nuclear power is coming back into human consideration . |
| 627 | Such designs are able to slow down neutrons to control the nuclear chain reaction ; thus the reactivity can be controlled in a reasonable range and explosions can be prevented . |
| 628 | Nevertheless , with the high cost and the inadequately safe nuclear technology that we have now , convincing people to embrace nuclear power will not be possible without safer and cheaper technology . |
| 629 | Most nuclear reactors involve the use of the fast breeder technique but the MSRs use a technology known as slow breeder or thorium fuel cycle breeder which has been proven to be less expensive ( Forsberg CW , 2007 ) . |
| 630 | In conclusion , replacing traditional cars by solar cars can effectively control the deterioration of global warming , but further improvements are needed to widely popularize the use of these cars . |
| 631 | This would mean a relatively safer work environment in addition to the low operating pressure conditions . |
| 632 | It uses advanced materials and innovative design options to reduce power plant capital cost and lower operating cost . |
| 633 | Furthermore , VHTR produces less radioactive waste compared to other proposed reactors . |
| 634 | In conclusion , the VHTR has its own safety features , such as very high system temperature , enhanced reliability , low system pressure and so on . |
| 635 | Thus , the implementation of nuclear energy to generate electricity should be encouraged . |
| 636 | In comparison to older generation reactors , Generation IV reactors will have better safety and cost effective features . |
| 637 | As such , there is a pressing need to search for alternative renewable forms and energy which is comparatively more eco-friendly and highly effective . |
| 638 | Since it is hard to create a technology which is 100 percent safe , if nuclear engineers can overcome this problem , the world will have new energy which is cheap , clean , safe and proliferation resistant . |
| 639 | It is developed to improve the performance of previous generations of reactors . |
| 640 | That means SFR is able to meet the economic requirements of different situations better than other reactors . |
| 641 | To achieve nuclear safety furthermore , we also need to develop high-quality design & construction and invent equipment to prevent operational disturbances developing into problems . |
| 642 | Both of these make it cheaper to build nuclear plants . |
| 643 | From this it can be seen that the uranium can produce more energy per kilogram and it can partly solve the issue concerning limitation of energy resources . |
| 644 | Technically , it is possible to avoid a meltdown given that the new Generation IV has an advanced safety system in place . |
| 645 | On the contrary , the balance of SCWR plant design utilizes a relatively simple direct cycle power conversion system , which also allows for the incorporation of passive safety features . |
| 646 | Finally , under normal operation , nuclear power plants are environmentally-friendly . |
| 647 | Nuclear fusion reactions are believed to be much safer than fission reactions and appear potentially viable , though technically it is difficult for them to take place . |
| 648 | Furthermore , the accidents due to high temperatures can be prevented with sufficient safety measures in place . |
| 649 | From the above , on the one hand , the worries of opponents of nuclear reactors being built all can be solved by scientists and engineers ; on the other hand , energy needs of the society and the development of the related technologies have made it possible for VHTR to come true . |
| 650 | It is a simplified model of the light water reactor which is very efficient in providing electricity . |
| 651 | Furthermore , energy- saving appliances designed by engineers have saved inestimable energy for the world . |
| 652 | Since reprocessing of nuclear waste can eminently reduces raw fuel input and conserves the world 's uranium supplies ( ) , opponents might argue that the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.gen-4.org/Technology/systems/gfr.htm ] ( GFR ) , { Molten Salt Reactor } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.gen-4.org/Technology/systems/msr.htm ] ( MSR ) , { Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.gen-4.org/Technology/systems/sfr.htm ] ( SFR ) , and LFR offer better performance with the adoption of reprocessing ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 653 | Independent from the weather and a more proven technique , the promising Generation IV reactor , SCWRs enable nuclear power as the most promising energy source . |
| 654 | Therefore , scientists and engineers are placing high hopes on the new generation of nuclear reactors which are seen as a clean source of energy without emission of green-house gases . |
| 655 | Building of the VHTR means that countries will no longer need to depend on fossil fuels as a source of energy and the emission of greenhouse gases will also be greatly reduced . |
| 656 | Although the cost of building a nuclear power plant is much higher than that of a traditional power plant , some evidence shows that it 's possible to reduce the price difference . |
| 657 | Hence , it has to have relatively lower operating costs to stay competitive with fossil fuel reactors . |
| 658 | However , nowadays , a nuclear reactor contains many safety features , such as automatic shutdown of the fission process by insertion of control rods , emergency water-cooling for the core in case of pipeline breakage , and a concrete containment shell which can help prevent accidents . |
| 659 | But SWCR is much safer and reliable compared with the old reactors . |
| 660 | It not only decreases the world 's dependency on fuel oils to generate electricity , but also acts as an environment protector . |
| 661 | The very high temperature reactor , being one of the possible systems of new generation power which aims to achieve improvements in economic competitiveness , nuclear safety , is promising to be implemented in the future . |
| 662 | And the cost of building VHTR is likely to decrease since the technology and knowledge is improved . |
| 663 | But from my point of view , I believe nuclear energy can bring much more benefits than those lost . |
| 664 | The objective of GIF is to produce electricity at a lower cost by using nuclear reactor with the least threat to the society . |
| 665 | The tool should be sufficient to reduce the cost and enhance the efficiency . |
| 666 | However , once the basic infrastructure has been laid down , nuclear power turns into a readily accessible and cheaply recoverable source of energy ( European Physical Society , 2007 ) . |
| 667 | Nuclear energy : A key tool in reducing greenhouse gas emissions . |
| 668 | The nuclear waste of the GCFR is able to be put back into the process multiple times , and this reduces the nuclear waste produced . |
| 669 | Lastly , the gas cooled fast reactor is committed to becoming a sustainable form of nuclear power . |
| 670 | Therefore , I believe that nuclear power plant is very much safer than it was in the past . |
| 671 | In conclusion , VHTR is much safer , more environmental friendly , more efficient and much cheaper . |
| 672 | In the long run , the development of SWCR could also provide solutions to the environmental issues . Ultimately , mankind needs to accept new technology confidently that might bring about unexpected improvements to the world . |
| 673 | Generation IV International Forum reported that " the envisaged SFR capability to efficiently and nearly completely consume trans-uranium as fuel would reduce the actinide loadings in the high-level radioactive waste it produces . |
| 674 | And the increase in safety will make people enjoy the benefits of engineering design products much better . |
| 675 | Nuclear energy will do more good than harm to mankind . |
| 676 | [ Commissariat à l'energie atomique , 2007 ] With this there is a great reduction of nuclear waste , and money can be saved to build a storage site for nuclear waste . |
| 677 | Therefore , it is claimed that nuclear plants are a much safer choice . |
| 678 | Accelerated development of MSRs will result in the US successfully managing the nuclear waste problem and revolutionizing an entire new level of carbon-free energy that can last longer than just centuries . |
| 679 | This greatly reduces the radioactive emissions around the reactor . |
| 680 | Since SCWR is under the category of Generation IV reactors , it is also true that in terms of performance , it would be better than current Generation III reactors . |
| 681 | But if it is to figure in the energy equation , it will need to be cheaper , cleaner and safer " , . |
| 682 | Furthermore , I believe that the generation IV nuclear reactors will be very safe as our technology is improving daily . |
| 683 | Also , the development of Leak before Break method for gas cooled reactor will reduce the risk of leakage . |
| 684 | On the other hand , nuclear energy is much safer than other energy resources . |
| 685 | Also , solar energy is inexhaustible and we can use it without worrying about polluting the atmosphere , which really solves the problem caused by the consumption of fossil fuels . |
| 686 | Research has shown that it is possible to have a nuclear reactor that is cleaner , safer and cheaper ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 687 | Countries going through industrialization will also benefit from the cheap energy . |
| 688 | Furthermore , with the new generation IV nuclear power plants , more energy will be produced , increasing the cost efficiency of nuclear power . |
| 689 | Going nuclear would provide the growing economies with a constant and steady supply of energy to sustain their economic development . |
| 690 | The SCWR has a much simpler design compared to the other chosen reactors , and would be cheaper to build and operate ( Cogeneration Technologies , 2002 ) . |
| 691 | Moreover , LFR has a safety advantage compared to the other nuclear reactors designs . |
| 692 | These concepts overcome many difficulties and make a lot of improvements which can make nuclear power " safe , abundant , reliable , inexpensive and proliferation-resistant " 5 . |
| 693 | VHTR not only solves the nuclear waste problem , but its current wastes are a very valuable source of energy to power VHTR as they can burn plutonium , neptunium and other materials that Generation II and III reactors leave behind ( Smith , 2009 ) . |
| 694 | With this statement , proponents of nuclear power would highlight the economical benefit in generating electricity using nuclear power . |
| 695 | In conclusion , the LFR helps enhance safety of nuclear power stations while not compromising economic factors . |
| 696 | These will put the nuclear reactivity under control . |
| 697 | This helps to minimize the heating effect of the reactor . |
| 698 | Solving the current energy crisis with nuclear power . |
| 699 | In addition , the probabilities of it happening again can be further reduced if we put more effort in research and develop the technology of nuclear energy . |
| 700 | Furthermore , the disparity between the two reactors ( VHTR and SCWR ) in terms of efficiency is not huge . |
| 701 | However , there are solutions provided to avoid nuclear accidents and in fact nuclear energy does not contribute any pollution . |
| 702 | Furthermore , the newer generation of reactors , like the VHTR , produces much less nuclear waste at terror-proof facilities ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 703 | By reducing the carbon emissions from these two sources , we would be able to buy us more time to develop technologies to tackle the global warming issue ; therefore we should develop the VHTR to aid our cause . |
| 704 | Consequently , they help prevent formation of cracks or explosion . |
| 705 | However , as technology has evolved with time , the Generation IV power plants are better in terms of security , cost and performance . |
| 706 | Preventive measures such as spiking the radioactive waste with high heat and reducing the half life of the compound can further minimize terrorist threats and increase public safety . |
| 707 | ( . Besides that , MSR has a lower construction cost as it is smaller compared to other types of nuclear reactors . |
| 708 | ( Hejzlar , 2009 ) Furthermore , it costs less per kWh of electricity compared to SFR . |
| 709 | Although some people argue that this causes energy waste and produces radioactive waste , the lack of reprocessing reduces the cost of the power plant and makes it more affordable since the reprocessing is very expensive . |
| 710 | Nuclear power is one technology that must be increasingly promoted and relied upon if the world is to stabilize carbon emissions at an acceptable level . |
| 711 | This means that nuclear power is the most efficient energy source . |
| 712 | Experts have found a new generation of nuclear reactors which are safer and more effective than the old generation . |
| 713 | Additionally , Nuclear power is cheap compare to fossil fuel and produces little pollutants compare to fossil fuel . |
| 714 | The SFR , due to its relatively low operating temperature and pressure , is much cheaper when it comes to material cost and building ; hence , it has a lower capital cost . |
| 715 | In addition , it is important to note that VHTR is a much safer reactor also because the radioactive content of the fuel is contained even if the reactor reaches temperatures in excess of 500 ° C more than the normal operating temperature ( Norman , 2007 ) . |
| 716 | From all the advantages like the low pressure and temperature condition , almost no radioactive waste and no other byproduct like Hydrogen , it can be seen that SFR is the most promising and advantageous model compared to other reactor concepts and it is worth every dollar spent to pursue deeper research and development . |
| 717 | Opposition claim that the electric car is good as it helps reduce the reducing the rate of greenhouse effects by having no harmful emissions compared to fuel cars , Partha ( 2009 ) said . |
| 718 | Therefore the implementation of the VHTR can offer a wide range of solutions to the fuel crisis that is currently troubling the public . |
| 719 | Fission products are removed and new fuel is added to portions of the fuel at a time , drastically reducing the cost operating the MSR . |
| 720 | It is also able to meet the increasing demand for energy consumption , without the expense of the environment . |
| 721 | While there are public concerns about cost , security and safety issues involved , the new generation IV reactors are proposed to address these areas of concern . |
| 722 | Not only is it safer and more cost efficient , but it also yields the most consistent performance as compared to the other types of nuclear reactors . |
| 723 | Nuclear energy is a promising source of energy that can replace the traditional power that we use nowadays . |
| 724 | Until these concerns are eradicated , other safer and cheaper sources of energy would be preferred ahead of nuclear power . |
| 725 | If the ratio of energy output and all inputs is considered , the rate of return of SCWR is faster than that of the others , not mentioning the low price of the electricity when the design is successful . |
| 726 | Therefore , solar energy being a clean and renewable source of energy will definitely build up its popularity as a popular source that can be used to produce electricity . |
| 727 | However , one of the concepts of the Gen = 4 \ * ROMAN IV reactors , very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) , can solve this problem . |
| 728 | VHTR will be cheaper as cost incurred on transportation of nuclear waste is redundant . |
| 729 | On the other hand , even though the VHTR produces nuclear waste which will emit harmful radioactivity , the industry has come up with effective ways to dispose of the nuclear waste . |
| 730 | Hence , nuclear power is required for social peace and to meet the increasing energy demand . |
| 731 | CITATION Pav09 \ l 2052 ( Tsvetkov ) So the cost of maintenance and fuels for VHTR can be highly reduced compared to other Generation IV reactors . |
| 732 | As it can withstand high temperature , melt-downs will not occur so frequently . |
| 733 | This works in favor of the VHTR , a scenario where a fast response is needed , as the VHTR would be suitable and safer . |
| 734 | However , further comparison of both the reactors based on cost , performance and safety actually revealed ( LFR ) as the better option . |
| 735 | Thus , it will be much easier to put nuclear power plants to work . |
| 736 | The multi-tier idea will definitely increase the intensity of green areas , thus reducing pollution and help to recycle cleaner air for our atmosphere . |
| 737 | With good maintenance practices , time and cost will be save and unplanned shut downs can be reduced . |
| 738 | Once again the solution presents itself in the form of hybrid cars that run more on electricity that can be harnessed from the sun or produced in man-made power stations and cost less than gasoline . |
| 739 | Decay heat will be removed through radiation and convection from distributed channels during accidents , and consequently fuel melting in the core will be prevented . |
| 740 | MSR researchers did intensify research to ensure that it has superior safety standards and fuel cycle qualities than VHTR . |
| 741 | The method of cooling in the MSR is more efficient than the VHTR because if the MSR coolant salt overheats and overflows , the coolant salt will be transported to various storage tanks which are installed with passive decay heat cooling systems , so they are verified to be critically-safe . |
| 742 | For the SFR , the cost can be reduced considerably by using some innovative methods to make a modular design or to remove a primary loop or to integrate the pump and the heat exchanger . |
| 743 | Secondly , the graphite-moderated core with specific design optimizations can reduce the risk of using VHTR . |
| 744 | Nuclear power , an alternative source of electricity , could be the answer to this major problem . |
| 745 | Furthermore , according to engineers of MPR Associates Inc Engineers , the VHTR will be safe and reliable to operate with improved accident management and mitigation and reduced off-side response with little human intervention . |
| 746 | However , as global warming is becoming a more pressing issue , we have now turned to nuclear reactors to provide us clean energy . |
| 747 | SCWR could indeed replace prevalent fossil-fuel reactors by economical standards . |
| 748 | In conclusion , the deployment of Generation IV nuclear power is inevitable and the GFR system should be chosen as the research prototype because of its safety , performance and cost features . |
| 749 | Hence , scientists are researching the fourth generation nuclear reactor which can provide higher power output and at the same time reduce risks . |
| 750 | In such a situation , the appearance of nuclear energy becomes so important , for the nuclear power has great advantages over many conventional energies . |
| 751 | This in turn minimizes potential risks such as core meltdowns . |
| 752 | If more effective policies are formulated and implemented , they will indirectly lower the burden imposed on the younger population and society as a whole . |
| 753 | This process also helps to prevent the existing practice of spending large amounts of money to store the nuclear waste . |
| 754 | One of the reasons why Very High Temperature Reactor is better for funding is because of its safety factor . |
| 755 | But if it is the figure in the energy equation , it will need to be cheaper , cleaner and safer " ( p.238 ) . |
| 756 | Sustainable means that the system should generate power by some natural fuel , while at the same time minimizing its environmental impact . |
| 757 | The present scientific advancements and engineering precision ensure the above mentioned safety feature of the VHTR . |
| 758 | Therefore , it would be easier , safer and even more convincing to put SCWR into use under the guarantee of these practical experiences . |
| 759 | Also , the reactor core is at a lower temperature , and thus relatively easier to manage . |
| 760 | With further research and development , less costly materials could also be introduced or invented for construction without compromising on quality and strength . |
| 761 | The high operating temperature of the core in the VHTR allows emissions-free process . |
| 762 | Hybrid cars solve part of these problems by using more reusable material like plastic , as well as making them lighter and relying more on electricity to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions ( Berman , 2006 ) . |
| 763 | However , in terms of efficiency and economic value , nuclear energy has great advantages over both solar energy and wind force . |
| 764 | Hence , the funds pumped into the development of nuclear power should instead be used in the development of renewable resources that are more cost- effective . |
| 765 | These reactors , still in the designing and testing phase , excel in areas of sustainability , safety , economics and proliferation resistance ( Bouchard and Bennett,2008 ) , all which are specially intended to address all issues and challenges that nuclear power faces in a world combating the production of greenhouse gases , but in the safest possible way . |
| 766 | Without the requirements of cheaper and cleaner vehicle and governmental support , it might not be as well-developed as now . |
| 767 | Therefore , generation IV nuclear reactors such as SCWR are very safe for producing energy . |
| 768 | Hence , affordability and market stability are other factors that propel the development of renewable resources . |
| 769 | On the other hand , the VHTR enhances minimization through fuel recycling . |
| 770 | The GCFR operates at a lower temperature and thus choices of materials are wider and cheaper as compared to the VHTR . |
| 771 | Therefore , the use of VHTR is safe and we can believe in the further development of such GenIV nuclear reactor concepts . |
| 772 | Therefore , we must be able to produce nuclear power at a cost lower than conventional power plants . |
| 773 | To summarize , the VHTR is well worth developing mainly because safety is ensured in its design process . |
| 774 | To solve the complex function of the world 's need for more fuel , the solution lies in , as suggested by scientists and engineers worldwide , the generation IV nuclear reactors , which are capable of generating the power needed at a far more efficient rate compared to the contemporary power plants . |
| 775 | Although making use of nuclear power , water power and solar power seems feasible , there are some reasons that make solar power the most appropriate . |
| 776 | Indeed , nuclear reactors have their own advantages on both cost and performance . |
| 777 | Therefore , the VHTR is the one which is the most likely to achieve the vision of " safe , abundant , reliable , inexpensive and proliferation resistant " nuclear power . |
| 778 | In a fast reactor , it optimises the high speeds of the neutrons instead . |
| 779 | However , it is safer , cleaner and considered more environment friendly . |
| 780 | A more efficient way of generating renewable energy needs to be developed in order to lower the market price . |
| 781 | It is also important to note that if SFR 's research on the reactivity of sodium is successful , a better cost saving SFR power plant can be built ( Zhao , 2009 ) . |
| 782 | On top of its technological readiness , SFR is designed for high efficiency as well . |
| 783 | As for the solar energy panel , the situation is better . |
| 784 | VHTR produces " less heavy metal radioactive waste " and " less plutonium per unit of energy produced " because of VHTR 's high thermal efficiency ( Shropshire and Herring , 2004 ) .It has a high thermal efficiency of over 50 % , while other reactors only have a thermal efficiency of 33 % -50 % ( U.S . |
| 785 | In conclusion , we can see that even though there are some disadvantages of the nuclear power plant , it is still beneficial to the public if we operate it in the long run . |
| 786 | Increasing energy needs and global warming are restoring the idea of nuclear power . |
| 787 | The use of low temperature means LFR can actually be built using the current technology , though some improvements may be needed . |
| 788 | Nuclear energy benefits human beings |
| 789 | In order to sustain stable development for the next generation , people are paying more attention to building an eco-friendly society which makes energy usage reach its optimum potential . |
| 790 | In spite of this argument , the capital cost of electricity generated from the SCWR will be lower in the long run , due to the simplicity of its structure that will make up for the high initial building cost ( Buongiorno , 2002 ) . |
| 791 | Besides , some scientists suggest that the thermal efficiency of GFR can probably be increased from the present level 30 % to higher than 50 % with no additional economic penalty ( Herranz , Linares , & Moratilla , 2009 ) . |
| 792 | For example , to produce the same amount of energy , a nuclear power plant consumes much less fuel ( uranium fuel ) than that a normal coal-fired one consumes . |
| 793 | However , the VHTR has resolved many of the safety concerns and proved to be much safer.The VHTR can be a pebble-bed reactor like HTR-10 in China . |
| 794 | Hence , there is much interest in research and development of solar powered cars which produce zero harmful emission . |
| 795 | In fact , the numbers of deaths caused by nuclear power plants accidents are much less compared to coal , hydro or natural gas power plants each year ( Safety of nuclear , 2008 ) . |
| 796 | With alterations to the operating temperature , pressure , waste recycling ability and power output of present nuclear reactors , the LCFR design is able to address many concerns the world has regarding the utilization of nuclear power . |
| 797 | In the near future , nuclear power has an important role to play to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases which cause global warming . |
| 798 | It is the energy of the future generation , and I support the use of nuclear power for alternative energy of the future . |
| 799 | Emerging plasma surface modification and grain boundary technologies are also applied to modify the near surface chemistry , microstructure and stress state of alloys used , which reduce the corrosion of the body of SWCR . |
| 800 | In addition nuclear waste produced by MSRs is not soluble in water thus reducing chances of possible contamination . |
| 801 | Although VHTR still has a few technical problems to be solved , its inspiring advantages have indicated the revival of the nuclear power . |
| 802 | " SFR have the capability to efficiently and nearly completely consume trans-uranium as fuel , which would reduce the actinide loadings in the high-level radioactive waste it produces . |
| 803 | The VHTR is equipped with superior passive safety features with its underground construction , which also greatly increases its security and physical protection . |
| 804 | We understand that there are many influential factors to support further research and development funding such as security , cost and performance in the newer generation of nuclear reactors , also known as " Generation IV " reactors . |
| 805 | As seen from the introduction above , the VHTR has many new additional and improved safety aspects , thus being much safer as compared to the ones we have currently . |
| 806 | ( GE Reports , 2009 ) By supporting the research on LFR , not only would it provide tremendous energy power to the world , but it would also solve the headache waste issue that every OECD nation is facing . |
| 807 | With continual R&D funding for development , SCWR will become a reliable and bountiful source of power in the future . |
| 808 | However , these problems could be solved by the new Generation IV reactors . |
| 809 | Furthermore , nuclear power is one of the cheapest powers to generate now ( The Royal Academy of Engineering , 2004 ) . |
| 810 | In conclusion , engineering design processes can meet the need of solving global warming by the improvement of catalytic converters and execution of cautious planning before any other procedures . |
| 811 | With the low maintenance fees , low labor cost and the high output of electricity , the total cost of the VHTR is actually less than that of the coal plants after a few years of operation . |
| 812 | One reason for this is that the servicing costs are lower for eco-friendly cars that operate on electricity as compared to gasoline powered automobile with internal combustion engines . |
| 813 | The Generation IV concepts offer a promising solution to the power issue through their very high efficiency in conversion of thermal energy to electricity compared to their Generation 3 counterparts . |
| 814 | In the long run , the cost of nuclear power is much lower than others . |
| 815 | Hence the birth of the electric car , which Marshall ( n.d. ) explained that its automobile fully powered by electricity only , which reduces the harmful emissions by no emissions , which results in a cleaner and greener environment . |
| 816 | Another issue that nuclear energy would address is global warming . |
| 817 | In all , I feel that VHRT would be the best bet as a clean , safe and cheaper alternative in the long run . |
| 818 | The problem on disposal of nuclear waste is also solved by the ability of VHTR to consume existing nuclear waste and producing nuclear waste with shorter half-lives . |
| 819 | Nuclear power is a good substitution for fossil fuel . |
| 820 | AP1000 : a passive future for the PWR : aiming to strike a balance between proven technology and innovative advanced passive safety systems , the AP1000 pressurised water reactor can achieve generation costs that are economic in the current electricity market . |
| 821 | The VHTR concept is based on what is judged to be the minimal risk technology that will achieve commercial functional requirements to provide an economically competitive nuclear heat source and hydrogen production capability ( Idaho Laboratories , 2009 ) . |
| 822 | Thus , the VHTR waste is much safer than that of the existing nuclear reactors . |
| 823 | ( NGNP , 2008 ) In the long run , the development of nuclear energy will solve energy and environment problems involving oil and gas . |
| 824 | Also since a wind turbine or solar panel is more unlikely to be in a terrorist 's hit list than a nuclear plant , cost of maintaining security of them are relative less . |
| 825 | Moreover , during the development of solar power technology , we should try to increase the efficiency of the power convertion and lower the price of the products . |
| 826 | The development of VHTR ensures us a safe and abundant source of energy for the next centuries , before solar power technology is becomes advanced to meet our energy demands . |
| 827 | Thus , what is the most efficient design to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants ? |
| 828 | This is because it is better in terms of performance , cost and safety . |
| 829 | Therefore , the effort put into this area of research is to make MSR a cleaner nuclear reactor plant that reduces , reuses and recycles its waste . |
| 830 | The technology can build a a country 's energy independence , and thus regional geo-political stability . |
| 831 | Moreover , there are many safety measures implemented to minimize potential dangers of operating VHTR . |
| 832 | A promising way to solve the energy problem |
| 833 | Last but not least , waste recycling in the MSR allows better usage of materials as well as ensures a lower cost of operation . |
| 834 | Hence , this reactor does not need a very long research period and cuts down the unnecessary development funding . |
| 835 | From the analysis , the VHTR will spend fuel in a symbiotic fuel cycle that can achieve significant reductions in waste quantity and radio toxicity because of its ability to accommodate a wide variety of mixtures of fissile and fertile materials without significantly modifying the core design ( U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear , 2002 ) . |
| 836 | Nuclear power generation emits relatively low amounts of carbon dioxide and its contribution to global warming is therefore relatively smaller . |
| 837 | Moreover , nuclear energy has the greatest potential for fulfilling our demands . |
| 838 | In conclusion , nuclear energy is not dangerous to human beings so we should make full use of nuclear energy to benefit the whole of mankind . |
| 839 | This will help to reduce its cost of construction as compared to other power generators . |
| 840 | It 's part of the effort to reduce production cost , improve the durability and increase the forms of applications . |
| 841 | However , this new kind of reactor is quite environmentally-friendly . |
| 842 | ECCS can remove excess heat and avoid damage to power plants in emergency situations , such as terrorism . |
| 843 | The first reason why it is good to fund and support the development of nuclear energy for future energy consumption is the limitation of energy resources . |
| 844 | Thus , nuclear power is not as dangerous as we thought . |
| 845 | Therefore , we should believe that modern science and technology can ensure the security of nuclear plants . |
| 846 | There are some current solutions available such as primary regulations , control devices and increased fuel efficiency . |
| 847 | This new generation IV reactor has also been improved to work on this problem . |
| 848 | However , the generation IV reactor the supercritical-water-cooled-reactor ( SCWR ) will solve these problems straightforwardly . |
| 849 | In modern nuclear reactors , passive safety systems which seek to eliminate the possibility of human errors have been installed . |
| 850 | However , as the days go by , the number of opponents against nuclear energy is decreasing due to the advancements in technology and the realization of the need for alternative sources of power . |
| 851 | This will prevent overheating which leads to explosions . |
| 852 | The VHTR system , if successful , will prevent most accidents |
| 853 | Hence energy costs are reduced when spread over a larger consumption area , which is especially important in the light of rising oil prices . |
| 854 | From the hindered growth of nuclear energy in North Korea , we can see that the abuse of nuclear power such as SCWRs is less likely to happen nowadays . |
| 855 | In conclusion , the advantages of nuclear energy outweigh the disadvantages . |
| 856 | In addition , the fuel of the very high temperature reactor will be sent to repositories for final geologic disposal which will reduce both the lifetime and toxicity of the radioactive waste . |
| 857 | This is relatively cheap , safe and it produces greater output efficiency . |
| 858 | All these factors reflect the LFR as a more reliable future nuclear power generator . |
| 859 | Also , it helps ease global warming . |
| 860 | Currently , a general recognition suggests that nuclear power is a good sustainable energy . |
| 861 | According to scientific observations of nuclear power generation and the positive effect of nuclear energy , there is no doubt that nuclear power is one of the best ways for energy generation , although there are some negative influences . |
| 862 | Hence , the radioactive waste is brought to an optimum for disposal and lesser harmful radioactive waste is produced by MSR . |
| 863 | Our future method should also be safe , economic , efficient and flexble for applications . |
| 864 | With the concerns of global warming and depletion of conventional energy sources , investment in generation IV nuclear reactors seems to be a good alternative . |
| 865 | This also helps to reduce the cost to search for alternative input material for SWCR . |
| 866 | In addition , the development of the small LFR will incur smaller research and demonstration costs , since the technology base can be applied to later LFR concepts when building larger reactors |
| 867 | There is no need to spend so much on nuclear energy development . |
| 868 | Nuclear energy is 'clean ' as it does not release any greenhouse emissions . |
| 869 | Moreover , solar cars take advantage of solar energy which is easily available and cheap . |
| 870 | From the popularity and possibilities , it is evident that nuclear power is a suitable energy source for the future . |
| 871 | It is described as a new and important way of solving the problem of storage system and energy crisis . |
| 872 | The following statistics can illustrate that nuclear power is much safer than others . |
| 873 | The VHTR system has its own safety features such as a very high system temperature , enhanced goals for safety and reliability , low decay heat load , low power density with and so on ( Idaho National Laboratory ) . |
| 874 | Furthermore , another benefit that makes SFR concept a better choice is its safety features . |
| 875 | SFR also recycles radioactive materials thus decreases the risk of leakage of such dangerous materials . |
| 876 | This is proven from its low excess reactivity to decreasing maintenance costs . |
| 877 | Researchers are currently researching and finding ways to further reduce the cost and enhance the safety of generation IV reactor concepts . |
| 878 | This is simply due to the nature of nuclear fuel being to produce much more energy . |
| 879 | Among the possible solutions to global warming , the technology that should be developed is solar cars , because it could not only effectively reduce the emission of greenhouse gases , but could also take advantage of natural resources . |
| 880 | The low cost associated with nuclear energy has made France the largest electricity exporter . |
| 881 | In conclusion , I firmly believe that the huge potential benefits the nuclear reactor creates will no doubt attract more support not only from the government but also from the public and once the construction of VHTR is completed , I think the dawn of nuclear energy will also come . |
| 882 | Nevertheless , nuclear power now is substantially cheaper and it is expected to be even lower in the near future through further research and development . |
| 883 | But for the finalized product , the cost should be reduced and the efficiency of the cell should be increased . |
| 884 | As a result , more people are turning to nuclear power as a solution to the high electricity cost . |
| 885 | The focus is to decrease the emission of radiation and ensure the safety of civilians once an accident happens . |
| 886 | Thus , we can safely conclude that the VHTR as well as nuclear technology are not as dangerous as perceived by the public . |
| 887 | The automatic GIV reactor will definitely boost the safety standard of nuclear plant further . |
| 888 | However , the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor is also well designed especially for waste recycling ; GFR tries to minimize the release of gaseous and liquid effluents to the environment . |
| 889 | Therefore , its research and development should be supported and properly funded so that one day it can reach its full potential and alleviate some of the world 's energy problems . |
| 890 | First of all , nuclear energy is an environmentally friendly energy . |
| 891 | It is a widely known fact that nuclear power is able to produce much more energy compared to traditional fossil fuels . |
| 892 | In fact , any new design of reactors today will be pre-approved for lower construction costs , which include the cost for decommissioning and waste management ( Johnston , 2008 ) . |
| 893 | Therefore , such nuclear power reactors should be adopted in the future as a promising source of energy . |
| 894 | As one of the most practical generation IV reactors , the supercritical water reactor has many advantages over the generation III reactors such as the higher efficiency . |
| 895 | With further funding on the research , humans will be able to produce energy in the long run without damaging the environment . |
| 896 | Although the development and research of Generation IV reactors produces less nuclear waste , the main problem lies in getting rid of it rather than in storing it . |
| 897 | Energies such as solar energy have been promoted to fulfill this purpose . |
| 898 | Given both the advantages of nuclear energy and the current situation , it is practical and urgent for us to put concerted efforts to the development of nuclear energy . |
| 899 | In many instances , nuclear power could be a solution to problems we are facing now . |
| 900 | " ) This means that nuclear energy can be charged at an affordable price that is competitive to coal and gas . |
| 901 | With a stronger work force and economy , the country will then be ready to support the developing of power reactors . |
| 902 | One of the G.IV reactors , Supercritical-water-cooled reactor ( SWCR ) listed in 'Nuclear energy 's new dawn ' ( Butler , 2004 ) is safe , environmentally friendly , and low cost . |
| 903 | The experience minimizes the chances of any experimental failure and in turn saves the research funds . |
| 904 | Such situations motivated the discovery of alternative fuels that could reduce our dependence on foreign imports . |
| 905 | Engineering can help to address this issue by designing technologies which are capable of producing little or no carbon dioxide . |
| 906 | They power new industrial technologies that boost our Gross National Product and improve our global competitiveness " ( Nuclear Energy : Benefits for All Americans , 2001 ) . |
| 907 | Secondly , from the economic perspective , Generation IV nuclear energy systems have lower cost than other energy sources . |
| 908 | However , there is subtle safety design in the VHTR to reduce the potential of explosion . |
| 909 | Furthermore , the resources required in an LFR are in abundance , making it a sustainable source of energy . |
| 910 | However , in the long term , the power generated will be worth the large amount of money , as the usage cost from nuclear plants is lower than the usage cost from fuel plants . |
| 911 | Synergy between fast reactors and thermal breeders for safe , clean , and sustainable nuclear power . |
| 912 | The supercritical water reactor is based on the light water reactor we use nowadays and becomes simpler in the configuration because that it uses the supercritical water as the moderator and the coolant ( Mori , 2005 ) . |
| 913 | Actually , with the improvement of technology , the generation IV reactors are safe enough . |
| 914 | The ITER could do without the need to reprocess its nuclear waste and therefore could bring the cost down of producing electricity . |
| 915 | Better heat transfer also allows the coolant to have a slower flow rate of the coolant , thus saving cost by using smaller pumps and piping . |
| 916 | Therefore , less radioactive waste will be generated and need to be land-filled . |
| 917 | It is the efficiency that saves time and cost . |
| 918 | One of the many innovations that help to make our lives convenient is " Refrigeration " . |
| 919 | In the long term , the MSR saves money by recycling its waste and is more efficient as compared to the VHTR . |
| 920 | In my opinion , governments should fund the Gen IV reactors , as they possess remarkable advantages in terms of safety , performance and costs relative to the old designs . |
| 921 | Nayak , R.K. Sinha , 2007 ) which makes the reactions much reliable and back-up systems are set available to avoid totally reliance on only one kind of system . |
| 922 | Its advantages make it the suitable one to help the world transit into a new era of energy . |
| 923 | In an era where global warming is a burning issue , when the effects of extreme climate change are already evident , nuclear energy may be the ultimate solution to greener energy alternative , thus it is indeed time for us to move forward by challenging our fears and supporting funding for research based on nuclear reactors . |
| 924 | On the other hand , with the technology of Generation IV reactors , the radiation and nuclear waste can be eliminated . |
| 925 | From 1951 , when the first nuclear power plant generated electricity , the technology of nuclear power has become more efficient and safe . |
| 926 | Nuclear reactors would then become less of a terrorist target . |
| 927 | However , Generation IV reactors are designed to be safer than the previous generations . |
| 928 | With these safety and security features , the VHTR is safer and more secure than SCWR . |
| 929 | The improvement of the reverse osmosis process that created NeWater and the development of the 'eco-friendly ' vehicles are examples |
| 930 | The LFR 's smaller core and lesser required cooling systems , such as the omission of an intermediate cooling link , saves significant building costs as compared to SFR . |
| 931 | In short , nuclear power plants are more environmental friendly than coal power plants . |
| 932 | Furthermore , the VHTR concept requires " the lowest risk technology development " to " achieve the needed commercial functional requirements " CITATION Ver09 \ l 2052 ( Very-High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) ) among the six Generation IV reactors . |
| 933 | Most thoughts were put into the proposal to ensure the level of safety and security in producing such a powerful reactor . |
| 934 | As energy resources have become more and more precious and our technologies keep advancing , the supporting side of nuclear power seems winning in recent years as nuclear power plants are increasing in numbers in America , China , Japan and other countries . |
| 935 | After decades of development , nuclear technology is now more advanced and most importantly , safety in design has been largely enhanced . |
| 936 | Thus , it produces less waste than the others , especially VHTR . |
| 937 | Newton & P.J. Smith , 2007 ) Hence , it is safer when it works properly . |
| 938 | With the effort of scientists and researchers , GFR will be safely deployable if the technical hurdles are overcome . |
| 939 | This is a deciding factor as the current reserves of fossil fuels wo n't last long and the sooner we make nuclear power the mainstream source of energy , the better it would be for us and Mother Nature . |
| 940 | When the amount of gases produced by fossil fuels is compared with that by nuclear power plants , the latter will definitely be the wise choice for energy purpose because it produces zero carbon dioxide and zero poisonous gas . |
| 941 | Therefore , environmental pollution can be lessened by reduced fuel usage. . |
| 942 | The GCFR operates at a much safer lower operating temperature compared to the VHTR . |
| 943 | Nuclear power should be pursued for its environmental friendliness when compared against other forms like coal and diesel power plants and also its improved track record in safety . |
| 944 | ( OECD Nuclear Energy Agency , 2009 ) . The small system design will be useful for providing energy for developing countries and remote communities due to its size |
| 945 | Fast reactors utilize neutrons of much higher energy to cause fission , which differs from present types of reactors that slow down neutrons using moderators such as water . |
| 946 | From the above reasons , we can see that nuclear energy is not as dangerous as people expect . Contrarily , , it is one of the safest energy humans can use in modern society . |
| 947 | Therefore , further research and development funding for the Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactor ( SWCR ) should be provided as it stands in good stead to become the future 's power generator in the near future . |
| 948 | The reason why we should focus on the research of solar energy is that the atmospheric pollution caused by the consumption of fossil fuels is severe , and there is enough solar energy to be used on Earth , , and the diffusion and adoption of solar energy product is satisfying . |
| 949 | The physical protection of the new nuclear reactors will also prevent acts of terrorism . |
| 950 | Therefore , it may seem that nuclear power is a cheaper alternative . |
| 951 | Besides , a technoeconomic optimization method has been developed and can be applied to the power conversion system of a very high temperature reactor , taking both investment costs and operating costs into account ( Mansilla , 2008 ) Due to concerns over the energy resource availability , climate change , air quality , and energy security issue , nuclear power may take an important role in future . |
| 952 | This will also lead to reduction in costs since capital spent on reactants are significantly reduced ( The National Academies Press , 1984 ) . |
| 953 | Unlike the previous generations of nuclear reactors which are constantly critiqued by opponents , the LFR is considered to be not only safer in different aspects , but also more sustainable and economical . |
| 954 | In the process of exploiting fossil fuels , engineering design helps to find scientific methods to improve resource recovery and reduce resource wasting . |
| 955 | Nuclear power seems to be one of the promising solutions to the above problems . |
| 956 | Whereas , to the problem of high temperature and pressure , scientist put forward some corresponding improvements in generation IV reactors . |
| 957 | Specifically , the cost can be reduced by reducing the number of refuelling outages , compacting the reactor vessel , sampling the vessel internals , reducing the loop number , shortening the pipes , integrating the primary components and so on . |
| 958 | However , nuclear power is actually a better choice over other sources of energy because it has the best output for its cost and land area occupied . |
| 959 | The solution to this problem is the harnessing of an alternative form of energy called kinetic energy in wind . |
| 960 | If further funding of research can be devoted to optimizing SWCR , it will become more mature and we can gain a kind of promising energy for the long run . |
| 961 | However , this potential peril can be avoided by testing and choosing suitable materials which can withstand huge pressure and corrosion . |
| 962 | In comparison , GFR require less visual inspection than VHTR since it produced relatively lesser heat . |
| 963 | The spent fuel rod used in nuclear power plant can be reprocessed and reused , this reduces the amount of nuclear waste that need to be stored permanently . |
| 964 | In addition , a new nuclear reactor design will only be approved if it presents a relatively lower construction cost . |
| 965 | LFR , a highly feasible solution for the earth 's energy crisis , has a clear direction and promising future . |
| 966 | and drying the waste to reduce the emitting of waste from a reactor . |
| 967 | Being viable means that the generating cost should be competitive with other energy resources , while the capital investment should also be low enough to allow access to a large number of countries . |
| 968 | Hence , such a design for the waste recycling can reduce the cost for the waste processing . |
| 969 | Thus it will make the nuclear core even safer . |
| 970 | This would prevent the proliferation of the nuclear waste . |
| 971 | Therefore , it is highly likely that an effective passive heat removal system would be achieved for the VHTR in the near future . |
| 972 | A country can also benefit a lot from nuclear energy . |
| 973 | ( Nation Master ( 2007 ) ) Obviously , all these improvements have overcome the weaknesses of nuclear reactor 's security system , thus making SWCR into a safe power generator . |
| 974 | This will improve the efficiency of custom clearing process , thus saving time for travelers and improving the overall image of the country . |
| 975 | In addition , to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuel , we should now support further research and development for the super-critical water reactor ( SCWR ) . |
| 976 | Nuclear power is also friendly to the environment . |
| 977 | However , based on statistics , the number of fatalities in nuclear plants caused by operational accident is the lowest compared to other energy plants . |
| 978 | Relieving fatigue and restoring vitality should be the best way for engineers to prevent accidents . |
| 979 | Moreover , the on-line reprocessing reduces fission products . |
| 980 | Copper has good electrical conductivity which allows the conductor channel lengths and widths to be significantly reduced . |
| 981 | With increased global warming and rapid emissions of greenhouse gases from factories and fuel-powered vehicles , there is an urgent need to reduce these emissions and the clean technology of the electric car is one of the solutions to address the environmental concerns . |
| 982 | In conclusion , to solve the global warming and energy shortage problems , we need the exploration and better utilization of nuclear energy . |
| 983 | Thus , popularizing solar cars requires lowering the price and enlarging the capacity of solar battery . |
| 984 | The decline in the cost of electricity by nuclear energy is the result of decline in the cost of nuclear plant fuel , operations and maintenance , improved technology . |
| 985 | As for the environment aspect , VHTR is ultimately emission free and it causes milder land pollution compared to coal power plants . |
| 986 | On the other hand , with its simple design and high efficiency , it is fairly cheap to build and operate the VHTR . |
| 987 | And despite its risks , nuclear energy has its significant benefits as well . |
| 988 | Nuclear energy is also regarded as one of the clean energy available today as it does n't produce any pollutants that contribute to environmental problems . |
| 989 | There are studies shows that the production costs of the nuclear power plants have already dropped and the efficiency is high in long run . |
| 990 | Fortunately , generation IV nuclear reactors are on the horizon , promising " safe , abundant , reliable , inexpensive and proliferation resistant " nuclear power plants ( " Nuclear Power 's New Dawn " , 2004 ) . |
| 991 | Nuclear energy is affordable . |
| 992 | Also the recycling of used fuel also minimizes the production of radioactive waste . |
| 993 | In comparison , the MSR is considered a better choice as it is safer to operate at lower pressures and temperatures . |
| 994 | Locating the sunshades at remote areas areas reduces reduces the probability of injuries in case of any accident . |
| 995 | It is known for being more environmental friendly and less hazardous . |
| 996 | Since fuels are non renewable and emit a lot of harmful gases , the alternatives that we are looking for should be a renewable energy source and should not emit harmful pollutants . |
| 997 | Safety measures such as physical resistance and emergency plans have been implemented to improve the security of the SCWR . |
| 998 | Thus , nuclear power is not expensive compared to other sources . |
| 999 | Such efficient electricity generation will outweigh the high cost of the engineering design and production of the system ( Jaeri , 2002 ) . |
| 1000 | In comparison , VHTR supplying electricity is much cheaper ( Martin , 2009 ) . |
| 1001 | Due to low maintenance , the fixed cost would be lower in the near future . |
| 1002 | It is safer and it is now under further improvement in many developed countries . |
| 1003 | Countries should invest in the development of VHTR to satisfy their energy demands and to decrease the dependence on fossil fuels for energy . |
| 1004 | They are free and environmental-friendly sources of energy that we can use in the future . |
| 1005 | Moreover , building the reactor underground offers a greater level of security , as there are limited exit routes to the ground . |
| 1006 | This coolant makes the VHTR significantly much safer since it makes its core highly stable and unreactive . |
| 1007 | One way to reduce fuel consumption is to modify tanks such that they all have built-in solar panels |
| 1008 | In conclusion , I believe there is no reason to delay the developing of this new generation of nuclear reactor concept in order to serve the urgent need of energy all over the World . |
| 1009 | By cutting down on greenhouse gases emissions , it will eventually have a long term benefit for the public . |
| 1010 | The development of Gen IV nuclear reactors is necessary to respond to the upcoming scarcity of fissile material , the issue of proliferation and the requirement for safe repositories for nuclear waste . |
| 1011 | It can be seen that the usage of the VHTR is in fact environmentally friendly and responsible to the society . |
| 1012 | Thus , nuclear power generation is definitely one of the solutions to the energy challenge that mankind is facing now . |
| 1013 | However , nuclear energy is in fact one of the least expensive energy sources . |
| 1014 | With much more consistent energy production , factories and companies that rely on consistent energy to be productive would certainly choose performance over costs as disruptions might incur losses higher than paying for nuclear power . |
| 1015 | It can keep the nuclear reactor operating under lower temperature and pressure . |
| 1016 | The reason for the higher cost in building a VHTR is because of its safety features . |
| 1017 | Nuclear energy is definitely a viable option that can meet this demand . |
| 1018 | This effectively saved the cost of employing a worker and improved the efficiency of the sales . |
| 1019 | With the past accidents in mind and considering the advantages that nuclear power has to offer , if sufficient research efforts are to be channelled to the development of the LFR , we humans can certainly benefit from it in the long run . |
| 1020 | With the " greenhouse " effect and the environmental issue of global warming , nuclear energy has come at the right time to slow down the melting of the ice caps and stop the rise of sea levels . |
| 1021 | After years of innovations and experiments , the stove nowadays is safer to use and more convenient . |
| 1022 | In conclusion , SFR stands as a more viable option to be the solution to the world 's energy crisis . |
| 1023 | This will benefit the world , as carbon emissions will then decrease , slowing down global warming . |
| 1024 | In addition , the maintenance and labor cost of VHTR is much less than that of the coal plants . |
| 1025 | In addition , nuclear power alleviates global carbon dioxide production which is one of the major contributors to global warming . |
| 1026 | The attractive feature of this MSR fuel cycle is that the fission products have shorter-lived radioactivity . |
| 1027 | Thirdly , nuclear energy frees us from fossil fuel dependence . |
| 1028 | This can be accomplished through increased technology , or investment into machinery that cleans up polluted air . |
| 1029 | This makes GFR cheaper to maintain and safer than VHTR which needs to be checked every time in order to make it operate safely . |
| 1030 | On the other hands , the capital investment cost should be sufficiently low for developing nuclear system . |
| 1031 | In addition , LFRs are relatively safer as compared to other generation IV reactors due to the inertness of the lead coolant . |
| 1032 | Nuclear energy has thus emerged as one of the most viable solutions . |
| 1033 | Hence , nuclear energy might become essential in the near future as the world seeks to solve the energy-related problems such as global warming . |
| 1034 | In fact , nuclear power is the cheapest power people can produce ( The Virtual Nuclear Tourist , 2006 ) . |
| 1035 | For countries with limited natural resources , nuclear power plants serve as a dependable energy source . |
| 1036 | Furthermore , through the combination of a fast neutron spectrum and full recycle of actinides , GFRs minimize the production of long-lived radioactive waste isotopes , and can be designed for minor actinide management from used up fuel . |
| 1037 | By adopting the experiences from those countries , VHTR can be upgraded with a lower cost of the implementation . |
| 1038 | Next , traditional fossil fuels can be better used with the help of engineering design processes . |
| 1039 | Also radioactive leakage is prevented with the use of corrosion resistant materials . |
| 1040 | It was found that through thermonuclear fusion , it could reduce the radioactivity and the volume of wastes produced by nuclear fission ( Gerstner , 2009 ) . |
| 1041 | These prove that GFR is safer and more environmentally-friendly than the VHTR . |
| 1042 | As a result , it helps reduce the greenhouse effect . |
| 1043 | MSR 's design works on fail-safe drainage , passive cooling , and low inventory of volatile fission products in fuel . |
| 1044 | This is because of its relative high efficiency , high safety and practicability . |
| 1045 | Efficiency means lower costs . |
| 1046 | The low cost of nuclear energy is mainly due to the abundance of uranium which can be mined at a low cost and just a tiny amount of uranium can provide a huge amount of nuclear energy for usage . |
| 1047 | In the future , it can compete favorably with other energy sources . |
| 1048 | SFR operates at low temperature and low pressure and has multiple systems to back up safety . |
| 1049 | Here it is suitable to make an assumption . If the time used to explore this technology is fixed , according to the conclusion reached in the previous paragraph , it is easy to know that if we explore the nuclear energy earlier , we can save more money and save more resources . |
| 1050 | In comparison with the current technologies , nuclear power has its advantages . |
| 1051 | This gives people a sense of security when SCWR is used . |
| 1052 | In conclusion , funding for SWCR 's research should be increased as it is the best investment for energy . |
| 1053 | In terms of performance , security and cost cost , both reactors are well designed . |
| 1054 | In order to satisfy all the requirements , nuclear power is the one with a high chance among the realistic alternatives . |
| 1055 | We have strong evidence to show that with the improvement of technology , the concerns about the operation of nuclear plants will fade away . |
| 1056 | Nuclear energy sources have various benefits over other energy sources . |
| 1057 | Although people might suggest the use of Carbon Capture and Storage in the existing power plants , which costs less and decreases the CO2 emissions to a great extent , it should be pointed out that this is merely a solution to delay the problem that we would eventually face . |
| 1058 | Facts also indicated that the record of the operational safety of nuclear plants is much better than any other types of power plants ( debate on nuclear power , n.d ) . |
| 1059 | The problems brought by the unbalanced energy source distribution are solved . |
| 1060 | Evironmentalists argue that solar power is not just unlimited but also safer . |
| 1061 | For example , by defining the problem as the fast decreasing quantity of fossil fuels , engineers gain insight into creating a product which can be used to tap kinetic energy in wind . |
| 1062 | Hence , if Chinese scientists and engineers work as a team , the efficiency of work will be improved and the period of work time will be less . |
| 1063 | In conclusion , nuclear power is the solution for the current energy crisis . |
| 1064 | As fossil fuels and natural gas are depleting quickly , nuclear energy has emerged as a vital and strategic energy source in the world 's future energy supply market . |
| 1065 | Specifically , compared with the Molten Salt Reactor ( MSR ) , the VHTR is safer and incurs low operation and maintenance costs and modular construction costs . |
| 1066 | However , the VHTR offers higher degree of passive safety ; for instance , it is built underground and uses the earth to sink most of the heat produced . |
| 1067 | Using nuclear power is a long-term solution to human need for energy . |
| 1068 | The MSR is highly protected from nuclear proliferation due to its clever waste recycling of fission materials . |
| 1069 | When the cost is reduced , cheaper electricity can be provided to the public . |
| 1070 | Because of its high efficiency and enormous quantity , nuclear power energy has developed rapidly in recent years . |
| 1071 | An obvious advantage of nuclear power is the massive amounts of energy it can generate . |
| 1072 | All countries want to build reactors that are cheap in cost and that are efficient in producing electricity and hydrogen gases . |
| 1073 | Nuclear energy has many advantages . |
| 1074 | Nuclear energy is considered by some as the most promising energy source that could replace the depleting crude oil . |
| 1075 | Current nuclear generation ( II and III ) has been applied into different areas to generate secure and inexpensive electric energy . |
| 1076 | In this way , nuclear power has become an independent source of energy to meet the rising energy demand of a country and an increasingly growing global population . |
| 1077 | Thus , it has greatly reduced the excessive production of carbon dioxide . |
| 1078 | Therefore , it is necessary to design vehicles that move by low cost electricity . |
| 1079 | ( Munro & Strong , 2009 ) However , nuclear power reactors are much safer and securer than most people can imagine even when the reactive temperature is very high . |
| 1080 | The LFR is a nuclear energy reactor that is environmentally friendly with zero greenhouse gas emission . |
| 1081 | To further put the public 's mind at ease , the VHTR is also designed to automatically shut down in a case of an accident hence minimizing radiation leakage and foiling any terrorists ' attacks . |
| 1082 | Since then , continuous researches has been done to produce a better generation of nuclear reactors . |
| 1083 | The solution to create a more environmentally friendly way to generate energy based on my particular set of factors is therefore to invent an add-on to existing power generators to provide greater efficiency in fuel to energy conversion . |
| 1084 | However , it has also been proven that reprocessing nuclear waste cuts down greatly on the radioactive life of the waste . |
| 1085 | This forces people to resort to producing energy through nuclear reactors which have higher outputs . |
| 1086 | Simultaneously , the system will also bring about a safe environment . |
| 1087 | Besides , using solar energy actually costs nothing , which ensures that solar cars could be affordable in the long run . |
| 1088 | New generation IV reactors address these serious issues and bring new hope to mankind . |
| 1089 | SFR is supposed to be safer and more environmentally friendly than VHTR . |
| 1090 | However , VHTR is much safer compared to the past nuclear reactors . |
| 1091 | However , it is common sense that maintenance fees should be much lower than the cost of building a new reactor . |
| 1092 | In order to sway nuclear-adverse public , the Generation IV concept 's reactors need to yield less radioactive waste at terrorist-proof facilities . |
| 1093 | Generation IV reactors are much cleaner than previous generations . |
| 1094 | Actually it is much cleaner than many other forms of energy that emits too much green-house gas and various pollutions . |
| 1095 | Although it produces a large amount of radioactive wastes , if the hybrid reactor could be produced , the wastes would not be a problem . |
| 1096 | Nuclear power is quite an economical choice for countries with limited natural resources . |
| 1097 | Yet , VHTR is actually still safe and reliable to operate , with improved accident management and mitigation and reduced off-side response with little human intervention . |
| 1098 | One more argument for nuclear energy is that it is cheap . |
| 1099 | For example , trees and plants can be planted at strategic locations of Singapore as they will reduce pollution by photosynthesising and producing oxygen in return . |
| 1100 | Secondly , VHTR has high sustainability and is also environmental friendly . |
| 1101 | But in the long run , nuclear power may even be cheaper . |
| 1102 | In addition , zero carbon technology should be encouraged in response to the concerns of climate change . |
| 1103 | They claim that other than the problems of cost and performance , this system is still very important and functional when nuclear accidents happen . |
| 1104 | In a nutshell , design processes are the main essence for a better future transportation , in terms of fuel type , environmentalenvironmental friendliness , functionalities as well as cost . |
| 1105 | So , compared with the traditional way , building VHTR is much more environmentally friendly . |
| 1106 | At the same time there is a lot of evidences show that nuclear power could be considered as the best suggestion to mitigate global warming . |
| 1107 | The VHTR also has the unique feature of proliferation resistance which would prevent potential nuclear wars . |
| 1108 | The usage of advanced materials , the loop type cooling system and innovative design options , are all adopted to save plant capital costs . |
| 1109 | One of the most suitable replacements is nuclear power . |
| 1110 | Environmentalists claim that green energy such as solar , wind and hydro energy are the trusted technologies which we should focus our research and funds on in meeting the increasing energy needs . |
| 1111 | Global warming and increasing energy demands revive the need for nuclear energy . |
| 1112 | The Gen IV reactors aim to develop waste-free nuclear energy by burning up fission waste , leaving a residue greatly reduced in both volume and radioactivity ( Gerstner , 2009 ) . |
| 1113 | Tapping kinetic energy in wind is a good solution as wind is abundant due to the frequent changes in the atmospheric pressure . |
| 1114 | For example , by replacing the stainless steel commonly found in reactors with other alloys that are equally strong or alloys that are stronger and more durable , and that do not use nickle , the cost of building the reactor can be reduced since the price of nickle has been increasing in recent times ( Busby , 2009 ) . |
| 1115 | Moreover the impact of global warming is growing and is of immediate concern to the world and nuclear power helps solve the problem by reducing the emission of carbon dioxide by a total of 31,243 MtC in 2050 in France and Canada alone . |
| 1116 | With all these advantages , the generation IV reactors will be one of the best solutions to the world 's energy shortage problem . |
| 1117 | In conclusion , the VHTR is highly feasible , safe and efficient . |
| 1118 | However , the new advanced feature of VHTR can effectively protect itself from the damage of terrorists . |
| 1119 | This system is believed to be the best system so far to protect nuclear workers and the public rather than other methods such as probabilistic safety assessment because the ERIS is more practical protecting people directly after an incident happens . |
| 1120 | Achieving optimum nuclear safety . |
| 1121 | Economic benefits of advanced materials in nuclear power systems . |
| 1122 | The technology has since improved and many new safety and monitoring features have been included . |
| 1123 | In this way , engineering design process of utilization of solar energy can meet people 's needs . |
| 1124 | Take the development of electric cars as an example , engineers recognized the increasing emphasis on eco friendliness , and therefore developed the vehicle without a fuel-powered engine to ease global warming . |
| 1125 | With such attractive advantages installed in the eco-car , it might slowly be introduced to the society as a form of transport so as to solve the problem of global warming . |
| 1126 | To wrap up , I believe that the new generation IV reactors such as SCWR are nothing like their previous generation of nuclear reactors because technology is constantly improving each day to make the nuclear reactors safer to be built . |
| 1127 | At the same time , electricity was invented and people began to appreciate the convenience brought by it . |
| 1128 | To solve this problem , one way is to gather energy from nature . |
| 1129 | However , this is not true as advancements in technology has allowed nuclear power plants to be safer than any other types of power plants . |
| 1130 | Therefore , the LFR seems a safer reactor as compared to the VHTR . |
| 1131 | Nuclear energy is one of the most promising energies which can take the place of fossil fuel . |
| 1132 | Moreover , as new technology develops , costs can be cut down gradually . |
| 1133 | By doing so , the pollution caused by using fossil fuels can be reduced . |
| 1134 | So to sum up , we have a bright future for renewable resources and the problem of limited resources will worry people no more . |
| 1135 | Thus , no matter which generation IV reactor is used , if its system has control action , it is also relatively safe . |
| 1136 | The advantages of the nuclear power plant outweigh its disadvantages . |
| 1137 | One of these strategies is harnessing nuclear energy . |
| 1138 | Most importantly , humans can benefit from the LFR in the future if thorough research and more developments are to be made on it so as to make it safer and more secure from accidents or terrorist attacks . |
| 1139 | ( Burthler , 2004 ) Additionally , according to the economics concept , there is less third party cost incurred by others if nuclear power is used instead of other fuels . |
| 1140 | Nevertheless , with the new generation IV reactors , especially the sodium-cooled fast reactor ( SFR ) which will be the first generation IV reactor to be completed and more efficient in the usage of the nuclear fuel , nuclear energy will definitely be one of the main sources of energy in the future . |
| 1141 | Although the waste of nuclear reactors is indeed radioactive , the VHTR reactor design minimises the possibility for radioactive elements to harm the environment . |
| 1142 | Due to the uncomplicated design and efficiency , it is low cost in construction and use is said by ( Jacopo Buongiorno , 2004 ) . |
| 1143 | Furthermore , they are able to solve the heat emission by cooling themselves down if accidents do happen . |
| 1144 | In addition , unlike traditional reactors , the VHTR is designed to minimize fissionable material in its spent fuel by running the fuel pellets through the reactors for consecutive cycles until its fissionable material is exhausted . |
| 1145 | The physical protection promises top security of building nuclear power plants like the LFR . |
| 1146 | In the long run , the high start up cost is covered by the savings made from the reduced cost of energy . |
| 1147 | Therefore , developing a design to enhance the safety of nuclear power plants becomes a long-term project of the world . |
| 1148 | The small size of the nuclear power plants allows them to be integrated in the already developed regions and makes the long-distance power transfer unnecessary . |
| 1149 | Burning of waste materials hence provide our major source of energy instead of bulky power plants . |
| 1150 | Nuclear power is the up and coming alternative green energy source which will tackle global and environmental issues such as depleting natural resources , escalating energy consumption and global warming . |
| 1151 | They will help reduce carbon dioxide and subsequently reduce the effect of global warming ( Jacques & Ralph , 2008 ) . |
| 1152 | Moreover , if developing countries have insufficient funds , they can approach AEHI for financial and labour support but an alternative way would be building smaller-scale plants without the need to use costly power grids and thus incur lower costs . |
| 1153 | Nuclear power is usually lauded as the " environmentally-friendly " energy and rightly so too . |
| 1154 | Last but not least , the charging-up process should be efficient . |
| 1155 | They are capable of combusting nuclear waste and leaving a minimal volume of waste with insignificant half-lives , thus addressing the nuclear waste problem . |
| 1156 | Last but not least , alternative fuels do not rely on oil from the Middle East , owing to the advanced technology used to make renewable fuels . The advanced technology opens up an entire dimension of . |
| 1157 | Besides eliminating human errors in operating a nuclear plant , the automatic system will mean that no operators will be endangered as all processes , including emergency procedures , will be done automatically . |
| 1158 | To address this , the GFR system has involved measures to enhance PR & PE and has adopted an actinide management to ensure nuclear waste utilization and availability of fuel in the long term . |
| 1159 | Generation IV reactors may just be the solution to meet these demands . |
| 1160 | Hence we should continue to develop nuclear energy as it is a proven tool to obtain constant steady supply of energy . |
| 1161 | From the development and achievements of this subject in the not-too-distant future , the choice for a better design and the way to prevent accidents can be directly obtained . |
| 1162 | Moreover , renewable energy technologies are now expanding faster than nuclear power technologies ( Natural Resources Defense Council , 2007 ) . |
| 1163 | Thus , it is able to attain thermal stability . |
| 1164 | Moreover , the MSR saves fuel by reusing it . |
| 1165 | In other words , VHTR reduces the general demand for fossil fuels . |
| 1166 | This function helps the user to reduce cost on maintenance . |
| 1167 | Thus , in terms of the cost factor , it is still an advantage to the public if we use nuclear energy in the long run . |
| 1168 | Despite that , proponents argue that with proper storage and appropriate protection measures , the nuclear waste should not pose any health risk to the public . |
| 1169 | One of the solutions to this problem is the Generation IV nuclear reactors . |
| 1170 | However with the present level of research we shall be safe to set our hopes on the Generation 4 reactors , with their advanced design and coolants . |
| 1171 | Therefore , the Gen IV reactors are more reliable than the previous generations . |
| 1172 | The only thing we can do is to improve their efficiency and seek new and green power supplies which will make them as environmentally-friendly as possible . |
| 1173 | In this context , VHTR is much cheaper than coal-fuelled plants . |
| 1174 | Since wind and sunlight are free with zero-waste , it seems better to focus on the development of these green sources . |
| 1175 | In order to develop our society without exhausting all the fossil fuels or sacrificing our environment , we have to find new energy resources to take the place of traditional fossil fuels . |
| 1176 | This change effectively eliminates their disadvantages in terms of mobility compared to the young people . |
| 1177 | In terms of the coolant used by the two reactors , VHTR is safer than LFR . |
| 1178 | If the VHTR can be realized as soon as possible , public concerns about the hefty pricing on carbon tax and fossil fuels can then be addressed earlier . |
| 1179 | Solar Cars Alleviate Global Warming |
| 1180 | It also offers a high level of safety reliability . |
| 1181 | Due to climate changes , countries are encouraged to lower the amount of carbon dioxide gas ( CO2 ) released into the air by treating it so as to remove its toxicity ( Clayton , 2009 ) . |
| 1182 | Besides , as Declan Butler said , Global warming and rising energy needs are rehabilitating the concept of nuclear power . |
| 1183 | Therefore , the cost of the resources can be significantly reduced . |
| 1184 | In a word , the probability of major accidents is significantly reduced in a molten salt reactor . |
| 1185 | Hence , the resultant land pollution caused by VHTR will be milder in contrast with that of coal power |
| 1186 | Today , the principal challenges are using green resources and energy to radically reduce CO2 emissions to help ease climate change and to pursue sustainable development . |
| 1187 | In my opinion , nuclear power is a must for our further development and we have the ability to control it and make full use of it . |
| 1188 | Moreover , it is designed well in terms of safety and cost . |
| 1189 | Because of accidents and people found out the solutions to improve safety . |
| 1190 | In the event of accidents caused by high fuel burn-ups , temperature control will be available . |
| 1191 | Nuclear power seems to be a suitable solution . |
| 1192 | According to a research study , accidents involving nuclear plants are much fewer than those involving traffic , suicides and fire |
| 1193 | Among the solutions such as and recycling natural resources , finding alterative resources seems to be the best solution to providing a sustainable supply of energy for various industries . |
| 1194 | When high cost eventually returns us the ample energy supply and clean and comfortable living environment , all the seeming expensive cost is worth spending . |
| 1195 | Given the gloomy forecast on global warming due to the environmental impacts caused by greenhouse gases , it is not surprising that countries are turning towards nuclear energy as an alternative . |
| 1196 | Instead of reducing the carbon emission , we can solve this impending crisis by finding some methods that reduce the heat source or are able to manipulate the heat input on Earth . |
| 1197 | Although the safety aspect is being widely debated , the safety feature of VHTR is improving with time ( INL ) . |
| 1198 | What nuclear reactors do is to slow down the chain reaction to a controllable level and convert nuclear power to electricity . |
| 1199 | From all of the above pros and cons of nuclear energy and nuclear power reactor , we realize that these issues involved developing of these modern techniques are not impossible to solve and why not to commit renewed effort and fresh innovations to get these nuclear power plant get up and going ? |
| 1200 | This would greatly reduce the consequences of the fall if actions are taken within a shorter time . |
| 1201 | After improving the vacuum inside the globe , he produced a long-lasting and reliable light source . |
| 1202 | Without financial support , the collection of relative information and research of the various solutions have to be done in a simpler manner , and may lead to the final failure of a design project . |
| 1203 | In fact , by using Generation Four nuclear power plant in the coming future , these problems can be solved definitely . |
| 1204 | This is the reason why many believe that ( SFR ) should be considerably safe and measures must have been in place to prevent any accident . |
| 1205 | Looking into every single opportunity to decrease the greenhouse gases emittedg into the atmosphere , we realise energy sources may be one of the emphatic points to be revised . |
| 1206 | In other words , it reduces the amount of foreign energy import , so it can help solve disputes over energy , especially oil . |
| 1207 | Also , funds could be diverted into other sources which would result in an improvement in a country 's cleanliness . |
| 1208 | To ensure sustainable development without the compromise on environment , GFR has used nuclear power to provide energy . |
| 1209 | This shows that the nuclear reactors now are reliable . |
| 1210 | Thus , the key difference is that nuclear energy can supply electricity on a global scale . |
| 1211 | Since there is less energy , we should reduce consumption first . |
| 1212 | Thanks to the highly-developed technology of the new generation , VHTR is designed with high-level security . |
| 1213 | The benefits and usages of nuclear power plants are undeniable . |
| 1214 | Although there are many risk hazards involving the VHTR , it is still one of the most promising models , and many countries are keen on adopting this model as the future reactor . |
| 1215 | Also , costs will come down as technology improves ( RFID Journal , 2005 ) . |
| 1216 | However , as evidenced by scientists , although nuclear energy still produce some greenhouse gas emissions associated with the life cycle of uranium , but this is significantly less than the emissions associated with the burning of fossil fuels . |
| 1217 | In some places of the world , people are accepting solar energy products such as solar energy converters as they think that they are fashionable and pollution-free . |
| 1218 | To conclude , simple operational and transparent safety concepts are inherently embedded in the VHTR , ensuring a high level of safety . |
| 1219 | The countries that are developing this nuclear power ( only five countries-China , France , Russia , the United Kingdom and the United States ) must make good use of the nuclear power as the energy source for people 's daily use . |
| 1220 | The second is that soalr power is very safe . |
| 1221 | Presently in the market , there are already technologies which can replace present day equipment and emit less carbon dioxide . |
| 1222 | Therefore , the SCWR is the most feasible choice among all the other generation IV reactors . |
| 1223 | However , in the current situation where there are no better alternatives , nuclear energy seems to be the most suitable energy for the future and therefore one of the generation IV reactors , the lead-coaled fast reactor , should be adopted as the solution . |
| 1224 | Moreover , the primary purpose of nuclear energy is to generate electricity . |
| 1225 | I think it is necessary and feasible to build VHTR to solve our energy problems , although some people hold opposite ideas . |
| 1226 | Taking a small step forward will reduce famine . |
| 1227 | In the event of an accident , the probability of a meltdown occurring is minimized . |
| 1228 | Moreover , most of the funds are spent on nuclear research and relatively there are less spending on people 's needs . |
| 1229 | ( Rachael Elder & Ray Allen , 2008 ) Thus the VHTR will be a very safe prototype given its multiple protection layers and effective backup system . |
| 1230 | This means that mining process for gasoline might also be lesser and therefore the air pollution problem will be less serious . |
| 1231 | The VHTR is one of the best generation IV reactors , making it one of the most reliable energy providers in the future . |
| 1232 | Many improvements should be made to increase the conversion rate and lower the cost of the equipment so it can be utilised . |
| 1233 | Launching a few huge sunshades at the altitude , especially at the poles and oceans , this allows some of the heat to be reflected away from them , thus reducing the temperature and melting of glaciers . |
| 1234 | In addition , with waste recycling , the amount of radioactive waste to be disposed is reduced . |
| 1235 | Secondly , reducing manufacturing cost hampers the innovative design process as well . |
| 1236 | Thus , how to make use of nuclear energy safely and efficiently has become the core problem for modern society . |
| 1237 | In addition , the spent fuel from VHTR contains an insignificant amount of fissionable materials , thus it would pose less of a threat if it were to end up in the hands of terrorists . |
| 1238 | A scientific and logical explanation was given by Serway,&Jewett ( N.D ) , whom explained that on rainy days or on wet surfaces , static and kinetic friction would be reduced greatly . |
| 1239 | Therefore , a prevention measure , in the form of upgrading public facilities have been implemented to prevent this from happening . |
| 1240 | For the sustainability of our modern lifestyle , funding for research on SWCR should increase . |
| 1241 | The generation IV reactors will perform very well in this aspect . |
| 1242 | Even though Generation IV reactors might generate threats from terrorist attacks to acts of wars , stricter laws and policies could be set in place for counter measures ( GreenPeace , 2005 ) . |
| 1243 | Hence , China will reduce a lot of its oil import if nuclear energy is widely used and accepted by the public . |
| 1244 | In short , nuclear power plants should be funded as their benefits outweigh the shortcomings such as the high cost . |
| 1245 | In fact , the lead/bismuth-cooled SVBR-75/100 is the cheapest to build amongst other types of fast reactors . |
| 1246 | To conclude , despite these opposing arguments , SCWR has an absolutely promising future for the nuclear energy . |
| 1247 | Nuclear power , for a long time , has been one of the most useful inventions that served the people . |
| 1248 | As a result , six generation 4 reactor concepts were proposed by the Generation 4 International Forum ( GIF ) , offering substantial advancement in safety and reliability , sustainability , cost and physical protection ( |
| 1249 | Moreover , these generation IV reactors are also very economic and promising . |
| 1250 | The design of GFR is for no off-site radioactivity release and would require the efficiency , simplicity , robustness and reliability of systems and physical barriers . |
| 1251 | The MSR operates at a low temperature and pressure , and have efficient waste recycling methods . |
| 1252 | In a bid to counter the issue of global warming , solutions that are socially determined such as solar panels , windmills and dams were created . |
| 1253 | Hence , engineering designer should consider how to cut cost in future , in order to let solar energy be utilized more successfully . |
| 1254 | In conclusion , the SCWR is the ideal candidate for the next generation of nuclear power reactors . |
| 1255 | The money invested can be used to improve healthcare or even harness other forms of energy like solar energy to produce electricity . |
| 1256 | Moreover , the performance of a nuclear plant is very significant compared to conventional thermal power stations . |
| 1257 | This would mean it would be less expensive to maintain agasrefrigerator compared to an electric one . |
| 1258 | However , the waste of the VHTR is less radioactive than the other reactors . |
| 1259 | In short , the performance of VHTR is excellent through using so many advanced technologies . |
| 1260 | More patrols , stronger and more capable security forces , additional physical barriers , greater stand-off distances for vehicle checks , more restrictive site access controls were introduced to minimize security risks ( U.S.URC , 2008 ) . |
| 1261 | In summary , nuclear energy will continue to play an important role in meeting the world 's energy demands . |
| 1262 | Hence , solar cars must be made of very light materials . |
| 1263 | Moreover , as burning fossil fuels to generate energy releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere , it would be ideal to find a replacement source of energy as early as possible to lessen the global warming effect . |
| 1264 | Global warming has been identified as one of the greatest threat to our survival , and engineers have tried to solve this issue by coming up with green technology such as solar panels , windmills and dams . |
| 1265 | However , the LFR has made improvements on its physical structure to minimize physical damage from external attacks . |
| 1266 | Nuclear energy has been proposed to be the solution to this critical issue . |
| 1267 | The SCWR is built of low-cost electricity . |
| 1268 | The reason for the rapid development of alternative technology and renewable fuels are primarily based on four causes : environmental safety , future sustainability , economic benefit and geo-political stability . |
| 1269 | Hydrogen produced is recycled within the plant itself for further production and there is also a maximization of resources . |
| 1270 | To confront global warming , Gen IV nuclear reactors like the VHTR should be seen as a solution . |
| 1271 | As a good solution towards green house effect , we expect to see a bright future of nuclear power technology and it will be adopted in more countries in next few decades . |
| 1272 | Although MSR generally generates less energy as compared to other nuclear reactors , the less space it requires can make up for it . |
| 1273 | Nuclear Energy Is Affordable . |
| 1274 | The VHTR has proved to be greatly advanced in the safety aspect . |
| 1275 | In recent years , reprocessing nuclear waste has become an alternative . Reprocessing nuclear waste could cut the final amount of waste produced ; meanwhile , uranium and plutonium could be recovered and reused . |
| 1276 | Although there are certainly dangers in nuclear power plants , I believe that its potential benefits will certainly outweigh its dangers . |
| 1277 | Another safety design is the temperature-resistant material . |
| 1278 | Like Britain , many countries have considered nuclear power to be the best solution to foster electricity as well as the energy industry . |
| 1279 | As it is a very promising energy source , it is not a wonder that nuclear power is extremely enticing to mankind . |
| 1280 | Hence , supercritical-water-cooled reactor can be considered a better kind among all generation IV nuclear reactors . |
| 1281 | The new generation 4 nuclear reactor promises an excellent solution with its byproduct decaying in just decades . |
| 1282 | Lately , a number of new designs for nuclear power generation , known as Generation IV reactors , are the subject of active research and may lead to the revival of nuclear power in the future . |
| 1283 | Therefore , safety is highly guaranteed in the development and application of VHTR . |
| 1284 | The potential benefits of nuclear energy have led many countries to do extensive research and development on nuclear reactors . |
| 1285 | However , since environmental pollution has become one of the most important topics in the world nowadays , we also should pay more attention to clean energy such as solar energy . |
| 1286 | Many concepts are reviewed to improve the already competent nuclear reactors and so far , generation IV reactor concepts are among those which have stood up among the crowd that are worth developing |
| 1287 | One system-the Emergency Response Information System ( ERIS ) - has hence been developed to enhance the safety . |
| 1288 | All in all , the overwhelming advantages of LFR as a future implementation of the new generation IV nuclear plant , proves that it is better than the SFR in all of the above aspects . |
| 1289 | The cost advantage of nuclear energy is not so obvious here . |
| 1290 | They should also be updated about the latest methods to generate energy in environmentally friendly ways , such as through generating renewable energy like solar energy , tidal energy or wind energy , and their respective advantages and drawbacks . |
| 1291 | Systems have to be developed to improve the weather and make the air fresher which will , in turn , improve our health conditions . |
| 1292 | SFR is also chosen by the United States as their front runner for generation IV fast reactors due to its strong technology basis ( US DOE/NE 2006 ) . |
| 1293 | After testing for a few years , it has been found that , nuclear power plants work quite well . |
| 1294 | Indeed , there might be a decrease in the number of accidents in nuclear plants , in contrast to the thousands of death that happened in conventional energy plants . |
| 1295 | Therefore CNG vehicles are more environmentally friendly than gasoline vehicles . |
| 1296 | With the cost lowered , reactors can be massively built and commercialized . |
| 1297 | Thus , researchers have come up with generation four reactor concepts , hoping to ease the public 's worries . |
| 1298 | Hence , security of nuclear energy generation can be guaranteed and there is no need to worry too much about security . |
| 1299 | Therefore , this waste are not radioactive and it is much safer compared with the wastes of previous of reactors . |
| 1300 | The GFR 's fast spectrum makes it feasible to utilize available fissile and fertile materials ( including depleted uranium from enrichment plants ) . |
| 1301 | Yes , this is a drawback of the SFR ; however , scientists are working hard on it to find out the way to reduce the capital cost of the SFR and they have already made some achievements . |
| 1302 | This reduces burning of fossil fuels , like oil , which generates toxic gases . |
| 1303 | It is safer than VHTR as it has better safety standards . |
| 1304 | In conclusion , nuclear power is safe , clean and effective , which most people seem to forget . |
| 1305 | However , one particular reactor seems to address all these problems , the VHTR ( Very High Temperature Reactor ) . |
| 1306 | Solar energy is also environmental friendly like nuclear power and is free with the sunlight predicted to continue to radiate energy for another 5 billion years ( Arnett , 2009 ) . |
| 1307 | Nuclear Energy : Benefits for All Americans . |
| 1308 | However , since to ensure safety is the primary goal of MSR , it has good safety measures . |
| 1309 | Research and analysis for the use of machinery and better building processes can be done to curb the cost . |
| 1310 | " To complete a worldwide , fundamental energy overhaul , we need to exploit the vast , unfulfilled opportunities for fuel efficiency in electric motors , light bulbs , appliances and home heating and cooling . |
| 1311 | Thus , this results in a better security in the society . |
| 1312 | However , with the generation IV reactors coming up , especially the VHTR , maximum security is assured . |
| 1313 | Indeed , safety is ensured in the design of the VHTR and it should be further researched and developed . |
| 1314 | We will no longer be afraid of atmospheric pollution and greenhouse effect.What 's more,the energy we use is renewable.We will not be short of energy resource . |
| 1315 | Scientists and engineers are now thinking of developing a new generation of nuclear reactors that can solve many problems such as green-house effects , the rising prices of energy and the safety of nuclear reactors . |
| 1316 | Therefore , safety can be ensured for the VHTR . |
| 1317 | Cost and labor friendly procedures for house and flat construction could be adapted for cheaper production . |
| 1318 | The usage of the nuclear power plants is widely recognized and they are being integrated as part of those countries ' promising energy sources . |
| 1319 | One of the first things we can do to help conserve the environment is to switch from gasoline cars to eco-friendly cars . |
| 1320 | Thus , other reliable means of energy have been considered , of which , nuclear energy holds the greatest potential . |
| 1321 | Besides , the supercritical water reactor is can also be developed with a fast neutron spectrum due to the neutron will be only partly moderated in the supercritical water . |
| 1322 | In order to satisfy the needs , the generation IV reactor concept has been brought forward for further research and the utilization of nuclear power , and the Very High Temperature Reactor [ VHTR ] , which uses a graphite-moderated nuclear reactor with a once-through uranium fuel cycle under an outlet temperature of 1000 ° C , is one such concept . |
| 1323 | The serious global warming and the booming energy demand give nuclear power a chance back to the stage . |
| 1324 | These measures comprise regular 'force-on-force ' exercises to test the plant 's ability to react to attacks made on it , vehicle inspection at greater safety distance away from the plant , improved communication among different government organizations and stricter access to restricted sites ( Source : NRC , February 2005 ) . |
| 1325 | GFR utilizes the waste reprocessing method , which minimizes the public 's exposure to nuclear waste 's radioactivity ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 1326 | ( Ball , Roberts & Simpson , 1994 ) Therefore , we can say that nuclear plants are the safest to work in compared to other energy generation plants . |
| 1327 | Nuclear power is the most prominent and reliable energy source today . |
| 1328 | Shropshire and Herring ( 2004 ) claim that the heavy metal radioactive waste produced in VHTR is significantly low with every unit of energy generated and this is due to the plant 's high thermal efficiency and high fuel burn up . |
| 1329 | And this in turn , leads to higher market prices for electricity generated by nuclear means . |
| 1330 | Moreover , people are now aware of the importance of finding new , sustainable and eco-friendly energy sources . . |
| 1331 | There is therefore a need for a more environmentally friendly way to generate energy for our use . |
| 1332 | Hence , this will reinforce the competitiveness of GFR in the energy market of most industries . |
| 1333 | Most of the present research into the nuclear reactor designs is being directed into perfecting the series of reactors called the GENERATION IV REACTORS . |
| 1334 | It is obvious that spending more money on the development of nuclear power is quite reasonable . |
| 1335 | that the dominant VHTR has a better plant efficiency which indirectly implies that it requires 20 percent fewer tunnels to store its waste . |
| 1336 | So VHTR is environment friendly and the most optimized solution towards green house effect . |
| 1337 | Overall , MSR also operates at lower pressure than VHTR as low temperature results in lower pressure . |
| 1338 | Beside , SFR has advantage in disposal requirement , in which it is designed to reduce the amount of actinide in order to well manage the high level waste . |
| 1339 | In addition there will be a minimization of a risk of failing healthcare system as there is enough time to make changes and gradually adapt to them . |
| 1340 | The solution to energy crisis |
| 1341 | In addition , the coolant of the VHTR is much safer than the SFR . |
| 1342 | Thus , in terms of safety and security , the VHTR is actually much safer than the MSR . |
| 1343 | In summary , nuclear power is reliable , green and affordable . |
| 1344 | Therefore , even though nuclear power is certainly dangerous , it can still be safe to work with as long as the interaction between man and machine is designed carefully so that it will not fail . |
| 1345 | After all , electricity is also a perfect energy which has no side-effect on the environment . |
| 1346 | This function ensures VHTR is very safe under attacks . |
| 1347 | Likewise , VHTR is being designed with adequate safety precautions to prevent a tragedy from happening . |
| 1348 | Thus , nuclear power is a proper choice . |
| 1349 | Besides , land used for a nuclear plant is less than other alternatives . |
| 1350 | Generation IV nuclear reactor will allow mankind to fully realize the potential of nuclear power , thus encouraging further development on nuclear technology . |
| 1351 | The Very High Temperature Reactor will definitely have a bright future and everyone can benefit from it . |
| 1352 | The infrastructure required is much simpler , as only the solar panels and necessary wirings are needed . |
| 1353 | ( Bodansky , 2004 ) On the contrary , SCWR uses negative void coefficient instead , which could effectively reduce the possibility of this kind of fatal accident ( U.S DOE 2002 ) . |
| 1354 | The radioactive wastes produced might not necessarily incur health hazard if they are properly stored . |
| 1355 | The long-term waste will be substantially reduced in the core with a conversion ratio to be close to 1.0 ( Girardin , et al. , 2008 ) . |
| 1356 | It has an integrated fuel cycle , taking advantage of the great heat transport properties of molten salt ( Malten Salt Reactor ) . The reaction process keeps low pressure and low chemical reactivity . The mobile fission products are removed continuously . |
| 1357 | According to GIF , Generation IV ( Gen IV ) reactors when developed would be safe , economically competitive and proliferation-resistant . |
| 1358 | Research has been done by many countries to improve on generations of reactors , some of which are in operation now . |
| 1359 | These Generation IV reactors look into four main advancements , namely enhanced safety , proliferation resistance , waste minimization and economic viability . |
| 1360 | Therefore , it is feasible to design such a nuclear reactor . |
| 1361 | However , VHTR combines the latest safety features into its design . |
| 1362 | Although this process has just had initial achievements , it promises a fully potential energy source in the future which may permanently serve human kind . |
| 1363 | Thus , it is reasonable to assert that safety in the design of the VHTR is ensured . |
| 1364 | The design has an overall light protection by the lightweight body frame . |
| 1365 | This can to a great extent ensure its safety during its reaction . |
| 1366 | However , the development of material science has made the technology of microfiltration succeed . |
| 1367 | As a result , leaders of environmental organisations , such as Patrick Moore who is a cofounder of Greenpeace , are beginning to realise that nuclear power generation is one of the most secure , economical and environmentally- friendly energy sources available ( Yousefzadeh , 2007 ) . |
| 1368 | However , the MSR operates under an even safer condition . |
| 1369 | Because of the severe pollution problem , we have to focus on the development of solar energy . |
| 1370 | Therefore , in order to lower their cost of production , development of new materials is crucial . |
| 1371 | As mentioned in the previous point , funding from the government could have helped to reduce the strain on the firm running the plant . |
| 1372 | Another aspect of safety is the Proliferation Resistance and Physical Protection ( PR and PP ) . |
| 1373 | For the public , the problem of global warming and other environmental problems caused by emissions of fossil fuel will be eliminated . |
| 1374 | Both features prevent the occurrence of a fire . |
| 1375 | Solar and nuclear power are the more advanced technology . |
| 1376 | Genetic Discrimination Saves Lives . |
| 1377 | Though the costs incurred are higher for the MSR , it compensates by raising its efficiency . |
| 1378 | However , the cost is still cheaper in contrast to using fossil fuels to generate energy . |
| 1379 | As MSR has a liquid fuel , the reactor has the unique safety advantage that in the event of an accident , the fuel salt is dumped to critically safe , passively cooled storage tanks . |
| 1380 | The mankind 's battle against climate change is the catalyst that has fueled the search for renewable sources of energy ; it 's one of the few positive impacts of the global catastrophe that we are heading to . |
| 1381 | The entire safety procedure is fully automated and hence will put the VHTR a notch above the rest of the nuclear reactor concepts . |
| 1382 | However , the experts say that the Generation IV reactors will be less of a terrorist target ( GEN International Forum , 2006 ) . |
| 1383 | We should do both to deal with aging problem by making aging both more secure for older generations and less burdensome for younger generations . |
| 1384 | With GIF 's nuclear technology , the concerns of the public mentioned above would be addressed . |
| 1385 | As a result , the limitation of Uranium would be of less concern while considering the expansion of nuclear power . |
| 1386 | Therefore , Generation IV reactors are researched based on technological goals , especially nuclear safety . |
| 1387 | However , nuclear energy is completely clean . |
| 1388 | This process reduces the amount as well as the radioactive level of the final wastes . |
| 1389 | ( Order Code RS21131 , 2005 ) Furthermore , a decades-long test and analysis portrayed that actual radioactivity escaping from molten fuel is less than initial assumption as the nuclear activity slows down a lot when it is not in the internal structure of the reactor . |
| 1390 | This innovation has helped Sharp to achieve great success . |
| 1391 | Therefore , engineering processes of technologies that extract energy from fossil fuels must be superseded and new ones must be introduced to ensure a constant supply of energy for humans . |
| 1392 | However , with fossil fuel depleting fast ( Howden , 2007 ) , alternative sources of energy need to be explored ; hence research on nuclear power as an energy source should be carried out . |
| 1393 | on the contrary , it is more stable and reliable for conventional technology . |
| 1394 | As for the problem of energy reduction in transmission , it can be addressed by diversifying and complicating the structure of the body information . |
| 1395 | Global warming and rising energy demands are redefining the concept of nuclear power . |
| 1396 | With advanced electricity and capabilities , there are many countries like China , USA and Japan have chosen to develop VHTR systems as its priority . |
| 1397 | Nuclear reactors use energy generated from nuclear fission which has a very high output to material used ratio . |
| 1398 | This feature is the enhanced version of the safety system . |
| 1399 | First and the most concerned reason of all is that the VHTR guarantees a high degree of safety . |
| 1400 | According to research , VHTR is a thermal reactor which relies on moderators to slow down neutrons while Gas-cooled Fast Reactor , Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor and Lead-cooled Fast Reactor are relying on fast spectra . |
| 1401 | Although some technological problems still exist , nuclear power energy , as one of the energies of the future , will surely become more and more popular . |
| 1402 | There is a need for social control of higher security and safety . |
| 1403 | Safety is assured in the new system . |
| 1404 | Moreover , VHTR is the lowest risk technology . |
| 1405 | Supercritical water reactor could be further developed |
| 1406 | First of all , for the NUS eco-car innovation process , it is true that the development of eco-car is indeed environmentally friendly . |
| 1407 | Therefore , safety is ensured to the greatest possible level . |
| 1408 | That is why nuclear energy is said to be abundant . |
| 1409 | This feature alone already fulfills one of the main objectives of GIF which is to produce low cost electricity . |
| 1410 | The subsequent realization that the additional neutrons produced from fission reaction could induce a nuclear chain reaction has sparked off widespread interest in nuclear technology . |
| 1411 | With the numerous benefits of nuclear energy , there is no doubt that nuclear energy should be used . |
| 1412 | Furthermore , the rate of poverty will be lower . |
| 1413 | To sum up , the Emergency Response Information System is a effective system that protects the public if an incident happens . |
| 1414 | Thanks to its different operation that involves molten salt , a MSR eliminates the fuel enrichment and fuel fabrication , both of which are major expenses for traditional reactors . |
| 1415 | The idea of MSR is that it will produce less waste and be able to recycle it . |
| 1416 | In addition , deep processing of fossil fuels also needs engineering design to improve the utilization of fossil fuels . |
| 1417 | Besides , Generation IV reactors employ nuclear materials , which are less suitable , or less prone to diversion for use in nuclear weapon . |
| 1418 | ( Venere , E. New biofuels process promises to meet all U.S. transportation needs . |
| 1419 | With these features taken into consideration , the thought of building the new generation IV reactors is getting more real . |
| 1420 | In order to resolve these problems , a new generation of nuclear energy system which is called the Fourth Generation reactors is undergoing tests . |
| 1421 | Hence safety of society is ensured . |
| 1422 | In addition , the focus of the Gen IV reactor concepts is on the use of inherent safety features and designs . |
| 1423 | MSR , on the other hand , is proved to be much safer compared to VHTR . |
| 1424 | Secondly , VHTR is environmental friendly and sustainable . |
| 1425 | Engineering design process is a tedious one and by analysing the problems that hamper it , one may be able to make the process a smoother one . |
| 1426 | To sum up , the Generation IV reactors is a trend of the 21st century . It will make a great improvement and progress for our life . |
| 1427 | Hence , the supporters believe that the new generation of nuclear reactors should make use of this technology . |
| 1428 | To reduce heat trapped within the atmosphere , carbon dioxide level has to be reduced . |
| 1429 | The High Cost of Nuclear Power : Why America should choose a clean energy future over new nuclear reactors [ Monograph ] . |
| 1430 | But the truth is nuclear power can do more than what has been mentioned . |
| 1431 | Launching of sunshades has two ; firstly it provides enough time to change our lifestyle permanently , for example,... reducing reducing poultry consumption poultry consumption and reducing ... the usage of non-environmental friendly materials . |
| 1432 | Workers are protected as well , thanks to the intelligent fuel system . |
| 1433 | Furthermore , with the six generation IV reactor concepts coming out , especially the VHTR , I firmly believe all the difficulties will be resolved in the near future . |
| 1434 | First , VHTR has very good safety features . |
| 1435 | And that is before taking into account the benefits of zero greenhouse gas emissions . |
| 1436 | Nuclear reactor produces a large amount of energy relative to the average fossil fuel combustion . |
| 1437 | Hence , to minimise the physical problems and vulnerabilities of the people . |
| 1438 | The power , an amount of energy generated in a unit of time , of a nuclear plant is highest among the others' . |
| 1439 | According to Butler ( 2004 ) , S.C.W.R is cheap due to its simple design compare to generation III reactors . |
| 1440 | More recently , environmental concerns and rising energy demands are putting nuclear power back into the energy equation . |
| 1441 | Therefore , VHTR is a very safe and secure prototype of the generation IV reactor . |
| 1442 | If the research in the material is financially supported well , this material obstacle will be overcome by that time . |
| 1443 | Nuclear power plants have been widely deployed in many leading countries in the world such as United States , Japan , and China which use the nuclear power plants as one of their main power sources to propel the energy industry . |
| 1444 | Therefore , the VHTR is 'meltdown proof ' and it provides maximum safety and reassurance . |
| 1445 | Actually , global warming and energy crisis have been extremely popular topics these years and large proportion of the governments ' revenue has been spent on the research and development of new energy resources , such as solar energy and tidal power . |
| 1446 | This goes to show that how great the potential of nuclear power . |
| 1447 | Unless a new source of sustainable energy is discovered , continuous research and development of nuclear energy should be conducted in order to sustain the economies of the world . |
| 1448 | Even though VHTR still needs further research in heat-resistant fuels and materials , it has developed fast though early cold fast neutron reactor and Pebble Bed Modular Reactor . |
| 1449 | Ongoing research and implementation are initiated to allow the world to accept such emergence comfortably . |
| 1450 | Safety is ensured in the design of the VHTR . |
| 1451 | However , these problems can be solved using the Gen IV technology . |
| 1452 | To save the environment , we need nuclear energy urgently , excluding nuclear reprocessing . |
| 1453 | Considering the fact that global warming has becoming an increasingly serious problem nowadays , the development of nuclear power is quite necessary . |
| 1454 | MSRs handle the situation by having excellent safety measures to handle emergencies . |
| 1455 | Thus , it is logical that nuclear power receives the lion 's share of funding as it is our best option . |
| 1456 | The difference between the cost of nuclear and conventional power plants is perhaps the most important factor in the research and development of the former . |
| 1457 | Other measures include bullet-proof barriers in important areas , intruding detecting devices , detection zones that are illuminated , well equipped and trained security personnel on daily duty and protection against intrusion of network by outsiders ( Nuclear Energy Institute ( NEI ) , July 2009 ) . |
| 1458 | The most popular energy is nuclear energy . |
| 1459 | The use of surveillance technology could increase the level of security and safekeeping of a country . |
| 1460 | As it is developed based on current reactors , such as Boiling Water Reactors ( BWR ) , a lot of research could be done on existing facilities . |
| 1461 | In fact , nuclear energy now has been one of the main energy sources to generate electricity in many countries . |
| 1462 | This reduces storage time . |
| 1463 | These are feedback controls of safety . |
| 1464 | " Nuclear power is going to be an important part of our energy mix ! |
| 1465 | Furthermore , advanced research will bring the cost down in the future . |
| 1466 | Moreover , there is a requirement of research in these technologies , as there is the risk of exhaustion and harmful effects due to the excessive use of fossil fuels . |
| 1467 | To address this situation , a variety of Generation IV nuclear reactors is developed . |
| 1468 | It should be evident that arguments regarding safety , cost , as well as better performance are addressed . |
| 1469 | This is indeed true . However , the ongoing HTTR ( High-Temperature Engineering Test Reactor ) project in Japan gives us a clue that it is not impossible to develop a new strong material in the future . |
| 1470 | On the other hand , Nuclear energy does not have all these limitations . |
| 1471 | In summary , developing countries should develop nuclear reactors for several reasons . |
| 1472 | In conclusion , nuclear energy may have some seeming advantages ; however , the problems associated with it are not negligible . |
| 1473 | Some people argue that the deaths per year in nuclear plants are much fewer than that in coal mines . |
| 1474 | Despite the two major accidents , nuclear power is actually very safe . |
| 1475 | Many reactor designs are being considered to meet the generation IV goals of today . |
| 1476 | Eventually , in the long-run , the fixed cost would be minimal . |
| 1477 | This in turn reduces the volume of material disposed of since plutonium and uranium make up almost 97 % of the entire mass of fuel used in generating nuclear energy . |
| 1478 | This includes extensive research on materials that can withstand high temperature and that are stronger and corrosion resistant . |
| 1479 | The concept of Generation IV Nuclear Energy System ( NES ) is able to meet this demand and its implementation is inevitable . |
| 1480 | When GIF have found out the proper method of recycling , the public can live with ease nearby nuclear reactor plants . |
| 1481 | ' ( ) , it discussed about the growing appreciation of the impact that city and regional authorities can have in making practical preparations for an electrified road transport system . |
| 1482 | The original lead-bismuth proposed for use in the ( LFR ) will also be replaced by lead , further decreasing the cost of the coolant by 10 times ( Tucek , 2005 ) . |
| 1483 | Regulatory systems will create more strict safety measures . |
| 1484 | Hence , it will help in decreasing the Chlorofluorocarbons ( CFCs ) gases emitted which harms the ozone layer . |
| 1485 | Besides , defending systems are enhanced and increased when a plant is built . |
| 1486 | How do we meet the power needs of the growing world with this limited power sources we have ? |
| 1487 | However , VHTR is being designed to avoid such circumstances . |
| 1488 | ) , there are basic strategies , which policy makers and governments can consider implementing to lessen the burdens of older generations to the younger . |
| 1489 | The SCWR has safety measures such as physical resistance against terrorist attacks . |
| 1490 | The advent of the electric fan was a great success and it was implemented around the world . |
| 1491 | In recent years , we have seen that nuclear power is one of the main sources for generating electrical energy . |
| 1492 | It addresses the public 's concern about safety with a very comprehensive safeguard system . |
| 1493 | However , the operating and maintenance costs are much lower as compared to the start up cost . |
| 1494 | According to research , the radioactivity for the VHTR waste is relatively small compared with the other reactors . |
| 1495 | Moreover , there is added protection with the stronger frame . |
| 1496 | Nuclear power is inevitably becoming one of the most important supplies . |
| 1497 | Although there may be many valid concerns , VHTR is the best in safety and performance . |
| 1498 | Researchers have proposed new generation IV reactors , which are targeted at answering these pressing concerns . |
| 1499 | There is much research going on in U.S. , China and Japan to improve the Very-High-Temperature Reactors . |
| 1500 | Day by day , these kinds of natural energies will finally show their advantages and occupy an important place in our industrial development . |
| 1501 | There are many internal and external facilities built to ensure secure operation . |
| 1502 | As global energy demands are predicted to soar relentlessly , nuclear energy is a prominent resource . |
| 1503 | VHTR concept has handled the issue on security . |
| 1504 | Furthermore , due to the depletion of unrenewable energy such as coal and fossil fuel , , scientists scientists in many countries have started to seek a new source of energy , which is nuclear energy . |
| 1505 | Amongst the available technologies , the VHTR is the safest as mentioned above . |
| 1506 | To address these concerns , experts proposed several designs for the next generation of reactors . |
| 1507 | Hence , safety should not be an issue with modern nuclear technology . |
| 1508 | With the fuel prices soaring up , fossil fuel reserves dwindling and increased pressure to tackle climate change and global warming , nuclear energy is back in the agenda of many countries . |
| 1509 | As Mr. Butler ( 2004 ) said , " Global warming and rising energy needs are rehabilitating the concept of nuclear power . |
| 1510 | I think we already have enough reasons to make full use of nuclear power to benefit the whole world as well as our future generations . |
| 1511 | Their governments funded nuclear research and the setting up of more nuclear reactors . |
| 1512 | To date , many countries spearheaded by the GIF ( Generation 4 international forum ) have already launched their plans to the construction of some generation 4 nuclear reactors on their native soil , with promises of a more efficient and cleaner reactor concept . |
| 1513 | If addressed , it will be able to meet the Generation IV goals . |
| 1514 | Although nuclear power plant has its disadvantages , it also has its advantages too . |
| 1515 | VHTRs are also designed to be proliferation resistant . |
| 1516 | In the meantime , this is impossible but at the rate which environmental organizations are progressing , I envision the day where we have zero dependence on coal for energy and SCWR takes its place at full speed ! |
| 1517 | Many developed countries are starting to express interest in this new nuclear technology and some have even formed a consortium to pool their expertise and funding to carry out research on the six most promising prospects for the future Gen IV reactors . |
| 1518 | In short , VHTR has good safety conttrol . |
| 1519 | In some countries , nuclear energy plays an important role in power production . |
| 1520 | People are very performance oriented and yet safety and cost conscious . |
| 1521 | Hence , this selection proves the safeness of VHTR . |
| 1522 | In this way , the capital cost of the SFR was reduced . |
| 1523 | In the long run , the government must seek to for the older generation , at the same time less burdensome for the younger generation . |
| 1524 | To sum up , the VHTR is highly safe and reliable . |
| 1525 | Our Energy , http : //www.our- energy.com/nuclear_technology_produces_high_amount_of_energy.html |
| 1526 | Engineers have to identify the problems such as producing a transport that does not run on fossil fuel . |
| 1527 | VHTR will have many safety features included to make it terrorist proof as well . |
| 1528 | Kazuo ( 2006 ) said that by adopting high chromium steel with higher strength and lower thermal expansion , the capacity of the heat exchangers and the flow rate in the pipe got enlarged , so that the piping could be shortened and the loop number also got reduced . |
| 1529 | The principal challenges today are sustainable development and climate change and how society can decide on a fair distribution of resources and energy as well as a radical reduction of CO2 emissions CITATION Aus07 \ l 1033 ( Austrian Institute of Ecology , 2007 ) . |
| 1530 | Nevertheless , the scenario of no fuel resources left and increasing extreme weather caused by global warming nowadays have pushed us to reconsider nuclear power . |
| 1531 | The Growing Need for Nuclear Energy . |
| 1532 | The difference is that it extends the time needed to find more sources of electricity , probably nuclear fusion . |
| 1533 | However , most importantly , the extra cost of the system must be valid and used in an effective way . |
| 1534 | In order to stoop global warming , we must reduce carbon dioxide production . |
| 1535 | Although Generation IV nuclear energy systems have so many advantages and plans for four systems have been finalized ( Gen IV International Forum,2007 ) , public opposition questions whether further research and development are still needed for them . |
| 1536 | Corrosion-resistance is excellent for this material . |
| 1537 | The importance of nuclear energy in the global economy . |
| 1538 | Last but not least , the theories and technologies of Very-High-Temperature Reactor are quite mature already . It is feasible to make it come true . |
| 1539 | This is why the concentration of the heavy metal radioactive matter in the VHTR waste is relatively low . |
| 1540 | At the same time , the poverty rate can be decreased . |
| 1541 | Nuclear Energy is the most certain future source . |
| 1542 | The U.S. is the country with the most nuclear power plants , and is well known for their technology in this area . |
| 1543 | For this reason , SFR pays special attention to safety issues . |
| 1544 | Nuclear energy is definitely the one and the best choice of energy . |
| 1545 | Therefore , safety is ensured step by step . |
| 1546 | " It is unlikely that we can meet our aggressive climate goals if we eliminate nuclear power as an option . |
| 1547 | The world is encountering an unprecedented challenge which requires urgent global action to prevent the risks of climate change ( Stern , 2008 ) . |
| 1548 | Nuclear energy is the most concentrated source in terms of energy generation . |
| 1549 | The power output of this reactor is electricity . |

| 488 | This is an example of how social policies with regard to architecture can make life easier for the elderly . |
| 489 | This argument goes on to assert that because the expenditure of time and money on caring as well as buying medicine for the elderly is enormous , public spending on the aged will help young people concentrate more on their work and improve their quality of life . |
| 490 | These strategies have helped to ensure that the elderly are self-sufficient during their old age and also allowed them to live in a more conducive and barrier-free environment . |
| 491 | Current housing developments and policies have provided better choice to enhance the quality of life of older people . |
| 492 | In conclusion , the elderly are able to lead a better life with the help of all these products . |
| 493 | As a country progressing towards a gracious society and thus development , rationality leads towards addressing these aging issues . |
| 494 | Technological inventions can help the elderly overcome the limitations of their body due to old age or sickness , and in a way , prevent accidents from happening due to these limitations . |
| 495 | Hence , the progress of the world in aspects of technology , economy and social policies have by far proven to be beneficial to the elderly of today 's society . |
| 496 | However , the country 's modernization should be prioritized , as this helps to improve the welfare of the elderly in the long run . |
| 497 | Elderly people are eased in the aging process by technologies that retain |
| 498 | Many countries have taken this step to lighten the burden of the elderly . |

| 504 | With such leaps in the field of medicine , health problems associated with aging no longer are such big issues as before , allowing people to have greater quality of life in their twilight years . |
| 505 | With these functions , this robot may bring great convenience to the life of the elderly and ease the aging problem if it can be industrialized . |
| 506 | This not only keeps the elderly mind active , it also helps them to cope financially with rising medical costs and brings in self-satisfaction for being able to contribute to the society . |
| 507 | Therefore , science and technology has eased the aging process . |
| 508 | In a nutshell , it is undeniable that in this globalization era , research , development and policies have been doing their part in easing the aging process . |
| 509 | The existence of the new policies for helping the elderly in many fields , such as economy , social , and technology , shows that both the government and society care about the elderly . |
| 510 | Getting more elderly to get free health screening can ensure health problems to be treated at an early stage thus reducing the cost of expensive treatments when symptoms turn serious . |
| 511 | ( Khalik , 2009 . Such a forward-looking policy helps to ensure adequate care and concern for the elderly , helping to ease their aging process . |
| 512 | The aging process can be eased by increasing birth rates , increasing workforce productivity and reducing the physical and psychological aspects of aging . |
| 513 | Hence , with a safer environment and with the provision of elder-friendly infrastructure and unhindered access to the public facilities , the elderly will be allowed to move about freely and enjoy their old age . |
| 514 | This involvement has freed people from demanding and repetitive jobs and at the same time increased the efficiency of production . |
| 515 | Further emphasis by governments with regard to public architecture has also made aging easier . |
| 516 | Most of the policies aim to reduce the problems associated with an aging population . |
| 517 | Thanks to the technology development , our life is much easier now . |
| 518 | The aged now mostly spend their retirement staying healthy and thus prevent diseases or damaged accidents more efficiently . |
| 519 | Nowadays , the living standards of human beings has been improved due to the changes in time . |
| 520 | Clearly , the aging process can be eased by current research and development . |

| 526 | The creativity and need for ever improving lifestyle have led to new inventions to ease our lives . |
| 527 | The current research and development in technological products and architectural improvement have helped the elderly to cope with the diffculties they may face at old age . |
| 528 | In view of this growing trend , government agencies and local service providers came out with some very innovative and creative designs to ease the everyday life of elderly . |
| 529 | Through a healthy and active lifestyle the elderly are able to live longer and stay free from illness |
| 530 | Both innovations bring benefit to the lives of people . |
| 531 | From all of these above arguments , we can conclude that government can use science and technology as an effective way to ease the aging process . |
| 532 | In addition , elderly are having higher life expectancies rate due to the advancement of medical healthcares and technologies . |
| 533 | Thus , most elderly will be able to stay physically healthier when they are able to receive professional treatment and medication which may be easier for them to take care of themselves in their old age . |
| 534 | Breakthroughs in the medical research field , not only provide a cushion for the aged with regards to old age illnesses but also help to reduce their future medical expenditure . |
| 535 | Of all the different aspects of development that have been done to ease the aging process , the most significant field is medicine . |
| 536 | Therefore , we could conclude that this act is efficient in dealing with the aging population . |
| 537 | As such , they can age with more convenience and hence improving their connectivity with others . |
| 538 | The government is currently carrying out research and implementing policies to help to ease the aging process for both the elderly and the country . |
| 539 | For instance , accessible infrastructure provides a safe and comfortable environment for the elderly to use in their their old age . |
| 540 | The developments of current researches , especially in the field of science and technology have benefitted the older population greatly . |
| 541 | These improvements in the infrasuture of the older estates make the estates more accessible for the elderly . |
| 542 | Inventing new machines or having new medical methods to cure diseases not just saves more people and decreases the deaths , it can also help to prolong one 's lifespan . |
| 543 | Thus , all these researches in medical field have aided the aging process tremendously . |
| 544 | It would bring great contentment if the product is fully used and is able to save human life . |
| 545 | It not only helps slow down the aging process but also facilitates acceptance of old age . |
| 546 | This in turn will provide a positive mentality to better prepare them for their old age . |
| 547 | The current development of new community hospitals which link up with the main hospitals is an example of a measure that will ease the aging process . |
| 548 | Hence , the vision sight assistive or replacement technologies help the elderly to see better and do simple tasks . |
| 549 | To ease such worries of the younger generation , developments in Architecture have the means to solve such problems . |
| 550 | This could be in the form of less illness associated with old age and more activities available for older ones to participate in . |
| 551 | Numerous innovations have been developed to ease the problems faced by everyone . |
| 552 | Lastly , the rapid development of a nation 's economy not only makes the process of aging slow down but also partially solves its annoying consequences . |
| 553 | Developments in the future will be expected to be much better , and though aging process is inevitable its inconveniences can be minimized . |
| 554 | To sum it up , social policies that influence architectural designs do play an important role in easing the aging process . |
| 555 | Hence , the CPF has indeed helped to ease the aging process and the financial burden of the elderly as it requires people to save in advance and also informs citizens on how much they should save in order to be self- sufficient for their old age . |
| 556 | Therefore , I agree that current research and development in the field of medicine have eased the aging process . |
| 557 | The reduced dependency on others will ease the pain of aging . |
| 558 | However , several factors can help ease people 's concern . |
| 559 | The developments of housing and infrastructure have helped to meet elderly people 's physical , social and recreational needs , as well as to facilitate their integration into the community . |
| 560 | Thus , one can see how extensive this research being carried out to ease the aging process of mankind is. . |
| 561 | It also contributes to providing applicable solutions to ease the greying population which is gradually growing in society . |
| 562 | The advancement of technology also enables the elderly to be more independent and perform activities that they like . |
| 563 | Through making the gathering process easier and more reliable , it saves time , effort and resources of people . |
| 564 | It will help reduce the burden of the younger generations when the government put more emphasis on the aged . |
| 565 | This acts as a safety net to dramatically reduce the need for elder dependency . |
| 566 | Thus far , The government has introduced some new economic policies to ease the aging process . |
| 567 | Therefore , feasible solutions are in need of implementation to ease the aging process . |
| 568 | It slows human 's aging speed , makes up human 's deficiencies when they grow old , and promises a brighter future that human can look forward to . |
| 569 | Thus making it possible for people to live comfortably now . |
| 570 | All these create a safe and accessible environment to the elderly . |
| 571 | The idea is to simplify the design as much as possible so that the elderly who have low vision problems will find it easy to use . |
| 572 | These two approaches have helped to make an elder-friendly physical environment . |
| 573 | While the government focuses its expenditure on improving healthcare products and treatments , it is also important that the elderly maintain a healthy lifestyle . |
| 574 | It is a process for utilizing opportunities in health , to enhance the quality of life of ageing citizens . |
| 575 | Seeing that , the policies or acts that were implemented under Building Construction Authority ( BCA ) and Housing Development Board ( HDB ) have improved the standard of living for the people . |
| 576 | Therefore , it is proven that social policies have to work together with the older generation 's effort to ease the aging process . |
| 577 | With an increase in salary and bonus , it will allow one to save during their economically active years and also help them to slow down deteriorating health that will continue into old age . one will have the ability to pay for their healthcare cost in order to cure any illnesses before it continues into old age . |
| 578 | But with the development of medicine from the East or West , people can not only live to their old age , but to live their old age in a more comfortable way as well . |
| 579 | However , with strong effort , many things can be done to help our elderly . |
| 580 | Other sectors should collaborate to produce the best solutions to ease the ageing population . |
| 581 | Thus , several policies which have helped to ease the consequences are being put in place . |
| 582 | This technology usually helps to ameliorate the health of users such as improving blood circulation , which helps users to have a healthier body ; especially for elders who tend to have weaker bodies . |
| 583 | Coupled with high-quality healthcare , life expectancy has also increased . |
| 584 | The development in the field of economics has surprisingly contributed to easing the aging population problem . |
| 585 | This solution will benefit everyone in the long term . |
| 586 | However with technology improving drastically , many new innovative technologies have surfaced to assist the elderly . |
| 587 | Besides that , through advanced technology , it can further help to lighten the workload and burden of the government . |
| 588 | However , though technology has helped the ageing process through improvements in mobility , socially and mentally , to the elderly , family and friends are ultimately one of the most important aspects to them .They can help them with money issues ; meet their social needs and provide a home for them . |
| 589 | In conclusion , I agree to a great extent that social policies such as the implementation of the baby bonuses and the introduction of immigrants into our society will help to ease the ageing process . |
| 590 | Last but not least , surveillance technology also helps in improving the welfare of both patients and the elderly people . |
| 591 | It not only lightens the burden of government but also gives a sense of security to the citizens . |
| 592 | Furthermore , working can help to decrease boredom in retirement , as time will then be spent engaging in productive activities at work , and not be whiled away doing nothing . |
| 593 | These devices make an impact in their lives by providing them an alternative to ease their problems . |
| 594 | Besides that , incentives are also being provided for the elderly to further motivate them in conducting health checks . |
| 595 | Technologies thus make aging much safer for the elderly . |
| 596 | Such installation of elderly-friendly features enhances the mobility of older residents . |
| 597 | However , with the help of science and technology , treatments for cataract are more accessible to the elderly and more manageable in terms of cost and risk . |
| 598 | This programme comprises of health checks , talks on how to engage the elderly socially , as well as activities that help them adopt healthier lifestyles . |
| 599 | Well , technologies are there to supposedly to improve our way of life . |
| 600 | This would ease the burden on the younger generations having to support the aged . |
| 601 | These policies all have the common intention of promoting the value of an extended family staying together for mutual care and support which will in turn ease the aging process of the elderly . |
| 602 | Research has shown that improvements in health and welfare increase life expectancy . |
| 603 | Firstly , economics have helped ease the aging process . |
| 604 | Fortunately , the government has already recognized the importance of such services to ease the aging process . |
| 605 | If the government reserve more money on the medical care for the elderly , absolutely they 'll be more satisfied with their life . |
| 606 | However , in conjunction with the positive feedback of modern technologies , the elderly in this era are enjoying a much more comfortable lifestyle compared to decades ago . |
| 607 | One of the main solutions to be offered is the economic policy that eases the financial situation of the elderly . |
| 608 | Upgrading of housing by the HDB , particularly for the households with elderly residents , has helped to ease the aging process . |
| 609 | We can ease the aging problem from different angles . |
| 610 | One similarity between both categories is achieving the aim of improving the quality of life for people . |
| 611 | With strong support on research , new breakthrough can be discovered to cure chronic illnesses or age related diseases . |
| 612 | The government can also hold " Healthy Lifestyle " campaigns to encourage the aged to engage more actively in activities , and promote healthy aging . |
| 613 | Advancement in technology has made aging much more pleasurable and enjoyable than before . |
| 614 | This help to solve the problem they face during their aging process , allowing them to travel and socialise without being bound by physical restriction . |
| 615 | However , as the technology becomes more and more advanced , countries will be able to tap into the newer technologies and develop more elder-friendly inventions that eventually ease and slow the aging process . |
| 616 | Over the years , the life expectancy of people increases due to factors such as better hygiene and improved healthcare . |
| 617 | Science , Technology and Social Policies Ease the Aging Population |
| 618 | I believe that measures to ease ageing issues can be done at a low cost and can be at the same time . |
| 619 | Immigration policy has helped to ease the aging process . |
| 620 | This policy has been implemented smoothly , since both the government and citizens can benefit from it . |
| 621 | However , a lot of money and efforts have been put in by governments , companies and scientists worldwide to do research in aging in order to slow down the aging process and also help to resolve some health problems that are caused by aging . |
| 622 | While such inventions allow the elders to live independently , they also lower the chance of feeling old , weak , and incapable of doing things . |
| 623 | Furthermore , the introduction of the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , a mandatory saving scheme , is also a policy carried out by the government to ease the aging process . |
| 624 | With technological advancement , pressure on economy can be eased . |
| 625 | However , technology has implemented various innovative solutions to help people solve these problems and many users find them very useful in their lives . |
| 626 | Besides homes , Architecture has made the community more user-friendly for the elderly . |
| 627 | This can not only stimulate economic growth , but also buffer the rate of aging population . |
| 628 | It is undeniable that research and development is important to ease the greying population . |
| 629 | Other than the expenses , science and medical discovery is one of most important factors that will help ease the aging process . |
| 630 | Housing policies and schemes play a critical role in easing the aging process . |
| 631 | Policies to upgrade housing in Singapore have improved the living conditions of the elderly , together with the setting up of the senior citizens ' corners I am convinced that the elderly can now participate more actively in the society and live off with a higher social well being . |
| 632 | The simplicity of this device made it more adoptable for elderly people . |
| 633 | Despite the differences between the ways by which the technologies are created , they help to improve the life of mankind be it through convenience or through any other means . |
| 634 | Hence , economics , in some ways , is providing a useful helping hand to ease the aging process . |
| 635 | Healthcare for the elderly is important in order to enable them to lead better lives . |
| 636 | However , the aim of government is to enable people in its country to live better and happier . |
| 637 | Last but not least , I strongly agree that medical advancement has eased the aging process with the help of the Singapore government . |
| 638 | Housing schemes and building an elderly-friendly environment would definitely allow the elderly to live more comfortably |
| 639 | This way , specialized and better care can be provided for the elderly . |
| 640 | We want to make our lives more comfortable and convenient . |
| 641 | Secondly , science and technology have eased aging in various ways . |
| 642 | Such improvements indisputably made our lives more enjoyable and our work more effective . |
| 643 | In this process , the attractiveness and practicality of the inventions are improved such that they can be converted into useful products which are accepted by most people . |
| 644 | [ 5 ] Technology is also able to relieve the elderly in this situation , for example the " HipSaver Hip Protector " is designed to help prevent elderly from sustaining fractures and minimize the forces of impact if they really fall . |
| 645 | To achieve this goal , current research and development , as well as policies have helped to ease the aging process in different fields , like psychology , medicine , etc. Nevertheless , the situation of the fast ageing population in Singapore continues to be challenging , despite the various research and development , and policies . |
| 646 | Therefore , although all these approaches have only provided limited ways of easing the aging process , they still offer a feasible and practical approach . |
| 647 | High-tech equipment and medication are available for the treatment of more illnesses as our understanding of medicine improves . Governments nowadays are also doing more for the elderly population in their society . |
| 648 | Eventually , the average lifespan of a human would be prolonged with such devices since early detection of illness would be easier to treat and cure . |
| 649 | To ease the aging process , it is of utmost importance to build a safe environment for the elderly . |
| 650 | The findings were used for the prevention of these illnesses , thus the elderly who are more prone to these diseases are able to take more precaution with their health . |
| 651 | Therefore , allowing more employable immigrants into the country may be one of the social policies that can help to ease the aging process . |
| 652 | This implies that as long as the elderly keep themselves healthy , lesser burden will be placed on the government . |
| 653 | By housing them in close vicinity , it actually adds purpose to the lives of the elderly as well . |
| 654 | Also , another side effect of improved healthcare technologies is that people tend to have a longer lifespan . |
| 655 | Thus , compulsory saving can help guarantee a sizable amount of saving for their future and is a practical and effective way to ensure old age dependency is being kept to the minimum . |
| 656 | Indeed , the government has come up with numerous policies and measures to help smooth the process of aging . |
| 657 | Having better medical facilities and better standard of living , people live longer now . |
| 658 | All these helped to lessen the elderly 's problems of hearing , seeing or moving properly . |
| 659 | After all , nowadays research and development in technology has eventually provided a variety of gadgets that suit the elderly and help them handle the aging process . |
| 660 | These technological inventions enable the elderly to live independently and with these helpful inventions , they will no longer be classified as burdens . |
| 661 | There are also many active lifestyle movements that encourage the elderly to keep fit and keep in touch with the latest technologies in the world . |
| 662 | These enhancements in estate architectures to improve the safety of the elderly are fully subsidized by the government . |
| 663 | In this manner , the aging process is eased . |
| 664 | At this moment in time , research and development still continues on to discover new findings and new medical inventions to help ease the aging process and also improve the quality of healthcare for the aged . |
| 665 | Nowadays , the life expectancy of people has increased thanks to the healthcare technology which keeps getting better . |
| 666 | However , it does prove that current technological advancement is indeed effective in prolonging the population 's life span . |
| 667 | More elderly friendly facilities in the neighbourhood of the elderly should be built and good values such as giving up seats to the elderly should be taught to the public to help the elderly to cope with their daily lives . |
| 668 | Thus , easing their aging process and allowing them to lead a normal life . |
| 669 | Measures to ease the aging process include architecture upgrades and restructuring of healthcare system . |
| 670 | Although critics of this position point out that technology is still short of significantly slowing aging , current research and development has to a large extent eased this process and made life easier through the introduction of technological inventions . |
| 671 | To conclude , revealing of the positive results is essential to help not only the carriers , but also their family psychologically and physically . |
| 672 | In addition , having more babies will reduce our median age and also solve our problem with an aging population . |
| 673 | Technology is something which is created to help solving the problems we face in our daily life and at the same time , improve the quality of our life . |
| 674 | Have present studies , development and policies helped to relieve the aging process ? |
| 675 | Moreover , living in a clean and fresh environment is better for everyone 's health , including the elderly . |
| 676 | In this manner , the one-child policy helps to ease the aging process as well . |
| 677 | Citizens will have an easier life after their retirement . |
| 678 | Innovations are for the betterment of the living conditions of humans , especially and convenience in their life . |
| 679 | In conclusion , the aging process is indeed one that is difficult to cope with but with the current medical technologies and a wide range of social policies and reforms the elderly are more protected . |
| 680 | Besides , it helps to solve other social issues than just the aging problem . |
| 681 | Furthermore , people , being a country 's most valuable asset who have once contributed to the economy during their prime , should be entitled to all these inventions which will make their age transition less painful . |
| 682 | This is a significant research to help to ease the aging process as we know heart diseases are common among the elderly . |
| 683 | This saves time and can potentially save a life . |
| 684 | To oversee the progress of how the nation can ease the aging process , the Ministerial Committee on Ageing was set up to ensure " an inter-ministry approach to prepare for rapid population ageing " ( MCYS , September 12 , 2009a ) . |
| 685 | This increase in life expectancy has been said to be the result of better public health care and advances in medical care . |
| 686 | The current state of science and technology is able to diminish aging effect of the aging population and enhance their living so that they can enjoy their twilight years . |
| 687 | They should also be aware that the elderly are now healthier and are capable of supporting themselves . |
| 688 | However as technology advances , new and improve innovations are created to help elderly solve such awkward problems . |
| 689 | Population ageing has also been intensified by increases in life expectancy at older ages because of education , improved healthcare , and technology . |
| 690 | Clinical R&D continuously introduce people to healthier living styles , bring in more efficacious , safer and cheaper medical treatments , which allows people to look young and stay healthy so that they are still able to work actively in middle or even old age . |
| 691 | Technology and its advancements have given medical science the forefront to ease the aging process . |
| 692 | With improved medical facilities these days , the life expectancy of the population has increased . |
| 693 | Better solutions are hoped to be found in order to help the elderly with their health issues . |
| 694 | By maintaining a socially active lifestyle , the elderly are more resistance to health problems as they are able to keep both their mind and body active and healthy . |
| 695 | By having these elderly friendly inventions , it increases convenience and elderly would be able to better operate their television with their blur vision and there will not be too much strain on their eyes when they look and use the remote control . |
| 696 | The changes made to the interest rate of the CPF for savings in the SMRA will provide a social safety net for the elderly , while the increase in elderly- related products and studio apartments further eases the physical restrictions of an elderly . |
| 697 | Many tasks in life are made easy with technology . |
| 698 | Also , senior volunteer opportunities are abound to effectively tap on the skills of retirees and ensure their mental well-being . |
| 699 | There are several solutions proposed to ease this problem . |
| 700 | Still , having advanced research and expertise in the field of medicine has led to increased lifespan of people . |
| 701 | Thus , technologies discovered in these two ways have the same goal , which is to improve the quality of our life . |
| 702 | But the government has done much to relieve these two and other similar problems . |
| 703 | Moreover , the electrical devices in our daily life these days such as computers , televisions , washing machines... also make life more convenient , pleasant and comfortable for the aged . |
| 704 | Shortly , with the development in medical aspect , it could be fairly assured that elderly healthcare would be improved . |
| 705 | In this way , the sharing of information improves the welfare of mankind . |
| 706 | Not only will the elderly become more financially able , they will also attain a sense of belonging in the society and purpose in their lives . |
| 707 | First and foremost , the progress of technology increases the country 's income so that the country can take better care of the elderly . |
| 708 | Thus , this not only benefits the elders , it also benefits the general public as a whole . |
| 709 | Home design helps to ease the aging process |
| 710 | In the simplest terms , it refers to helping the elderly to age with convenience , to age with ease , and to age with grace . |
| 711 | This is due to the fact that our services for the population are now improving day by day . |
| 712 | At the same time , research reveals that these people can often be productive and healthy even after retirement . |
| 713 | It provides a sense of financial security for the elderly as high medical costs would be highly subsidised . |
| 714 | More importantly , the country has also ensured the well-being of its citizens . |
| 715 | This will not only make them feel worthy , but the continued employment will also enhance their financial security . |
| 716 | New drugs or medicine will be available for the sick elderly and more cures for diseases and sickness will be available to help the elderly This may reduce the stress on the working force in the sense that they do n't have to worry about their elderly parents . |
| 717 | When viewed from another angle , government policies help to maximize the welfare of the elderly . |
| 718 | All these have indeed made the process towards aging a more enjoyable and fulfilling one and allowed the aged to truly enjoy their well-prepared twilight years . |
| 719 | Lastly , the HDB grant policy also displays how the government helps to ease the ageing process . |
| 720 | In effect , the policies are because the welfare of the elderly is well taken care of and they will not be neglected by the community . |
| 721 | Furthermore , modifying facilities such as a lift to stop at every floor of the flat , railing and slopes with anti-slipped features , not only benefits the elderly but also the handicapped and residents living in the estates . |
| 722 | With every effort put into these strategies , especially current researches and developments/ policies in various areas like psychology and medicine , the ageing process in Singapore could be eased t . |
| 723 | This would thus benefit the elderly who would require an increasing need for healthcare services . |
| 724 | Firstly , the aging process should be eased by allowing more working-age immigrants . |
| 725 | Therefore , medical research greatly enhances the confidence of the aged to face the eventual ageing process . |
| 726 | These apartments have special facilities that look after the elderly , such as lifts stopping at every floor and handgrips built around the flat so that it is more convenient and safer for the elderly . |
| 727 | It is true that technological inventions tend to infringe on the privacy of the elderly , but they still help to ease the aging process as the monitoring of elderly through various electronic ways are done at a good cause . |
| 728 | These two measures have attempted to reduce the reliance of the workforce on the aging population and to soothe the pressing matter of the aging population . |
| 729 | On the contrary , psychological development has helped to eliminate ageism , |
| 730 | These policies help the elderly to age with grace and dignity . |
| 731 | Such a policy can give security to the elderly if they find themselves trapped in the high cost of healthcare . |
| 732 | It provides solutions to many serious problems . |
| 733 | Tech tools to ease the aging process . |
| 734 | This essay is going to elaborate the effects that scientific discoveries , technological inventions and social policies have on easing the aging process . |
| 735 | For instance , living in air-conditioning buildings helps us or using robots reduces death rates in some high-risk jobs . |
| 736 | Once they develop strong economies and improvements in science , policy makers can not only focus on the graying population but also come up with the solutions to many other problems . |
| 737 | To summarize , with the current medical research , development and polices made by scientists and the government , it has definitely slowed and eased the aging process that everyone will experience . |
| 738 | As a result , degenerative diseases of old age such as arthritis , diabetes and hypertension can be treated and thus help to ease the aging process . |
| 739 | Technology has made our life easier . |
| 740 | On top of that , the involvement of their immediate families in the process will be a bonus in helping them to cope with ageing . |
| 741 | The government is aware of the challenges faced by the aging population due to inadequate facilities and living conditions and has influenced the changes in the environment so as to make life easier for the elderly . |
| 742 | Last but not least , through architectural means , there are many infrastructures and facilities put in place for the convenience of the elderly . |
| 743 | Luckily , modern medicine can provide procedures to cure serious diseases and to prevent aging . |
| 744 | Medical advancements allow people to live longer , and as a result , the number of elderly people has been on the increase . |
| 745 | The repercussions of an ageing population are tirelessly being subdued by various helpful and effective solutions . |
| 746 | Moreover , when people get old , science also plays an important role to ease their old age . |
| 747 | Nonetheless as time passes , new technologies are constantly being introduced and the prices of relatively older aesthetic procedures will eventually become more affordable to the majority of the aging population . |
| 748 | Furthermore , they could enjoy high living standards and security in life . |
| 749 | This will therefore ease the burden of people from all these time-consuming chores . |
| 750 | Indeed , with the help of science , many diseases particularly old age diseases have been discovered and understood , which significantly gives a hand in treating . |
| 751 | Public spending for the health care sector would benefit everyone and this could prove to be very effective . |
| 752 | First of all , both of these two technologies have benefited us and improved our life very much . Both have helped us in some aspects : Penicillin has helped us to deal with some diseases which were hard to cure , while the telephone has helped us to communicate with others more easily and made the world much smaller . |
| 753 | Technology has improved our daily life a lot . |
| 754 | Lastly , research in life science areas has shown ways to prolong human life and to prevent illness . |
| 755 | In addition , technology has also brought to the elderly many convenient tools to help them to be independent in their lives . |
| 756 | As a result , government has begun providing adequate medical incentives and healthcare insurance coverage to cater for the elderly . |
| 757 | Leading an active and healthy lifestyle helps to reduce chances of getting age related health problems such as lower stamina , rheumatism , falling memory , senile dementia , and emotional setbacks . |
| 758 | Moreover , by taking care of the aged , it will portray the country to be a gracious and caring nation . |
| 759 | To conclude , advancement in technology , breakthroughs in medical research and various government policies have contributed to the aging process where the aged can have better , quality and pleasurable time completing their last stage of their life . |
| 760 | Both of these two remarkable inventions help us to lead a much better life now . |
| 761 | Apart from that , advancements in technology also brings about the inventions of new gadgets that have significantly improved the lives of elderly individuals . |
| 762 | We will have a more comfortable and healthier environment to live in . |
| 763 | In other words , medicine can be used effectively to ease the aging process . |
| 764 | Thus , it is essential to redesign homes for old people to ease their aging process . |
| 765 | Therefore , their balance can be improved and they are able to lead a better life . |
| 766 | The government has been trying to ease the process through implementing policies . |
| 767 | Secondly , advancement in science allows the elderly to enjoy a healthier life . |
| 768 | As there are many other complications if an elderly person were to fall down , such inventions help to prevent the elderly from falling down . |
| 769 | Then , the problem of aging can be eased down . |
| 770 | This policy aims to boost the economic growth potential as there will be less tough competition to get a job . |
| 771 | This essay will discuss the impact of some of these technological inventions and how it helps the aging population cope with their decline performance , productivity and health . |
| 772 | Therefore , many research , development and policies have been proposed to help to ease this process . |
| 773 | Psychological development has provided the right view of aging , helping to eliminate ageism and ease the aging process . |
| 774 | Since it substantially improves the efficiency of the employees of companies and helps to protect assets . |
| 775 | These applications and functions amongst many are easily available on the market and are there to ultimately help the elderly age in the comfort of their own home . |
| 776 | In addition , still having a good medical condition and good working performance , these people can be a great asset in contributing to the economy . |
| 777 | Another reason is that it reduces the risk of losing a human 's life . |
| 778 | By treating and preventing more diseases from arising before one gets old and detecting early symptoms of diseases , a person can be healthier especially . |
| 779 | Over the past century , the technological boom has brought about much comfort and convenience through different inventions . |
| 780 | With this subsidy , more elderly will be able to medical care as compared to before . |
| 781 | As for now , its policies have certainly kept the ageing process a much more manageable one . |
| 782 | These initiatives will hence foster family bonding and community spirit , thus a positive environment for everyone to age healthily . |
| 783 | A good healthcare system will be one whereby the elderly are able to access it with ease in time of need and it should be one that is made affordable to all . |
| 784 | In any case , both technologies have greatly improved the convenience in communication in our life . |
| 785 | The government is creating a more disabled and elderly friendly environment by making improvements in housing estates and public areas . |
| 786 | These recreational outdoor facilities are being built extensively to create a better living environment for the ageing population . |
| 787 | Therefore , through advancement in medical technology , the quality of life for the aged is still high thereby lengthening the life span of humans . |
| 788 | All these developments help the elderly , the disabled and pregnant women as well . Thus , developments in these area are definitely worthwhile . |
| 789 | If these burdens are lightened , people will have more flexibility in spending power , which could in turn help churn the economy . |
| 790 | Different countries respond to this problem differently and the ease with which the elderly are living their lives is evidence of the creative policies that many governments have introduced to benefit them . |
| 791 | To sum up,being healthy and looking young are important to the elderly because this is how they can live with confidence and satisfaction . |
| 792 | There has always been on-going research , development or policies to help the easing of the process of aging . |
| 793 | Measures taken by the government to help ease aging process in residential areas are sheltered linkways which are upgraded to allow the elderly to access from residential blocks to markets . |
| 794 | Therefore , public spending on medical science not only benefits the aged but also the people who are diagnosed with virus 's or diseases . |
| 795 | Thirdly , the introduction of many new medicines has helped to ease the aging problem . |
| 796 | Besides scientific research , inventions and new technologies have indeed brought convenience to human beings . |
| 797 | It is relatively hard to deny how much ageing has been made much easier . |
| 798 | Similarly , the CPF policy , put into operation by the government lessens the worries of ageing as medical and life expenses are already well planned for . |
| 799 | In addition , community centers or community clubs have their policies to ease the aging process . |
| 800 | Moreover , with longer life expectancy , it is also important to be certain that the country 's health care system is well-structured and sophisticated enough to prepare for an influx of sick elderly , and the cost of health care expenditure also includes the cost of promoting good health . |
| 801 | The development of technology has benefited human beings in both scientific research and daily life of human beings . |
| 802 | As the senior citizens are more prone to health sickness , having this Medisave account would greatly benefit them . |
| 803 | As we head towards the future , more technological inventions would rise , easing the aging process even further . |
| 804 | Nevertheless , these two strategies are able to reduce elder dependency . |
| 805 | Increasing the number of employable immigrants will help to lower the median age of the population and at the same time , result in a rise in the efficiency level because of a more competitive workforce . |
| 806 | Furthermore , longer working lives can definitely help lessen the pressure of younger generations , which protects them from being overwhelmed by overloaded work . |
| 807 | In conclusion , is undeniably desirable as it makes our life better . |
| 808 | This can lead to better mental health and well-being of the individuals . |
| 809 | Technologies have the capabilities of solving problems and improving our daily life . |
| 810 | How do technological inventions help to ease the aging process ? |
| 811 | By providing support in the areas of housing and healthcare , the country has prepared well for the ageing process . |
| 812 | This in turn will help to ease the problem of poverty and unemployment in developing countries . |
| 813 | They fulfill the human needs and have changed the quality of lives . |
| 814 | In conclusion , the easing of the aging process should be a national effort . |
| 815 | The building of infrastructure makes tourists feel comfortable and it is convenientt because tourists can travel around the country without barriers . |
| 816 | However , this may not be the case as with improved healthcare system ; it helps the elderly because their healthcare needs will be better taken care of . |
| 817 | Besides the amount of anti-aging medicine available in the market , advanced technology has also helped to ease a generation into old age despite the fact that some elderly people might not be able to accept these complex technologies . |
| 818 | Based on a recent survey conducted on the impact of technology on the elderly , the majority of the elderly surveyed believe that advancement in technology " will produce better quality of life for themselves " ( 1 ) . |
| 819 | However , efforts have been made to help these elderly individuals . |
| 820 | Other than the economic benefits , old people can involve themselves in their work and research has shown that working reduces the risk of getting illness associated with old age such as Alzheimer 's disease . |
| 821 | Moreover , money is also needed to provide the prevention and screenings programmes for the elderly and to educate them about the benefits of having a healthy lifestyle and ways to stay healthy . |
| 822 | Thus , by increasing the amount of healthcare workers focusing on treating elderly illnesses prevent the situation of the lack of healthcare workers for the elderly in the near future . |
| 823 | Improving returns on CPF savings will ensure the savings can last for the lifetime of CPF members . |
| 824 | A new paradigm shift and various strategies are required to enable the elderly to be more physically independent since much could be done to forestall some of the negative impact of a fast aging population . |
| 825 | Secondly , uesful technological inventions have also been convenient to the elderly . |
| 826 | This is very convenient especially for elderly individuals who have difficulty moving around . |
| 827 | This permits the aged population to continue serving society and also in certain ways helps to build confidence in the elderly . |
| 828 | I define the more important requirements of the final solution to be its ease of being accepted by users , the extent of it being able to reduce undesirable emissions and the amount of time it takes to be implemented . |
| 829 | As for the improvements in current R&D , we can all anticipate more ground-breaking inventions to relief elderly of pains from illness . |
| 830 | People living in well-developed countries have high standards of living due to their affluence brought about by their stable economy . |
| 831 | Due to globalization , the aged have become richer and of better health . |
| 832 | Aging with grace means good health and lifestyles , financial stability and being in the company of family and friends . |
| 833 | Hence , these approaches have increased the seniors ' confidence and security during their twilight years . |
| 834 | At the same time , the technological developments have greatly changed our lives at the same time , making our lives more convenient and colourful . |
| 835 | It also helps to reduce the risk of disease . |
| 836 | The development and advancement in science and technology has brought much convenience to the human society today . |
| 837 | This does bring some benefits to the elderly . |
| 838 | Therefore , a co-residence model which appears to be a complement factor helps to reduce stresses on public funds . |
| 839 | Technology has vastly improved during the past century and made life easier for the elderly around the world . |
| 840 | Another benefit that comes with this heightened security is the generation of more jobs helping to ease unemployment rate . |
| 841 | As such , with these initiatives , the public should rest assured that the minimum of initiatives will be carried out to guarantee that the elderly can extend their working lives with least problems . |
| 842 | Whichever way an invention is created , it helps satisfy human needs and solve existing problems . |
| 843 | From my point of view , science and technology give us a tremendous promotion in reducing the aging process rate . |
| 844 | Instead , it is meant to be a life enabler to increase the quality of life , like helping the elderly stay indoors safely and providing maximum possible social interaction and social support from their neighbors and relatives . |
| 845 | Lastly , developments in medicine have also helped in the ageing process . |
| 846 | Of course , avoiding an accident is the biggest benefit to people . |
| 847 | This is because the invention of medicine has helped human beings to sustain a longer life . |
| 848 | This can be attributed to greater awareness by technological companies of the needs of an elderly individual , thus attributing greater emphasis to this field of research . |
| 849 | Measures to help the elderly |
| 850 | These improvements can be seen in various contexts and we will be looking at the benefits they have provided to the elderly . |
| 851 | These services are a great support and assistance to working age people who are taking care of the elderly while they are busy working . |
| 852 | Governments all around the world has to make provision for improved healthcare as the live expectancies of their citizens and medical technologies are improving by the years . |
| 853 | In contrast , it should be thought as one way to help reduce the burden of aging population . |
| 854 | Therefore , by increasing the retirement age and recruiting immigrants , we have partly eased the economic aspect of aging process . |
| 855 | Medical research is one crucial element in easing the aging process . |
| 856 | There is a need to make health care more accessible and affordable to the aged . |
| 857 | One important reason why we should use RFID is that it can help companies to improve working efficiency as well as protect their assets . |
| 858 | Yet , as a society matures , one can see how ingenious and novel methods have been developed and set into place to help bring the elderly from living on the margins of a society into being a part of the mainstream again . |
| 859 | Because elders can " catch up " with many latest inventions , they are less likely to feel abandoned by the progressing society compared to the older generations . |
| 860 | On the other hand , the scientists keep giving out new technological inventions to help the elderly feel more comfortable and content with their ordinary life . |
| 861 | Through the reforms of the government policies , the aged has been well taken care of . |
| 862 | At the same time , there should also be certain amount of public spending on the aged as the senior citizens are still part of the society and they should be taken care of as so that a country can progress and prosper . |
| 863 | Therefore , we should appreciate the hard work of scientists in the lab and medical center since it has improved old age in many aspects . |
| 864 | Nevertheless , these problems could be eliminated as the influx of foreigners through immigration will satisfy the needs of the labour market and boost the economy with improved labour productivity . |
| 865 | However , revealing the results may have some positive effects to both individuals and their family psychologically and physically ( Chang & Haber , 2007 ) . |
| 866 | With each passing day , technology evolves and moulds new inventions which can make life better , and easier . |
| 867 | Psychological help to ease the aging process |
| 868 | However , this enforcement of law ensure the seniors of a more secured life . |
| 869 | Upgraded infrastructure helps the mobilization of the elderly . |
| 870 | People nowadays do not only think of creating tools that can ease their life . |
| 871 | ( Cascalho and Platt ) It can be seen that future technology may lead to longer lifespan and better healthcare , as well as possible ways to make an elder 's body literally young and energetic once again . |
| 872 | With the air quality improved , the world will be able to lead a clean and healthier life . |
| 873 | Due to the fact that older patients are more prone to hospital admittances than other age groups , providing better medical care facilities and services not only helps to reduce the chance of re-admission , it will also facilitate better chances of making a full recovery . |
| 874 | The policy makers have found out many ways to ease the problem . |
| 875 | These will provide competent and appropriate care for the elderly patients . |
| 876 | This opinion , in some ways , is not wrong , however , with the help of science , old people are consulted and encouraged to live healthily with appropriate exercises and sufficient nutrition . |
| 877 | The elderly are more heartened to know that many problems they face can be solved , such as having blood pressure drugs that is able to decrease the risk of strokes and heart problems . |
| 878 | This is because it helps to reduce damages on vital cells and tissues which are crucial in prolonging the lifespan of a person . |
| 879 | The SCWR 's revival would benefit the whole population . |
| 880 | Moreover , with these technologies , man-power is saved and efficiency of work is increased . |
| 881 | Therefore , it is vital that senior citizens have a healthy lifestyle and to be active in the workforce in order for them to be in good health and have the ability to self-provide . |
| 882 | Nonetheless , with much support in place , the future of the world may not be as bleak as before . |
| 883 | With the current policies and development in science study , aging process will be solved in the long run . |
| 884 | Scientific research can be made to deliver solution as well as alternatives to ease the aging process . |
| 885 | The working experiences of some elderly individuals can be a good asset to the development of the society . |
| 886 | Impaired mobility is a major health concern for older adults and through Assistive Technology , technological invention has helped ease the movement for the elderly . |
| 887 | Being part of the community creates a sense of belonging for the elderly promotes better mental health . |
| 888 | It must also provide comfort and convenience to the people . |
| 889 | Finally , a harmonious and caring elderly society has been promoted through housing schemes as well . |
| 890 | This encourages more people to research and develop technological products that suit the aging population . |
| 891 | Being occupied with work , the aged could actually use their brains more frequently and this reduces the chances of developing senile dementia and Parkinson 's diseases . |
| 892 | It is also true that " work can help us stay physically active , mentally alert , socially connected and financially self-reliant " ( Yap , 2009 , p. 7 ) . |
| 893 | This is because every engineering product is designed to serve the people and to bring a greater convenience to their lives . |
| 894 | Measurements taken by Government to help ease aging process in residential areas are for example shelter links upgraded to allow access from residential blocks to markets . |
| 895 | Housing , which is one of the basic needs of elderly people , is significant because the elderly need a safe , pleasing and interactive environment for their old age . |
| 896 | The advances in technology have brought about much convenience to the society of modern times . |
| 897 | Aside from social life , having basic healthcare is vital for the aged . |
| 898 | Although some might argue that increasing healthcare funding just targets at providing for the aged , by looking at the bigger picture , one will see that an improved healthcare system provides for all . |
| 899 | Furthermore , as the young see that the government pays good attention to the elderly , which they will become , they will know that their future is well-secured . |
| 900 | With financial sufficiency , people can live an easy life and . |
| 901 | The setting up of community centres which organize activities for the elderly , is beneficial for the elderly . |
| 902 | This may actually help to save lives . |
| 903 | On the part of the government , they will be able to develop medical technology and provide more medical schemes to help the aged . |
| 904 | The government steps in to make the environment more user-friendly , which includes the installation of handrails along steps and stairs , the building of gentle slopes around the housing estates and the upgrading of lifts to stop at every floor in older flats . |
| 905 | This revelation of the result can help many people , including the carrier himself . |
| 906 | Lastly , Residual Model policies are in place to ease the aging process as they act as the last straw of the social safety net when the elderly lack self-reliance or have no familial support , |
| 907 | Not only could they be able to sustain living through earnings obtained from working , the aged could also keep a healthy mind and body . |
| 908 | The above mentioned law contributes to the easing of the ageing process by creating a dependency between the younger generation in families with their elders . |
| 909 | Hopefully , the elderly will benefit from the fast developing technology . |
| 910 | Active ageing ,as the new paradigm of ageing , is the key to overcoming healthcare challenges and other problems arising with the ageing population . |
| 911 | This will definitely reduce the fiscal cost of elder dependency . |
| 912 | Thus , in terms of the effects they brought for people , they are similar in enhancing the life of mankind . |
| 913 | A smart design , sometimes only involving a little change , can improve the work efficiency by several times , which can produce a much more attractive profit . |
| 914 | Hence , the pressure of the aging process is reduced . |
| 915 | Fighting ageism is essential to ease the aging process of our society . |
| 916 | Free trade allows a wider range of goods and services and most importantly it is cost saving . |
| 917 | However , with the help of some technological inventions , the old can overcome these weaknesses . |
| 918 | Thus , an elderly friendly environment is essential to enhance the efficiency of the work force . |
| 919 | In addition , the introduction of health related welfare schemes for the aged is also one of the main solutions . |
| 920 | Nevertheless , with the good economic growth it is facing , the issue on the aged is taken care of well . |
| 921 | This will make the public feel safer . |
| 922 | The safety features in household appliances have enabled the elderly to take care of their own needs safely . |
| 923 | Elderly who are more prone to sickness will benefit from this increase in knowledge of health treatment . |
| 924 | As a conclusion , the policies that have been implemented by governments have countered the issue of aging workforces . |
| 925 | It has also brought about much convenience and is now considered an asset to most people . |
| 926 | It does save a lot of work . |
| 927 | Public transport is also becoming more wheelchair-friendly with similar upgrades over the years . |
| 928 | The lightbulb has brought us easier and more convenient life . |
| 929 | Secondly , science also helps to cope with the aging problem . |
| 930 | When one works , it helps if one stays mentally aware , physically energetic , socially connected and financially independent . |
| 931 | Strategies for easing aging process |
| 932 | Facilities within the blocks were enhanced significantly to aid the day-to-day movement of the elderly ( Housing and Development Board , 2008 ) . |
| 933 | With that , architecture too has moved towards a more elderly-savvy approach in buildings and public areas to prevent unwanted accidents . |
| 934 | For example , HDB has been actively implementing various policies and improvement programs in making the elderly feel more comfortable . |
| 935 | It is the responsibility of the government to take care of and ensure that their citizens are not suffering and to ease their plight , especially in times of recession . |
| 936 | Nowadays , with medical treatment , people can be " young " for a longer time bringing about better health when they reach their old age . |
| 937 | Elderly should be taking complementary healthcare products to strengthen their body against diseases as we well as retaining their mental alertness . |
| 938 | To a large extent , the aging process has been alleviated by current social policies and implementation that emphasise individual responsibility , familial commitment and residual model policies- often known as government intervention . |
| 939 | Apart from being well taken care of in medical bills , the elderly needs to be looked after in their social well-being too. . |
| 940 | Senior citizens have contributed a lot to making what people enjoy today . |
| 941 | The human 's life expectancy has increased over the years with the advanced technology and different living environments ; more adults are better educated and well off than before . This has changed our perception towards what is healthy and what is ageing . |
| 942 | The adequate welfare of the local population would definitely enhance the citizen 's quality of life . |
| 943 | Thus , these tools will help them both physically and mentally . |
| 944 | Ultimately , both technologies are beneficial to the human population . |
| 945 | Lastly , technological inventions can help keep the elderly safe in their homes . |
| 946 | In addition , a better health care system will allow the people to stay healthier and prevent some major illnesses such as stroke and heart attack . |
| 947 | This example shows that the problems which will occur from an aging population have been well-thought through and measures have been put in place. . |
| 948 | He cited research showing that population ageing has been a source of political stability and economic development in many regions . |
| 949 | With this in mind , countries have begun to provide elder friendly architectural design to assist elderly in their daily activities . |
| 950 | Higher life expectancy of the population is foreseen with the literate population getting healthier together current advancements in medical technology . |
| 951 | Residential areas with high elderly density are set to undergo upgrading to provide more elderly-friendly-facilities . |
| 952 | Over the decades , the quality of life has improved tremendously in terms of technologies . |
| 953 | In addition , social policies have also played a major part in solving the ageing process . |
| 954 | Government agencies have strived to promote an elderly-friendly physical environment . |
| 955 | Thus , this not only benefits the general public but also the aged . |
| 956 | The technologies generated in both organizations help build a better world . |
| 957 | Having such advanced technology in the current world , the aging population will be expecting a longer and healthy life expectancy . |
| 958 | Therefore , it can be said that research and development is the pathway to relieve the ageing process . |
| 959 | It is important that the publicly-financed health and welfare packages on the older people who tend to be the principal beneficiaries are implemented effectively . |
| 960 | The government has also encouraged employers to be more welcoming in employing the elderly . |
| 961 | As a result , the elderly would be able to receive immediate help and treatment . |
| 962 | As a result , it creates a disciplined and cohesive society that benefits everyone . |
| 963 | Then again , even though it is the health authorities who are responsible for providing better medical care to the citizens , senior citizens also have to play a part in ensuring their own well being . |
| 964 | Better medical facilities allow people to live longer but at the same time increase their cost of living as well . |
| 965 | Besides that , the public has also benefited from this technology as it can be used for search and rescue purposes and also as a navigation aid . |
| 966 | The elderly can now move around independently and conveniently , decreasing the burden on working adults . |
| 967 | Thus , government policies to enhance overall productivity will help maintain living standards , despite a shrinking labor force . |
| 968 | This may lengthen the life of the carrier or even more , save it . |
| 969 | With effective social policy , it will help to slow down the aging process . |
| 970 | Thus , both creations are very useful in the role they play in making our life a better one . |
| 971 | Basically , the origin of e-commerce is due to public 's desire to facilitate their life and work . |
| 972 | Homes that are user-friendly to the elderly have features that allow the elderly to move around easily . |
| 973 | Such possible failure of medical policies has spurred efforts to better protect the old . |
| 974 | Investing in economic growth will reduce the stress on the younger generation as more jobs will be will be available . |
| 975 | All in all , biometric identification achieves great development as humans seek for better information protection , easier life style and greater economic profit , and it brings tremendous benefits to those who shape it . |
| 976 | Furthermore , home care can be done by providing welfare and consultation by government agencies at a lower cost to alleviate the solitude and physical burden of the dependent elderly , which is suggested by Claude ( 1993 ) in " Home based care " . |
| 977 | Study has proved that when employees feel they are valued during a mission , they tend to be more responsible and as a result , the safety and quantity of production are greatly improved |
| 978 | In recent years , modifications in architectures have been made to ensure the safety of the elderly . |
| 979 | This can prove to be vital in saving a person 's life . |
| 980 | Singapore has done well over the years in implementing projects helping the poor and consequently , it has gained the trust and support of the citizens . |
| 981 | However , a safe and accessible environment for elderly people is vital . |
| 982 | Coming up with the Wellness Programme , " a pilot project to help seniors keep fit mentally and physically " ( Soh , 2009 ) , is the stepping stone for a more elderly-friendly environment . |
| 983 | Architecture has raised the standards of living up to a point where even the elderly that have low mobility are able to move around as they wish . |
| 984 | Catering to the upward trend of the aging population , initiated programs such as free health check for the elderly are implemented to encourage the elderly to constantly conduct full body checkup to ensure that they are in good health and also to advice them on the dos and don'ts in their everyday life so as to maintain a healthy lifestyle . |
| 985 | This will lighten the burden of the aged population as well as the younger workforce . |
| 986 | , contribute to easing this process but economic factor . |
| 987 | Since there is an obvious advancement in technology when compared to previous years , there are more inventions in medicine and equipment to treat illnesses . |
| 988 | In addition , it is more efficient and productive . |
| 989 | ( ) Meanwhile spending on healthcare such as is growing and it can continue indefinitely because of the continuous introduction of new technologies and treatments that are beneficial . |
| 990 | For this seems to be a rather effective policy , with the value-added element of being able to lighten the economic burden supported by the government . |
| 991 | Be it serendipity or developed through research or inventions developed through research it benefits human lives . |
| 992 | If a person is employed , it is beneficial for their physical well being . |
| 993 | Finally , though they are different in many ways , both of them do contribute a lot to help us lead a better life now . |
| 994 | All these upgrading works are carried out to ensure that the place is made suitable for the elderly to live in . |
| 995 | With these improvements , we are one step closer in building a totally barrier-free healthy environment where the elderly can travel around freely and safely in absolute comfort . |
| 996 | Through cutting spending on the aged , the funds can be used in solving problems faced by society and help to relieve the pressure faced by the current working force . |
| 997 | It allows the elderly to be more active in taking care of themselves at the comfort of their own home . |
| 998 | Therefore , we are able to enjoy comfortable lives today . |
| 999 | Caring for the aged is definitely an act to be applauded for and encouraged . |
| 1000 | The other point is that the credit card saves a lot of manpower and material resources . |
| 1001 | Architectural improvement has also linked aged people both with and without disability to be able to travel by themselves . |
| 1002 | With advancements in healthcare service and medicine , along with a better understanding of the aging process , life expectancy for humans has kept increasing . |
| 1003 | With better knowledge in Architecture , homes and places outside home are made user-friendly for the elderly |
| 1004 | The Wellness Program is a social program designed to encourage active and healthy lifestyles among senior citizens . |
| 1005 | With the marvel breakthrough of medical advancement , elderly members who are the ones that health problems are better furnished with finer medication procedures . |
| 1006 | In most developed countries , governments have enforced various measures to make the physical environment more elderly-friendly . |
| 1007 | Faced with this situation , governments and policy makers around the world have been providing solutions such as the introduction of economic policies , social policies , and architectural designs which benefit both the elderly and society . |
| 1008 | Even public transportation is more disabled and elderly friendly these days . |
| 1009 | Through constant exchanges of information about problems , human needs and wants , we can come up with better ideas to solve problems and make our world a better place to live in . |
| 1010 | On a closer look , although the present medical technologies may not be able to slow down the aging process , these technologies may help to prevent medical ailments from occurring and also in some cases , alleviate the sufferings which the elderly have to go through . |
| 1011 | " This is the proof of how a successful design can be beneficial to a needy person . |
| 1012 | Admitting more immigrants will help to replenish the country 's aging population in the years ahead . |
| 1013 | Hence , higher productivity is achieved , thus reducing the burden of the younger generation in paying taxes . |
| 1014 | In this way , most problems of the aging population are taken care of . |
| 1015 | ( . On top of this , the government also strongly encourages her senior citizens to adopt a healthy lifestyle . |
| 1016 | Through economical , social and architectural means , we are thinking ahead for the future and creating an elderly- friendly environment for the elderly people to live in . |
| 1017 | As technology continues to advance , more tasks can be done and aging will soon be considered a transition rather than a problem . |
| 1018 | Constructing of overhead bridges and expressways has benefited the citizens too . |
| 1019 | On the surface the ability of the devices to save life seems remarkable , but it has serious risks of being abused . |
| 1020 | Healthcare subsidies provide proper care for the needy elderly patients . |
| 1021 | Moreover , some medical products like " Fall Detection System " and " Posture monitoring system " can even help people save life in some ways . |
| 1022 | In terms of medicine , we also have skin cream to prevent wrinkles , anti hair loss drugs , special medicine for osteoporosis , heart disease , etc. to provide different ways to ease the aging process . |
| 1023 | Thus in the next few paragraphs , I will explain in depth the various research and government policies being developed to help ease the aging process . |
| 1024 | It is because there are communities which welcome the retirees who are healthy , independent and rich . In time , they will become more popular and be 'recruited ' by the communities since traditionally , women have provided much of the voluntary work but now more of them have joined the work force . |
| 1025 | It is shown that we are able to efficiently solve the problems caused by aging population with limited spending . |
| 1026 | More and more medical innovation has applied to extend life expectancy so that the working-age has been lengthened consequently . |
| 1027 | On the other hand , senior activity centres are also developed in housing estates to encourage the elderly to remain integrated in society . |
| 1028 | In an attempt to ease the shrinking workforce , governments are attempting to utilize all available resources to the fullest . |
| 1029 | For instance , increasing and raising productive children not only can reduce the t burden but also attract foreign investors to invest in the country with a pool of talent . |
| 1030 | Thus , to a large extent , I agree that current research and development is the solution to this aging process . |
| 1031 | Proponents claim that the government should implement better policies to alleviate the aging population with increasing public spending on mainly medical benefits because illnesses catch up with them as they grow older and the expensive treatments could possibly wipe out their savings accounts . |
| 1032 | After that , the poverty state will also improve gradually since the country 's economy is boost up through time . |
| 1033 | Other than that , the technology also helps in reducing crime rates all around the world . |
| 1034 | These housing villages provide a diversity of elderly-friendly facilities and services , which encourage older people to maintain a dynamic and independent lifestyle . |
| 1035 | This will provide them the opportunity to live a more normal life and enjoy the joys of life as any other citizen . |
| 1036 | A healthy body is important because when the eldery are healthy , they will not feel useless or abandoned . |
| 1037 | With the financial support from the company , the research and development team can have a comfortable and productive workspace . |
| 1038 | Even though this is a fact , advancement in the medical field has proven to cure some old age diseases like Cataracts . |
| 1039 | Since they are also healthy , they can contribute to society as long as they intend to . |
| 1040 | We can see that just a little change can benefit a large number of people . |
| 1041 | The high membership is testimony to the fact that volunteering will give the elderly spiritual fulfillment in their later years . |
| 1042 | The health care system has also been given high priority to cater to the needs of the aging population . |
| 1043 | Thus , elderly will feel convenient to do their daily activities and live independently . |
| 1044 | Ever since the first wheelchair is being made , it has benefitted many people . |
| 1045 | Thus , in order for such policies to ease the issue of a greying population , the paradigm of aiding the country must be observed by society . |
| 1046 | An elderly person is not afraid to walk around the housing estates or travel in public transport as these facilities have become more accessible to them . |
| 1047 | So besides concern for the elderly , the welfare of society has to be taken care of . |
| 1048 | Increased confidence in consumers is seen whenever safety is enhanced for products . |
| 1049 | For example , it actually helps to ease the poverty problem since the lack of formal education among the poor contributes to the poverty issue directly . |
| 1050 | All the products and systems humans are enjoying now are the results of human effort to improve our society . |
| 1051 | With potent medicine , the aged are able to live longer and healthier . |
| 1052 | In both examples , regardless of their methods of discoveries , both are beneficial to mankind and help to improve the quality of life . |
| 1053 | The improvement in medical research has lengthened the life expectancy of the people . |
| 1054 | The development of an " Accessible City " creates a long term benefit for all citizens . |
| 1055 | One is to give confidence to the public ; the other one is to help them to mitigate the effects of inflation . |
| 1056 | Therefore , improvement in healthcare services for the elderly is essential . |
| 1057 | Not only that , better working environments should be provided for the elderly workers . |
| 1058 | It is not only used for the purpose of security but for the convenience of residents since they do not have to use keys or worry about thieves . |
| 1059 | Currently , various programmes have been implemented by the government to promote healthy lifestyle in older people . |
| 1060 | Also , restrictive expenditure will avert the formation of " welfare dependency " but promote the building of a " compassionate society " through family-centred policies ( Chua , 1993 ) . |
| 1061 | As the increase in the fund for baby bonus leads to more people planning to have more babies , this would eventually reduce the problem of having too many elderly which result in an aging society . |
| 1062 | Fortunately , many countries have recognized this need and have come up with different strategies to tackle the aging issues . |
| 1063 | They have laid a sturdy foundation only for most of us to benefit from it ; the infrastructure , the technology , and the standard of living have made us what we are today . |
| 1064 | First of all , we have to ease public worry . |
| 1065 | Therefore , with these medical schemes , elderly people 's healthcare can be secured . |
| 1066 | Therefore , scientists and researchers have conducted experiments to identify solutions to ease the aging process . |
| 1067 | Therefore , the burden on the shoulder of the children to take care of their elderly would be lightened . |
| 1068 | Secondly , economic development also encourages the improvement of services . |
| 1069 | To ensure that the aged population is able to pay large amount of medical expenses which could happen due to their old age , has set up a few policies to assist them . |
| 1070 | It has made their life after retirement one of relaxation , with comforts close at hand , . |
| 1071 | It benefits not only the individual but the whole world . |
| 1072 | With more emphasis placed on healthcare by governments today and the advancement of medical technology , people get to live longer . |
| 1073 | This benefits both the employees and the companies . |
| 1074 | In the world today , most humans are leading convenient and comfortable lives . |
| 1075 | Thus , our increased life expectancy is largely due to advances in medical research . |
| 1076 | When such research is successful , it will benefit humanity and better medical treatments in the world . |
| 1077 | When the workers ' mind is in the right place , then he will be happy and content when working ( Carpentier & Cazamian,1977 ) . |
| 1078 | Thus , the system is put in place for elderly to cross safely with a reasonable amount of time . |
| 1079 | In contemporary society , the elderly are well taken care of in many countries . |
| 1080 | In addition , retirement housings promote the social integration of our seniors , by not segregating them from the community at large and allowing them to age in a safe and comfortable environment . |
| 1081 | The government should also support healthcare costs for those elderly in families with financial problems as poverty if basic healthcare is not provided to everyone . |
| 1082 | Immigration is a possible solution to easing the aging process . |
| 1083 | Moving around at a speed and mobility which they had decades ago was not possible , but Architecture has changed our homes in a manner which assured that the elderly can at least move around without facing many difficulties . |
| 1084 | For many cases , safety is the most important aspect of a product , since it may be connected with countless lives . |
| 1085 | With a healthier body , the aged can enjoy their later years . |
| 1086 | Finally the HDB grant policy decreases the worries of the aged living with their children . |
| 1087 | With new technological advances , the elderly now have a variety of medical treatments for most old-age related illnesses . |
| 1088 | Besides , the government helps in subsidizing health screening programs for senior citizens . |
| 1089 | Foreign talents help increase the workforce in the economy , which helps to solve the problem of shrinking workforce brought about by aging population . |
| 1090 | Modern science and medicine has brought many benefits to mankind . |
| 1091 | Therefore as evidenced by these kinds of scenarios , the government should set aside more money on healthcare ,especially for working adults who are taking care for their elderly parents , since caregivers of the ill and unhealthy should be healthy in the first place . |
| 1092 | A human scientist can assist them and improve the system . |
| 1093 | First and the most important is that those innovations all promoted development of the society . |
| 1094 | The similarities are those innovations all promoted the development of society and they did their best for the creation of their product and dream . |
| 1095 | This will help increase psychological and emotional well being . |
| 1096 | There are diseases which are incurable , but the life of the victim can be prolonged using these new technologies . |
| 1097 | There are also many benefits for the aged citizens . |
| 1098 | One such aspect is the support that these technologies receive among people . |
| 1099 | Most people might think that this new form of technology will be very beneficial to mankind as it ensures easy identification . |
| 1100 | Therefore , it can be anticipated that more elderly-friendly features will be set up in our neighborhood in future . |
| 1101 | Technological advancement enables humans to live longer . |
| 1102 | Definitely , the economy becomes bigger every moment and it offers a lot of advantages , for example , people do n't have to worry about starving or a lack of food . |
| 1103 | Improvements in the architecture of the external environment are essential in boosting the physical and mental development of the elderly . |
| 1104 | People in old age can receive better medical attention . |
| 1105 | In addition to their past contributions , the aged are likely to be able to continue contributing to the society , by simply passing on their wealth of experience or adding diversity and vibrancy to a nation . |
| 1106 | This allows bonding to increase between them and also increasing the self-worth of the elderly . |
| 1107 | Besides , we can see that the elderly nowadays look healthier and than ever before . |
| 1108 | Besides this , remote controlled lighting helps the elderly to control the house lights with a remote control and therefore , minimizes the risk of falling in the dark . |
| 1109 | As a direct result , it is convenient to carry and wins students ' favour . |
| 1110 | In what ways can the health system adapt to the needs of the aged who have a higher probability of having chronic diseases ? |
| 1111 | This can assure that the elderly are living in a safe and unobstructed environment . |
| 1112 | This was a better solution to the problem . |
| 1113 | More trust can be gained from the public with transparency . |
| 1114 | The current policies in place are definitely planned to benefit a large portion of the target group . |
| 1115 | Since elderly are prone to chronic ailments such as renal disease or heart failure , medical research will be able to produce new drugs and more flexible treatments for them . |
| 1116 | In the course of my essay , I will first show how economics , medicine , architectural and technological inventions and social policies have helped ease the aging process while financial constraint can limit the effectiveness of easing the aging process . |
| 1117 | Most people who retire from work today are still energetic and in quite good health . |
| 1118 | Some might argue that more money should be allocated to taking care of the elderly as the elderly are more prone to chronic diseases and other health problems . |
| 1119 | All these infrastructure allows the older generation to have more freedom in their action and they do not need to compete with the younger generations . |
| 1120 | There have been many proposed strategies , policies and research that act to target people of all ages in alleviating the effects of a greying population . |
| 1121 | upgrading existing HDB flats to make it more elderly friendly . |
| 1122 | This also means an increase in the productivity of the aged physically . |
| 1123 | The convenience it has brought has definitely played a big part in its success . |
| 1124 | This is because these people believe that their inventions will benefit mankind . |
| 1125 | I t is true that those products provide us with much convenience ; however , at the same time , there are also chances that it brings some dangers as side effects . |
| 1126 | In order to encourage active aging , the government is bringing activities closer to housing estates like the RC or CC . |
| 1127 | A sustained economic growth improves the level of business activities , ensures a low unemployment rate and increases government tax revenues . |
| 1128 | Many scientists predict that our average life expectancy will slowly continue to increase as medicine finds more cures for diseases that are still terminal today . |
| 1129 | Although statistics have shown that people have become more vulnerable to these kinds of diseases , their chance of survival has been increasing as medical technology becomes more advanced . |
| 1130 | Their professional specialty can change other people 's life , even save a life . |
| 1131 | Both of them are very useful to the development of our society . |
| 1132 | These would decrease the elder dependency . |
| 1133 | It helps to see the elderly through their retirement , provides a retirement income for the elderly and it ensures sufficient savings for future medical uses as one gets older . |
| 1134 | For example , there are many drug companies or hospitals that are now better equipped to help overcome old aged problems such as arthritis , dementia and many other illnesses . |
| 1135 | There should also be more public spending on elderly health care . |
| 1136 | In our current society , one which faces a graying population , Architecture has played an active role in creating a safe and greatly accessible environment for the elderly . |
| 1137 | At the same time , the society should also give ample supports to those creative thinkers of our civilization . |
| 1138 | Also benefits such as national medical subsidy schemes have been introduced to subsidise the medical cost for the elderly . |
| 1139 | With the implementation of elder friendly designs , the elderly will be able demonstrate some level of independence . |
| 1140 | It is thus important to maintain a healthy , yet entertaining lifestyle especially at an old age . |
| 1141 | " This means that the elderly and other less mobile passengers will be able to board and alight easily . |
| 1142 | While the advancement in healthcare industry can help prevent diseases and other consequences of aging , medicine alone is inadequate . |
| 1143 | Government spending on investment in architectures for the aged has increased tremendously over the , so as to build a friendly environment for elderly to live . |
| 1144 | Once the reasons are known , researchers can come up with ideas of how to slow down or even reverse aging . |
| 1145 | With longer average life expectancies in the ageing population , demand for a good healthcare system is critical . |
| 1146 | Singapore 's HDB has been making our public housing estates more elderly-friendly through initiatives like the Lift Upgrading Programme and Home Ownership Scheme . |
| 1147 | Either encouraging retired workers to return to the work force or providing a decent shelter for the low income elderly will definitely send a positive message to the elderly that they are not being abandoned and they are still recognised by the society . |
| 1148 | With these elderly care devices and gadgets , the elderly can lead a safe and independent life with minimal help from care givers . |
| 1149 | There is an improvement delete highlighted and replace with 'in ' medical and science research to cure illnesses which are usually associated with old age such as research on heart diseases and the invention of artificial pancreas to replace any which fails with age . |
| 1150 | Over the years , efforts have been made to develop elder-friendly public infrastructure and housing as well as community based support services . |
| 1151 | In order to facilitate movement of older people , there are several developments in the infrastructure of the society . |
| 1152 | Thanks to the many inventors , researchers , developers and governmental agencies , these products have been made available to the general public . |
| 1153 | A new scheme , Wellness Programme was created recently to promote healthy lifestyles and social networking for citizens , especially the elderly ( PMO , 2009 ) . |
| 1154 | Medical scientists create treatments which are able to prolong human longevity . |
| 1155 | In sum , with the help of advanced technologies , the elderly can counter their sight and hearing loss and live independently . |
| 1156 | Another plan in CPF known as Medisave . This helps the aged to meet health care needs and hospitalization fees , so that the aged can afford the usage of healthcare facilities . |
| 1157 | A barrier free environment allows elderly people to have safe and easy access to the social facilities and amenities within their neighborhood . |
| 1158 | Other than that , with the current pace that the world is in now , medicine , architecture and social policies must work hand-in-hand to establish a sense of security for the older generation . |
| 1159 | Hence the main solution to the problem of improper housing would be the reduction of housing costs without compromising on quality . |
| 1160 | In conclusion , it is of upmost importance that the government keeps coming up with new and improved policies to ensure that our elderly stay active for as long as possible and are able to fruitfully enjoy their old age . |
| 1161 | By campaigning pro-activeness as an integral part of people 's lives , it is certain that any policies implemented will be embraced by the majority 's positive perceptions . |
| 1162 | One of it would be the Senior Citizens ' Club which helps to enhance family relationship and promote interaction among elderly . |
| 1163 | This adjustment is based on people 's psychological capacities and limitations , and the aim of it is to improve the overall system performance . |
| 1164 | Firstly , the advancement in science in the 2lst century has brought numerous astounding discoveries to prolong good health in times of old age . |
| 1165 | Inventions are made to benefit mankind . |
| 1166 | An elderly-friendly built environment is a key principle to which the elderly elderly can adjust and integrate themselves into the community . |
| 1167 | How to offer better medical treatment and prolong people 's lives ? |
| 1168 | Medical advancements such as cardiac catheterization ( the opening of an occluded artery through a balloon technique ) , pacemaker ( a defibrillator implanted in the patient 's heart to allow the heart to beat at normal pace ) helps to ease some of the health conditions that are associated with old age . |
| 1169 | This design was welcomed by most of the citizens and the whole design process was carefully carried out . |
| 1170 | Thus , with Information Technology , the aged no longer would to be lonely even when they are homebound . |
| 1171 | These luxury items , although they bring about a lot of convenience to our lives , are major culprits of destroying our environment . |
| 1172 | It was positively accepted by most people . |
| 1173 | Many companies nowadays have changed their views and greatly welcome these skilled workers . |
| 1174 | Therefore , better healthcare is one of the most important priorities when finding out solutions to help the elderly . |
| 1175 | It can help fulfill their psychological , biological and sociological needs . |
| 1176 | This can boost their confidence in securing a . |
| 1177 | However , and the Gen IV systems will definitely benefit most nations . |
| 1178 | Nevertheless , immigration policy is feasible to cope with an aging population . |
| 1179 | The convenience that credit card brings leads to its wide usage in the world and makes it fashionable till now . |
| 1180 | Spending on elderly , especially healthcare , can continue indefinitely because of the continuous introduction of new technologies and treatments that are beneficial but expensive . |
| 1181 | In this way , public spending can be used to provide more medical subsidies for the elderly . |
| 1182 | It saved many soldiers ' lives in the war . |
| 1183 | This can be achieved by providing the aged full medical support and adequate living allowances . |
| 1184 | This two tier solution would definitely help the progress of a country . |
| 1185 | Again , , we must thank science for giving us a better life . |
| 1186 | With the introduction of robots , elderly have a better protection as well as reliance . |
| 1187 | The disclosure is thus not only beneficial to the third parties but also the carrier himself . |
| 1188 | Communication is an important part of human development . It allows ideas and information to be disseminated effectively . |
| 1189 | With such technologies at hand , the elderly will be confident to live alone knowing that their safety is well taken care of . |
| 1190 | The Housing Development Board has helped to design a more elderly friendly environment through the Project LIFE ( Project to Improve the Living Conditions of the Elderly , HDB , 2005 ) . |
| 1191 | Furthermore , it is beneficial for governments to exchange pointers and assist one another in coping with the effects of greying population . |
| 1192 | Such synthesis will seek to improve the weakness of previous solutions . |
| 1193 | Hence , both inventions are beneficial to us . |
| 1194 | Moreover , the advances in technology have prolonged the life expectancy of every single human , making expenditure for old age soar to a great high due to high medical costs . |
| 1195 | On top of that , they may lighten the burden on their shoulder . |
| 1196 | This will definitely benefit the aged because with the current increasing health care cost , the medical bills are always shocking . |
| 1197 | Due to the fast advancement of medications , we have no article needed longer life spans compared to the past . |
| 1198 | Singapore 's HDB has been making our public housing estates more elderly-friendly . |
| 1199 | Some of the developments and policies are the construction of studio apartments specially for the elderly , the upgrading of the Housing Board ( HDB ) lifts which helps to improve the elders living area , increasing the retirement age to allow the elders to be more self-dependent and implementing more healthcare benefits and subsidies for the elder Singaporeans such as subsidies for community hospital stay . |
| 1200 | This may result in greater productivity among the workers as they tend to be more committed to their work ( , 2009 ) . |
| 1201 | The system is successful in educating the masses and is highly regarded by many other countries . |
| 1202 | We can easily see that the great sales have ensured the development of this technology . |
| 1203 | Both fulfill useful functions in human society . |
| 1204 | This will help to improve the standard of living in one country as unemployment and poverty have been a constant issue for many developing countries around the world . |
| 1205 | With inventions like these , the elderly will no longer need to rely on relatives and care providers for support . |
| 1206 | It is an indispensable asset that many countries strongly support and endeavor to adopt . |
| 1207 | As a result , the lonely elderly can also stay healthy in a community . |
| 1208 | This will reduce the cost of building it ( Zhao , 2009 ) . |
| 1209 | Besides safety , convenience is also desirable for identification purposes . |
| 1210 | This was further echoed by the good sales results of this model . |
| 1211 | Recent inventions offer medical solutions to the elderly suffering from chronic medical conditions such as arthritis , heart disease , and lung cancer . |
| 1212 | The baby bonus policy also has its limitation in easing the ageing process through increasing the birth rate to support the elderly . |
| 1213 | However , there are lots of positive features that we can count . |
| 1214 | In terms of healthcare , the government has come out with a few financial assistance schemes to ensure that the citizens are able to afford healthcare and are prepared during their old age . |
| 1215 | NASA tech may help prevent elderly falls . |
| 1216 | ( Eschede , n.d. ) If only the work had been done well , countless lives would have been saved . |
| 1217 | Many lives could have been spared . |
| 1218 | Despite the disagreement among economists about the cost of investing money in developing new technologies and drugs for maintaining good health for the elderly , the investment in health care is profitable and wise . |
| 1219 | The healthealth sector would be one of the areas where help is needed for the aged due to the rising medical expenditure and it is not fair to burden them with the entire cost . |
| 1220 | Both of them provide us benefit . |
| 1221 | Today , modern medicine can even prolong the lives of people who have diseases for which this is still no cure . |
| 1222 | In fact , every one of us , regardless of doing mental or physical work , has made a significant contribution towards the development of society . |
| 1223 | The government should actually help to subsidize medical bills for the elderly . |
| 1224 | Although hospitals are built to cater for the elderly and medical science is advancing , the most critical issue is still the high medical cost that patients and families have to worry about . |
| 1225 | Lastly , according to Mr Yap Chin Beng , Director , Estate Administration and Property , talks have been going on with the Housing Development Board ( HDB ) to initiate policies such as constant upgrading to our physical infrastructures to become more elderly-friendly . |
| 1226 | Limitations and transparency can be made to gain back confidence in public spending . |
| 1227 | The reasons why implanted pacemakers have gone through generations of development and has been listed as one of the top 50 inventions in the past 50 years is that they are portable , which means they can effectively prevent sudden heart attacks , and dependable as they run on computer programs which are constantly renewed by having more suitable ones stored in the patients ' bodies . |
| 1228 | Therefore , this discovery was a success and used by people all around the world . |
| 1229 | Naturally , when they feel good , their self-esteem and level of confidence will gradually increase . |
| 1230 | These computer programs allow the aged to be independent as they do not need to rely on caregivers anymore . |
| 1231 | Both promote social development . |
| 1232 | Some people say that the country 's budget should focus on healthcare for the elders , as old , retired people find it hard to cope with their problems without any support from the governments . |
| 1233 | Critical illnesses could empty the elderly of their retirement fund and thus the government should provide medical subsidies . |
| 1234 | Furthermore , it also enables the aged to continue living in the environment that they are familiar with . |
| 1235 | As medical facilities and technologies have continued to evolve , so have the lifespan of modern mortals prolonged . |
| 1236 | Subsidies are needed to sustain medical treatment or elderly who are sick are not going to received adequate treatment . |
| 1237 | Medically speaking , we can expect longevity if our body is able to continuously re-generate living cells . |
| 1238 | The improvement in portability has also resulted from people 's increasing demand for easy casual shootings . |
| 1239 | JULIA , S. ( 2001 , December ) Medical Advances : That May Save Your Life , A new generation of treatments has joined the fight against stroke , cancer and heart disease . |
| 1240 | This statistics show that the elderly people can be protected by the law . |
| 1241 | ' This way , the elderly can age happily in the comfort of their homes , surrounded by family and friends . |
| 1242 | Government subsidies on a wide range of intermediate and long-term care services such as community hospitals and dementia care centers are available for patients , especially elderly who require continuing care after hospitalization . |
| 1243 | With the advancement in science and technology , potential diseases become predictable nowadays . |
| 1244 | From my point of view , I strongly agree with the idea which encourages government to reduce the amount of money spent on the aged . |
| 1245 | But what is important is that , at least , these two methods give us hope . |
| 1246 | The scheme ensures the elderly have the money to pay should they require long-term medical care |
| 1247 | Electric appliances are accompanied with remote controls which are easy to use and remember so that the elderly can flick through television channels or turn on and off lights and fans themselves . |
| 1248 | Besides that , the government also provides financial assistance to needy elderly individuals who do not have the means to pay their medical expenses . |
| 1249 | How exactly do we define " easing of the aging process " ? |
| 1250 | Although we have not found how to cure many of such diseases yet , if it is detected soon , the life of the patient can be lengthened . |
| 1251 | In the end , though they may be so different , it is quite obvious that they are equally important and necessary for our lives and even the progress of mankind . |
| 1252 | Secondly , the future workforce of the country will be very productive . |
| 1253 | I am sure it will be fantastic news for all human beings . |
| 1254 | These accounts are meant for medical expenses , investments , emergencies and retirement to ensure that the citizens have sufficient money when they reach old age . |
| 1255 | Indeed , we are actively implementing various architectural developments and policies to meet the special needs of the aged . |
| 1256 | Its fashionable design has brought it many customers , especially the young people . |
| 1257 | We can also observe that wheelchair-accessible buses are progressing gradually . |
| 1258 | [ 6 ] Lastly this device no need for a comma here it provides confidence and independent living for the elderly . |
| 1259 | We are insured despite the high medical expenses of new inventions in the medical fields . |
| 1260 | This is where the government can provide financial aid for the healthcare services required by the aged . |
| 1261 | The government can subsidize part of the healthcare expenses incurred by the elderly . |
| 1262 | So it is not surprising that the two products both become very popular among the consumers as soon as they come out . |
| 1263 | The government has thus planned healthcare subsidies and benefits for the elderly . |

| 0 | As a result of economic growth , the government will be more able to pay for the retired elderly . |
|---|---|
| 1 | This would be good for the economy in the future , and would also result in more people supporting the elderly . |
| 2 | It is through this approach that pressing issues such as the economic implications of an aging population can be resolved and at the same time , more revenue can be generated to help the needy that includes the elderly as well . |
| 3 | Therefore , the government should spend more on the aged not only to ease their aging process , but also to tackle problems arising from a growing population . |
| 4 | In the end , the main idea is that with more funds from the economic growth , governments can do so much more to help these elderly people . |
| 5 | The government can help to achieve this by increasing the retirement age , creating more benefits and lowering barriers to employment of the elderly . |
| 6 | The benefits of economic growth would help to ensure the continuity of social benefits for the elderly , and by increasing the national income , there will be surplus to spend more money on the social needs of the nation . |
| 7 | The existence of the older workforce not only increases the input of the economy but also enables the elderly to gain some form of steady income . |
| 8 | This will allow for better economical growth for the country , which in turn means more funds for the government to spend on the elderly . |
| 9 | While it is important to provide funds for implementing policies to support the elderly , it is plausible for the government to work on areas which can aid both the country 's development as well as provide support towards the aged . |
| 10 | Hence , a strong economy would allow the nation to set aside more funds for the elderly . |
|---|---|
| 11 | In turn , with more revenue being generated , more benefits and financial aid could be provided to the aged which benefits the country as a whole . |
| 12 | This will increase the retirement age of the elderly and thus improve the economy and workforce in an aging population . |
| 13 | With a relatively higher income and a broader base of beneficiaries from the government financial support , the average elder citizen should be able to enjoy a better living quality . |
| 14 | Hence , encouraging later retirement will benefit the economy of the country and the elderly in saving up more for their old age . |
| 15 | This implemented policy highlights the importance of spending on the aged to ensure that they continue to contribute to the society and lead a meaningful life . |
| 16 | This will be beneficial for the elderly and also the working population , as the more affluent society will be able to pay for the healthcare expenses of the elderly . |
| 17 | With the growing population of the elderly , governments have put in a lot of effort , by providing financial assistance and grants for example , in order to ease the issue effectively . |
| 18 | Since the past several decades , there has been an increase in the life expectancy rate . This has probably caused the aging problem , and so there should be sufficient increase in the spending on the aged . This will eventually improve the living standard of the aged and thus contribute to the country 's development . |
| 19 | As an aging population can be a big problem to many countries , several social policies are put in place to ensure the old have enough money after retirement . |
| 20 | By doing so , the aged will be more appreciated by the public ; it also does help to improve the country 's economy with an increased workforce . |
| 21 | This policy will give older people a chance to work longer and contribute to the society . |
| 22 | To lengthen working lifespan , the government introduced policies to reduce elder dependency by raising eligibility age for public pensions and government incentives . |
| 23 | Money earned from investments in economy should be partly used to support the aged not only to lessen the burden on the families and to alleviate poverty from generations to generations , but also to ease the elderly 's lives . |
| 24 | However , we need to realize that the older population refers to people who are not only old but are also facing certain difficulties in supporting themselves and they may help to do better . |
| 25 | Thus , developing the economy will bring benefits to both the country and the aged in long run . |
| 26 | If older people keep working , they can pay for their own health care and contribute more for society . |
| 27 | Longer working years will allow the elderly to accumulate more wealth for future use in times of need . |
| 28 | Although more and more countries are faced with the aging problem , the government can make some policies like encouraging later retirement and giving out money based on financial needs . |
| 29 | With this additional wealth in the economy , the government would then have the capability to have more choices to look after the aged , for instance , holding more welfare programmes . |
| 30 | By increasing employability in the society , the workforce will be larger and will be able to support themselves and the elderly better . |
| 31 | The elderly can then benefit from larger social budget allocation as the economy grows . |
| 32 | On top of that , with a better economy , the elderly will be able earn more income if they decide to continue to work until retirement age . |
| 33 | With better jobs and increases in income , they can help the families to cope with the high standards of living and spiraling healthcare costs for the aged . |
| 34 | With more resources allocated to the country due to its economic growth , the government can also spend some of these resources on the elderly . |
| 35 | Subsequently , with the increased public funds due to a good economy , the government will have a larger budget for the aged . |
| 36 | Some of the most well-known strategies for dealing with the aging population are extending the retiring age , lengthening and encouraging financial planning during economically active year . |
| 37 | With this additional economic revenue generated , more public funding can be channeled to help the aged . |
| 38 | If the government can put in enough funds for the elderly and handle the aging problem holistically , this would benefit the country in the long run . |
| 39 | Ageing issues can be further eased if family members took the initiative to encourage their elderly members to stay longer in the workforce , so that they can contribute more to the society , and help to ease household financial stress . The elderly could also accumulate more wealth , and also stay healthier and wiser . |
| 40 | However working longer also means providing sufficient savings for old age ; it will also help increase the economic growth and instill a sense of belonging and self value to the elderly . |
| 41 | This is to encourage more people to work longer and reduce the dependency of old people on the government . |
| 42 | Economic growth leads to an increase in standard of living which benefits the whole society including the aged . |
| 43 | Besides , policy makers also plan to extend the financial security of the elderly through either raising the working age or prolonging retirement bursaries . |
| 44 | In addition , pension schemes and later retirement help to reduce elder dependency through providing a retirement plan and increasing the economic growth . |
| 45 | In fact , a more prosperous economy should provide the economic means to support the public spending on the aged . |
| 46 | Consequently , the government will have more money to provide better services for the elderly care . |
| 47 | The approaches that countries usually adopt to solve the aging issue include the prolonging of the working lives of the elderly and the provision of an array of welfare pension schemes for them . |
| 48 | With longer working lives , people will be able to save more money for old age . |
| 49 | With the population of aged getting larger in society a big sum of money is involved in helping the aged . |
| 50 | In the long run , investing in other areas would help to ease the problem of high expenditure on the elderly . |
| 51 | Life-long employability also helps the elderly to accumulate more wealth so that they can support themselves . |
| 52 | The elderly are encouraged to work longer and contribute to the growth of economy , thereby reducing elder dependency of fiscal cost . |
| 53 | In addition , a growing economy provides more sufficient funds to increase the pension and improve the welfare for elderly people . |
| 54 | These expenditures can help to improve the lifestyle of elderly and being healthy the elderly will be able to prolong their retirement which in turn helps in improving the economy . |
| 55 | The high saving rate is to enable the elderly to support themselves in old age and to provide for old-age dependency . |
| 56 | Our government has played a huge role in implementing and improving our policies to maximize aid for the elderly . |
| 57 | In summation , it is important that the government continue to provide financial assistance for the elderly due to the increasing number of senior citizens . |
| 58 | , the elderly is receiving more and more support from the government , which is a strategy in social welfare development . |
| 59 | As the economy develops , the country will generate more money and thus be able to spend a greater amount of money on programs such as health care support for the elderly . |
| 60 | Then , the government not only needs to help the aged but also the additional working age group . |
| 61 | However , social policies that are introduced by the government have helped the old folks through various ways in terms of savings and employment and many more . |
| 62 | By generating economic growth for the country , the aged would also benefit . |
| 63 | At the same time , when people work longer , they will be able to accumulate more wealth which they could use to support themselves in their old age . |
| 64 | Later retirement not only helps elders feel more active and healthier but also brings us a large sum of money . |
| 65 | Together with improvement from financial security , more effort is needed to put in living arrangements , health care and employability to ensure a better living condition for the elderly . |
| 66 | Therefore , health care for the aged should be included as part of the public expenditure fund , to lighten the burden of the working population .This is an investment that should not be overlooked . |
| 67 | Such policies include social policy like increasing the retirement age , allowing more employable immigrants into the country and introducing retirement schemes to ease basic needs after retirement . |
| 68 | With these , the aged can have longer working life , and thus accumulate more wealth to support themselves through their old age . |
| 69 | In other words , what the government should do is not merely promoting economic growth but also taking action to link each increasing level of economic growth with a correspondingly higher level of the quality of life for the elderly . |
| 70 | However it also emphasizes a greater need to be financially independent and helps create more elderly involvement in the society which contributes to the economy . |
| 71 | The elderly are greatly aided with their ageing process through government grants , healthcare benefits and many other social policies made available to them to be easily utilised . |
| 72 | Increasing economic growth of the country helps to relieve the strain of resources to meet the demands of the elderly . |
| 73 | Thus , by increasing the retirement age , people are able to work longer and in return , they are able to accumulate more wealth , which will enable them to be more independent financially . |
| 74 | This concludes that public spending on the aged population is fairly needed but to an extent that allows more improvement in other fields . |
| 75 | As the costs of living and healthcare have been increasing , these schemes are able to help reduce the financial burden of the aged . |
| 76 | However , some people insist that the government should take responsibility in looking after the old people by increasing their pensions and promoting the funding of programs for the elderly , for the elderly have contributed to the development of their countries and deserved the care and respect . |
| 77 | This helps facilitate the public spending on the elderly . |
| 78 | The increase of public spending on the aged is necessary because of the growing numbers among the aging population . |
| 79 | Moreover , with sufficient economic growth , more services are supplied to care for the old . |
| 80 | With longer working life , people will be able to accumulate more wealth which they can use to support themselves in their old age . |
| 81 | Therefore , it would be desirable to have the elderly join the workforce as they could serve to aid in the economy with their spending power and even reduce their need for social welfare , which can be highly taxing to an economy . |
| 82 | Indeed , money has to be spent to curb ageing problems , but it is society 's responsibility to ensure a desirable standard of living for the elderly and to constantly fulfill the varying needs of this group of senior citizens . |
| 83 | One of these measures is to increase public spending so as to ensure that the aged are taken care of . |
| 84 | When more work is available , more people will be able earn and save more , and this means that the standard of living for the working people will improve and they will be able to support the elderly as they are more affluent . |
| 85 | In addition , much has been done to provide the essential financial assistance for the elderly . |
| 86 | Thus , besides the critical assessment of allocating and maximising the use of the country 's resources , the government also have a part to play in ensuring that people have a smooth transition into old age . |
| 87 | This could also keep the older generation longer in the economy and provide for themselves for more years to come , instead of relying on the government , which may in turn , reduce the need to spend on the elderly . |
| 88 | Having an aging population is a challenge and there is a need for public spending to assist the aged throughout their aging process . |
| 89 | This policy is effective in the sense that it not only increases the size of the working population so that the government will not have to increase the tax base , but also helps the elderly to save up more money for their future needs after they retire . |
| 90 | There are many implications for this issue and one of them is that the spending by the government on the aged has increased in order to deal with this issue . |
| 91 | So , if people can work longer , they will be able to accumulate more savings that they could use to support themselves in their old age . |
| 92 | One of the most direct solutions to the aging problem is to allow more public spending on the aged . |
| 93 | Therefore , economic growth would ensure the continuation of welfare programs for the elderly in the long run . |
| 94 | The government could use the money to help the aged and ease the aging process . |
| 95 | Because of this , it is important to make a policy that will be able to support the elderly in their late life . |
| 96 | There exists many other aspects of a country that needs more funding and , in some cases , spending more in these other aspects can actually help a country 's aging population problem . |
| 97 | These funds are then used to either solve a current problem in a country , for example , an ageing population where help is needed to ensure the livelihood of the older generation in order to ease the burden the current generation has on taking care of the old . |
| 98 | More funds are thus available to finance additional projects for the needy including the aged . |
| 99 | Therefore , public spending on the aged is crucial in ensuring the continued productivity of the aged which in turn benefits the country . |
| 100 | In this manner , the working population will have more funds left over to stimulate economic growth , or even pay for their own retirement . |
| 101 | The policy is quite useful in grappling with the aging issue from the economic view point as it encourages financial planning by individuals during their economically active years and lowers such as their burden hindering the younger generation 's . |
| 102 | More public spending on the aged is critical as this expenditure on implementation of policies or infrastructures would be an advantage to all . |
| 103 | With the increase in employment rates , the standard of living will improve and people will have more money for retirement . |
| 104 | This will ensure that the huge older population can contribute effectively to the workforce . |
| 105 | It is true that by letting the elderly people carry on working can increase manpower in labor markets and simultaneously increase their savings to support themselves during old age . |
| 106 | With this extra money , the government can have more to spend for the whole society , and the money for the aged will be increased as well . |
| 107 | The main reason for this phenomenon is that money needs to be spent on the aged now so as to ease the aging process , if not , years down the road , public spending might have to increase significantly as compared to now due to the lack of spending on the aged . |
| 108 | These reasons continue to urge the government to expand public spending on the aged so as to sustain the needs and livelihood of the aged within the population . |
| 109 | In conclusion , I believe that there is indeed a need for public spending on the aged as the aged are still able to contribute much when it comes to the nation 's development such as through their experiences in life . |
| 110 | Also , when people work longer , they will be able to accumulate more money to be used to support themselves in their old age . |
| 111 | To tackle the issue of an aging population , the government has implemented some measures that are helping the elderly to age comfortably . |
| 112 | This policy is used to encourage them to accumulate more wealth to support themselves during old age . |
| 113 | When the elderly returning to the workforce they will be able to accumulate more wealth and save more so that they will be able to be self sufficient when they are older . |
| 114 | It is therefore crucial for governments to extend assistance to the elderly in the form of medical subsidies , allowances , rebates and other kinds of financial aid to ensure that the needs of the elderly are met and protected . |
| 115 | This will help the working people to save more money and be more financially independent when they are old and have no income . |
| 116 | Therefore , this economic policy helps to promote growth for the country and also helps the elderly to prepare for their old age . |
| 117 | In economy , the government has helped older workers to be economically productive by encouraging employers to hire , re-hire , and retain more mature workers . |
| 118 | Thus , economically , elderly people will be able to work longer and be more independent by supporting themselves for their retirement . |
| 119 | Therefore , providing opportunities for prolonged working age can essentially alleviate labor shortages and help bolster personal retirement savings . |
| 120 | One may argue that the high cost of living justifies the need for public spending on the aged . |
| 121 | One reason is that the government can still provide benefits to the elderly by developing programmes that will benefit all age groups . |
| 122 | Therefore , the governments shoulder the heavy responsibility of easing the aging process through helping individuals and in turn helping the public as a whole . |
| 123 | An increase in economic growth will also mean that people are earning more , and thus there will be an increase in the taxes which will be used in providing better medical support to the elderly . Thus , this will provide for both the working people and the elderly . |
| 124 | By working longer , the elderly can accumulate more wealth , which can be used in their post-retirement life . |
| 125 | No doubt it is essential to take care of the elderly who have contributed much to society during their younger days , but the government must still ensure that there is enough funding on other areas of the country 's development . |
| 126 | If the plan goes well , it may stabilize or even increase GDP which will in turn provide more funds for the elderly . |
| 127 | It is important that the needs of the elderly are factored into policy formulation as the demand for welfare benefits and healthcare subsidies will rise as the population ages . |
| 128 | In addition , the responsibility of supporting the elderly does not only lie on the shoulders of the government , the elderly themselves should plan for their retirements when they are still economically active . |
| 129 | It is well-known that our society is aging and there are strategies currently in place to aid the aged that would lessen their financial burden or other needs . |
| 130 | The main reason is that spending on the elderly will stimulate the economy . |
| 131 | The elderly of the nation will also be benefiting from this economic growth indirectly .Caregivers , consisting largely of working adults , will be earning more income in parallel to the nation prosperity . |
| 132 | This retirement scheme helps to reduce pressure on the economy as it allows the elderly to have a considerable sum of money in the future to support themselves . |
| 133 | Government spending is necessary for the welfare of the elderly but the bigger portion of it must be retained for other parts of national development . |
| 134 | More importantly , if we extended people 's working age , which would give them several years to devote and save more for their old age , we would greatly ease the aging problem . |
| 135 | Despite the fact that this social policy requires a lot of money , it is crucial because senior citizens are part of our society and as responsible members of society , it is our duty to take care of their welfare when they are unable to do so themselves . |
| 136 | The aging population causes a lot of problems , since a lot of money will be used to support the elderly . |
| 137 | Although it is true that when the elders work more , they can earn more , hence reducing old-age dependency , the implied cost may not be less than the benefit . |
| 138 | A larger workforce allows employees to save for a longer period of time to strengthen their financial status for their retirement . |
| 139 | Due to this situation , many countries have made huge amount of public spending on the aged in order to ease the various problems that came along with it . |
| 140 | Since the human 's life expectancy has generally increased over the decades , it is essential that elderly work and earn more income for their retirement while it is possible . |
| 141 | This , coupled with other initiatives such as the and incentives for companies to hire elderly workers , serves to encourage longer working lives and decrease dependency among elderly workers . |
| 142 | In addition , the more time older people can work , the more savings or pension they will have to secure their life sufficiently during old age without being dependent on their children or the governmental fund . |
| 143 | A new welfare law with higher retirement ages could also be passed so that the elders would have more time to accumulate wealth in preparing for the future . |
| 144 | The elderly are encouraged to work longer to accumulate more wealth , which could be used to support themselves . |
| 145 | Hence , public spending from the government is needed to provide the elderly with a comfortable environment to enjoy their retired lives . |
| 146 | Adopting other solutions to reduce the effects of an aging population , such as extending the working lives of the elderly , may also require the government 's spending to provide incentives for them to work longer . |
| 147 | For example , the financial problem can be solved by encouraging the elderly to work longer . |
| 148 | Effective use of their expertise also helps create a more productive economy and generate more economic income which could be diverted to helping the elderly population . |
| 149 | To ease the aging process of the elderly , the government has also introduced and encouraged the need for working individuals to prepare a fund for their future use . |
| 150 | There would be a rise in wealth and the working population would actually have more monetary assets to support the aged . |
| 151 | In this way , focusing on growing the country 's economy as a mean to help support the aged seems wise . |
| 152 | It also signifies that the elderly has to either prolong retirement or increase their saving in order to support themselves after retirement . |
| 153 | Hence , this leads to an increase in national income which could then be used for the aged in future . |
| 154 | This helps to increase the country 's productivity among the aged and the aged are still able to sustain their basic means of living . |
| 155 | By doing so , it can partially relieve the society of the increasing financial burden of an aging population . |
| 156 | It is widely believed that the government should care for the elderly , in return for their valuable contributions to the country . |
| 157 | Apart from providing financial support to the elderly , the government should try to help the elderly in other ways so as to reduce the dependency of the elderly on the government . |
| 158 | Instead , the government should support the aged by providing work that are suitable for them as well as providing support for their medical and social spending in order to help them cope with the rising issue of social and healthcare cost . |
| 159 | These policies have benefited the elderly and will continue to provide assistance to them in the future . |
| 160 | That is an effective way to solve some economic and social problems caused by aging population . |
| 161 | By doing so , the elderly will be able to work longer and thus , they will be able to save up more money in order to support themselves during their old age . |
| 162 | In addition , not only does it equip the elders with the essential skills to continue contributing to the workforce , it also increases their employability . |
| 163 | Expanding the economy is a more effective strategy to ease the aging process compared to simply giving out public pension to the elderly . |
| 164 | In such instances , the government needs to provide more financial help to this group of elderly who are more vulnerable . |
| 165 | However , reality remains that later retirement will ensure the senior citizens a high quality of life in their twilight years . |
| 166 | This gives the elderly an opportunity to work to supplement his/her own expenses , and it also helps in raising the productivity of the workforce as well . |
| 167 | As the country ultimately benefits from the productivity of the aged , it is rational for the government to utilise public spending on the aged . |
| 168 | The positive impacts of raising the retirement age still outweigh its ' negative impacts as nothing can replace the valuable experience that the elders would bring to the companies and the fact that they would also be able to earn more savings to look after themselves . |
| 169 | From another perspective , an increase in the aging population will lead to an increase in government spending on the elderly . |
| 170 | This means that public funds should be given to providing for the aged as economic growth can be dependent on other factors . |
| 171 | Therefore , maintaining a healthy lifestyle , saving up for the future and contributing monthly to their CPF account assist citizens to prepare them for better retirement and lower their economic burden . |
| 172 | Public spending on social security and health care will directly benefit the aged people in the country . |
| 173 | Therefore , it is important to help the older population remain employed and promote active aging . |
| 174 | There would be more people supporting the old and the aged would be better taken care of . |
| 175 | Policies such as encouraging a long work life and having mandatory savings have been implemented to enable each person to be self-reliant during old age . |
| 176 | " Encouraging senior citizens to work will help them to contribute to society , and at the same time , ensure that they are financially independent . |
| 177 | Support services and subsidies are provided to families with aged dependents so as to assist them and at the same time , help the aged to remain physically and socially active . |
| 178 | Along with it , we have also observed a huge increase in public spending for elderly housing , healthcare and retirement welfare . |
| 179 | This ageing population problem can be dealt with by increasing the working population , so that it could share the burden of caring for the aged . |
| 180 | There should be an increase in public spending on the aged because of consistent increase in inflation rate throughout the past several years . |
| 181 | The idea of extending their retirement age is beneficial to both the elderly and the company itself . |
| 182 | Later retirement not only secures a better pension entitlement for the future , but also provide a direct mean of allowing people to supplement their income in later life ; and thus helping them to maintain their standard of living during retirement . |
| 183 | In order to let the aged enjoy a relatively good life , governments grant pension and other benefits for the old . |
| 184 | Governments help to reduce the burden of the elderly by subsidizing healthcare , giving financial aid and also forcing people to save for retirement . |
| 185 | There is a need to understand that the amount of reliance the aged have on the public is quite significant . It is also necessary to take into account the contributions that the aged have made , as well as to recognize the more substantial advancement in . |
| 186 | Initially , increasing the certain age of retirement would alleviate the burden of an aging population . |
| 187 | To take care of this issue , public spending for the aged needs to be increased . |
| 188 | Longer working lives also meant that elders would continue to play an active role in contributing to the economy and society , thus making them have a sense of fulfilment . |
| 189 | The elderly can have a longer time to save up for retirement , decreasing potential financial problems . |
| 190 | Besides , such cost may even be greater than the original cost of running welfare programs for the elderly . |
| 191 | One of our current policies to ease the aging process is by encouraging the inclusion of elderly in our workforce . |
| 192 | Also , having the elderly joining the workforce can increase the total productivity and reduce the burden piled on family members . |
| 193 | From the point of view of the elderly , the more public expenses governments spend on them , the better the situation would be . |
| 194 | In addition , working adults would be able to earn more income in a stable economy . |
| 195 | As more people live longer , it is necessary for proper public spending to enhance various social security systems as tthe aged are more vulnerable to be discriminated against in a capital-driven society nowadays . |
| 196 | Currently , the government is encouraging more healthy and able elderly people to work longer by lowering barriers for employing elderly people . |
| 197 | With the elderly working , they can gain an additional source of income for their family and increase the productivity of the society . |
| 198 | These policies along with early retirement planning would help to ensure that the elderly will be economically independent and lead a better life . |
| 199 | Diverting money to such areas proves to provide benefits in both contribution to the economy and aiding in the health where the aged ones are concerned . |
| 200 | While the latter is important and inevitable , our government is being challenged to cope with the need to increase allocation of public funds for the elderly with a graying population . |
| 201 | The elderly must be respected because they are a factorr in making society better-off in economically . |
| 202 | In spite of focusing only on the aged , diverting money into the economy can not only bring benefits to the country but also help solve the aging problem . |
| 203 | The amount of public spending used to support the elderly has been seen as a more constructive expenditure on other areas of development of the nation . |
| 204 | This proves that the government 's promotion of a longer working life have effectively influenced the mindset and convinced the older population to contribute to the workforce for a longer period of time . |
| 205 | Secondly , extending individuals ' working life will often result in the accumulation of more wealth which can be used to support them in their old age . |
| 206 | Nevertheless , it is important for the government to implement feasible policies to assist the aging population . |
| 207 | Giving everyone a pension means that some people 's living standard will be affected but giving out money based on the fanatical need means everyone can live in a good condition . |
| 208 | The aged can still contribute to our society economically and socially , hence there is a need to allocate more money for them . |
| 209 | The increase in efficiency more revenue to the country and therefore the government can spare more money for the elderly . |
| 210 | Therefore , government 's expenditure on the elderly should be allocated such that it is sufficient to help those elderly who are in need . |
| 211 | This rising trend in the median age of the population has drawn much attention to the welfare benefits of the elderly . |
| 212 | Therefore , the government has to play a part to help the aged if they have any financial difficulties , or in any other ways . |
| 213 | Through these policies , the elderly will be more financially independent and well taken care of . |
| 214 | The government is helping the general population of the elderly in terms of providing subsidies on research and development such as emphasizing on the importance of filial obligation , finding cures for illnesses that plague the elderly , and encouraging greater productivity . |
| 215 | Besides it also allows the accumulation of more wealth for the elderly to be more self-sufficient after they retire . |
| 216 | Hence , the government is paying more attention to solving these problems caused by aging population through various means . |
| 217 | With the right economic plan and policies , the elderly can effectively contribute back to the growth of the country . |
| 218 | In order to ease the aging process , the government introduced later retirement and incentives to companies that employed elderly . |
| 219 | However , the rising standard of living can cause some factors that will contribute to the aging population such as high-quality health care , which helps people live longer . |
| 220 | These benefits of longer working lifespan can be made possible if employers are willing to hire the aged , who can then be self-sufficient with minimum , or no , help from the government . |
| 221 | Governments should therefore set aside more funds to support the aged and provide more facilities for them . |
| 222 | They would also be able to obtain more wealth which they could use to support themselves in old age . |
| 223 | Consequently , a larger tax base should then sufficiently provide a larger portion of public finance for the aged . |
| 224 | Additional profits reaped from the investment in other areas of the country 's development could in turn contribute to on the elderly significantly . |
| 225 | On the contrary , the effect of this ageing population will increase the expenditure in both the healthcare and welfare services , with the aged being the major beneficiary in both areas . |
| 226 | Another point is that the elderly , in their younger age , would have contributed to the society and the economy . |
| 227 | And with sufficient economic development , there will be more choices for governments to care for the old . |
| 228 | Some of these include encouraging later retirement , , encouraging the elderly and their families to take more responsibility for their health , etc . |
| 229 | Therefore , in most countries , governments have increased the retirement age in order to encourage the elderly to continue working to increase productivity . |
| 230 | Also , this has achieved the reduction of elder dependency by encouraging later retirement and longer working lives . |
| 231 | , a prosperous economy not only lengthens the of the general population , but also allow people to live more healthily and lighten their social burden on elderly care . |
| 232 | Therefore , the society has to maintain a high standard of living as a developed world and since the elderly form the bulk of the society ; we should spend more to help improve their lives so as not to lower our overall standard of living . |
| 233 | This scheme is helpful in easing the burden of the elderly as it provides financial security for them . |
| 234 | What is more urgent and practical compared to purely spending more money on the aged is to restructure the pension , subsidy and medical insurance systems to ensure that limited government 's money can effectively help the aged . |
| 235 | As reported , " most of the elderly are in favor of raising the retirement age due to financial security " . |
| 236 | As a result of the growing aging population , public spending on the aged has increased in an attempt to minimize the negative impacts of a fast aging population . |
| 237 | By working longer and saving more , the elderly can build up their retirement nest egg much faster than before . |
| 238 | This may again increase the amount of public spending on the aged . |
| 239 | Then the countries will be stronger and stronger , supporting the aged with large amount of money . |
| 240 | Despite the fact that ageing population is imposing more cost on the government , their well being must still be taken care of . |
| 241 | Various measures have been by the state to cope with the rising needs of the elderly . |
| 242 | Therefore with careful planning of expenditure , solving aging problem generously would benefit the country in long run . |
| 243 | Thus more people are able to work and accumulate savings for their old age . |
| 244 | This will have the effect of helping them to be financially independent even beyond their retirement age . |
| 245 | In terms of economics , old age financial support is the government 's main concern and therefore mechanisms that provide citizens with financial security in old age have been introduced . |
| 246 | Therefore it is important to spend on the aged now to ease the aging process years later . |
| 247 | Moreover , to a large extent , the government should favour funding programmes and policies for the elderly so their interests are well looked after . |
| 248 | As the population continues to age , government spending on the aged will probably increase as more and more people would rely on the government for their needs . |
| 249 | Because of that , the government would be able to collect more taxes , which can be used to aid the aging population . |
| 250 | However , with the aging population increasing in number , more public spending , including pension and health provision , is expended on the aged . |
| 251 | Another government policy that benefits the aged is the increment of the retirement age . |
| 252 | Hence , with the implementation of such policies , majority of the financial difficulties that the senior citizens faced in their old age would be alleviated . |
| 253 | Therefore , the government plays a crucial role in addressing the challenges of an ageing population through implementing programs which involve expenditure by the government . |
| 254 | Therefore , it is important for them to build up a financial reserve to support themselves in their aging process . |
| 255 | The aged may be a liability to the country due to the increasing cost of looking after them . |
| 256 | Such practices aim to raise the average quality of individual lives and , at the same time , at a societal level , contribute to higher growth , lower dependency burdens and substantial cost savings in pensions and health . |
| 257 | This effort should be continued as this would guarantee the living standard of the aged . |
| 258 | Hence funds are needed to prepare for the ageing population who live longer now . |
| 259 | Due to the rapid economic growth , majority of the populations are earning enough for a living and are already having sufficient savings for old age . |
| 260 | When the economy improves , almost everyone , from the individual consumer to large multi-national companies , in the society will be able to benefit , as opposed to spending on just the elderly where only one group of people will really benefit from the funding . |
| 261 | Furthermore , investment in these areas will help to solve the aging problem as well . |
| 262 | Therefore , it is critical to spend more in these areas to develop the country 's economy rather to adhere to the needs of the aging population and bear full financial support . |
| 263 | In addition , spending on the elderly might increase the financial burden of the future generations . |
| 264 | The government and the public have done so much over the past few years in helping the elderly in their aging process . |
| 265 | In the case of government pensions , the heavy spending of public funds on the aged may take a toll on other areas of the nation 's development . |
| 266 | Government should provide a wider protection net for the elderly , such as implementing health insurances , promoting health campaigns and better welfare programs so as to reduce the mental and financial burden on the aged . |
| 267 | This/ These will also increase government spending on the elderly . |
| 268 | To tackle the problem , public spending should be given more to the aged . |
| 269 | Hence , in order to ensure that the aged are adequately provided for , that the nation will be able to develop the nation as a gracious society , public spending in these areas must be sufficient . |
| 270 | Instead , the government should increase their spending on the aged so that they can reach out to more needy senior citizens . |
| 271 | Some people think about it as a burden to the national economy which requires spending a lot on pension as well as health issues , while others argue that old people have the right to enjoy public money . |
| 272 | In my opinion , the government should use much more money towards taking care of the elderly due to the following : Firstly , the aged are citizens who have contributed a lot of money to the National Treasury through compulsory taxes like land-tax , income tax... therefore they deserve receiving more care from the authorities . |
| 273 | Governments around the world have been actively seeking measures to cope with the problem , one of which is to increase public spending on the aged . |
| 274 | Another way to ease the aging process is to encourage " active aging " , which refers to encouraging later retirement and longer working lives of each individual . |
| 275 | Governments have adjusted national budgets to increase public spending on the aged including expenditure on healthcare , housing , pensions and transportation to cater to the needs of the aged . |
| 276 | As such , policies that were introduced had much more emphasis on health and welfare benefits , where the aged are the key beneficiaries . |
| 277 | There is an urgent need for the government to support these elderly , especially those without dependants , so as to prevent unnecessary negative social impacts on the society . |
| 278 | This will encourage the elder group to return to the workforce and achieve a reduction of elder dependency on the government . |
| 279 | Thus , spending on the aged has to be controlled for the benefits of future generations . |
| 280 | Hence , the elderly would be able live longer with their retirement funds . |
| 281 | It will be more realistic if a calculated amount of spending is being distributed to the aged . |
| 282 | Hence , it would be a wiser choice for the government to provide for the elderly population as the huge population will require a significantly large amount of funding . |
| 283 | Thus , public support to finance the aged is extremely important . |
| 284 | These have helped to increase the employability rate for elder workers . |
| 285 | The aged should be able to enjoy social security during their later years . |
| 286 | It is easily seen that if all the other parts of the public facilities are improved strongly , the living standard will increase for all the people in the country , including the elderly . |
| 287 | Clearly , public spending on the aged is required , but other areas which will affect the development of the country are also equally important , if not more important . |
| 288 | People with higher income will have better retirement life compared . |
| 289 | In short , encouraging later retirement of employees is an effective solution to reduce the burden of old age . |
| 290 | Many economic schemes are being implemented to help the elderly deal with financial problems . |
| 291 | Continuous funding on elderly welfare may cause the elderly to be over reliant on welfare . |
| 292 | With policies , resources and money set aside for elders , elders are prepared to retire and enjoy retirement in a more fulfilling manner . |
| 293 | Those who can support themselves , either by their own savings or by support of family , should help reduce financial stress exerted on programs for the elderly . |
| 294 | More public spending has to be channeled to cater to the needs of the aged . |
| 295 | In an aging population , the elderly count for a high percent in the workforce , so increase in the budget for them seems to be rational but in the long term , it will make the aging process more serious . |
| 296 | For instance , there are social policies such as introducing advanced insurance schemes that encourages young people to start saving more to be financially secure in their old age . |
| 297 | People would be able to afford to look after their elderly . |
| 298 | Basically , families that give birth to more than one child will get economic support from the government as they help ease the ageing process . |
| 299 | Most of the aged have proved that they can continue to work and contribute to the society in one way or another and thus their welfare should be looked at as well . |
| 300 | Employment can reduce elder dependency and provide some financial support for the aged to finance some of their activities . |
| 301 | More policies can be implemented to encourage individual responsibility in taking care of the aged so as to reduce the burden on the government . |
| 302 | A need for expanding social care services for the elderly as well . |
| 303 | This helps one to save up more for retirement in the later years . |
| 304 | Thus , public funds are essential for the aged to uphold their standard of living . |
| 305 | A second argument is that financial support for the aged is essential to maintain a certain level of standard of living for the aged . |
| 306 | People can work longer , accumulate more wealth and increase their savings . |
| 307 | Secondly , the increase in the rate of elderly people can cause trouble in health care costs which means more funds used for maintaining a healthy life for the portion of society no longer able to work . |
| 308 | In other words , Governments that spend more on this area will not only find it beneficial to those who are presently young but also for the future elderly population . |
| 309 | The government has increased national expenditure to provide extra subsidies and financial aid for old age . |
| 310 | This is because by working for a longer period of time , they support themselves with their salary and save up for future use . |
| 311 | The upgrading of housing and encouraging later retirement age policies have indeed helped to ease the aging process to a large extent . |
| 312 | With an increased population , there will be an increase in the workforce which would in turn lead to an increase in income tax Thus , this will solve the problems of labour shortage , as well as the heavy financial strain placed on the economically active population . |
| 313 | In addition , some social welfare programs , especially those which help to resolve aging problems , including providing financial help to the needy elderly , are under way . |
| 314 | One of the strategies is to encourage longer employment for citizens and lower barriers for the employment of elderly people . |
| 315 | Based on this situation , some claim that the government should automatically spend more on the aged , who deserve to be helped . |
| 316 | To summarize , government encourages later retirement in order to reduce elderly dependency and implement social policies such as subsidy on housing medical fees . |
| 317 | An aging population affects the country 's economy because of the high retirement rate and the increased need for providing healthcare for the elderly . |
| 318 | Today , the government emphasizes more on the aged and spends a large sum of money to assist them . |
| 319 | Also , the government can implement more policies to allow the population to be more independent and increase the awareness of preparing for old age . |
| 320 | Saving and investing more of their income , for instance , are some ways to prepare for their old age . |
| 321 | The rising trend of companies hiring a greater number of older workers is providing older folks greater financial stability , allowing them to have the spending power to live independently . |
| 322 | Over the years , the expenditure on the aged has relatively increased due to a shift towards an aging population . |
| 323 | I feel that public spending on the aged should be given more attention and more funds , as in the long-term , the aging population could potentially become a major problem . |
| 324 | Also , with the rising cost of living , the amount of funds needed to care for the elderly will rise tremendously . |
| 325 | Despite the above , it may be argued that as the elderly contributed significantly to the country 's development in their younger days , in view of their long term hard work , they should be entitled to more benefits than the rest of the population . |
| 326 | Because this group of people will generally make up a significant number in our population , the government should divert more funds to improve its healthcare system and also upgrade its infrastructure and facilities to cater to an older population . |
| 327 | The government should gradually increase the budget for the elderly every year alongside its economic growth . |
| 328 | Hence , help is heavily needed from the government to keep the poor aged alive . |
| 329 | What is most important is that longer working lives give the aged opportunities to accumulate wealth for later lives , making them less vulnerable to the changes of outer aids . |
| 330 | Hence , the governments propose a solution of encouraging working aged citizens to work more or increasing the inflow of immigrants so that government 's tax income is enhanced and so does the subsidy for the elders . |
| 331 | Last but not least , most elderly people after all have contributed to the development of the country during their young age through productive services as well as taxes . |
| 332 | It is true that there are multiple advantages supporting public spending on the aged . |
| 333 | The underlying objective of implementing such policies is to prolong the period of time that the aging workforce can assist the country for progression . |
| 334 | Similarly , the government has to provide elderly benefits as most of the elderly are no longer in the workforce and thus have no regular income . |
| 335 | Public spending on the aged is therefore deemed necessary to avoid such a crisis . |
| 336 | This will ameliorate the deteriorating effect on a nation 's economy due to ageing progression . |
| 337 | The increase in retirement age will give people a few more years of earnings to build up social security and savings . |
| 338 | Dependence on the government can also be reduced by encouraging later retirement ages , longer working lives and lower requirements to elder employment , which can be achieved alone with an increase on the eligibility of age for pensions and government incentives for the elderly . |
| 339 | As a result , public spending on the aged has been on the increase . |
| 340 | Some countries provide incentives to the elderly for their daily and long term needs . |
| 341 | With the rising number of elderly in an aging nation , the amount of money spent in this sector would increase as well . |
| 342 | Critics of this position point out that when more money is spent on the aged , it generates economic growth . |
| 343 | A country will be able to progress if its citizens do their part in planning for their retirement . |
| 344 | Also , the government helps relieve financial stress by subsidizing healthcare costs , and providing financial aids to the elderly . |
| 345 | Some may argue that the measure of increasing the retirement age should be able to reduce the negative effects of the aging population . |
| 346 | Some people argue that welfare of the aged is the full responsibility of the government as they have contributed to the society for many years and it is a way of showing appreciation to them . |
| 347 | Instead of increasing spending on the old , the problem can also be tackled by encouraging the elderly to lead longer working lives . |
| 348 | One of the problems arising from an aging population is the increase in elderly dependency ratio . |
| 349 | It may be true that without help from the government , some senior citizens would struggle just to survive . |
| 350 | Clearly , economic growth not only affects the population positively but the elderly are also benefiting from it . |
| 351 | The next most apparent concerned is the need to ensure one 's financial security during old age , either through retirement savings or an extension of employment years . |
| 352 | An increase in the population of the aging group implies there will be more government spending on the aged . |
| 353 | By encouraging later retirement it will help to reduce elder dependency . |
| 354 | By tapping on the large number of elderly , the country 's workforce will be increased and more people will be available to drive the country 's economy to encourage growth . |
| 355 | Without the government 's initiatives , the elderly people are going to go through a hard time coping in society . |
| 356 | Hence , it is vital that the Government does its part by diverting more of its spending to help the aged . |
| 357 | Our population is aging and by spending more on the aged , people can be assured that when they grow old , the government will be there to support them . |
| 358 | With an aging population , spending on the elderly is bound to increase . |
| 359 | As the society is facing an aging population problem , the retirement age would increase . |
| 360 | The aged can still help to develop and push the economy to greater heights since they still have the capability to work . |
| 361 | At present , a substantial amount is spent on the elderly every year through direct and indirect ways , such as giving out subsidies or building elderly-friendly infrastructure . |
| 362 | However , since the elderly in their younger age may have contributed to the society and the economy , we should spend a certain amount of money for their needs if they have problems dealing with money issues . |
| 363 | Thus it is important to spend more now to ease the problems of aging population , if not years later , the problems of an aging population might heap up . |
| 364 | In other words , governments greatly appreciate the contributions of the elderly and try to offer them more , though they are constrained by a limited budget to do so . |
| 365 | Nonetheless , the aged will also benefit monetarily when the economy prospers and tax payment is increased . |
| 366 | Therefore , the government has been promoting active aging to help the elderly to engage in a healthy and happy lifestyle . |
| 367 | It would tremendously relief the government 's burden as they could support themselves in their old age . |
| 368 | By having the government to set the standard of caring for the elderly , the public should also share the economic burden of caring for the aged . |
| 369 | Alternatively , government can also look at ways to further enhance the current Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , MediSave and MediSheild schemes to enforce compulsory savings during one 's financial active years to prepare them for old age . |
| 370 | In addition , by providing work for the elderly , they can earn enough money for themselves to spend even though they were unable to save during their economically active years . |
| 371 | Public spending should be channeled into developing infrastructure that caters to the needs of the aged , subsidies to lighten the financial burden of the medical bills of the aged and also activities to help bridge the elderly and society . |
| 372 | On the contrary , the increase in public spending on the aged by the government will increase the fiscal budget . |
| 373 | Therefore , the retirement age should be extended and people should be educated to work longer and save more for their future livelihood . |
| 374 | It is said that the government should spend a lot of money on the aging population in order to reduce the burden on young people . |
| 375 | Since an ageing population would translate into a growing number of 'beneficiaries ' , the figures of public expenditure would thus be expected to multiply and eventually become such a vast amount that it could go beyond the financial capability of the welfare state societies . |
| 376 | Rather , what I try to point out is the elderly could stand to benefit even if the national budget is spent on other fields. . |
| 377 | As the aging population grows , spending should increase proportionately to ensure that the elderly are taken care of . |
| 378 | Hence , public spending on the aged will increase . |
| 379 | The strategy of lowering the barriers to elder employment is effective in increasing the rate of employment among the aged . |
| 380 | This will benefit both the country and the elderly . |
| 381 | However , this may not be true as with judicious planning of their spending , it is not impossible for them to save more while they are still active in the work force and be financially independent in old age . |
| 382 | It creates an environment where people will have accumulated more wealth in the early stage of their life so they can support themselves in the later stage of their life . |
| 383 | In this way , governments can make people aware of the necessity of actively working to accumulate more money to support themselves in their retirement . |
| 384 | Our policy is to help each person to build up his assets and savings , so that he or she will be ready for old age . |
| 385 | Certainly , when the number of aged people rises , public spending on this group will have to be raised as well to take care of this group . |
| 386 | This move will increase the period of time for individual savings to last during retirement . |
| 387 | Existing policies would be rendered inadequate without the family being responsible for the care of its older members . |
| 388 | This is a phenomenon with dire consequences , such as having to direct large amounts of money to take care of the elderly . |
| 389 | Many elderly people in society are still in need of public funds to support them financially , to subsidise their costly healthcare bills and also to enjoy more elderly services and facilities . |
| 390 | One way to deal with the financial challenges of an ageing population is to enforce a compulsory saving scheme for their old age . |
| 391 | Due to the size of the increasing aging population , public spending on the aged has been rising . |
| 392 | The elderly have made a valuable contribution to society as they have supported economic activities as consumers , have acted actively as volunteer , have provided financial help for their children and grandchildren . |
| 393 | Initially government will top up the remainder sum for the elderly so that the welfare of elderly will not be jeopardized . |
| 394 | This may eventually benefit both the individual and the company ; elderly receive additional income from their work , whereas companies gain from the work produced by the experienced elderly . |
| 395 | By increasing the eligibility age for public pensions , we are forced to retire at a later age and we will be able to accumulate more money as we grow older . |
| 396 | These policies will increase the older workers chances of continuing their employability and building up their retirement savings ( MCYS , 2008 ) . |
| 397 | As the problem of an aging population arises , governments turn their attention to this group of people and provide some assistance for them . |
| 398 | Firstly , expenditure should be placed more on the economy itself because with economic growth , the working population will be more self-sustainable and be able to support themselves when they retire . |
| 399 | In addition , financial factors are also incentives for life long working , as they can support their current lives and save more for the rest of their lives if they had decided to keep working . |
| 400 | Hence , there would be a need for governments to increase expenditure on the aged to accommodate this burgeoning age group . |
| 401 | However , the aged are still be able to be involved in the work field by extending their working lives and accumulating wealth for their later years . |
| 402 | Therefore , having longer life span does help to ease the aging process . |
| 403 | This is to ensure that the elderly will have enough money and be ready for old age . |
| 404 | Moreover a healthy ageing population would also mean that more workers will be available for deployment and hence contributing to the nation 's productivity and development indirectly . |
| 405 | The elder population , equipped with better skills , now has greater ability to contribute to the workforce . |
| 406 | As a result , public spending on the aged will increase and eat into the spending of other areas of a country 's development . |
| 407 | Furthermore , it might also create reliance in the elderly to depend on the government to provide for all their needs through public spending . |
| 408 | The aged might have devoted their youth and even their whole life to serving the society ; and public spending on the aged is therefore necessary . |
| 409 | The increasing dependency of the elderly is causing a burden to the national budget . |
| 410 | Therefore , it is necessary to improve their knowledge of planning for the future through financial planning so that they can cope with aging . |
| 411 | Being an active part of the workforce in their earlier days , the elderly had contributed to the country 's economy in a way . |
| 412 | It is important to sufficiently provide for the older generation , for they were the ones who toiled and contributed to shape the progress of the nation today . |
| 413 | With this rising aging population , many issues related to old age become significant , especially the public spending issue . |
| 414 | Therefore , it is important for the government to step in to provide help for these poor elderly so that they could have a proper life . |
| 415 | Therefore , it is feasible to expand public spending on the aged . |
| 416 | They must also consider the impact on the elderly if there were no financial support for the elderly . |
| 417 | With a demand for a higher standard of living , the government may have to divert more public spending to look after the increasing needs of the aged . |
| 418 | Hence a highly skilled workforce in turn will boost the country economy and sustain the additional demands of a graying population . |
| 419 | The biggest issue is the willingness of the elderly in taking up the help rendered by the government . |
| 420 | One of them is to increase public spending on the aged . |
| 421 | Educating the society on aging issue helps in the long run . |
| 422 | Therefore , public pensions and government incentives will be a vital source of money to support the elderly that are among those without savings . |
| 423 | So , I think with proper planning on the spending by the government , we should be able to meet the balance between public spending on the aged and other essential spending . |
| 424 | All in all , the result of retirement saving scheme is acceptable in the society as a whole and it is an undeniably necessary step we need to take to cope up with the burden of a speedily aging population . |
| 425 | Clearly , as a country 's aging population grows larger , the need for more spending on the aged will also grow . |
| 426 | Firstly , with a graying population , the government is expected to spend more public funds each year on areas like healthcare for the elderly and elderly friendly public facilities such as slopes in housing estates . |
| 427 | Furthermore , lengthening the working lifespan of our citizens might be another viable solution in dealing with an aging population . |
| 428 | The government has highlighted to the public the importance and benefits of financial planning for old age . |
| 429 | To tackle these issues commonly encountered by these elderly people , the government has put in considerable effort towards alleviating their problems . |
| 430 | As people are a country 's most precious resource , the government should help its people when they are suffering from ageing problems . |
| 431 | Hence , the elderly made significant contributions to the country , which provides a strong background for the government and society to provide for them . |
| 432 | Many countries have made individual retirement funds mandatory and hence successfully increased the number of individuals who are able to support themselves in their old age . |
| 433 | With longer life expectancy and declining birth rates , elderly dependency on the young should be shared with the government . |
| 434 | An increase of income can be used for financial aid for the elderly . |
| 435 | However with the help of the pension system , it has provided the elderly with a retirement fund , thus reducing the elder dependency on the children of the elderly . |
| 436 | Therefore , they will have more time and energy to care for the elderly . |
| 437 | The future is dependent on how well the government incorporates policies to support the aged . |
| 438 | The consequences resulting from an unlimited increase in public spending on the elderly will become a financial burden to a country in long run . |
| 439 | As people are living longer and healthier , there is an increased need to save up for future expenditures . |
| 440 | This policy aims to help the older worker to stay employed longer . |
| 441 | In fact , public funding for the welfare of the aged is still needed in some ways , but it is so crucial until it should comprise such a huge section of the government spending . |
| 442 | Although it has always been the case that an appropriate amount of public spending is set aside for the aged , it is of the utmost importance to instill a sense of self-reliance in them , which can be effective through education about saving for retirement throughout their working life . |
| 443 | All this contributes to making the aging process a more fruitful and meaningful one . |
| 444 | Higher income people tend to have more savings , and so they can enjoy a carefree retirement . |
| 445 | On top of that , working provides the elderly a source of income , enabling them to remain financially independent , hence reducing the financial dependency on the children . |
| 446 | This allows the workforce to start accumulating their wealth until the retirement age and at the same time , especially for the aged to remain productive through skill upgrading |
| 447 | If the government still does not intervene , the working-age population will come under more pressure as elderly persons are mostly taken care of by them . |
| 448 | The society today has widened their perspective in employing aged workers and hence encouraged them to continue working even when they reached their retirement age . |
| 449 | On top of that , the elderly who are disabled and suffering from chronic illnesses need a large sum of money to deal with their condition . |
| 450 | Furthermore , when the economy is developed , salaries of workers will increase such that they will have more savings when they retire . |
| 451 | A massive subsidy system is needed to sustain the hefty expenses of supporting an increasingly graying population . |
| 452 | It is a fact that if the elderly were employed , they would be able to support themselves with their savings . |
| 453 | The elderly should benefit from government , family and community care in all aspects to help them to ease their burden after what they have done for us over the years . |
| 454 | Furthermore , non-profit organizations dedicated to take care of the elderly are able to obtain donations easier as the members of the public are more able to contribute . |
| 455 | Employment policies in the form of encouraging the hiring or re-hiring of the elderly and in strengthening the workforce by bringing in more immigrants are ways to solve the problem of low productivity in the economy caused by the ageing process . |
| 456 | Furthermore , the elderly now have a long-term provision for their own lives by their income and contribute their ability to the society . |
| 457 | As they are part of the country 's population , there is a social responsibility to take care of the aged . |
| 458 | It is undeniable that by increasing the retirement age , the elderly will be able to accumulate wealth and eventually the strain on their finances will be ease . |
| 459 | Moreover , this group of elderly had worked hard for years when they were young and had contributed to the economy and society . |
| 460 | Meanwhile , the cost burden of providing for the elderly can be spread over a larger future generation . |
| 461 | By saving more on healthcare , the financial stress on the aged will be relieved . |
| 462 | Being the ones who have served the community for so many years , the elderly must be provided for . |
| 463 | Funds being used for the country 's development would benefit both the young and old . |
| 464 | The government created public awareness of early planning and proper saving strategies which are necessary to ensure that we have enough money to last us through our old-age after retirement . |
| 465 | However , many might argue that through employment , older workers will be able to earn their upkeep , save up for future medical needs and live an active and healthy lifestyle ( 2009 ) . |
| 466 | Policy to introduce retirement schemes is also believed to be one of the factors in easing the aging process . |
| 467 | All in all , it is important that the government addresses the needs and issues of the aging population . |
| 468 | Expenditure on the elderly is taking up more of the government budget due to the rapidly aging population . |
| 469 | These steps have increased the employment rate of older workers . |
| 470 | I believe that with better understanding , individuals with elderly parents will feel more obliged to spend time and money to provide better care and concern for them . |
| 471 | This way , the government reduces the financial dependency of the elderly by providing help based on their financial needs . |
| 472 | With elderly care hugely subsidized by the government , the aged will tend to be reliant on the government providing for their old age . |
| 473 | In my opinion , the limitation for public spending on the aged is a good issue for the entire population . |
| 474 | In conclusion , public spending on the elderly is necessar . however to a certain extent . |
| 475 | Therefore , public spending on the aged is as crucial as other areas of a country 's development . |
| 476 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be maximized in developed countries , while public spending in the developing countries should be utilized to help to reduce societal problems . |
| 477 | In conclusion , there should be a reasonable limit on the spendingpending for old people so that the governments can balance their expenses . |
| 478 | Companies , with increased cash grants from the government , can now afford to retrain and hire older workers . |
| 479 | It enforces working adults to save a portion of their monthly salary , so that they will have a sum of money upon retirement . Consequently , this will bring about less monetary problems when people are aged . |
| 480 | Thus , public funding is still necessary to help the elderly who are in financial need and also to promote social welfare services for them . |
| 481 | But we must not forget that these elderly who require aid from the government now are people who once contributed to the country 's development . |
| 482 | We can also achieve the goal of easing the aging process by encouraging advance savings and providing suitable jobs for the old . |
| 483 | This will help ease their cost of living as many of them could be unemployed and unable to cope with the higher cost of living . |
| 484 | The elderly in a country are usually supported by public spending . |
| 485 | The expenses for old people need to expand according to the living standard as well as the increasing expenditure in modern society . |
| 486 | Money is needed to encourage the elderly to work longer and pursue lifelong learning . |
| 487 | In a nutshell,late retirement and prolonged working lives are effective solutions to ease the problems of an aging population . |
| 488 | ( Inquirer , 2009 ) The elderly who are healthier and able to work longer can therefore increase their retirement savings by retiring later . |
| 489 | This would mean higher costs of living for the aged . |
| 490 | For example , with increased measures by the government fto put the elderly into the workforce , the elderly will be able to depend on themselves . |
| 491 | The problems include a need for more health care services , increase in elder dependency on the government and draining the country 's resources . |
| 492 | Such costs may even be higher than the original cost of public spending on the aged . |
| 493 | When individuals are still at the working age , they should provide in advance for their life after retirement . |
| 494 | Such various government polices provides the aged with economic solutions , social solutions , healthcare solutions to the problems that they may face hence easing the growing problems faced by an aging population . |
| 495 | However , priority should be given to the needy elderly , especially for older people with a lower education background and less savings . |
| 496 | Therefore , by succeeding in education and securing better jobs , the working adults will ease the burden of the government from having to invest a lot of money on the welfare of the elderly . |
| 497 | A prosperous economy would allow major public pension reforms while reducing the burden on the people . |
| 498 | Thus governments ' pension , subsidy and medical insurance perform a main role to help such old people . |
| 499 | The government needs to spend a reasonable amount of money on pensions and elderly facilities . |
| 500 | Since the aging process has given the country 's economy , |
| 501 | Economic growth is seen as the key to resolving issues relating to an aging population . |
| 502 | As such , they came up with initiatives like Skills Program for Upgrading and Resilience ( SPUR ) , for the elderly who wish to work longer . |
| 503 | The government should encourage the aged to extend their service to the workforce . |
| 504 | Hence , there is a need for the government to intervene by using part of the public funds to care for the aged population and ease the burden on the working population . |
| 505 | This ensures that the majority , if not all of the aged would be financially independent |
| 506 | This will truly benefit the aged who are completely dependent on pensions from governments . |
| 507 | ) . As the aging problem is likely to get worse in the future , public spending on the aged will constitute a large proportion of the national budget . |
| 508 | As for economic policies , having the CPF and raising the retirement age allows additional wealth accumulation . |
| 509 | Therefore , people will have saved enough money by the time when they are old to maintain a certain standard of living . |
| 510 | Furthermore , if too much public spending is allocated to help those over-reliant aged , there could be an overall adverse impact on outflows that could be put into better use in other development policies . |
| 511 | The elderly should be encouraged to work harder to support themselves in their old age . |
| 512 | It is undeniable that society is aging , and there will be increased needs for more healthcare , pensions , homes , and other social welfare considerations for the elderly . |
| 513 | Not only that , the government has also extended the retirement age of individuals . |
| 514 | Eventually every one of us will grow old , therefore the effectiveness of these policies greatly concerns us . We should support them . |
| 515 | By having sufficient replacement in the labor force , it will generate adequate taxes and economic returns for the government to provide public pensions and subsidized health programs for the aging population . |
| 516 | Firstly , we will be looking at the social policies that the government has introduced in order to encourage people to save for their old-age dependency . |
| 517 | In fact , working not only allows the elderly to spend their time meaningfully ; it can also help to increase their self-esteem and find their own identity in the society ( Adding Life to Years ! |
| 518 | 'Social pensions ' ensure income security in old age . |
| 519 | However , adjustments to the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) policies have reduced the burden of the country by providing some of the funds for the elderly in their golden years . |
| 520 | One of the concerns is that governments need to spend more on the elderly to ensure their physical living standard as well as their psychological well being . |
| 521 | People spend their whole life working and contributing to the future of their country , so after retirement , it is time for them to rest , and elderly care is somehow the requital for what they have done for the society . |
| 522 | It has been acknowledged that the aging population will require a large portion of a country 's budget to support various welfare programmes . |
| 523 | A lot of resources will also have to be spent on the elderly people . |
| 524 | These activities make the aging process more fulfilling and engaging . |
| 525 | As a result , these efforts to invest and develop the nation benefits future generations of all ages . |
| 526 | Another policy is to extend the retirement age to expand a nation 's workforce . |
| 527 | This limitation is based on the fact that enough public spending has been put in to guarantee the basic life standard for the elderly , such as age pension and health care . |
| 528 | Together with the government 's policies to improve financial independence of the elderly , their life will definitely be greatly enhanced by the new innovations . |
| 529 | Since they have an ensured amount for retirement , this would naturally ease the financial burden in their later years . |
| 530 | Good health and material needs being granted , the elderly population would be expected to be capable of being responsible for their own financial needs . |
| 531 | Charities such as the Community Chest can help to reach out to the elderly and hence lightening the financial load of the aged . |
| 532 | Hence , the welfare of the aged must be assured . |
| 533 | More money has to be diverted to healthcare , pensions and elderly-friendly infrastructure to cater to the needs of the aged . |
| 534 | Creating such awareness is crucial during this period as it prepares them mentally and financially to the challenges of aging . |
| 535 | At the same time , this allows the elderly to stay active for a longer period of time in the workforce . |
| 536 | In order to solve this problem , the government has implemented certain policies to aid the aged . Some of the policies are the introduction of the Central Provident Funds , tax reliefs and the Public Housing scheme . |
| 537 | However , there are situations where the aged can still support themselves and contribute to the country . |
| 538 | The increase ... the increase in the ratio will will without doubt relieve the government of financing the aged . |
| 539 | The elderly will be supported in their retirement by their working family members , and gaining help from government policies ( CPF savings , Medisave funds and Elderly bonuses ) . |
| 540 | Therefore , finally , governments may need to spend a large amount of money on creating incentives for companies to hire old people , namely : tax reduction , subsidy for each elder employed , etc . |
| 541 | To conclude , the role of government in providing assistance to the elderly , either to show its appreciation or simply to those who are in need , can not be denied . |
| 542 | People can also afford to look after their elderly . |
| 543 | As a result , the government has to provide funding for companies to encourage them to retain their elderly workers . |
| 544 | It is a challenge for the government to find the right portion of the spending that has to be allocated for the old age population in the country as it is one of the obligations and responsibilities a government has . |
| 545 | Even though the development of retirement housing is costly , it reaps profit for private developers and benefits the economy as the greying population fuel the market with their special needs and demands . |
| 546 | When enforced by law or encouraged to save and invest more of their income while still in the work force , people will then save a sufficient amount of money to take care of their health when necessary rather than depend on government spending to support their health in their old age . |
| 547 | All these policies aim to lessen the financial burden on the elderly to provide them with security in their sunset years . |
| 548 | This sum of money will serve as a source of income when one can not work in the future due to old age . |
| 549 | For example , when the government announces measures to encourage later retirements , the citizens would be prepared for what is to come and be more ready to accept it , thus reducing elder dependency in the long term . |
| 550 | Allowing the older generation to stay longer in the workforce not only promotes economic growth of the country , but also keeps them physically active , mentally alert , resilient and socially connected to the society . |
| 551 | For example , the government encourages old people to continue to work , and the government encourages people to save for their old-age , and encourages young people to produce more and so on . |
| 552 | Public spending is also stressed to provide pensions , building infrastructure and healthcare catered for the elderly . |
| 553 | This underlines the importance of economic development in the country to neutralize the implications of an aging population . |
| 554 | Life-long employability would be one possible answer to this problem , as the elderly can be less dependent on state funding and , at the same time , contribute back to the growth of the country . |
| 555 | Thus , policies such as the employment policies , the social security savings plan and health care and community development , have helped to ease the ageing process by allowing the elderly to enjoy a more vibrant and active life in both social and economical aspects . |
| 556 | Since a large amount of money is needed to support an ageing population , governments have to increase their own existing pool of resources in order to generate such amount of capital . |
| 557 | Diverting money into this area must be very helpful to all people , including the elderly . |
| 558 | In short , government expenditure should be spent on the welfare of elderly , especially those who are in need . |
| 559 | As people work longer , the amount of wealth generated would be greater . |
| 560 | There is a need for governments to focus on these problems , in order to improve the welfare of the aged . |
| 561 | With these in place , the aged will be well taken care of and given a peace of mind in monetary ; and they could live in a more comfortable environment during old age . |
| 562 | The burden of the government will increase as the richer old people |
| 563 | Public spending should be used to provide more options and protection for the elderly . |
| 564 | There is a large proportion of public spending on the aged in the national budget due to a fast aging population . |
| 565 | Therefore , solving this problem means the elderly will be taken care of by the government , even though it is an indirect way . |
| 566 | This eases the burden of the old as they are ensured they receive money every month . |
| 567 | Elderly dependency can be reduced when they are forced or encouraged to plan and provide in advance for their own old-age livelihood . |
| 568 | These strategies ' point is that if people are given more opportunities to work , they may be able to save enough money for their retirement . |
| 569 | It is undeniable that the elderly have made immense contributions to the country and their sacrifices create the relative social and economic comfort we enjoy now . |
| 570 | As such , government can be more lenient to these groups of elders by providing financial care and giving them public pension benefits whenever possible . |
| 571 | Still , we should not forget to leave some for the aged as they have contributed in many ways to the country . |
| 572 | in additionl , a pool of reserve funds should be available to cope with the rise in aging population as well . |
| 573 | Moreover , the aged may become over dependent on the government for subsidies . |
| 574 | In such situations , the government has to play a part to provide for and protect the aged . |
| 575 | Moreover , extended working years should be encouraged as a result of longer lifespan and increased literacy of future elderly . |
| 576 | This means both the younger and older generations will be able to better plan for their old age and the problems that come with it , for example , deteriorating health . |
| 577 | By providing limitless welfare to the aged would generally improve the living conditions of some of the less fortunate but that might potentially give room to 'free-riders ' who would exploit the welfare system . |
| 578 | , the government should encourage older population to live an active aging life . |
| 579 | In short , a better suggestion will be for countries to place more emphasis on its economical development , as with economic growth , people are generally more affluent and hence will possess the financial capabilities of providing for themselves in old age . |
| 580 | This is because the elderly have not only contributed significantly to the society , but in fact have many important roles to play . |
| 581 | Therefore , if more funds are diverted to it instead of to the elderly , there is no doubt that the country will experience tremendous economic growth and be prosperous . |
| 582 | However , not only the aged , but who are dependent on the government 's help should also have the right to live with dignity . |
| 583 | This will then aid the retirement process . |
| 584 | The government has a duty to take care of the aging population . |
| 585 | Firstly , they can accumulate more wealth through their work , of which they can then use it to support themselves in their old age . |
| 586 | For this reason , the government has been placing much emphasis on spending the budget for the aged . |
| 587 | Therefore , recently adjustments have been made to the policies to ensure that the retirees ' saving can last them through their life . |
| 588 | It is much better to have a suitable and balanced money distribution of public investment between elderly care and other aspects . |
| 589 | In conclusion , public spending for the aged is a necessity but should be regulated . |
| 590 | The elderly have contributed a lot to society |
| 591 | Besides , promoting life-long learning has played a significant role in helping to ease the aging process . |
| 592 | In the near future , the tax burden on each working adult will increase due to the aging population . |
| 593 | Encouraging the later retirement and giving out subsidies based on the financial need are efficient ways to reduce the amount of money spent on the growing population of the aged . |
| 594 | In fact , there should be an increase in such spending as the aging trend is set to increase in the future . |
| 595 | In recent years , the government has been promoting elder employment and raising the eligible age for employment . |
| 596 | Leaving this issue unchecked means risking the welfare of the elderly , who have given years of their working life to the country . |
| 597 | Besides that , the burden to take care of the graying generation will also be shared by the children of the elderly people , who may be highly educated and therefore are able to find jobs easily to support their families . |
| 598 | Healthier elderly are able to return to the workforce and contribute to the country 's development . |
| 599 | Although the current social policies can help to build up the financial capability of the aging population and make their aging process easier , there remains an unprotected group . |
| 600 | Hence , elder dependency could be reduced when the elder can support themselves for their own daily expense . |
| 601 | It may be argued that having older employees will also mean higher costs in term of healthcare benefits and insurance . |
| 602 | With higher standards of living as compared to past conditions , people are living longer today . |
| 603 | Therefore , we are provided with more choices to care for the elder people . |
| 604 | One of the most direct ways of dealing with the problems is to divert more government spending to the aged . |
| 605 | Governments have been spending too much money on the subsidies to help the aging population . |
| 606 | People would argue that more money should be spent by the government on the elderly , given that the elderly are the more disadvantaged group of the society . |
| 607 | There should be a sum of money which is set aside for the welfare of the aged . |
| 608 | As the population aged , it is the responsibility of the government to take care of its people . |
| 609 | However , the government not only has to deal with reducing ageing population , but also to attend to the needs of the aged . |
| 610 | Thus , with the living standard of the elderly guaranteed , the social problems can also be avoided in a country . |
| 611 | These sectors are as important as , if not more important than , spending on an aging population . |
| 612 | On the other side of the coin , if the needs of the elderly are well taken care off , they will still be capable of contributing to society . |
| 613 | The elderly would feel more at ease knowing that help is forthcoming for them in their twilight years . |
| 614 | Fiscal cost that was previously used to distribute pension benefits to retirees could now be diverted to funding retraining programmes and monetary incentives to companies to hire and retrain older workers , thus further boosting the economy . |
| 615 | The elderly can be at ease knowing that they are able to be more financially capable at an older age . |
| 616 | ( Ministry of Manpower , 2006 ) . These will help to lower the barriers to elder employment , enabling them to work longer and accumulate more wealth for their retirement |
| 617 | One of the productive areas to invest in is economy [ 1 ] since economic development helps to raise the national budgets and thus raise the public expenditures on the elderly . |
| 618 | At the same time , the aged will feel more valued by the nation when they are being cared for . |
| 619 | Indeed , the aged were once the main human resource that contributed greatly to the development of the country and thus deserve the welfare of getting public spending , as a token of gratitude . |
| 620 | One way to retain these foreigners is to improve the welfare system for the aged . |
| 621 | This will then ensure financial protection for the elderly when they reach the age ( Prime Minister 's Office , 2009 ) . |
| 622 | In this way , it indirectly reduces the problem of having to set aside a big amount of money to aid healthcare services for the elderly . |
| 623 | Lastly , the potential contributions of the elders would be valuable for the current generation . |
| 624 | One of the difficulties is the increase in life expectancy , the result of considerable improvement to life 's quality , leads to the growing burden in developed countries over the years . |
| 625 | More funds are required to encourage later retirement . |
| 626 | This will lead to an increase in burden for the elderly . |
| 627 | Hence , it encourages them to work harder and save more in order to be better prepared for old age . |
| 628 | They tend to support this argument by considering the contributions made by the aged during their hey-days and the level of their dependency in this season of their lives . |
| 629 | Nonetheless , the government should fund the age with a perimeter in mind for such heavy subsidies comes with heavy tax levies citizens and investors . |
| 630 | The Government can offer many public pensions and financial help to the needy elders , but when will this end ? |
| 631 | The retirement savings are important to plan in advance for the benefits of the elderly and they are encouraged to save for the retirement savings , medical savings and expenses . |
| 632 | By doing this correctly , we will be able to develop our countries in many aspects , including the aging issue . |
| 633 | This would pave the way for a more meaningful future for the subsequent ageing generation . |
| 634 | By working longer , baby boomers could accumulate savings for retirement and share their and experience with the society . |
| 635 | Although such thoughts may arise , there are no better ways to guarantee a better life for the aged . |
| 636 | Minister for Pensions and the Ageing Society Angela Eagle said that this new policy will help old people to save enough money for their retirement ( author , year ) . |
| 637 | Allowing later retirement will allow wealth accumulation . |
| 638 | The income that our country has earned is then being spent on the welfare of the elderly . |
| 639 | There are still activities carried out to help the elderly such as providing free travel on public transportation in cities or subsidizing old people 's homes , etc . |
| 640 | Providing assistance for the elderly is essentially part of social responsibility . |
| 641 | As a result , there is a need for the government to spend more on elderly healthcare and rehabilitation centres . |
| 642 | In this way , these working-age adults will form the community where money can be tapped to provide funds for the aged in future . |
| 643 | By becoming more affordable , it helps to ease the financial burden of the patient and his or her family . |
| 644 | Thus , policy makers have the responsibility to provide the elderly with . |
| 645 | Without the past contributions from these elderly workers , these companies might not be able to be where they are today . |
| 646 | The cost might even exceed the amount spent treating the elderly . |
| 647 | In addition , governments will be able to ensure the continuation of welfare programmes for the elderly . |
| 648 | Being financially responsible , the elderly should save up as much money as possible while they are young so that they can pay for their daily expenses . |
| 649 | It 's inevitable there will still be a group of aged people who can not take care of their own welfare . It 's the responsibility of a caring government to take care of their needs . |
| 650 | Policy makers are faced with the challenges such as how changes in the ratio of working-age citizens to retirees affect the ability of the public to fund for the aged ? |
| 651 | It is no doubt that a country should do its best to assist and support the elderly . |
| 652 | To conclude , these are the probable factors that may arise if public spending on the aged is implemented . |
| 653 | For the young people themselves , they should work hard for their old-age and save to prepare for the old-age . |
| 654 | This proves that the governments ' strategies to promote the hiring of older workers into the workforce have been effective . |
| 655 | Despite his old age , he still contributes to society by making major decisions for the country . |
| 656 | The elderly were once hard working not only in raising their children but also in devoting their strength and intelligence for a better society like the one we have today . |
| 657 | If the government keeps giving the elderly money without any limit , there 's a possibility that the elderly would stop to work and depend on the government for living . |
| 658 | In addition , encouraging later retirement has proved to ease the ageing process . |
| 659 | Public spending on the aged is the expenditure by the government covering health , infrastructure and projects aimed at improving the lives of the elderly . |
| 660 | However , some developed countries have high healthcare costs and thus aging may still impose an economic burden . |
| 661 | These measures help to reduce expensive medical fees for the aged as well as catering to the needs of the elderly . |
| 662 | However , with the creation of new policies such as tax rebates , it will attract employers to hire older workers . |
| 663 | In addition , it promotes the concept of active lifestyle for the elderly by involving them in the workforce . |
| 664 | In this way , they can then work to occupy themselves and age with ease that they can at least contribute to the economy . |
| 665 | Despite the above two reasons , some people still argue that the public should help the elderly as much as possible since they have once contributed to the society . |
| 666 | Money for the aged can be saved as people should take care of their own parents when they become old . |
| 667 | The government has implemented lifelong financial policy like the Central Provident Fund to prepare her people in planning and saving ahead for the ageing crisis . |
| 668 | After all , the elderly toiled hard when they were young and contributed significantly to the economic development of their country . |
| 669 | One of the examples is the government plan to extend the working lifespan of the elderly . |
| 670 | As such , the government has to put more emphasis and effort in imparting financial education and providing money advice and information to help the elderly to better finance their savings and incomes . |
| 671 | Moreover , lifelong learning empowers the elderly to lead a better lifestyle through social interaction and contribution to the community . |
| 672 | Therefore , it is reasonable for the government to spend on the aged as an act of repaying the elderly . |
| 673 | In essence , public spending on aged is rationalized and valid as the aged remain to be a valuable asset in the country . |
| 674 | The reason why the Americans classify " oldness " to be above 65 years old is due to the fact that they strongly believe that they still can contribute to society after retirement and thus they continue to embark on meaningful roles . |
| 675 | In addition , encourages the oldsters to be more active and to contribute to the society . |
| 676 | Lastly , more should be done to increase the labour participation rate of the aged in the workforce . |
| 677 | In this case , countries should invest more on the economy development or other areas to increase the financial ability so that old people can benefit more from the economic growth . |
| 678 | One of the economic policies introduced is encouraging longer working lives . |
| 679 | Furthermore , there should be a maximum cap to the increment on retirement age as we also need to consider the physical capabilities of the elderly . |
| 680 | However , who can deny that our older generations have contributed immensely to our society ? |
| 681 | In order to help the population to be independent and to save for old age , the government established the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) Board . |
| 682 | Firstly , elderly dependency should be reduced by encouraging the elderly to retire later , and by lowering barriers to elder employment . |
| 683 | The elderly will face more specific needs such as the needs for social and healthcare support . |
| 684 | The general perception is that over spending of public funds on the aged would lead to over-dependency on the government . |
| 685 | " The best way for people to adjust to longer life spans is to continue working for as long as they can " ( PM Lee , 2009 ) , as working provides a source of income ; more savings can thus be built up . |
| 686 | In order to make the most of the limited budget for the aging population , the government should concentrate on supporting people who really need aid such as older single women . |
| 687 | Hence , I believe that the government should spend more money to subsidize talks for the elderly . |
| 688 | As a result , " the cost burden can be spread over a larger and more affluent future generation " . |
| 689 | People are more educated and can work longer to support themselves today . |
| 690 | The correlation between economic growth and spending on the aged must be understood . |
| 691 | It goes on to reinstate the elder do count more on the state ; subsequently , more resources must be diverted into caring for them . |
| 692 | Thus , economic development is a critical indicator of our capability to deal with the aging problem in the future . |
| 693 | Elderly has contributed themselves to the society in the past few decades . |
| 694 | It is the social responsibility of the public to provide for them in order to express their gratitude for the years that they have contributed to the society . |
| 695 | This drastic change enables the aged people to keep up with the development of the society . |
| 696 | In a nutshell , public spending should be wisely used to provide aids to the elderly . |
| 697 | ( Ministry of Manpower , 2006 ) By increasing the retirement age , it creates a motivating effect on people to work till at later age , so as to enjoy benefits like pensions and government incentives after retirement . |
| 698 | Once the countries are strong enough , certainly the elderly will benefit . |
| 699 | The policy of later retirement not only solves the problem of elderly dependency immediately , it also eases the ageing process in Singapore as the elderly no longer face financial constraints once they earn an income every month . |
| 700 | As each year passes , there seems to be an increase on public spending for the aged . |
| 701 | It is only right for us to take care of the aged as they contributed a great deal to what we have now . |
| 702 | In addition , the government is trying to encourage companies to hire older workers by giving incentives . |
| 703 | While this may be true , it is essential to remember that these retirement funds are meant to last the elderly till the end of their lives . |
| 704 | Therefore , people will have pressure when they plan for their old age . |
| 705 | Hence , this implies that public spending on the elderly will have to increase simultaneously as well . |
| 706 | On the contrary , the elderly need the government to support them and the government should do so . |
| 707 | In future years , the economic burden will be increased tremendously due to the aging labour force . |
| 708 | Although it might seem like they are reaping the rewards of the current workforce , the workforce should never forget who brought them so far . |
| 709 | While this may be true , facts have shown that the aged can still contribute to the economy as they have more experiences when compared to the others . |
| 710 | Government has placed policies that emphasise individual responsibility and which have been proven effective to ease the aging process . |
| 711 | To begin with , public spending on the aged population has become a burden to the tax payers . |
| 712 | The government also has encouraged and provided incentives for companies to employ elderly workers . |
| 713 | Without the hard work of the older generation , we would not have the fundamentals of our society . |
| 714 | As a result , governments and policy makers around the world are ready to set aside a larger portion of their countries ' budget to cater for age-related spending , with healthcare for the elderly as most of their top priorities . |
| 715 | Not only that , longer working lives enable the elders to remain physically , mentally and socially active for a long time . |
| 716 | can be more assured of the of the elderly |
| 717 | The facilities built for the elderly should not be seen negatively because these facilities provide long-term benefits to every individual in the country , since ageing is an unavoidable process . |
| 718 | Therefore , there is still a need to set aside some funds for the elderly . |
| 719 | The elderly made a commendable contribution to the society when they were younger and active in the workforce . |
| 720 | Changes should be made to the current financial , health care and employment policies for the aged so that they can better help the elderly . |
| 721 | Once the elderly become more competitive in employment , it is easier for them to choose late retirement . |
| 722 | It would not only help the government to reduce the amount of money they have to spend on the welfare program for the elderly , but also provide the elderly with a chance to have a rich old-life . |
| 723 | This ensures that by the time we retire , there will be sufficient savings left to spend for our old age . |
| 724 | The " Age-friendly " policy of setting wages and employment practices has ensured that the employers have strong incentives to hire and retain old workers . |
| 725 | Therefore it is necessary that the government highlight the availability and benefits of their financial policies and equip the aged with basic financial education to increase the effectiveness of these policies . |
| 726 | They may have doubts whether the fund is enough to enable a high percentage of elderly to work longer or can the companies cope with re-employment of older workers ? |
| 727 | This social policy has helped many to remain self-sufficient in their elderly years . |
| 728 | Hence , this is where the role of public spending should come iin to play to address the needs of the aged . |
| 729 | Moreover , old people may not be strong enough to withstand the stress at work and the cost for healthcare and insurance for old working people will surpass the profit , which all companies try to earn as much as they can . |
| 730 | Therefore , it is possible that productivity can still be sustain among the aging population . |
| 731 | One and a half decades ago , many countries had to support the aging population through ways like subsidies and public spending on health care services and facilities . |
| 732 | Furthermore , the growing public spending for the aged has further taken its toil on the slow recovery of the US economy as it continues to grow the budget deficit . |
| 733 | Public spending on the aged and effects on the national budget has been identified as one of the pressing issues pertaining to an ageing population . |
| 734 | The government has implemented policies to help citizens prepare for their retired life . |
| 735 | This certainly seems to be more important than pouring money into public spending for the elderly . |
| 736 | In short , I think not only the government , but also the family have the responsibility to take care of the old people and so public budget could be spent on many different areas to develop country . |
| 737 | It should be at the maximum limit where the government can still withstand so as to help as many elderly as possible . |
| 738 | This may be implemented by giving tax rebates or financial incentives to companies which are proactive in the employment of older workers . |
| 739 | However , most of all , it helps create more awareness which can play a major role such as making a more informed family planning or how much money to be put aside for a better retirement ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 740 | Over the past years , the Government has begun to emphasize the employment of senior workers and to keep them in the workforce . |
| 741 | I concur with the writer 's view on reducing elder dependency by encouraging later retirement , longer working lives , and lower barriers to elder employment . |
| 742 | The government has a responsibility to help and guide the public to plan their retirement life . |
| 743 | Senior workers , with their rich working experience may be able to contribute greatly to the organisation and are encouraged to be re-hired . |
| 744 | Clearly , the consequences of cutting expenditure on the aged outweigh the alternative in many aspects . |
| 745 | Lastly , lowering barriers to elder employment can also reduce the need for elder dependency . |
| 746 | Thus , it is justifiable that the society should give in return and support the old members of the workforce , on the account of their past contributions to the nation . |
| 747 | This will enable them to enter the workforce again and increase their retirement age . |
| 748 | Issues such as the reluctance of companies to hire older workers are ameliorated due to the ADVANTAGE scheme whereby subsides encourage them to re-employ the aged . |
| 749 | Public spending should be emphasised , especially in countries with a large proportion of elderly . |
| 750 | In evaluating the policies to undertake , it is necessary to consider the net impact of using public funds to deal with the aging population , as well as the consequences if the issues relating to aging population are not adequately dealt with . |
| 751 | However , old people can still contribute a lot . |
| 752 | In such a case , these savings can then be used appropriately , especially after retirement . |
| 753 | We need to have the responsibility to care for the elderly . |
| 754 | The younger generation should be grateful to their senior citizen 's contribution because the prosperity of today 's country is built by the older generation when they are young . |
| 755 | Secondly , I hold the view that if all the other areas of the country are developed adequately , the living standard of the aging population will increase then . |
| 756 | Besides that , the elderly were once the people who contributed to the growth of the nation and economy . |
| 757 | This would imply that lots of public funds would be required to build an environment with suitable facilities for the elderly . |
| 758 | For instance , hiring the elderly as part-time workers may be a good choice for both the aged and employers so as to enable the elderly to earn more as well as to enhance productivity . |
| 759 | So , to ease the aging problem , economic growth should be accentuated . |
| 760 | Alternatively , by requiring people to provide in advance for their own old-age dependency , governments can also solve this problem without slowing down economic growth . |
| 761 | Therefore to ease the burden on the younger generation who has to support the post baby boomers as they approach their retirement years , it would be a win-win situation if we integrate senior citizens back into the work force . |
| 762 | With much said , it is still important to provide the basic healthcare benefit to the elderly . |
| 763 | With more people receiving education , they will understand the importance of planning for their future and developing the culture of taking care of themselves and their elderly . |
| 764 | However , there is of course a need to have a certain amount of spending on the elderly . |
| 765 | The products of the investment could then be used as public spending for the aged . |
| 766 | Many countries have allocated part of the country 's annual budget to helping the older generation . |
| 767 | Karen Holden ( 2003 ) suggests that as people work longer , it can help to reduce the likelihood of the elderly falling into poverty when they reach a certain age . |
| 768 | Secondly , public spending on the aged can be diverted to increase salaries and bonuses of people who are more hardworking and productive so that it will help to generate a more productive workforce . |
| 769 | As such , the public spending on building new infrastructure for the aging population should be encouraged so as to prepare countries for their aging population and ease their aging process . |
| 770 | Therefore , the government should give money to needy people especially elderly in order to undergo treatments . |
| 771 | Many countries like US have set aside a large sum of money to ensure the welfare of elderly people annually . |
| 772 | A substantial amount is spent on the elderly annually , and this sum of money can be put to other uses . |
| 773 | It not only enhances personal development for the elderly , but also equips them with knowledge to compete in employment . |
| 774 | The government introduced a scheme that allows people to provide in advance for their old age dependency . |
| 775 | This is to ensure that individuals will be able to take care of themselves when they grow old . |
| 776 | However , better healthcare and protection from the government result in rising age expectancy , which is a double-edged sword because on one hand , people live longer as shown in the report ( Friedland and Summer , 2005 , Fig 1-2 ) and on the other hand , the proportion of aging population increases if the younger generation are not reproducing enough , This is the trend today in developed nations . |
| 777 | Hence , implementing a mandatory savings scheme is essential to its contributors , their families and the government . |
| 778 | By investing in other areas , we can empower these three groups of people : employers , families and the elderly . |
| 779 | And this means spending on the elderly is required . |
| 780 | And as far as these developments and policies are concerned , ageing workforce and the cost for elderly healthcare are important factors that the government has to look into . |
| 781 | The recent ElderShield policy together with previous policies such as the comprehensive social security saving scheme , Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , provides a basis of financial support for the aged . |
| 782 | Definitely , there will be an increase in public spending on the aged . |
| 783 | With the current policies such as upgrading of their residences ' facilities and longer working lives , the aging process has been eased to a large extent . |
| 784 | The benefits of economic growth is not only current , it is for the long term as well . . |
| 785 | In this way , public spending on the elderly should be balanced with other sectors . |
| 786 | A greater portion of the national budget may later be allocated to the incentives for the old . |
| 787 | This greatly encourages independence among the elderly in the future , as well as personal responsibility . |
| 788 | Alternatively , there should be some adjustments on fiscal spending on the aged based on their percentage in the country 's population . |
| 789 | Firstly , governments have to continue to raise the retirement age in line with rising life expectancies . |
| 790 | By lowering the barriers and making it easier for the elderly to be employed , more elderly people would have jobs and would be able to generate income for the country . |
| 791 | However , countries have to be mindful on the amount of money that has to be spent on the social protection and health for the elderly . |
| 792 | The aged deserves to receive the best welfare given by the country . |
| 793 | In return , the government should take care of our elders as a means of gratification . |
| 794 | In addition , the elderly often incur higher costs in terms of healthcare and other miscellaneous needs . |
| 795 | However , despite having these accounts , senior citizens may still face problems with paying their medical bills and daily expenses as these accounts are subjected to withdrawal limitations and high eligibility age barriers . |
| 796 | It is the responsibility of the younger population and the government to support the aged . |
| 797 | Moreover , many have expressed their desire to work longer as they want to feel valued and being able to contribute to the society . |
| 798 | For it must be kept in mind that these immigrants will also grow old and require pensions some day . |
| 799 | Public pension , healthcare and all the services for the elderly symbolise our debt of gratitude to what they have done for us . |
| 800 | " The elderly , in their younger days , have made many important contributions to society . |
| 801 | This help to ensure that majority will age with security . |
| 802 | Elder people tend to be the primary beneficiaries from the public spending . |
| 803 | While elder care will inevitably account for a large portion of expenditure , the consequence of this improper budget is the financial burden of raising funds , which will result in a full load of debts and raising taxes . |
| 804 | It is inevitable that public spending will significantly increase with the aging population . |
| 805 | Spending on the aged should also be contextualized accordingly in economic situations , such as the recent economic crisis where employers are extremely selective , making jobs all the more scarce for the elderly . |
| 806 | In contrast , when focusing on country development , particularly economic growth , the country can earn more money . |
| 807 | " It is an affordable severe disability insurance scheme which provides basic financial protection to those who need long term care , especially in old age . |
| 808 | It reminds people that they have to play a fair part in taking care of their own health and wealth management is necessary to ensure financial security in the long run . |
| 809 | Therefore the retirement age should be pushed back and elderly should be encouraged to upgrade their skills and continue working as they are a country 's invaluable resource with a lot of experience . |
| 810 | For example , public spending for an old lady suffering from a disease should be given more funds than an old man without any income or family . |
| 811 | Ageing process may mean working longer . |
| 812 | It is the old who have contributed to our society a lot . |
| 813 | This has caused the aged to be heavily dependent on the government and thus has developed a negative practice of the aged not saving for their own retirement . |
| 814 | Although they already reach the retirement age , they still decide to continue working so they will be able to support themselves in their twilight years . |
| 815 | Money that can be otherwise spent on the country 's developments has to be used in settling the problem of the greying population . |
| 816 | This shows that more attention is required for the aging population to prepare it to embrace these elderly in the near future . |
| 817 | Taking care of the aged forms a part of the nation 's welfare expenditure . |
| 818 | " ElderShield is an affordable severe disability insurance scheme which provides basic financial protection to those who needs long-term care , especially during old age |
| 819 | In summary , Social policies such as increasing the retirement age might result in lesser dependency on the younger generation while lowering the barrier of employable immigrants will decrease the median age of the population and lastly , the introduction of a retirement scheme can allow people to save for their retirement . |
| 820 | The different policies include financial aspects like the reinforcement of individual savings through the mandatory Central Provident Fund which helps the population save for old age ( Central Provident Fund Board , 2009 ) . |
| 821 | The reason is that the more the living standard is developed , the more the life is lengthened . |
| 822 | The aged have dedicated so much to the development of a country and they should be thanked . |
| 823 | The best way to be all right in old age is to have enough savings by working longer ( PM Lee Hsien Loong , 2009 ) . |
| 824 | In cases where the elderly are childless or physically ill due to aging , it will be the government 's duty to take care of them . |
| 825 | More elderly are now able to participate in the workforce actively . |
| 826 | The Government believes that with later retirement , seniors will be able to support themselves independently and to allow seniors to remain physically , mentally and socially active for as long as possible . |
| 827 | Financial aids can be made available to these families and help relieve the financial stress . |
| 828 | In conclusion , the government has shown much concern to the elderly by investing a lot of money in their cause . |
| 829 | Last but not least , health benefits for elderly should be protected . |
| 830 | The scheme , introduced last year , is a key piece in a comprehensive plan to tackle the problem of an aging population , as people 's retirement savings are not keeping pace with longer life spans . |
| 831 | Therefore , it enables the elderly to make use of the skills learnt to join the workforce , enabling them to increase their esteem level . |
| 832 | Advocate of government policies often argue that many countries have provided financial security and support for the aged through policies such as social pension and compulsory savings ( Wesumperuma , 2009 ) . |
| 833 | To conclude , I feel that public spending on the aged is very important . |
| 834 | They should learn to save more and plan for their old age in advance for |
| 835 | Secondly , governments in affected countries have introduced incentives to encourage companies to hire and retrain older workers , thus boosting the workforce and easing the aging process . |
| 836 | Thus , to counter these problems there is also the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) which consists of compulsory medical savings in Medisave , health insurance in MediShield and government aid in Medifund to make the people save for their own retirement . |
| 837 | This scheme allows the oldsters to be more independent as they have their own savings , particularly savings for their medical bills , and helps in reducing the national budget on healthcare . |
| 838 | There is a need to equip the elderly with the proper finance management to make the financial policies effective . |
| 839 | This has has allowed the aged to remain healthy , continue working and remain productive despite their age . |
| 840 | By allowing the public to provide for the aged , the children tend to push their responsibility to the public . |
| 841 | In fact , stipulating higher retirement age can have an adverse effect . |
| 842 | Secondly , getting more salary through longer working hours makes life much easier than appealing for limited economic aids by having many children . |
| 843 | Public spending should be controlled to establish a balanced outcome for both the young and the aged . |
| 844 | Hence , once people retire , they would be able to draw on this savings and hence are ensured that they will have a form of stable income even when they are unemployed . |
| 845 | It is true that the aged are able to support themselves by being financially independent . |
| 846 | Should public spending on the aged make way for the country 's development on all other areas ? |
| 847 | The citizens should also be encouraged to have a healthy lifestyle to prevent any possible illnesses to ensure a smooth retirement with more money spent on other areas other than healthcare . |
| 848 | Raising and increasing productive children not only can , attract foreign investors to invest in a country with pool of talents and the burden of looking after the aged population is being spread out with prosperous further generations . |
| 849 | Then when they are old they can receive corresponding care and living expenses . |
| 850 | The mindset of respecting those who built the country from scratch resonates with feeling indebted to take care of them when they are old and providing them with the best of health-care . |
| 851 | The aged in these nations , especially in rural areas , do not merely need money to lead the rest of their lives , but also need money raise their children or grandchildren . |
| 852 | However , this may result in the elderly being over dependent on the government . |
| 853 | Another outcome of higher education standards is that both the younger and older generations will better understand what could happen to them when they grow old . |
| 854 | ( Loh , 2007 ) . At the same time , the government also provides grants to support SMEs to recruit , retrain and retain their workers , especially the older workers , to ensure productivity . |
| 855 | Instead of being granted with a lump sum of money upon retirement , this ensures that the elderly do not exhaust their retirement funds too quickly , thereby easing reliance on public funds . |
| 856 | There would be an increase in demand for healthcare , pensions and elderly-friendly facilities such as ramps and railings . |
| 857 | The aged are citizens of the country and they deserve the necessary welfare rights . |
| 858 | Thus , public spending in these three important aspects of finance , healthcare and employment would be beneficial to everyone . |
| 859 | In most countries , the government funds the elderly population . |
| 860 | Keeping the aged in mind , we must never neglect the future generations since they will be the ones who will support the nation . |
| 861 | The aged should continue to work beyond their retirement age when they are still capable of supporting themselves . |
| 862 | This scheme encourages the elderly to work even though their pay is low . |
| 863 | Therefore , such unfavourable trends continue to place the elderly in need of public support for their health care . |
| 864 | The state has a certain responsibility to provide for the old . |
| 865 | All these schemes ensure adults have at least a source of cash income available to them during old age . |
| 866 | By requiring citizens to provide in advance for their own old-age dependency , policy makers were able to ease the above mentioned situation . |
| 867 | In order for those elderly to live reasonably well , but not to the extent of " luxuriously well " , government should assess the living condition of these elderly and provide them with the necessary aid they need . |
| 868 | These elderly were once the people who helped in building up the nation and the government should show their compassion and care for this vulnerable group by not restricting public spending on them . |
| 869 | Services for the aged will become more expensive . |
| 870 | Money should be allocated for the ageing population . |
| 871 | This is why the topic issue is raised , as a result of not forgetting the elderly who contributed much to all the improvements in their younger ages . |
| 872 | Public spending are funds that are used on the society and the aged certainly has a share of it as well . |
| 873 | It seems inevitable that we must spend more on the aged . |
| 874 | In fact , it calls into the question whether the elderly really benefit from the policy implemented in the aspect of financial security , employment and living arrangements . |
| 875 | The aged have work very hard to develop our country in every way and they deserve a good rest for the rest of their lives . |
| 876 | People can live longer , but it costs more . |
| 877 | In addition , they should also consider the contributions that the elderly could give and had given to the country . |
| 878 | In the long run , it will not only benefit the current population but also the future one . |
| 879 | Educating the mass on the essential of financial stability in the far future is one of the solutions for cultivating a habit of saving among the mass . |
| 880 | It is still part of the country 's social responsibility to take care of the aged population . |
| 881 | In view of the graying population , government expenditure on the aged is inevitable . |
| 882 | However , these are long term investments and the advantages will surface as time goes by . |
| 883 | Firstly , the elderly are encouraged to work for longer periods |
| 884 | To tackle this issue , the government has introduced policies like the CPF which consists of the Ordinary Account , Special Account and the 3Ms , which include Medisave , MediShield and Medifund Account , to prepare the citizens for their retirement . |
| 885 | In recent years , awareness on the extension of employment years has also been promoted . |
| 886 | There are clearly many areas that the government has to spend on annually , and the graying population is one of it . |
| 887 | Extended lifespans have the elderly to work more and longer . |
| 888 | Public funding is necessary to support the low income group of elderly and to provide necessary social services . |
| 889 | To help support the employers , the government provides grants and subsidies to the employers who employ the older workers . |
| 890 | However , although these job fairs provide more working opportunities for the elderly , the success of such job fairs is largely dependent on the receptiveness of the elderly 's expectations of the scope of the new job . |
| 891 | In a way its a form of 'paying back ' by the government for their contributions to the country 's development over the past few decades . |
| 892 | Also , they lower barriers to elder employment . |
| 893 | First , it is a social obligation to provide for the seniors . |
| 894 | The longer the duration of development , the greater will be the influence of the political , economic , and social situation on it . |
| 895 | Therefore , the government 's financial support should depend on people 's financial and healthy state . |
| 896 | The elderly used to work and devote their talents and efforts to the development of the country . |
| 897 | The Full Retirement Age is Increasing . |
| 898 | This enables the elderly to live independently while being assured of help if needed . |
| 899 | If people can retire at a later time , the company can keep a balance of the work force . |
| 900 | Undoubtedly , more public spending should be channeled to deal with the issues piggybacked along with a graying population . |
| 901 | This wage structure ensures employability and job security for the elderly workers and it prevents them from feeling detached from the society ( National University of Singapore , 2009 ) . |
| 902 | An additional gain is that family members would be considerate and would save money for the carrier 's medical expenses in future . |
| 903 | Even after they have retired , they continue to contribute to the society , but in different ways , such as taking care of their grandchildren on behalf of their children who are at work . |
| 904 | However , this portion of people is generally small and furthermore , by providing pensions and healthcare benefits , it gives the aged a sense of security and they are hence better taken care of . |
| 905 | One aspect is that of favouring the elderly to the extent of fulfilling their needs to the best the state can provide because of their esteemed position as 'forefathers ' of the country . |
| 906 | Social service programs have been introduced for the welfare of the elderly . |
| 907 | Essentially , the expenditure used to finance medical and welfare programs should be proportionate to the larger aging population . |
| 908 | With this practice , public spending on the aged . |
| 909 | In the past , the elders have worked hard to raise their children and provide the best for their children . |
| 910 | In fact , this solution somehow could ensure the economy that there would be a sufficient new generation or workforce to provide for the labour market when it comes to the time for the previous generation to retire . |
| 911 | Strong emphasis of family support and creating an awareness about taking responsibility filial obligation , insurance , healthy lifestyle , financial planning and ensuring the aged have enough retirement fund . |
| 912 | In addition , there is no need to neglect the developments of other areas of investments such as the dual approach of slowing down the process of the aging population . Lastly , improvements in other areas of society will bring about a quantum leap in the country 's development . |
| 913 | Moreover , when the government provides support for medical and social spending , it will allow the elderly to have enough money to spend for their other leisure activities . |
| 914 | In many countries , they depend on retirement pension to live through their remaining years . |
| 915 | Hence , as long as a person has sacrificed for the social development of society , he should be looked after by the state when he is old , even if he could no longer contribute in his area of work. . |
| 916 | Moreover , Concern regarding personal saving for old age will arise . |
| 917 | Generally , it is assumed that the young should support the elderly . |
| 918 | In an article in the Reuters , it is indeed believed that as the United States faces growing number of older people , pension and healthcare services are pushed up and thus , compelling major increases in public expenditure |
| 919 | Hence what we can do is to spend on campaigns which emphasize on the social value of the elderly . |
| 920 | Next , national policies such as pension systems are arranged to provide the retired elders income . |
| 921 | One example is by transferring the money that we can use solely on the aged to other fields of the country 's development like improvement in infrastructure . |
| 922 | Furthermore , when the younger generation witnesses how their seniors are being whole-heartedly cared , they will have motivation to work harder and contribute to the country . |
| 923 | The elderly can contribute to the society by using their life experiences to make important decisions for the country . |
| 924 | Experts agree that the CPF is effective in providing the aging population support for their old age as the CPF has also been strategically segmented for health insurance and retirement funds . One study has even remarked that the CPF is changing the concept of social security : from providing savings for retirement to providing savings for life ( Choon and Low , 1996 ) . |
| 925 | It is understood that there will be a cost in providing for the aged . |
| 926 | Clearly , spending on the aged is important . |
| 927 | But in order to achieve that , employers should learn the importance and benefits of employing older employees . |
| 928 | Accordingly , people enjoy better health and live longer . This enables them to stay at work for a longer time . |
| 929 | This is because the older generation contributed to the workforce during their younger days . |
| 930 | The society should also maintain a positive and mature attitude towards ageing population . |
| 931 | These policies cater to the varying needs of the ageing population be it in financial terms or healthcare . |
| 932 | By encouraging people to work for some more years if they still can work well , we would somehow reduce negative effects of this dilemma . |
| 933 | This point of view seems a logical argument for the government to plunge in more money for the aged . |
| 934 | Modern governments promise old age security , which ensures that their citizens can fend for themselves during old age . |
| 935 | Therefore , polices to encourage self-reliance can be implemented to shift the burden of financial aid required when one ages to the individual . |
| 936 | To sum up , the working barrier of the elderly has been lower and they have found different ways to enrich their lives and contribute to society . |
| 937 | In addition to the above mentioned factors , the elderly have already contributed many years of their youth to society . |
| 938 | The lower barrier to elder employment which has been set by the government has allowed employers to take in older workers to work in the jobs mentioned above . |
| 939 | This will allow the elderly to be able to work for longer and delay their retirement . |
| 940 | Therefore , the elderly should not be deprived of employment by providing more incentives for employers to attract such workers and help for those seeking employment opportunities . |
| 941 | Thirdly , the government can provide some work especially for the old unemployed people . |
| 942 | As a result , people 's lifespan also increases . |
| 943 | Secondly , more health issues will surface if the elderly are to work more or longer , especially for the less well-offs as most of them have difficulty in paying for their medical expenses . |
| 944 | The government would get involved once again to provide subsidies for the elderly in medical bills and so on . |
| 945 | ( Chia , 2001 . This programme provides tax subsidies and grants to companies which re-trains older workers to help them be re-deployed effectively and to remain gainfully employed . |
| 946 | In addition , the government has already done its part in preparing its citizens for old age through the CPF Life and Medisave Account . |
| 947 | This policy has been effective as surveys have proved that with the retraining and incentives to hire older workers put in place , employers have been increasingly open about hiring older workers . |
| 948 | The elderly participate and contribute themselves in social development using their professional knowledge , skill , and experience in the types of work which they can engage in within their capacity when they were young . |
| 949 | The reason is that , with a job , the aged can keep themselves busy and do more thinking in order to complete their work . |
| 950 | These issues have similar , if not higher importance , as compared to the aged . |
| 951 | In other words , it is the responsibility of the public to protect elderly rights . |
| 952 | The elderly have been working hard as nation builders for the country throughout their lives and it is only right for us to repay them for their effort . |
| 953 | With regard to the ability of the companies to cope with re-employment of older workers , the government has introduced another program know as the ADVANTAGE ! |
| 954 | So the government 's task is to implement more policies concerning both the mandatory retirement age and employers ' age restriction . |
| 955 | Judging by the policies made for the elderly it is clear that the government has invested a large sum of money in them . |
| 956 | So there is no doubt that the aged are able to lead longer working lives . |
| 957 | With all these concurrent efforts by BCA , mobility has improved vastly for the elderly . |
| 958 | The old are worthy of every resources spent on them as they are still important assets to the nation . |
| 959 | Furthermore , the elderly had worked in bringing up the younger generation . |
| 960 | Moreover , a tendency shows that elders themselves decide to have longer working lives . |
| 961 | Because of this , it is only reasonable that the country should look after these past contributors and not to overlook their achievements just because they are no longer as capable of contributing to the . |
| 962 | To ensure that its citizen will be financially prepared when they reach their retirement age , the Central Provident Fund Board ( CPF ) has came out with a learning portal called 'Retirement Ready @ my cpf ' to help citizens to plan for their retirement ( as cited in CPF , 2009 ) . |
| 963 | It is clear that the benefits are not only distributed amongst the elderly but also amongst the younger generations . |
| 964 | The popular one is about public spending for the elderly in each country . |
| 965 | A large portion of the public health expenditure actually goes to the aged . |
| 966 | This is because everyone , sooner or later will reach the ageing stage and will want their needs to be taken care of as well . |
| 967 | Cost-containment measures on the health care of the elderly have been practised by many governments all over the world . |
| 968 | Some might have the perception that caring for the aged is the responsibility of the country . |
| 969 | First of all , large spending on the aged results in an imbalance of governments ' expenditure . |
| 970 | Also , the CPF Board reminds Singaporeans to save and stretch every dollar whenever possible so as to have comfortable lives after retirement in the future . |
| 971 | To prevent the disruption of the labour market , the elderly are likely to remain in the work force in the near future . |
| 972 | Saving money on the onset of employment should be practiced in preparation for retirement . |
| 973 | Employers now think twice before employing or retaining older workers due to the potential higher liability and costs such as retraining programs and insurance benefits . |
| 974 | Hence , self supporting is another way to reduce dependency on the government . |
| 975 | Realizing this impending danger , the government has been taking some new directions in economic and social policies.To a large extent , current research and policies have helped to ease aging process . |
| 976 | Despite the fact that we do not know the exact measurements of how well these developments have helped the elderly , it is clear these developments are done to make sure our aging population can be well taken care of . |
| 977 | Therefore , it is necessary for the government to review the public policies for the elderly . |
| 978 | The aged have contributed a lot to form and shape society . |
| 979 | One of the policies that has been introduced is that of the retirement age . |
| 980 | Then , this can help to ensure that people can work longer . |
| 981 | This will then ensure that our future generations will learn more and benefit from it , and it is of great importance as they are the future pillars of our society , who will lead our country to greater heights in order to be a successful and progressive nation . |
| 982 | It was set up to finance a company 's efforts to employ , keep or re-employ mature workers ( Yap , 2009 ) . |
| 983 | A carrier could devise a financial plan so that one would have sufficient monetary resources to support oneself even after an early retirement . |
| 984 | What is more , the elderly should be respected and for their contributions in the days of their youth . |
| 985 | However the fact that the aged were young once and also made contributions to the society also needs to be recognized . |
| 986 | For most countries , part of their national budget will be spent on funding the aged each year . |
| 987 | ( 2009 ) finds out that longer working time may help us fight against dementia , one of the most terrible illnesses of old people . |
| 988 | Later retirement , health and social inequality in an aging population " questions the opposite sides of higher retirement age . |
| 989 | They still contribute to the society by looking after their grandchildren while the parents are at work and our Minister Mentor , Mr Lee Kuan Yew , is one example of a person who contributes very much to the country 's polities although he is over eighty years old . |
| 990 | All of these are done as a recognition of what they have contributed to the society over the years . |
| 991 | Firstly , the elderly can provide for society by imparting values to the younger generation . |
| 992 | Instead , they may want to retain the more experienced and skilled older workers to maintain a consistent working standard . |
| 993 | This is due to the fact that the USA is a welfare state and provides pension for the retired . |
| 994 | With the ability to work and also a sustainable income , the elderly will find themselves less dependent on others . |
| 995 | Furthermore , even if someone is old , he/she can still provide for the society in terms of decision making . |
| 996 | Based on the above discussed , the aged should be well taken care of . |
| 997 | And it is in no doubt that the aged require additional spending on public pensions and health care . |
| 998 | Other than the CPF scheme , a scheme for the aged named Eldershield was created to help the aged who suffer from disabilities . |
| 999 | To ease or slow down the aging process is to have the ability to lengthen the lifespan of our youthful healthy days . |
| 1000 | In fact , they should make sure the needs of the aged are attended to . |
| 1001 | With the success of these implementations , I believe the world can shift the paradigm of the aging phenomenon to have a sustainable positive impact . |
| 1002 | Lastly , countries can ease the aging process by building new development of infrastructure in the country . |
| 1003 | This has extended the working life of the labour force . |
| 1004 | Thus , the people can secure themselves when they are old in this way . |
| 1005 | Although now the people who strive for our country are aging and could hardly contribute to the country , still , we should always remember their contributions and take good care of them when they need help . |
| 1006 | The elderly have contributed their years of youth to the society . |
| 1007 | The Eldershield scheme works like an insurance scheme which provides basic financial protection on a monthly basis for the aged . |
| 1008 | , allows the elderly to enter the workforce and maintain a spot in the society . |
| 1009 | Policies have been introduced to help our citizens to work longer . |
| 1010 | With these measures in place , the elderly can be assured that they would be cared for and that health care would remain affordable . |
| 1011 | With this physical and psychological health , people have a tendency to lengthen their life span . |
| 1012 | Some might argue that even though the elderly can not compete with the younger generation for jobs , the government does organize job fairs to help the elderly seek jobs . |
| 1013 | These show us the truth that the government spent a lot of money for the senior citizens . |
| 1014 | Unions are also working with companies to help older workers find and keep jobs through retraining programmes ( Valarie Tan , 2009 ) . |
| 1015 | They argue that the aged needs the best possible care in their sunset years . |
| 1016 | They therefore represent win-win strategies for people of all ages . |
| 1017 | Other than that , the Interim Disability Assistance Programme for the Elderly ( IDAPE ) and Primary Care Partnership ( PCPS ) are other subsidy schemes available . |
| 1018 | With IT , the old can age with dignity . |
| 1019 | To further attract the interest of companies to do so , recognition such as the " AARP International Innovative Employer Awards " is given out to companies which demonstrate innovation in inclusion of elderly in their companies ( AARP International , January 2008 ) . |
| 1020 | This means that the older population should continue to work if they are willing . |
| 1021 | However , this is not a plausible reason to deter the companies from hiring the elderly as the government has improvised a scheme known as the ADVANTAGE fund to encourage more companies to shift towards automation that facilitate the older populace and to re-employ the elderly by giving out incentives and subsides for retraining programmes of the elderly ( Lim , 2007 ) . |
| 1022 | Therefore , we should spend on the aged . |
| 1023 | ( IRAS , 2009 ) It serves as a winning tool as the employers get to bring their businesses to a higher level , and existing workers in turn retain their jobs . |
| 1024 | On the flip side , spending on the aged is equally important . |
| 1025 | Firstly , the aged have contributed their youth to the advancement of the society . |
| 1026 | They claim that spending on the aged is as important . |
| 1027 | Thus , public spending has always included spending on elderly . |
| 1028 | There are subsidies from the government to employers to send workers aged 40 and above to upgrade their skills . |
| 1029 | First is the intention to lengthen the working age . |
| 1030 | Moreover , such policy emphasizes the principle of self-reliance and reduces the burden and social cost of the community . |
| 1031 | In other words , the old have contributed a lot to shaping our country into what she is today . |
| 1032 | Thus , this would allow to remain employable . |
| 1033 | Public spending on the aged |
| 1034 | The elderly have become bright examples for the younger generation in various domains . |
| 1035 | Public Spending on Aged |
| 1036 | Furthermore , working longer keeps one 's mind constantly generating thoughts and ideas . |
| 1037 | In Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea , most of the elderly still live with their adult children and can even help to cook , do house work and take care of the grandchildren . |

| 0 | Anotherr implication of overspending on the aged will be slowing down the growth of the economy which leads to unemployment as the market is unable to support the additional people . |
|---|---|
| 1 | If there is a tendency to spend more than necessary on the aged , other sectors of the economy might find that they lack finances to function adequately . |
| 2 | Although it may be costly to provide healthcare , pensions and other welfare programs , the country 's social and economic aspects will deteriorate if an aging population is unattended to . |
| 3 | Last but not least , with an increasing aging population , the cost of easing aging-society problems through larger government spending can not justify the benefits in the long run . |
| 4 | When the government tries to spend more and more on the aged , it will lead to a lack in money for development , then a slower economic growth , which will finally leave the government with less choice to spend for the elderly people . |
| 5 | Just as the aging population is a serious problem , spending on the aged population is also a problem if it is not done properly . |
| 6 | Therefore , if the government limits public spending on the aged , a lot of the young and elderly will suffer . |
| 7 | If the government were to place a limit on its spending for the aged , the aged will have to go through more difficult aging processes as there wo n't be sufficient provisions for the elderly to live more comfortably , especially when the country is experiencing a huge demographic change . |
| 8 | Lastly , the limiting of public spending on the aged will increase the financial hardship of the elderly . |
| 9 | The idea of reducing public spending for the aged would eventually generate more problems in the country and thus slow down the country 's development instead . |
| 10 | Nevertheless , limitation of public spending on the elderly might lead to many unhappy voices from the citizens as they might think that the government is not taking care of the aged population 's welfare when they are unable to contribute to the economy . |
|---|---|
| 11 | In conclusion , people may be upset with the idea of limiting public spending on the elderly because they may think that the aged increasingly lack care from the society . |
| 12 | Thus , if governments were to reduce elderly welfare in the future due to circumstances like serious budget deficit , these over dependent elderly would face difficulties in their life . |
| 13 | With more money from public spending spent on the aged , this also means that there is less money for the other areas of development in the country . |
| 14 | When there are few to sustain the high cost of maintaining the aged , the aged will eventually suffer . |
| 15 | Furthermore it does not help much in economic growth if governments provide too much welfare support for the elderly . |
| 16 | Consequently a country can not afford to spend too much on the elderly because of practical realities . |
| 17 | In this economy driven society , taking too much of the public 's resources to support the elderly does not bode well for the future of the country . |
| 18 | A country can not afford to spend too much on the elderly because of practical realities . |
| 19 | With the decrease in public spending on the elderly , many elderly people will come under pressure as they will have greater financial dependency on others . |
| 20 | On the other hand , if most public spending is used on easing the aging process , it will slow down economic growth because it 's more of a cost than income for the country . |
| 21 | Though some may agree that public spending on the aged largely aids society in coping with the needs of an ageing population , it may also hinder the development of other sectors . |
| 22 | It will hinder the countries ' growth in the long run because more tax payers ' money will be used for public spending on the aged . |
| 23 | On the other hand , if public spending on the aged were reduced , many social problems would arise in the country . |
| 24 | If the government decides to cut its expenditure on the aged population , the elderly will be struggling for their survival as many welfare benefits will be limited . |
| 25 | With greater expenditure on helping the aged , the country will have less funds for development in other areas such as infrastructure . |
| 26 | There is a growing concern to rein in public spending on the aged as its continual increase can become a threat to a nation 's economy which in turn can affect its survival . |
| 27 | However , if the country were to divert most of its public spending to the aged now , it is almost certain that it will face an arduous problem in the near future . |
| 28 | It is said that , if a huge portion of the public 's money goes to the aging population , it will cause undesirable effects to the country in many ways . |
| 29 | Many governments are concerned about an aging population as it leads to problems such as a shrinking workforce , decrease in economic growth due to a drop in productivity , increase in societal costs and many more . |
| 30 | However , we should not spend such a large amount of money on the elderly since it might cause the loss of financial supporting for other important areas of development such as education , military or infrastructure With the iincrease in the aging population and less financial support from cash-strapped young generation , the government even has a heavier burden on its shoulders to give more money to support the seniors ' lives now . |
| 31 | If majority of the spending is focused on the aged , it would limit the growth of the country , which would consequently lower the standard of living for all . |
| 32 | The increase in the number of aged people has seriously slowed down the development of a country and burdened the government in terms of healthcare and financial aid packages for the elderly . |
| 33 | Main concern is that the graying population may cause the national economy to come under pressure as there will be less younger people to support the growing numbers of elderly . |
| 34 | ' This point justifies that reducing the budget in necessary public spending on the aged might in fact hinder the country 's development under certain circumstances . |
| 35 | Many citizens especially the elderly will be upset over the limited support for the aged . |
| 36 | It is controversial since many people are afraid that spending too much money on the elderly might decrease national budgets for other areas of development . |
| 37 | If this trend were to carry on , national budgets and economies will come under pressure , as a large sum of money will have to be spent taking care of the elderly . |
| 38 | The government can not afford to bear the huge cost of public spending on the aged , as it would drain government resources . |
| 39 | Limiting public spending will make it harder for them to live , especially for old people who have no children and are in poor physical condition . |
| 40 | The substantial cost of generous elderly care will not be fully supported if the countries ' financial position is unstable . |
| 41 | The elderly will face financial hardship and an excess of stress in their lives if they have no sufficient money to survive in high price era . |
| 42 | Moreover , little economic growth often leads to lower income which makes it impossible for people to save much money for their old age . |
| 43 | The elderly should be educated about the aging population , because the economy may be severely affected if they are no longer able to support themselves financially . |
| 44 | While it seems that it is necessary for a government to increase public spending to fund the aged so that productivity of the workers can be maintained , this can not be sustained in the long run . |
| 45 | However , when public spending on the aged is not limited and allowed to be raised continuously , everyone in the country is going to suffer in long run . |
| 46 | The challenge of an aging situation will cause social issues such as the shrinking workforce to be faced with an increasing burden of supporting the elderly . |
| 47 | While the majority of the solutions revolve around increasing public spending on the aged , many think that such a proposal is not viable nor well balanced , as the economic aspect of a country has not been taken into account . |
| 48 | This is because excessive public spending on the aged can hamper the country 's development in other areas such as education , research and investments . |
| 49 | To summarise , governments should also recognize the fact that unlimited spending on the aged will not be viable in the long run as individuals will only grow to be more reliant on the government to provide for them in their old age . |
| 50 | Over spending may result in a shortage of resources in the development of the nation , while under spending may imply negligence of government towards the aged . |
| 51 | To sum up , even though the aging issue is quite difficult to handle , public spending for the elderly should have a certain limitation . |
| 52 | Once the support for the elderly takes up too much of the budget , then other sectors of society can not receive adequate financial assistance . |
| 53 | However , most people fail to realize that limiting public spending on an ageing society 's welfare system actually weakens the country 's economy . |
| 54 | For this reason , too much money paid for caring for the graying population means the shortage of concern on other essential areas . |
| 55 | Excuses such as high cost of living making it hard for working adults to pay for their elderly 's living expenses will not exist too . |
| 56 | Furthermore , the elderly people , who are unable to continue earning and have little support from the young , seem to have many financial difficulties and have become a burden to society . |
| 57 | However , as in the recession period , old people have difficulty in supporting their own living expenses , which results in social spending for the aged . |
| 58 | An aging population may prove costly to the society and economy if the country fails to prepare for the situation . |
| 59 | As the population ages , it is more difficult for them to work as efficiently as before and their market value also falls . |
| 60 | " Providing for the aged will therefore hinder the nation 's overall development in other aspects . |
| 61 | The elderly are the more vulnerable group in this situation due to the fact that they are not capable of generating income to provide for themselves . |
| 62 | In my opinion , channeling too much government funds to taking care of the aged can have detrimental effects on the country 's development . |
| 63 | If governments were to provide little or no help to the aged , the citizens would be worried about their future in the country and result in a threat to social stability . |
| 64 | Even though it is essential for the government to allocate public spending on the aged since the effects of the ageing population will impact the national economy and society , unlimited funding on the aged may have negative implications on the economy . |
| 65 | It is crucial for the government to spend money on the aged , as not doing so will lead to social problems . |
| 66 | In conclusion , although spending money on the elderly can help ease the problem effectively in the short run , it is not a feasible solution , as one must consider the effects in the long run . |
| 67 | Some may say that maintaining economic stability will result in insufficiency of public funds to help the aged . |
| 68 | Besides , if we were to slow down the country 's development , this might hinder our economic growth which , in turn , will affect public spending on the aged indirectly . |
| 69 | Excessive spending on the aged will help them in the short run but will also impede the development of the country . |
| 70 | Although it would be ideal if the government need not be 'burdened ' with expenses to care for the aged , it is not feasible . |
| 71 | Policies aimed at improving the employability of older workers may prove to be ineffective , thus creating economical problems apart from the existing social issues . |
| 72 | If the responsibility of taking care of the aged fell solely on the government , the huge increase in fiscal budget will not be an amount the existing workforce and taxpayers can meet . |
| 73 | Such demographic changes might bring about severe consequences , most importantly national budgets might be under pressure as a growing number of elderly persons are supported by fewer younger persons . |
| 74 | If the public spending were limited , there will be financial hardship on the elderly , especially for elderly women . |
| 75 | Diverting too much of a country 's budget to the aged can prove to be a heavy burden on its economy . |
| 76 | From the statistics above , it has shown that the current research and development or policies may not be successful in helping the elderly to cope with the aging process such as becoming physically disabled or feeling less worthy in the society due to loss of working ability . |
| 77 | Due to the fact that it may not be very realistic for those people who are already very old , disabled or need much medical care to be very productive , some other ways shall be combined to tackle the problem of aging population . |
| 78 | Therefore , the 'extra money ' that the elderly possess at the expense of the government may not result in the most efficient allocation of resources . |
| 79 | Needless to say , the nation would have problems to support the increasing spending on the elderly in a bearish economy . |
| 80 | The aging problem is serious ; it may slow down the economic growth in a country and create long-term stagnation . |
| 81 | However , due to practical reasons , a country has its limitations in supporting the aged . |
| 82 | Critics argue that by limiting the government spending on the aged , it would increase the negative impact of an aging population . |
| 83 | This accounts for the difficulty in deciding the amount of funds to be diverted to helping the ageing population as many believe that money directed to boosting a country 's economic growth is more practical than spending it on an ageing population which offers no economic returns . |
| 84 | With such a low number of working adults to support the elderly , there would be a need for the government to at least maintain its current expenditure on the aged . |
| 85 | However , increasing public spending on the aged is not a sustainable long term strategy . |
| 86 | Single and poor elderly would not be able to reap the benefits but suffered because of limited public spending by the government on them . |
| 87 | Although some policies do facilitate in reducing the expenditure towards the elderly to a certain extent , it may still prove to be insufficient in easing the aging process . |
| 88 | This means that the capacity that these governments have to support an aging population in the long run would eventually be weakened due to a lower budget . |
| 89 | Despite these significant consequences related to an aging population , " they ( Governments ) must realize that any further expansion of retirement benefits would only impoverish future generations and limit future public spending |
| 90 | However , some people may think that the aged is a burden to society as they believe that the physical condition of the aged can not cope with the development of the country . |
| 91 | With regards to tending to the aged , economic growth may restrict some of the current plans the government may have , but in the future , the government will have more say and economic power to do more for the aged . |
| 92 | This is simply due to fact that setting a limit that is too low may result in some elderly not receiving adequate medical care and home care , and setting a limit that is too high may result in an increased burden on government policies and on the working population in society . |
| 93 | " Nevertheless , this is a difficult task as the efficiency and productivity of elderly workers decreases with their increase in age . |
| 94 | Public spending on the aged has been increasing in recent years due to the ageing population , which results in lesser spending on the other areas of the country 's development . |
| 95 | Major increases in public spending for pension fund and health care costs for the elderly will slow economic growth in most countries , even in developed countries . |
| 96 | A decrease in the spending to fulfill the constant needs of an aging population will not be worthwhile t . |
| 97 | Despite increasing the retirement age to reduce the pressure on economic development , the children of the elderly might not be willing to let their parents continue working at such an old age . |
| 98 | Although public spending on the elderly is an endless process as they do n't generate much productivity to the country , social responsibility as a nation needs to be promoted. . |
| 99 | Basically , with the number of the working population dwindling and the number of the so called " old aged " rising up , the expense for taking care of the " old " is increasing and the economy is facing a huge threat of collapsing . |
| 100 | It seems that aging population will become a worse problem if current low-level government spending is going to be cut further . |
| 101 | Those who oppose cutting government expenditure on elderly argue that limited spending will cause social instability as many families with low income will suffer when the elderly generation needs medical support . |
| 102 | In other words , the public expenditures on the aged have created barriers which limit the improvement of other fields . |
| 103 | However , economic problems may have a very bad impact on efforts to slow down the aging process . |
| 104 | However , most of these policies tend to be ineffective in easing the ageing process because they either have their limitations or fail to solve the social problems behind the ageing process . |
| 105 | In the event that the government 's expenditure on the aged is restricted while the number of elderly is surging , the needs of the elderly may not be completely attended to . |
| 106 | Firstly , an aging population greatly threatens a country 's economic development because with more elderly retiring , the workforce productivity falls sharply . |
| 107 | However , to limit the public spending on policies to deal with an aging population effectively translates to inadequacy in catering to an aging population . |
| 108 | Social policies , practices and attitudes discourage working at an older age because the retirement for the elderly will be costly for firms . |
| 109 | Therefore , they are the people who will suffer the most if we limit spending for the aged . |
| 110 | Some people argue that limiting public pensions for the aged will bring detrimental effects to their life . |
| 111 | To spend too large an amount of public funds on the elderly will definitely burden both the country and the working population . |
| 112 | When it comes to financial assistance , the welfare organisation , too , will have difficulty in helping the elderly . |
| 113 | Currently , these policies are not working as well as the government 's expectations , seeing that the future generation in an ageing population is essential , public spending would be needed to intensify these campaigns so as to improve its efficiency . |
| 114 | They have worked so hard to contribute to the economy but the government does not provide sufficient care for them when they are old . |
| 115 | Besides that , if the public spending on the aged is limited it may drastically increase the burden of future generations as they have to undertake so many responsibilities with limited income . |
| 116 | Consequently , the government may not be able to provide enough pension and health care to help improve the old citizens ' life as a result of lack of finance . |
| 117 | if the elderly do not continue to work , it will put a huge strain on the country 's finances . |
| 118 | A developed country with a graying population brings about a shrinking workforce . If spending were focused on the aged it could cripple the country 's economy and halt developments . |
| 119 | The continual provision of public assistance for the elderly through public spending can actually drain the resources of the state . |
| 120 | In view of their past and potential contributions in developing the nations , limiting public spending on the aged may actually impede the progress of the nation . |
| 121 | In the long run , the tax burden to support the aged may seem too demanding for the young workers . |
| 122 | This is due to the fact that it is almost impossible for the younger generation to support the aged , considering number of aged in society greatly outweighs the generation that supports them . |
| 123 | Welfare cost for the aged will increase indefinitely as the aging population increases . So , if the government did not limit public spending for the aged , it may eventually take a much larger portion of the national budget . |
| 124 | To add on , less spending on the aged could have caused social problems . |
| 125 | There could be a social backlash if the government were to limit the public spending on the aged . |
| 126 | This means that it is less likely to reduce elder dependency if there are no substantial benefits to employ such employees . |
| 127 | If the government continues to splurge a lot in funding the aged , the country 's capital would ultimately become unbalanced and would be insufficient to spend on the other areas , for instance , education . |
| 128 | This causes them to not have much savings when they grow old . |
| 129 | Some might argue that it is the government 's duty to look after the welfare of its citizens , but if the government were to look after all the elderly without the help of the children , it would certainly cost the government an enormous amount of time and money . |
| 130 | As a result , this will become very costly to the working generations , and also it will be a hindrance to economic growth . |
| 131 | Some critics argue that limiting public spending on the aged will become a financial burden to low-income families . |
| 132 | More public finance on the aged will compromise the investments on human capital . |
| 133 | Without these policies , the government may increase spending on the old people or the young people will be more burdened . |
| 134 | However , setting limitations on public spending on the aged may or may not assist development of the nation but the changes may shatter the existing system . |
| 135 | Maintaining or increasing the budget allocations for the elderly regardless of limited resources means running the risk of larger budget deficits . |
| 136 | We can increase public spending for the aged , but it will compromise financial resources allocated for the general population . |
| 137 | However , employers may still not be willing to accept older workers due to their lower productivity . |
| 138 | Despite the changes that are being implemented , such measures are insufficient to help the aged as the root problems of rising cost and increasing inaccessibility are not addressed . |
| 139 | Another argument is when the government pays so much on the other areas , there will not be any money to help the elderly . |
| 140 | Besides , some elderly still wish to continue working as a result of insufficient savings and the increasing cost of living . |
| 141 | Indeed , perhaps everyone is afraid of aging because it not only marks deterioration in physical health and significant psychological changes , but also places more financial burdens on the government and the society , because obviously , the elderly need fiscal support , better health care and facilities specialized for their age-related problems . |
| 142 | However , others may argue that these actions are not effective because educating the young does take a long time especially when aging is a pressing problem at the moment . |
| 143 | In other words , if welfare programs for the aged are reduced due to limited spending , many problems would arise . |
| 144 | It is hoped that the longer the workers work , the more money they can save for their life after retirement.However , some people think that the policy is ineffective . |
| 145 | In conclusion , to a large extent , current policies implemented have not helped much to ease the aging process . |
| 146 | As rising health issues and living costs emerge as a threat to social stability and economic growth , the government must manage public spending on the elderly effectively . |
| 147 | Large and long-term healthcare expenses can substantially drain the resources of many of the elderly , especially for those without any savings for their retirement . |
| 148 | Hence , since the workforce is the main sector that drives the economy , an ageing workforce which is inefficient will slow down economic growth and hinder the country 's progress . |
| 149 | As these activities require government funding , limiting spending on the aged will make organizing these activities impossible . |
| 150 | This results in the lack of employment by the older generation and thus they will have financial issues trying to support themselves . |
| 151 | Setting limits on spending on the aged would raise indignation among the elderly , especially among people without savings , poor single women , and the illiterate . |
| 152 | And restricting the cost on the aged in order to advance other necessary areas is a difficult decision for them . |
| 153 | The elderly patient would not be able to afford the bills . |
| 154 | As a result , the existing alternative plan for increasing aging population employment is not effective |
| 155 | Limiting public spending on the aged is a serious matter , especially for those who are physically disabled or who live alone without children . |
| 156 | On the other hand , this scheme is not in easing the aging process because the net payout ( cash ) is low . |
| 157 | With a restricted budget for these sectors , we may have to live with a lower quality of life and a less secured nation , which would also lower the living standards amongst the aged . |
| 158 | Therefore , whether it is due to moral obligation or for fulfilling one 's responsibility , compromising public spending on other areas of the country 's development for the aged is unavoidable . |
| 159 | One of the major problems of an ageing population is the lack of workforce to drive the economy . |
| 160 | Otherwise , it would be a huge drain on the tax payer 's money , which will not be utilized to its maximum potential . |
| 161 | These diseases often decrease the quality of life of the elderly because they cause the elderly to lose their ability to live a normal life as they used to live . |
| 162 | A declining population and a longer life expectancy results in an aging population , causing a high dependency ratio in some countries . |
| 163 | This is because the current benefits that are provided for the elderly are still inadequate . |
| 164 | Apart from that , the government 's initiative in raising the retirement age is also seen to be not effective . |
| 165 | However , what most governments do is just to increase public spending on the aged , which is not enough to tackle the issue and even decreases the country 's development . |
| 166 | On the other hand , critics of this notion have argued that with reduced government spending , less educated old folks and those who did not save enough would be at a severe disadvantage as compared to the rest of the population . |
| 167 | However , some policies introduced by the government are causing much problems for the society which outweighs the effect of easing the ageing process . |
| 168 | Moreover foreign investments will be discouraged if governments over-spend on an aging population and neglect developing other areas . |
| 169 | Limiting the public spending on the elderly is also not an efficient way to cope with an aging population . |
| 170 | If expenditure on the aged is not controlled , the government would be putting more and more money into something which would not really have any impact on the country 's economic growth . |
| 171 | Spending a lot of money is not the most effective way to solve the aging problem . |
| 172 | Spending increase for the aged will surely reduce the country 's total deposits and thus reduce the general social investment , imposing a negative impact on the sustainable , coordinated , steady and fast development of the nation 's economy . |
| 173 | Controversially , citizens have argued that these policies do not help them in the aging process because it has taken a toll on their nett salary after having money deducted to their " CPF " contributions which make monthly living allowances even less for them . |
| 174 | If other areas of the country 's development such as education and the economy are not invested in adequately , future generations of older people are likely to be even worse off . |
| 175 | By directing more funds to the aged , there will be lesser funds for other areas of the country 's development . |
| 176 | Some may argue that the aged need more money as they are unable to earn income to support their living . |
| 177 | With an increasing aging population , countries will face lower productivity and increased social and health care costs . |
| 178 | A sizeable segment of the aged would suffer through the process of achieving economic growth . |
| 179 | In addition , the elderly might be reluctant to work due to being over reliant on the government . |
| 180 | With public spending reduced in areas such as education and housing so as to fund the elderly , the country 's development would be hindered by the lack of funds . |
| 181 | Firstly , it is not worth spending a lot of money on the aged at the cost of the whole society 's development . |
| 182 | Hence , if we focused too much on pushing forward our economy and progress and neglect to take care of our aged , we might just lose our values . |
| 183 | Therefore , if government spending on the aged increases due to aging population issues , the budget on infrastructure development will be lesser and this may affect the country 's economic development . |
| 184 | In an aging population , having increasing tax contribution from the shrinking workforce can be a burden to the working people . |
| 185 | At this point , one may wonder if the government were to limit public spending on the aged , it will lead to higher burden on the rest of the family , perpetuating more social problems like family violence . |
| 186 | Although the aging problem is worsening , it is not a wise choice to focus too much attention on the issue . |
| 187 | The declining workforce not only causes problems to the countries ' economy but also brings along social problems as well . |
| 188 | Making the working class pay more taxes to finance the needs of the aged will cause resentment amongst the working class . |
| 189 | The government and the public are contributing a vast amount of resources to support the aged , hindering the overall development of the country . |
| 190 | However , there are other ways to deal with the problems of aging population rather than financing the welfare of elderly which will reduce the amount available to spend on more pressing issues now . |
| 191 | Public spendings on the aged may be beneficial for the society 's welfare in the short run ; however , it might incur a huge cost on the economy in the future . |
| 192 | Unlimited funding may discourage people from staying employed and accumulating savings to see them through their old age as they may have the tendency to rely on the benefits provided by the government . |
| 193 | With the limitation of public spending on the aged , the elderly might not receive essential healthcare due to insufficient funding , which may lead to undesired . |
| 194 | However , it may not be true because the repercussion of not spending on the aged will be even greater in the long run . |
| 195 | This may lead to unhappiness in and weariness of the working population especially given that the number of working persons supporting an elderly has decreased . |
| 196 | As governments have limited budget , they can not afford to spend limitlessly on the aged . |
| 197 | As such should the government be spending more or even lavishly on building care for the elderly ? This could be significantly depriving other areas for development , for example , the economic sector due to the shortage of funds for investments , and the social environment due to the limited resources for enhancing the quality of living , to name a few . |
| 198 | Therefore , cutting down on welfare programs will burden the working adult with greater financial problems . |
| 199 | Later retirement could cause a decrease in productivity because old people tend to be less healthy or less up-to-date with the new technology and information than the younger ones . |
| 200 | There may be a portion of the senior citizens who find it difficult to cope with the cost of living after retirement as they no longer have an income to support them . |
| 201 | Furthermore , limiting public spending on the aged is not an easy task . |
| 202 | Thus , people often claim that age dependency has become an actual crisis of the society , and government has taken action to decrease their social welfare expenditure during period of fiscal constraint . |
| 203 | However , some people feel that by increasing the retirement age , there will be lesser job opportunities for the younger generation . |
| 204 | Now fiscal policy to help the aged does not satisfy everybody 's needs . |
| 205 | Some may point to the fact that providing for the aged drains a nation of its resources and reduces resources for future generations , but the whole idea is fundamentally flawed . |
| 206 | However , I do not support this argument as increasing public spending on the aged is a necessary step for the government to take in order to prepare the country to face an ageing population . |
| 207 | In lieu with the current economic crisis , many have found themselves unemployed or retrenched and are finding it difficult to survive , particularly those who live on credit or have a household to provide for . |
| 208 | Spending too much on the aging population will not benefit the country at all as spending too much will only waste the funds and will not bring any development or solution for the problem . |
| 209 | One may be afraid of growing old as more health problems will arise and it may be difficult getting the necessary healthcare . |
| 210 | Investing in the aged is not as profitable as investing in some other domains . |
| 211 | If limitations are set , they will not be able to afford huge sum of money that they have to pay . |
| 212 | Moreover , too much pension may even lead to pension abuse which will make public spending ineffective . |
| 213 | In other words , if a country were to continue with their current system and not consider the foreseeable problem , too much focus and money will be used in an attempt to resolve the aged problem . |
| 214 | However , not every elderly in the society can get to enjoy these perks , especially those who are bound by financial problems . |
| 215 | Some forms of discrimination occur when current policies that are supposed to protect the ageing population are inefficient , as they do not seem to eradicate the problems of poverty among the aged . |
| 216 | In a society accompanied by materialism and ageism , the needy aged will be pushed to their limits as many of them are vulnerable . |
| 217 | Furthermore , more elderly would be unemployed as they are unable to work as efficiently as the working-age adults which cause their social circle to shrink . |
| 218 | Some may argue that the incentives given by the government now are more than enough ; however , the number of elderly people with no homes is still alarming till date . |
| 219 | So , the suggestion to cut down spending for the old age people is not a good solution to use the money for other areas of development . |
| 220 | Therefore , instead of striving for better development for the future generation , setting a limit on health care for the aged could burden and prevent a country from developing better , in the way that it should be . |
| 221 | The government will not be able to provide much as the population continues to age , and there will not be as many people in the workforce as birth rates continue to drop . |
| 222 | As mentioned earlier , one reason why we should not limit the spending is that it may not be fair to the elderly when there may be those who are really in great need of support from the government . |
| 223 | The ageing process can be a tough and tumultuous time for the elderly , in terms of their well being and financial stability . |
| 224 | For most people , if they know they will have to take care of themselves more when they are old , they will be forced to save money for the future . |
| 225 | If the part of the funding for the aged is overstressed , it is more likely that the spending in other sectors by the governments have to be reduced , so as to compensate the budget . |
| 226 | A country with sick elderly people will hinder the growth of investments as it shows a lack of planning on the government 's part . |
| 227 | If the government has to spend on the aged , fewer funds will be channeled into these areas , which is a cause for concern . |
| 228 | It is understandable that the public and the elderly are worried that if the government does not spend enough on the ageing issues , the elderly will be forgotten by the society . |
| 229 | In the long run , this financial responsibility may be too much for the working population to bear . |
| 230 | The fact that more elderly persons will be supported by fewer younger persons now and the problem will get more severe in the near future , it is important that emphasis be placed on improving the productivity of current working population and making sure that they have the ability to earn enough for their old age . |
| 231 | Such increase in longevity and the reduce in birth rates , will no doubt lead to an inevitable rise to the problems of aging , as there are fewer and fewer young people to support the rising number of elderly , both financially and/ socially . |
| 232 | It will touch on the moral issues inherent and also argue that it is actually detrimental to a country 's future if its aged are not well taken care of , even if the money saved by limiting public spending on the elderly is spent developing other areas such as education and research and development . |
| 233 | If the public spending were to be over constrained , it will deprive those who are genuinely in need of help from getting sufficient assistance . |
| 234 | The reduction of the funds allocated for the elderly might lead to many social issues . |
| 235 | On the other hand , spending on the old age should not be too little either as spending too little will cause the population to be upset and therefore decrease the government stability . |
| 236 | Some people may say that offering sufficient public spending will make the aged rely more on the government . |
| 237 | Due to a fast-paced and stressful working environment , the elder generations would not be motivated to extend their stay in the workforce . |
| 238 | In the long term , the increase of the aging population will lower the Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) of the country . |
| 239 | However , living longer also means the need to depend on others as aging will weaker a person physically and thus results in a person unable to contribute to the society . |
| 240 | However , if the government spends more money on the aging group , the country 's development will become stagnant and imbalanced as there is a lack of funds to run the country 's development projects . |
| 241 | The ageing population is creating many social problems such as healthcare problems , high government expenses and high income taxes , which are causing stress for young workers and the aged people . |
| 242 | If we do not pay attention to the needs of the older generation , we would be considered as people with no sense of appreciation to what the older generation has done for us . |
| 243 | Since they are old , retired and do not have much savings , large health and long-term care expenses will significantly deplete their resources . |
| 244 | In conclusion , most of the current policies in easing the ageing process have their limitations or are ineffective . |
| 245 | As elderly productivity decreases with age , the ability to command the same income as before is almost impossible . |
| 246 | However , there is a risk involved in limiting spending on the aged . |
| 247 | This reduction will no doubt cripple the country 's economy , as funds will have to be used to cater to the needs of the older majority . |
| 248 | Many people claim that government 's spending on easing the aging process is a waste . |
| 249 | If the public spending on the aged is not brought under control , the government will have to raise taxes to sustain its coffers which can irk its citizens and result in exodus of businesses if labor costs increase . |
| 250 | The aged are vulnerable failed investments and the poorer elderly may not be well protected as they do not possess much capital . |
| 251 | Moreover , it can also be argued that the government 's approach is not a good remedy to cope with the aging problem permanently . |
| 252 | Forcing oneself to work beyond his/her limit might cause one 's health to further deteriorate and have a negative impact to the economy . |
| 253 | Although such policies can reduce the people 's dependency on the government , it may not be practical for some . |
| 254 | This would lead to more constraints and limitations rather than solving the issues of an an aging population . |
| 255 | And when most of the focus and attention of the government are on the ageing issues , the development of the country might be neglected , of which in the long run would ruin the country . |
| 256 | Clearly any further expansion of financial schemes on the elderly will only impoverish future generations and limit future public spending . |
| 257 | The current situation is worrying as when this generation ages , the government will need to provide a certain care for them . |
| 258 | The country will simply be burdened by placing more funds into rewarding or simply sustaining the elderly . |
| 259 | Hence , the elders who use these methods to obtain the products will only worsen their ageing process with financial worries . |
| 260 | While this may be true , such measures are ineffective in reducing old-age poverty as many elderly have little understanding of how the system works and do not possess the necessary financial knowledge to manage their savings and allowance . |
| 261 | If the government is to cut back on its funding , social agencies will face difficulties in sustaining their operation , not to mention the support they are able to provide for the aged . |
| 262 | If there are no measures taken to ease the aging process , the probability of the society and the people being overwhelmed by the problems might be greater . |
| 263 | Even though this policy largely benefits the elderly , the rest of the society will suffer . |
| 264 | Moreover , the over-emphasis in aiding the elders for their sunset years may cause the insufficiency of financial resource in the other parts of the country . |
| 265 | In reality , some elderly employees challenge the raising of the retirement age as this delays their eligibility for their pension . . |
| 266 | Besides , when people are aware that not much capital is available , they may not choose the most efficient but more costly solution in the course of 'analyzing and selecting a solution ' , which may bring about bad effects in the long run . |
| 267 | Some may say it is inhumane to limit spending on the aged . |
| 268 | Some people disagree that public spending on aged should be cut down , arguing that the cost of supporting an old person may be too much of a burden for young adults nowadays . |
| 269 | Some critics say implementing this solution might imply that the government does not want to support the elderly ; however , it is a practical solution to the current aging population problem . |
| 270 | Furthermore , the limitation in public expenditure on the elderly will also affect the level of physical , mental and emotional well-being of an elderly person . |
| 271 | In conclusion , even if the limitation on public spending for the elderly will result in more burden for the young and elderly , because of the long-term impact that it may have , such as more jobs , better education , and increase in Gross Domestic Product . |
| 272 | However , with the continuous development of technologies and treatments , the government will not be able to pay in full the health care cost for the aged . |
| 273 | Cutting down spending on the elderly will only increase the seriousness of the aging issues . |
| 274 | Being unsure of their future financial requirements , the elderly might be unable to plan for their expenditure , and might drain their finances too quickly . |
| 275 | The economy in turn suffers due to the threats on the productivity of the aged . |
| 276 | If this trend does not change in the next few years , the average citizens would have to pay more , in order to enable the government to use the money for the aged ones . |
| 277 | Hence , unlimited funding instead of proper allocation of public spending on the aged may drain the economy . |
| 278 | If a country neglects other aspects such as education and infrastructure development , but over focuses on public spending on the aged , its economy will suffer drastically . |
| 279 | These areas will affect how much a nation can support its aging population . |
| 280 | The expenditure on elderly people is slowing down the economic growth . |
| 281 | Firstly , spending too much money on the aged will not bring much return profit . |
| 282 | National budgets and economies will come under pressure as more funds are required to support the growing numbers of elderly persons . |
| 283 | The reason why I say this is because the public spending on the aged is limited . The young people must work harder in order to save more money for the future in the worst case that no one will pay for them . |
| 284 | On the other hand , most employers unwilling to hire the older people as they are not as productive as the younger generation and might cause more liabilities to the company if they claim a large sum of money on their medical purposes . |
| 285 | It would be useful when there is an economic downturn and the government is not able to spend on the aged . |
| 286 | The diminishing of economic productivity due to the aging population may have an abysmal effect on a country . |
| 287 | Though spending on the aged could also improves the living standard and the image of a country , it would be less effective , as compared to the spending in infrastructure and defense . |
| 288 | The National budgets and economies will come under pressure as growing numbers of elderly persons are supported by relatively fewer younger persons . |
| 289 | The increasing size of the economy could be relatively limited , but spending more on the aged does allow the government to have more choices to take care of the aged in a better way . |
| 290 | Thus , if the government chooses to reduce public spending on them , social issues such as elderly suicide rates may rise . |
| 291 | Previously , the aging was a tough process having to deal with the many problems faced . |
| 292 | Not only are the elderly hindering a country 's economic growth , they are depleting it at an alarming rate as well . |
| 293 | This is because it does not address the current and impending situation of the aging population , and at the same time the aged are the most vulnerable in the society . |
| 294 | In such a situation , there will be a surge in productivity initially , but we may expect a serious drop in the long run which aggravates the aging problem due to the shrinking population . |
| 295 | An argument against these assistance schemes is that these will increase the dependency of senior citizens on the government as they know that they will be provided if they are unable to pay for their medical bills . |
| 296 | In conclusion , the aging population is increasing and with it comes slower economic growth for countries . |
| 297 | As a result , it will lead to the economic problems associated with its graying population . |
| 298 | Thus , many national budgets and economies will come under pressure as growing numbers of elderly people outnumber the number of younger people . |
| 299 | Not only is it due to moral obligation , ignoring the aging population would also result in other social problems that might be even more difficult to solve . |
| 300 | If the population of the aging group is still expanding , the national budget will soon be drained by supporting the aged group with welfare treatment . |
| 301 | It is true that the quality of lives of the aged will improve but that does not help in boosting the economy of the country . |
| 302 | Due to the complexity of these policies , some elderly do not even know how to use them to their benefits , hence rendering them worthless . |
| 303 | In conclusion , the policies are not effective in helping the elders to ease their old-age dependency . |
| 304 | In other words , the purposes of investing in other areas of development by using money saved from the fiscal costs on the aged can not be fully fulfilled . |
| 305 | Public spending may not be appealing because there are no advantages and immediate benefits received from spending on the aged as compared to using these resources to invest in the economy , defence or infrastructure . |
| 306 | One of problems is that the government might need to channel more revenue to meet the demands of the elderly group . |
| 307 | However , we should not neglect that these new technologies come with high costs , and it is unlikely to benefit all elderly as many are not financially self-sufficient . |
| 308 | The people may view the government as not wanting to take care of the aged , and see them as a burden . |
| 309 | Hence , they would have difficulty maintaining their standard of living . |
| 310 | Some people may argue that there will be insufficient protection for the elderly if the government shifts this fund to some other areas of the country 's development . |
| 311 | The original intention of helping the elderly would then be tainted as the resulting situation would in fact cause suffering for more people . |
| 312 | Also , other social issues associated with an aging population , like declining birth rate and people living longer , have indicated that there will be fewer working adults available to contribute to the society and to support the aged . |
| 313 | Finally , the current policies have not helped to ease the ageing process because they are not holistic . |
| 314 | However , regardless how much the economy is growing , not every person is going to accumulate enough wealth for their old age . |
| 315 | Society might find it difficult to advance if the aged population is being left behind as the mindsets , cultures and values of these different age groups would not be able to shift together with time . |
| 316 | it will definitely put a strain on the economic budget and does not reap any return if public spending on the aged has no limits . |
| 317 | " An aging population will push up pension and healthcare costs , forcing major increases in public spending that could slow economic growth in rich and poor countries . |
| 318 | Individuals do not see the benefit in investing in an aged population as they tend to associate it with having a high opportunity cost . |
| 319 | Consequently , this solution would not be effective in the long run due to the money-consuming factor . |
| 320 | However , diverting the resources to boost economic growth may not always result in a guaranteed protection of the welfare of the aged . |
| 321 | For example , though the government gives subsidies to companies to urge them to employ older workers , there may not be many who have the necessary skills . |
| 322 | For those who are not able to afford them , they will not be able to enjoy the benefits . |
| 323 | Elderly who were not able to save enough will face the problem of making ends meet when they are old . |
| 324 | Reducing funds on this growing age group could cause these problems as the attention paid towards them would then be cut . |
| 325 | If their savings ran out , they would face difficulty acquiring income as their abated bodies may prevent them from finding a job . |
| 326 | They perceived public spending on the aged as a form of liability to a country because such spending brings no future benefits to the country , and may cause the country to neglect its development in essential areas , such as infrastructure and transport facilities , which serve as a pulling force for foreign investments . |
| 327 | Although delaying retirement can help the elderly to accumulate some wealth , reality speaks differently when it comes to elderly people . |
| 328 | This will inevitably constrict public spending on the aged due to a smaller pool of resources . |
| 329 | On the other hand , as mentioned , in this economy driven world , it would be impractical to focus our finances on the people who are no longer efficient in what they used to do . |
| 330 | From a pragmatic standpoint , a majority of the elderly are unable to contribute to economic growth due to deteriorating health conditions which come naturally with aging . |
| 331 | [ 1 ] Therefore , despite the benefits economic growth could bring to the elderly , it is still necessary to set aside a portion of the government spending for the elderly as a safeguard to protect their basic interests and not only to rely on the revenue earned to help the aged . |
| 332 | Even if the government were to invest heavily in the aging problem , the government will not reap any rewards and more money will have to be allocated to this sector . |
| 333 | Nontheless , some people are concerned about the government 's spending on providing various subsidies for the elderly . |
| 334 | However , most treatments do not come cheap and chronic illnesses , especially , take a toll on their finances as people live longer . |
| 335 | This drastic change can cause the elderly to be unable to keep up with the pace of the society . |
| 336 | Uncontrolled government spending on healthcare or infrastructure for the aged could result in other groups of needy people not getting their share of the government 's financial aid . |
| 337 | If the public spending on the aged is not limited , people will tend to depend on the government more . |
| 338 | Such manpower shortages are examples of how an ageing population would have a detrimental effect on the economy . |
| 339 | Although this problem can not be solved in a short period of time , theses policies and developments will help to curb the problems of an aging population . |
| 340 | However , some may argue that the elderly may not be fit enough to work and there are doubts if the older workforce can achieve a similar level of efficiency that is expected from the younger workers . Therefore this makes it more difficult for the elderly to look for a job . |
| 341 | It is not feasible for a country to spend more on the elderly when funds have a possibility of being decreased in future years . |
| 342 | Suppose a country were to provide full support to the elderly , other developments like education and public housing would be costly . |
| 343 | If the expenditure towards the elderly is limited , many will be left in a lurch and thus among the elderly . |
| 344 | An aging population has caused an increase in public spending and decline in Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) , owing to a decrease in the people who are highly productive . |
| 345 | On the other hand , if this same amount of money is to be spent on the aged , there will be no economic benefits generated by them for the country . |
| 346 | This creates undue stress and negative psychological impact on the aged , at the same time a social stigma on them and also inadequate income . |
| 347 | Either other areas of public spending have to receive less funding , or taxes have to be raised to allow for more funds to be spent on the aged . |
| 348 | Although this will create a sense of dependency on the government , it is an unavoidable situation where the government needs to care for its citizens . |
| 349 | Moreover , from a pragmatic point of view , public spending on the aged would yield little or no returns . |
| 350 | Firstly , current government policies are not easing the ageing process because they are limited to a specified group of the aged population . |
| 351 | This indicates a lack of resources , whether monetary or non monetary to support the large numbers of elderly . |
| 352 | If nothing were to be done to protect them , the aged will continue to suffer and the situation may even worsen in the next few decades . |
| 353 | Increasing elderly spending has shrunk the budgets of many countries , especially the developed ones where the problem of aging population is more vivid . |
| 354 | Some may not cope well in life and would need more financial help than others . |
| 355 | If public spending on low income groups is limited , there would be fewer elderly who could benefit from government aid . |
| 356 | There may not be enough jobs for both young and old people , especially in an economic downturn like today . |
| 357 | Lastly , the policy to raise the retirement age in developed nations does not serve as a long-term solution in meeting the needs of the elderly . |
| 358 | In brief the government has insufficient funds to fulfill all wants and needs of the aged population . |
| 359 | There is no denying the fact that each country has a limited budget , so it can not afford to spend too much on the elderly because it also has to spend on other areas of the country 's development . |
| 360 | Once an old person catches such diseases , or her life would turn out to be very inconvenient . |
| 361 | Yet , despite such incentives being given out , many companies still choose to retrench those who fall under the older age group during the retrenchment period claiming that the elderly are less productive and effective . |
| 362 | As more elderly people retire from the work field , this causes a lack of productivity in the workforce as well as a labour shortage . |
| 363 | Aging population is a social problem that can not be solved over a short span of time . |
| 364 | This is , however , hard to achieve in our present day society as employers , given a choice , tend to avoid hiring the elderly as they are thought to be less productive when compared to younger workers . |
| 365 | These health problems will inevitably affect the productivity of these workers , and the time and resources spent to remedy them are costly , both to the individual and the country . |
| 366 | In conclusion , we have seen that the problems of ageing population could get more serious in the next few years , thus there is a need to design a product that could help to reduce the risks and impacts faced by the ageing population . |
| 367 | Most companies are not willing to employ them as they may be seen to be inefficient because of their disabilities . |
| 368 | National budgets will also come under pressure as a growing number of elderly are supported by relatively fewer younger people . |
| 369 | To simply cut back funds on the grounds that the elderly can no longer yield any economic profits is an irresponsible act . |
| 370 | This was mainly... due to the fact that not every flat was suitable to undergo lift-upgrading project and money was needed from the elderly in order for the projects to take place . |
| 371 | National budgets and economies will come under pressure as growing numbers of elderly persons are supported by relatively fewer younger persons . |
| 372 | Moreover , the elderly usually demand higher salary in exchange for their experience but they can not work as hard as when they were young , whereas the young lack experience and find difficulty in seeking jobs . |
| 373 | All these obstacles show that raising the retirement age does not address the concerns of the elderly well . |
| 374 | However , without limiting the government spending on the aged , the people may become too reliable on the government . |
| 375 | However , despite some elderly being more active than others , most elderly find it difficult to move about . |
| 376 | It is well-known that people 's life expectancy is increasing , leading to the pressure of expenditures on the elderly who are considered to be weak and non-productive . |
| 377 | In the current situation , when the economic crisis is still not over yet and ageism is still present in workplace , old people are less likely to get a good job . |
| 378 | As a result , the national aggregate surplus is offset by the public expenditures on the elderly , which leads to the overall effect of reducing potential growth rate and burdening developments . |
| 379 | If the person holds thoughts that they are old and incapable of achieving great things , then she will succumb to the negative effects of aging . |
| 380 | This may cause the working people to be under pressure and financially strapped . |
| 381 | On the other hand , the increase in public spending may cause dependency , which means that the aged will then totally rely on the workforce and the government for their needs and thus would be exploiting the economy rather than contributing to it . |
| 382 | However , if the state takes care of the aged unconditionally , it would be a policy impossible to maintain in the long run . |
| 383 | The modern society today is imbued with modern values that lead to the ageing population , thus causing some government policies to become ineffective in easing the ageing process . |
| 384 | So even if the funds are allocated to other areas of economic development , with the low morale and faith of the citizens , the fund may not be well utilized . |
| 385 | He is just one of the extreme cases driven to desperation from government 's inability to take care of the aged , many more suffer the same fate . |
| 386 | However this does not solve the aging issue in the long run and in fact it will hinder the progress of a country . |
| 387 | While it may sound true , someone in the society has to sacrifice in order to solve the current ageing problem . |
| 388 | If they do not have sufficient retirement savings , it is very hard to enjoy themselves in their old age . |
| 389 | On the other hand , with little economic growth , the government has no choice but to cut down on benefit programs for the aged . |
| 390 | This problem has happened for a long time due to the lack of investment of Government in young-manpower . |
| 391 | Some reports suggest that investing more money on the elderly will benefit the country more , as compared to investing money on defense , which seems to be a waste of resources . |
| 392 | Moreover , the younger generations will come under heavy pressure due to the disparity ratio support of the aged . |
| 393 | In addition , the current government policies are ineffective in the ageing process . |
| 394 | However , policies implemented by the Singapore government have mostly been unable to relieve the aging problems faced by the country due to their impracticality . |
| 395 | Critics of this proposal have pointed out that the money set aside for this scheme will go to waste if the elderly passed away even before they can utilize them . |
| 396 | Thus , if public spending is limited , the vulnerable group will be economically disadvantaged . |
| 397 | To some individuals , the aged are outdated and relatively less productive as compared to the younger generation because they are not as well aware of the latest technological advancements nor as agile as the young . |
| 398 | In this case , only focusing on public spending does not seem to be the best way to solve the aging problem . |
| 399 | " Hence , this idea of improving safety might not be feasible as it is going to be costly and its entertainment value will be affected . |
| 400 | The national budget and the economy have come under pressure as the government provides heavy subsidies to the elderly in medical , transportation and even social activities . |
| 401 | It may seem true in some way as the elderly have less ability to perform as well as the younger work force . |
| 402 | In addition , with the limited funding on the elderly , people would be encouraged to work harder to accumulate more wealth before they retire . |
| 403 | These goals can not be achieved with most of the budget transferred to take care of the elders in the short run . |
| 404 | The problem of aging population has become worse and worse in many countries . |
| 405 | Most of the elderly still remains vulnerable to the aging process and improvements can be made to create a less painful process . |
| 406 | Under the seniority based-wage system , it is more expensive to hire older workers ; and the perception that older workers are inefficient resulted in low employment rate among the elderly ( Lee , 2009 , para . |
| 407 | If countries are to increase their public spending on the aged further , it may cause the proportion of public spending to be spent on other important areas , such as infrastructure and education , to be lessened . |
| 408 | In comparison , diverting funds to support the aged would appear to have no returns . |
| 409 | To many people , limiting the amount of money to be spent on the elderly can be perceived as being cruel to them . |
| 410 | This will turn the regime of supporting the elderly into a nightmare and burden to the society . |
| 411 | Although it is argued that the 'extra money ' that the elderly possess will be better spent elsewhere , it may not be spent in the most efficient way possible . |
| 412 | This will result in old age dependency on the younger generation and could affect the productivity of the workforce . |
| 413 | Therefore , the smaller labour force will face with many difficulties in supporting the retirees due to the high cost . |
| 414 | Some may think that it is a waste of the taxpayers ' money to fund such a spending as there can be no potential benefits to be reaped . |
| 415 | Some may argue that these researches do not help to ease the aging process because most of the time and money are wasted as the proper solutions are never to be . |
| 416 | On the contrary , as much as solutions are sought to reduce the effects of an ageing population , the rate of replacing the world 's population is not desirable . |
| 417 | The payment system based on the operation of age for a company could make it more expensive to pay for the old workers than the younger ones . |
| 418 | When the health conditions of the elderly people become bad , the financial burden on the young becomes overwhelming . |
| 419 | Increasing public spending on the aged will not be able to solve this problem . |
| 420 | They have problems getting promoted or hired because of their age , and also are afraid of being asked to retire earlier , causing them to have work pressure . |
| 421 | Furthermore , the elderly tend to be less efficient than the younger working adults . |
| 422 | With the government spending huge sums of money on them and these people not even repaying the government by working here and paying taxes here , their departure is a huge blow for the government . |
| 423 | The most common difficulty faced by the elders is finance since they can not earn their livings from their jobs anymore . |
| 424 | The statistics have shown that in time to come , the problems of a fast aging population will be too overwhelming for the society to handle ; therefore , we have to slow down the aging process . |
| 425 | This may cause mass emigration of the working age group which will bring down the nation 's economy and further aggravate the aging population problem . |
| 426 | For example , when a kind of new technology is being marketed , perhaps some people who earn a living by the old technology or products like hand embroidery will suffer market competition and even make huge losses . |
| 427 | Although there are plans to reduce elder dependency , there will still be a small percentage of elders that are not capable of taking care themselves . |
| 428 | As a large working population retires , this will mean that there are less people to work and provide for the retired elderly . |
| 429 | The Government would have to tap into its budget to support the needy aged , resulting in a heavy burden on the working class . |
| 430 | This implies that the financial security for these elderly in the future will be strongly affected if they do not use their pension wisely . |
| 431 | Thus , it might not be easy for the elderly to work and support themselves . |
| 432 | In conclusion , current policies are inadequate in allowing the elderly to retire happily . |
| 433 | Some would argue that policies implemented by the Singapore government might not be fully utilized as some companies find it troublesome to comply with it to employ older workers due to several factors . |
| 434 | As economy develops , the signs of an aging population worsen . |
| 435 | Therefore , unless the employability problem is resolved , the increase in retirement age might worthnothing to most of the elderly that are now unemployed . |
| 436 | Aging is an inevitable process which is often a slow and painful process for the society in general . |
| 437 | Governments have wasted significant amount of public pensions on the aged due to inaccurate estimations and inefficient use of funds . |
| 438 | However , the higher cost of living today makes such obligations quite impossible . |
| 439 | However , educating the old will require a considerate amount of money as most of their minds are not as active as the younger ones and they will take a longer time to absorb new knowledge . |
| 440 | Some fear that with government aid , some may in turn become over-reliant and fail to be self-sufficient . |
| 441 | While these may seem to be plausible policies , they still cause the elderly to feel uneasy in the society . |
| 442 | The aging process is not a pleasant process for humans to go through . |
| 443 | Health care for the elderly can cost up to thousands of dollars and being strained financially , adult children simply can not afford it . |
| 444 | Most elderly face mental problems when they retire , because they receive money from their saving plan or government and simply do not know what to do , they tend to use up all the money after several years . |
| 445 | However , unlimited public spending on the aged could encourage the elderly to be less self-sufficient or more dependent . |
| 446 | Although these policies seek to ease the aging process , they are starting to show signs of weakness when viewed from a long term perspective . |
| 447 | Even though they have worked for many years , they might have little or no savings because they might not know how to manage their money . |
| 448 | With the presence of the aged in the workforce , the latter will not be competitive . |
| 449 | Even if they work , their meager income is insufficient to support themselves , especially with the high inflation rates now . |
| 450 | Despite the decreasing productivity of elder workers , they possess vast experience and energy . It will be a waste not to tap their strengths and abilities so that they can contribute meaningfully to their family and the society . |
| 451 | Since such aging issues can not be resolved instantaneously , technological means and governmental policies should be implemented over time to reduce negative societal and economical impacts brought by the aging trend . |
| 452 | However once the elderly become over dependent on technology , they will be at a loss once the device is unable to respond to expectations . |
| 453 | In future , the ageing population might worsen if low fertility rate persisted . |
| 454 | Without that support , the elderly may start to spend time reflecting on their past , remembering disappointments and that stage of life may turn into a time of despair and loneliness , with only little positive meaning in life . |
| 455 | For example , companies might think that it is a burden to hire an elderly worker , as he or she might not be able to cope with the stress and workload . |
| 456 | However , these breakthroughs hardly ease the lives of the elderly . |
| 457 | However , among all this possible solutions , most of them are not suitable to be implemented due to high cost and the availability in large scale . |
| 458 | However , to help these people become less vulnerable , it is not so good when they are already aged . |
| 459 | Singapore 's policy to tackle the ageing issue has so far achieved limited success but the side-effects caused by their implementations have greater adversities which outweigh the benefits . |
| 460 | Unlimited public spending on the aged would only pose a long-term problem for the nation . |
| 461 | If the account holder does not have a stable job , he will find that he has a hard time trying to reach the minimum amount thus also finding himself unable to use or even see his own savings physically . |
| 462 | However , governments should not limit the spending on the aged as those solutions will not solve the current situation of the aging population that countries are facing . |
| 463 | However , too much help from the government can lead to its people being too dependent on the government . |
| 464 | As the percentage of the aged increases , the percentage of people generating income in the country diminishes . |
| 465 | Though the elders have a lot of experience , they may not work as effectively and make decisions as quickly as the younger generations do . |
| 466 | In other words , the new policy to cut off public expenditure on the aged can not be implemented in this condition . |
| 467 | However , it is often argued that such policies could actually stifle competition between the current working group and the elderly . |
| 468 | Unfortunately , these policies have played a little role to ease the aging process for most of the elderly . |
| 469 | Such a significant trend has led many to worry about the problems associated with this phenomenon , hence the government has initiated certain policies and developments aimed at helping the elderly . |
| 470 | When lesser amount of government spending is given to the aged , the individuals and families will end up paying more . |
| 471 | Therefore , in order to introduce this policy , the government has increased the retirement age of working persons , and has given fewer incentives to fund their after-retirement life , so that they will prolong their working life . |
| 472 | When they reach a tenable age for retirement , they will be unable to pay for their medical bills since they do not have adequate savings . |
| 473 | In time to come , the burden will fall back on the working population through less direct and more expensive means ; which is liable for higher taxes . |
| 474 | Easing the aging process by establishing policies that solve explicit problems has proved to be inadequate . |
| 475 | This will not be possible if a limitation on public spending on the aged is imposed . |
| 476 | Critics of this position point out that the elderly themselves impose financial hardship on the working population . |
| 477 | Even though many countries are facing aging population , there is a still a limit on what can be done . |
| 478 | The elderly tend to think that they are incompetent and useless as they no longer contribute to society . |
| 479 | In contrast , the western welfare states that fund heavily on social expenditure have hindered the functioning of the private market . |
| 480 | If we just neglect them , there are many other complications that might lead to facts that seems that the aged are really of no use . |
| 481 | Some might argue that the seniors are old and fragile to be productive . |
| 482 | Some might say that it is immoral to deprive the aged of the help they need . |
| 483 | Individuals do not see the value in retaining these older workers in the workforce . |
| 484 | Firstly , The elderly seem to be burdensome for young generations for the young must share their budgets to take care of the elderly |
| 485 | Even if the economy improves , the expenses of the elderly will just keep on getting higher ; it seems to only benefit the government and not the elderly . |
| 486 | Nevertheless , a small portion of the aging population is still experiencing much difficulty in the process of aging . |
| 487 | When expenditure exceeds income due to a rising aging population , certain expenses have to be reduced . |
| 488 | There is a limit to the economic growth brought about by delaying the retirement age of the elderly . |
| 489 | However , the current research and development/policies unfortunately have provided more of a hindrance than an aid for the elderly . |
| 490 | Some people may say that old people 's working ability starts to decrease when they approach retirement age . |
| 491 | Although the trend of a fast ageing population is unlikely to be reversed in a short term ; much can still be done to buffer its negative impact on society . |
| 492 | However , this situation might not be necessarily true because if governments focus more of their funds onto the economic sector , the increase in capital as a result of rapid economic growth allows governments to create social programs for these more disadvantaged elderly people . |
| 493 | Last but not least , opponents of this position would argue that senior citizens are also our own citizens , they need care from the government and the strategies above take many times to complete when the senior citizens can not wait anymore . |
| 494 | The aging population would need more public spending as their dependents would be smaller and heavily burdened . |
| 495 | This will be reflected in their bad habits like over-working and also harm their mental health , which will shorten their lifespan . |
| 496 | They fear that old people would not respond well enough to the fast changing world . |
| 497 | It is well known that for the aged people , jobs are really hard to find . |
| 498 | However , these current government policies have not helped to ease the ageing process . |
| 499 | These examples , with the fact that spending on the aged population will not bring any benefit have proven that it is better to limit and reallocate the spending for old age . |
| 500 | And if this problem persists , it will gradually become a roadblock for the future advancement of society . |
| 501 | However , we have to be realistic and accept the fact that the elderly have very little contributions in terms of economy as they are not able to join the work force as they are too old to work . |
| 502 | This situation is not getting any better as more of the population ages . |
| 503 | To ease the aging process , many countries ' public spending will rise steadily as a share of GDP , leaving these countries in a great financial burden ( Joumard , 2004 ) . |
| 504 | If the budget over emphasizes on the aged , this will result in insufficient funding for Education , greatly compromising the academic intelligence of the younger generation . |
| 505 | Without limiting it , there will be over dependence on the government , worsening the current situation . |
| 506 | Some of the policies that are implemented are simply not effective because they are not fully exploited by the elderly population in Singapore . |
| 507 | If public spending for the aged is not well utilised for the next few years , Singapore will be having problems when the time comes . |
| 508 | As a result , the elderly , who depend on the fund , would have the mindset of not saving up for an emergency or the thought of having longer working periods . |
| 509 | The country 's finances will be exhausted as more elderly ask for financial help from the government to cover their medical fees and basic needs . |
| 510 | Also , the numbers of working people supporting the aged have reduced thus putting strain on them . |
| 511 | The social impact would be that people have to work harder because the younger generations have to be more productive to make up for the elderly 's low productivity . |
| 512 | However , older workers are usually less productive than imported foreign talents , though employers may compromise on a small portion of existing aged employees . |
| 513 | Many employers often associate old-age with lower productivity . |
| 514 | For them , using such new technologies is either impossible , or it will create further financial problems . |
| 515 | For instance , in the work place , some young adults develop prejudice and discrimination against the older people because they feel that the elderly are less efficient and no longer productive . |
| 516 | For example , the aged may face discrimination when looking for jobs as compared to the young and also , the old age may receive less all-rounded treatment in the healthcare sector based on the stereotype that they are in the natural process of aging and that they are less likely to recover . |
| 517 | Some people may think that many people nowadays do not have much patience with the elderly . |
| 518 | Last but not least , an aging population brings about a shrinking workforce and a significant decline in real GDP . |
| 519 | Singapore 's economy might be in danger due to lack of productivity , and the elderly might find difficulty in coping with the aging process . |
| 520 | ( Central Provident Fund [ CPF ] Board , 2009 ) . Critics of this plan have debated that it is unsuitable as high costs of living makes it difficult for people to save more of their earnings for pensions . |
| 521 | Nevertheless , if the government leaves the elderly who are fighting old age alone without care , it would be too cruel of the government . |
| 522 | For these reasons , from the aging population point of view , economic improvement has n't eased the aging process . |
| 523 | This of aged and working populations affects the economic productivity to a great extent . |
| 524 | This problem not only happens in the UK . People tend to lose motivation to work or save once they have enough pension to spend . |
| 525 | Although getting their financial support might be a challenge , it is something they have to overcome in order to progress . |
| 526 | Not only that , the biggest problem is that they will have no income to support themselves . |
| 527 | Actually , the problem of more population getting aged does not lie in the demographic change , but in the fact that the productivity of the nation will decline . |
| 528 | Others may argue that the aged work and learn slower compared to a working adult , however , we must also consider the difference in their salary and job scope . |
| 529 | The country 's social stability will inevitably be disrupted if such a policy is applied forcibly without any consent from the elderly . |
| 530 | Government must not forget to consider whether they are putting too heavy a burden on the current generation . |
| 531 | Many older citizens are unable to keep up with the pace of changes taking place in the current society and are usually slower when it comes to learning and adapting to new technologies and innovations . |
| 532 | An extension in the working lives of the elderly , can bring negative effects . |
| 533 | Furthermore , the process of ageing itself can be a traumatic affair . |
| 534 | Therefore , the positive effect of an increase in wages could be offset by or even be insufficient to keep up with the cost of living for the middle and lower income groups . |
| 535 | Some politicians may argue that although the proportion of elderly people is still small now , it will grow larger if the problem of aging population is not dealt with now . |
| 536 | However , it must be recognized that these polices have their limitations and they have left out a significant portion of the aged in the lurch . |
| 537 | If the government can give out the pensions according to the financial need , the amount of money spent on the elderly will not climb rapidly even if the aging population increases at an incredible speed . |
| 538 | This is because of the consequences related to doing otherwise such as pressurizing the national budget as well as the workforce . |
| 539 | If this vicious cycle continues , the future generation will suffer . |
| 540 | Furthermore , the younger generation has to fulfil a moral obligation towards the older generation , and capping public spending limits their abilities to do so . |
| 541 | However , in reality , it is quite difficult to get a job after retirement and the quality of job is not enough to make a living . |
| 542 | This alarming statistic has rang a bell about the importance of the public to spend their wealth on the needs of the aged . |
| 543 | Despite the effort , employment level of the aged still remain low as the elderly continue to face discrimination at work . |
| 544 | Some people think that the government has an obligation to help the elderly by providing financial aid . |
| 545 | They need money to support their increased health care costs because they have already used up their savings . |
| 546 | Some elderly individuals may feel left behind by the pace of technological change . |
| 547 | Therefore , the policy is unfeasible and unable to fulfill the needs of the elderly . |
| 548 | However , some people can not live without the pension from the government . |
| 549 | But the controversy of the ability of the elderly to generate more wealth in comparison to the remunerative younger working adults had deterred many private companies . |
| 550 | Though the perpetual resources are always there for us , their use may be constrained by the lack of technology for control and delivery , and also by investment and willingness to pay . |
| 551 | Despite numerous efforts to ease the process of ageing , government agencies seem to forget the basic survival requirements for the elderly . |
| 552 | Even if they have the motivation , their ideas are unlikely to come true due to the lack of funding from the government . |
| 553 | The aged not only require financial support , because of their inability to sustain themselves , but they also require emotional and social support . |
| 554 | Furthermore , emotional distress has impacted the elderly significantly . |
| 555 | In conclusion , the aging problem is getting more serious , therefore , we have to pay more attention to this topic so that the problem can be eased . |
| 556 | Very often , the elderly would be left feeling sad , weak and even outcast even with these current research and development . |
| 557 | As a result , the elderly are often rejected when searching for a job due to their inadequate skill set . |
| 558 | As a result , the savings and the income of the elderly may be used up quickly or large portion of their finances have to be spent on health care services . |
| 559 | If not , the amount of the spending given to the aged will be a bottomless pit . |
| 560 | These men have to cope with their miserable sunset years with limited pension , and this is where the pension system 's imbalance lies . |
| 561 | The fundamental problem is that the states fail to realize the underlying social problems which contribute to the stressful ageing process . |
| 562 | In addition to getting support from adult children , it is equally important to provide more employment opportunities or put off the mandatory retirement age for the elderly , which is also a good method to as people tend to live longer than before . |
| 563 | However more attention should also be paid as the speed of aging population may exceed the speed of solving curbing aging policies . |
| 564 | Firstly , increasing public spending on the aged will only make the aged dependent on the government . |
| 565 | Aging process causes difficulties in movement |
| 566 | This change has made a significant change to the residents , especially elders who are physically weak . |
| 567 | This results in severe financial stress for the working population . |
| 568 | The upgrading process might cause inconveniences to the residents but this is a trade off that they have to bear with for a better tomorrow . |
| 569 | Many people might however , disagree that government should limit the public spending on aged . |
| 570 | Consider if an elderly person has been sick for a long time and his/her spending has already reached the limit ; are we going to tell him to die because we will not provide him with anymore money ? |
| 571 | The psychological needs of these elderly are not met especially when the problems of old age are catching up with them and they need someone to share their thoughts with . |
| 572 | The human resources of many developed countries are predicted to shrink as a hefty portion of the workforce is edging towards retirement . |
| 573 | People sometimes do not want the other side to see their tired face . |
| 574 | This shows that the suggestion is not going to work as it will cause problems for the elderly who depend on public s. At the same time it not help to solve aging issues . |
| 575 | The person would be unable to purchase insurance since they would cost the insurance company more money than the company had bargained for ( Henry T. 2005 , ) Moreover , employers would not want to hire them as the employee 's health problem would have an undesirable effect on the company 's productivity , such as , costing the company more money on the employees ' frequent sick leaves and medical reimbursements ( Henry T. 2005 ) . |
| 576 | Growing older is often associated with deteriorating health , economic declination and emotional problems . |
| 577 | Besides , there will also be psychological effects of limiting public spending on the aged too . |
| 578 | limited resource and additional financial cost ) in employing older workers . |
| 579 | Adherents who starkly believe that public spending should be focused on the aged often claim that the elderly people are not financially protected once they are retired from their workplaces . |
| 580 | The ageing issues will not be solved in a short period of time . |
| 581 | A technology that looks seemingly practical and useful to our everyday lives may not function well in the society . |
| 582 | Despite these economic constraints , there is still an urgent need for the government to increase the amount of children per household to replace the huge retiring labor force in order to maintain the economic growth within a country . |
| 583 | This implies that there will be a labour shortage of experienced workers who are able to contribute to the labour force after they have retired . |
| 584 | On the contrary , implementating subsidy system requires heavy tax foundation which will be a burden on the working society . |
| 585 | In conclusion , the two policies have shown their ineffectiveness in easing the problems of ageing population . |
| 586 | Some think that spending money on the aged is like throwing money down the drain since it is part and parcel of life for them to grow old , age and die . |
| 587 | It is because employers think that old people will reduce the productivity of their company . |
| 588 | Furthermore , this strategy does not solve anything since the money diverted to other sectors indirectly become the money spent on the elderly . |
| 589 | As a result , their savings and incomes are exhausted quickly . |
| 590 | Excessive public spending only adds to the comfort of the aging population and does not effectively benefit the economy . |
| 591 | It is very hard for them to earn enough money for themselves . |
| 592 | Critics of science , technolological and social policies ' for an aging population argue that the elderly could live a satisfatory life in terms of the material ; however , it is hard for them to be happy since the society does not favor old people who do not fit its fast pace . |
| 593 | Another factor that policy makers should consider before deciding to set boundaries on public spending on the aged is issues related to moral standards whose decline has been witnessed in recent years in many countries . |
| 594 | Restriction on the public spending may raise ethical debates ; after all we have the responsibility of taking care of the aged to credit them for past contributions to society . |
| 595 | On top of the increasing cost of living , the younger generations have to bear the high expenses of taking care of the elderly . |
| 596 | This might result in a multiplier effect of people with less education earning less and being less healthy in a way . |
| 597 | Pressure on the working population will be exceptionally high which may in turn cause social problems . |
| 598 | These highly active grandchildren may become a burden on the aged physically . |
| 599 | People tend to be emotionally unstable when they reach old age . |
| 600 | These actions are superficial and inadequate as they do not directly deal with the problems related to old age ; and therefore are unable to ease the aging process . |
| 601 | In addition , many employers are reluctant to hire older labours either as skilled or unskilled workers. . |
| 602 | Extending the retirement age reduces expenditure to provide for the aged . |
| 603 | If fertility rate does not increase , these issues will worsen , as the average age of the population will increase . |
| 604 | From Malul findings , the elderly are counted as part of the workforce . However , with technology so advanced these days , the elderly in the workface may be faced with hiccups as they are not well skilled in certain aspects of the technology . |
| 605 | Last but not least , reducing public spending on the aged helps to stress filial obligation . |
| 606 | The aging population has many problems such as over-dependency on the younger generation , as well as the increase in national budget on health care . |
| 607 | Nevertheless , the strategies taken do not seem to help ease the aging process . |
| 608 | Merely depending on legislation will not help to improve the attitudes of the society towards the elderly significantly . |
| 609 | However , focusing solely on the aged population would not be the best approach . |
| 610 | There are many conflicts regarding the welfare of the elderly , for example , the government has been blamed for neglecting the emotional needs of the elderly . |
| 611 | Firstly elderly people are less productive than young people and most of them are retired or unemployed . |
| 612 | However , in today 's society , employers do not like to employ older people . |
| 613 | The reason for the fear is basically due to the fact that aging makes us fragile . |
| 614 | Thus it is incapable in helping to relieve the financial burden of the elderly . |
| 615 | Ultimately , the issue of a graying population can not be solved immediately . |
| 616 | Among the different age groups , the elderly population is at the highest risk for adverse events , such as falling down at home . |
| 617 | The implications that come with changes tend to be too much for most governments to handle ; yet only through changes will the possibilities of a better future emerge . |
| 618 | One reason for this could be that employers may have the misguided belief that they have to spend more in order to ensure the working environment is safe for these employees . |
| 619 | Moreover , old people are subjected to illnesses which may wipe out all their savings . |
| 620 | Last but not least , when public spending is limited on the aged , the youth must work harder . Therefore the economy will improve |
| 621 | This claim strongly emphasizes the lack of public spending on elderly , needless to say , the idea to set boundaries on public spending on them . |
| 622 | In effect , UD does not help in the development of better accessibility for people who are aged . |
| 623 | Some people may argue that although IT would not grow impatient with the old , the old may , in contrast , grow impatient with IT . |
| 624 | However , it does not cause the elderly to feel happier or even help to relieve the financial needs for medical treatment or basic necessities . |
| 625 | Thus , even though the adoption of the immigrant policy has helped to ease the ageing process , it might not be the best policy to conquer the problem . |
| 626 | Having a superior elderly care system does not mean having great success in governing a country . |
| 627 | Therefore , helping the aged on financial issues could not be the priority in a country 's policies . |
| 628 | Surveys show that many elderly individuals are prone to suicide because they can not bear the overwhelming effects of ill health and the feeling of loneliness . |
| 629 | All these ideas are good but in today 's world , it is actually not feasible in helping the elderly to cope with aging process . |
| 630 | However , the current healthcare structure may lead to an over dependence on the government for their own health . |
| 631 | Therefore , this will lessen the feeling within them that aging is a helpless yet painful process . |
| 632 | If the government continues to excessively worry about the senior citizens , it will be a good example to rely on the government . |
| 633 | However , I think that this is an of the elderly issue and is not practical . |
| 634 | Firstly , limiting public spending on the aged will definitely cause disparity on the principle of democracy itself , where the aged are denied their freedoms and rights to be supported by the government although they are the rightful citizens who play the role of voting in the government . |
| 635 | Elderly individuals , who lack access and training needed to familiarize themselves with modern technology like the internet , may find themselves at a disadvantage . |
| 636 | Special care that they receive from their family members and the society makes them feel old , and indirectly contributes to their emotional problems . |
| 637 | Thus , negative results are achieved , with neither the aging population nor the country 's economy benefitting from it . |
| 638 | However , as the social environment changes , the initial virtual technology developed has become insufficient to meet increased social needs . |
| 639 | When this cycle carries on , it will create a social problems as the disease has now been spread into the society . |
| 640 | Research generally targets the constellation of problems faced by the elderly , such as declining health - growing physically weak and feeble , emotional problems - living life in a shade of negativity , and social problems - feeling foreign and out of place in the society that they have once experienced . |
| 641 | For example , a person who has a risk of getting an inherited disease might not be able to inherit his family business for fear that he will not be able to withstand the tough job requirements . |
| 642 | This leads to another point , which is that the spending of elderly will reduce |
| 643 | All these prove the failure of the CPF scheme in providing a secure future life for most of the elderly . |
| 644 | Hence , technology can be used as a tool to increase functionalities of the ageing adult but not able to provide the emotional support and care . |
| 645 | Most of the companies are likely to avoid elderly employment as the elderly are often perceived to have lack of relevant knowledge and expertise for them to work or continue to work in the company . |
| 646 | Many are of the view that the government is neglecting the older generation . |
| 647 | However , the jobs offered to the oldsters are very limited and they are not able to take up any jobs due to their low educational level and lack of capabilities . |
| 648 | In conclusion , the most advanced technologies may not be suitable in a certain condition . |
| 649 | This increases burdens on the younger workforce as they have to bear the cost of healthcare services required by the elderly . |
| 650 | However , it is increasingly difficult to forecast such growth with the current volatile and gloomy economy worldwide . |
| 651 | Aging population is now the uprising enigma that alarms the nation of its increasing elderly dependency and diminution of productivity . |
| 652 | In the face of such a situation , spending on the aged is of least priority . |
| 653 | Nevertheless , despite this solution , the elderly are still struggling to cope with the latest technology . |
| 654 | " ( 1 ) During this process , an elderly will experience deterioration in memory , slower reflexes and mobility and strong desire to have familial support . |
| 655 | As subsidy is reduced , the family will have to pay more . |
| 656 | There will not be an overnight improvement in our citizens ' attitudes and behaviours towards taking care of the elderly in the society . |
| 657 | Lastly , the grieving process ( Old Adult Mental Wellbeing , Health Promotion Board , year ) is part and parcel of the aging process whereby for the elderly , it is more common for them to lose their family members and friends in their old age and thus , this makes each single loss even more unbearable . |
| 658 | The fertility decline and the expected shrinking population will subsequently increase the dependency ratio. . |
| 659 | The efforts made by our leaders though commendable , are not sufficient to ensure the elderly remain interested |
| 660 | Furthermore , these findings fail to address the exigent issues of aging societies presently facing . |
| 661 | This will decrease the number of elderly persons that require funding from the government to get by in their old age . |
| 662 | Besides , some older workers cost more than younger workers due to the seniority payment system . |
| 663 | If a legal act is required to force people to support their parents , does it mean that our moral values have deteriorated ? |
| 664 | If people are not afforded to pay the fees , they can not receive treatment also . |
| 665 | As people age , some of them are unsatisfied with their appearance . |
| 666 | In contrast , those who are less successful in their life will get comparably less pension to support them . |
| 667 | Without inculcating social responsibility to both the aged and the young , these propositions may only lead to a paradoxical effect . |
| 668 | It is also mentioned that since the number of elderly people is increasing , the burden of caring is also increasing for young people . |
| 669 | This aging process has made old people suffer from functional and mental disabilities , causing them to feel inferior and being alienated . |
| 670 | Angelique Chan mentioned that at present , employers tend to be hesitant about hiring older workers and this has led to public debates on this issue ( This affects blue collared workers most extensively , and also happens to be the group of elders that have the highest dependency on the society due to their lower savings . |
| 671 | The sense of isolation and loneliness among homebound and single elderly might result in mental illness and social problems . |
| 672 | With an aging population , the ratio of people to proportion being able to work gradually reduces . |
| 673 | Most people will despair and are reluctant to undergo treatments . |
| 674 | Older workers find it difficult to compete with the younger applicants who are youthful and demand lesser pay . |
| 675 | Furthermore , polices such as pension may give rise to dependency and complacency . |
| 676 | However , this is not always true because technology can overcome some obstacles that they face during the aging process . |
| 677 | With less contribution to the fund in their early working days , they will obtain less after they retire . |
| 678 | This will appeal to people who do not like the signs of aging to be displayed on their body . |
| 679 | Often , the handicapped can hardly make a stand in applying for a job if they are to compete with the others because of their physical weaknesses and lack of living skills . |
| 680 | According to Stansfeld ( 1998 ) , loneliness , lack of social support and isolation are identified as major risk factors that when combined can increase the risk of stressful life events in old age . |
| 681 | Public spending should be limited , as it can not be used as a long-term solution to help the aged . |
| 682 | Besides , the old had no chance to prepare for the future by saving . |
| 683 | Although critics argue that technological inventions have helped to ease the aging process , this however , may not be the case . |
| 684 | Public spending on the aged can be reduced by increasing the retirement age , or stressing filial obligation . |
| 685 | It is precisely because there is not enough money input , a lot of good ideas can not be implemented . |
| 686 | If they can not meet the requirements , they will not get promoted or get enough salary they are supposed to get . |
| 687 | However , this policy executed by the government did not attain its goal when many of the retirees chose to take their pension in a lump sum at retirement . |
| 688 | This will tax and stress heavily on the small working population . |
| 689 | In addition , some of those expenses incurred to support the elderly will end up getting shifted back to the public sector through less direct and more expensive means . |
| 690 | Employers tend to discriminate against elderly frequently as they are deemed to be vulnerable and unproductive . |
| 691 | One country with a great influx of immigrants may become unstable , since cultures are different and cultural fusion needs a long period of time . |
| 692 | Young people are now faced with the insurmountable task of supporting an ever increasing population of the aged . |
| 693 | The aging population problem can practically stop the turning wheels of economy as the ones who turn the wheel are the industrial and commercial sector of a country , which needed youths as its workforce . |
| 694 | One may also argue that he has a moral obligation now to weight if he should even have children , fearing passing the risk to the next generation . |
| 695 | Old age has been always been associated with poor health and loneliness as people reach the final stage of their life . |
| 696 | Older workers are often viewed as less dynamic and less creative as compared to the younger workers and thus they are less preferred . |
| 697 | However , even if the elderly were to become inactive from the working society and rest at home , it does not mean that he/she will recover faster . |
| 698 | Also , the needs of an elderly are not only limited to financial ones but also emotional and physical ones as well . |
| 699 | An old woman in this survey said it is not very convenient for her to use the wheelchair at home and her eyes feel tired very often . |
| 700 | The society now has this notion that the old would eventually become obsolete , exhausted and unproductive . |
| 701 | Such trends will cause a drastic decrease in the world 's population by 2050 if the fertility rates do not increase substantially . |
| 702 | It may be technically sound but may not be well received by the end users . |
| 703 | It is regrettable that when we think of old age , what automatically comes to mind are visions of loneliness and neglect . |
| 704 | 9 out of 10 employers would be reluctant to hire old people because they are afraid that they can not work as efficiently ( which is always not the case ) . |
| 705 | By stressing on filial obligations and their duty to the aged , we can reduce the fiscal cost of elder dependency . |
| 706 | This would lead to emotional problems , where an elderly feels like the " leftover of society " . |
| 707 | the financial , social and emotional needs of the elderly . |
| 708 | In order to combat the shrinking workforce caused by the rapid ageing population and a declining fertility rate , the Health authorities must first gear up their medical field and prepare for an aging population . |
| 709 | Thus , this gives an impression to the aged that they are redundant and useless in the society . |
| 710 | Firstly , the majority of the elderly population are often not in touch with the newer technologies and most of them are unable to handle modern gadgets . |
| 711 | It shall be handled with wise policy planning but not putting in as much country wealth to take care of the welfare of the elderly as possible . |
| 712 | In conclusion , it seems that we are still not ready for an increasing old age population yet . |
| 713 | They may not take the initiative to save their money for future uses . |
| 714 | It is true that relatives are often in deep grief when knowing one of their relatives is suffering from an illness . |
| 715 | But this will definitely raise serious moral problems in society , which would buffer the development of the society . |
| 716 | However , there is still an increase in the number of elderly suicide cases despite much psychological help from social groups such as The Singapore Action Group for Elderly and many others . |
| 717 | However , all the anxiety and pressure may be unnecessary because of the unreliability of such technology . |
| 718 | Trading the future for the past is simply not a practical choice . |
| 719 | The means tests begin to reduce the pension at fixed levels of income and/or wealth and the pension declines linearly to zero as income and/or wealth increases.1 |
| 720 | Earlier , those who had reached a ripe old age held an enviable place in society , but now they are only seen as senile , frail and useless old people . |
| 721 | The effectiveness is in doubt , human rights are invaded and there could be abuse of this technology . |

| 75 | In conclusion , public spendings on the elderly should be limited due to the social problems which may arise from the lack of limited resources , the huge cost of the these public spending and the sustainability of the spendings . |
| 76 | By limiting the resources used on the aged , other developments of the country can be better financed in order to drive the country forward . |
| 77 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited so that economic growth can be sustained , societal problems faced by the communities can be solved and other essential policies can be sustained . |
| 78 | This is because the country has to limit its spending on the aged while expanding other areas of development . |
| 79 | These are some reasons why limiting public spending on the aged could contribute to the development of the country . |
| 80 | Governments should limit their spending on the elderly as public spending may cause problems . |
| 81 | However , limitations should be set on the public spending on the aged to a large extent in order to promote the country 's development in other areas . |
| 82 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited to a certain extent , not only to avoid the high possibility of economic crisis in the near future , but also to divert the resources to other areas such as education and infrastructure development , which are essential for the economic growth of a country . |
| 83 | However , there are many ways to help the elderly to take care of themselves and public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 84 | The idea of limiting the spending on the aged and diverting the money to the improving of the education system and creating of more job opportunities is to prevent the over-reliance of the aged on the government , eliminating the wrong perception of " I will still survive with this 'free ' money from the government " . |
| 85 | Public spending on the aged should be limited as money should be spent on other areas such as defense and public infrastructure as they play more important roles in a country 's future development . |
| 86 | Public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be used on those areas most in need . |
| 87 | To sum up , it is necessary for the government to limit the spending on the elderly so that the economy of the country can be developed more quickly and the effectiveness of the public pensions can be increased . |
| 88 | There is a suggestion that governments should limit expenditures on the aged so that they will have money to spend on other areas to develop the countries . |
| 89 | All in all , public spending on the aged should be limited because putting more effort and money into other sectors of development will turn out to be a better solution to help ease the negative effects of an ageing population . |
| 90 | To ensure that there are sufficient funds for the country 's development , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 91 | The Government should limit public spending so as to prevent over reliance of the elderly on them which in turn causes an even bigger strain on the shrinking work force . |
| 92 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited to an acceptable level where it covers the neediest that are desperate for help , . Most of the other portions of the public fund should be invested into the expansion of the nation to generate more funds for the aged when the investments ripen . |
| 93 | A better solution would be to limit direct spending on the aged and redirect these resources to aid the country 's development . |
| 94 | In other words , public spending on the aged should be limited so that the government can pour in more state funding into other areas of the country 's development such as education , research and development ( R&D ) , urban development and upgrading public transport and housing. . |
| 95 | I agree with the statement that " public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 96 | As more countries are facing the problem of an aging population , it is important to limit public spending on the aged so as to sustain economic growth , solve problems of the communities and support necessary policies for the country . |
| 97 | Too much of the nation 's budget is being spent on aiding the elderly and the government should limit and channel these funds to other more important areas for the country 's development . |
| 98 | It is necessary that the country allocates sufficient funds required for its growth and to maintain its competitive edge . Therefore it is necessary for the country to limit its public spending on the aged . |
| 99 | It is about whether public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 100 | Firstly , public spending on the aged should be limited to ensure higher efficiency in government 's expenditure and to have better allocation of resources . |
| 101 | Although spending on the aged should be limited so that more money can be channelled for the county 's development , we should also make sure that a reasonable portion of the annual budget is set aside for them . |
| 102 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited so that other citizens of the country who are in need can also receive aid . |
| 103 | However , if public spending on the aged is not limited , more financial aid could be given to them , and this in turn will lessen the burden of the younger generation to provide for the elderly . |
| 104 | Though it is important to solve the problem of the graying society , we should limit our public spending in this sector so that we can budget for other aspects of a country 's development , such as the transportation infrastructure . |
| 105 | Even though public spending on the aged has increased due to the shift towards an increasingly population , there should be a limit on this spending so as to divert the assets for developing other areas . |
| 106 | If this public spending on the elderly is not limited , it might have an impact on the countries in terms of national budgets and economies . |
| 107 | In conclusion , I believe that spending on the elderly should be limited because the elderly will be increasingly independent in the future , and because new economic challenges which require more government spending would arise . |
| 108 | If we fail to limit public spending on the aged , the pressure is likely to have an effect on public spending for other priorities , and also affect economic growth . |
| 109 | Thus , it is necessary to limit public spending on the aged due to the negative consequences that would arise from doing otherwise . |
| 110 | Another reason why public spending on the elderly should be limited is that the funds could be diverted into other sectors of the country 's development . |
| 111 | By limiting public spending on the aged and diverting money to other areas of development , government can increase economic growth . |
| 112 | The government should try to accommodate the aging issue while limiting public spending on the aged . |
| 113 | Spending on the aged should be limited so that the money can be diverted to other sectors of the country 's development , like public transportation or the army . |
| 114 | Public spending on the aged should thus be limited so that money can be diverted to areas such as the economy , defence , education and infrastructure in order for the country to develop healthily . |
| 115 | By limiting public spending on the aged , more money can be devoted to the progress of the economy . |
| 116 | In conclusion , there are many reasons why public spending on elderly healthcare should be limited to allow governments to channel the money to other areas of development . |
| 117 | Public spending on the elderly should be limited and individuals should pay for their health care cost within their capacities ; so young people will strive to save for their own lives , which will improve the economics and reduce the elderly dependency on the government . |
| 118 | However , public spending on senior citizens should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development such as taking care of the needy , the unfortunate , the young and infrastructure . |
| 119 | The cost of more suitable healthcare , infrastructure , transportation , housing , pensions and financial aid for the elderly is necessary to help ease the aging process However , spending should be limited as the health and economic value of the elderly decline , and emotional and social problems increase . |
| 120 | In conclusion , public spending on the elderly should be limited , so as to divert the money into other areas such as education and infrastructure which are essential for the country 's economy . |
| 121 | If significant amount of funds is needed in the education sector , there is then a need to limit expenditure on the aged . |
| 122 | So , there should be limited public spending on the aged group so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country , which will give better returns in near future . |
| 123 | Secondly , by limiting the public spending on the aged , the healthcare system with regards to the aged problem will thus have to be changed . This can be viewed as a benefit as the system will be changed to minimize the effect on the country 's economy and the risk of a failed healthcare system . |
| 124 | Although it is essential for the government to spend on the graying population , there are ways to minimize this spending , and this amount can then be used on other areas of the country 's growth and development , such as maintaining our country 's defense and improving the education system . |
| 125 | However , there are some people who state that the public spending on the aged should be limited , so that the money can be spent on other areas . |
| 126 | This spending on the aged is necessary but should be limited in order to balance the spending between the aged and the country 's developments on infrastructure , education and skills upgrading . |
| 127 | Public spending on the aged should be limited to maintain the standard of living of the aged and to reach out to those who are in need of financial aid . |
| 128 | Limiting public spending on the aged is important because it indirectly controls the funds which would be channeled into other areas of a country 's development . |
| 129 | Some may argue that public spending on the aged should be limited so that it will not limit the country 's development . |
| 130 | However , if we limit public spending on the aged , the money can be diverted and used to develop the country in other areas , such as economy and education , which will eventually lead to more advantages for the country . |
| 131 | Hence , for a better future , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 132 | In order to prevent this , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 133 | Therefore , if the government does not limit the spending , more taxpayer 's money will be needed to care for the elderly . |
| 134 | A component of fiscal policy , public spending , should be limited so that self-reliance can be inculcated into the aged through forced savings and so the economy can function better by shifting monetary input to facilitate trade and investments in infrastructure . |
| 135 | However , in some nations , especially developing countries , in order to meet the need of investing in other areas to push the countries forward , the governments cut down the basic expenditures on the aged . |
| 136 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be controlled so that money can also be diverted to other important areas of the country 's development . |
| 137 | Public spending on the elderly should be limited , so money can be better spent on the country 's development , such as technological advancements for the betterment of the nation . |
| 138 | Therefore , public spending on the elderly should be limited and controlled to prevent it from increasing further . |
| 139 | By limiting the spending on the aged , the government will have more funds available to get the country out of the economic downturn . |
| 140 | Public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted into more important areas of the country 's development , mainly health , education and defense . |
| 141 | If public spending on the aged is decreased or minimized and the funds are diverted to other channels to boost economic growth , the country would be a richer society . |
| 142 | In conclusion , this essay shows a favorable view of social spending on the aged should be limited , and money can be diverted to other areas of the development of the country . |
| 143 | This essay argues that the public spending on aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other area of the country 's development . |
| 144 | Hence , we should limit the spending on the elderly , but only to a small extent so as not to create another problem for the elderly which adds on to their already heavy burden . |
| 145 | One should note that setting limits on public spending on the aged reduces the over-dependency of the aged on the government while diverting resources to other areas of development allows the country to prosper and subsequently benefit the whole community , which includes the aged . |
| 146 | to limit spending on the aged means that there will be a larger amount of funds available to spend on infrastructure development . |
| 147 | In my opinion , limited public spending on the aged enables the government to divert the money to other areas for the country 's development . |
| 148 | There should be limited spending on the aged so by that the aged population will work to fulfill their needs . This will strengthen the workforce of the country , and so by limiting spending on the aged one will be able to contribute to the country 's development . |
| 149 | Thus , public spending on the aged could and should be limited as the government had came up with several approaches to help deal with the aging process . |
| 150 | In conclusion , there must be some limitation on the public spending in order to divert the money to other areas which will contribute to the country 's development . |
| 151 | Public spending on the aged , should thus be limited in a country , for the money can be used to further enhance societal growth as a whole , and not just focus solely on this particular age group . |
| 152 | However , if public spending is not limited , the increased expenditure on the elderly will be at the cost of the country 's development . |
| 153 | Hence , the government should limit the aged subsidies in order to stimulate their responsibilities . |
| 154 | If we reasonably limit the spendings on the elderly , we could divert it to other investments , such as education and development of infrastructure , which improve the nation 's competitiveness and global position , it would yield long-term returns and even generate revenue . |
| 155 | Instead , reformed policies should be implemented to limit the public spending for the aged , and meanwhile , to make sure that their welfare is still taken care of . |
| 156 | Public spending on aged can then be reduced much more and more must be placed in other developments that can bring prosperity to the nation and minimize social issues . |
| 157 | In order to change their mindset , the public spending on the aged should be limited in the future , and in turn the money used for other areas of the country 's development like Education , Retraining and Healthcare . |
| 158 | The solution to this problem would be to limit the money spent on the elderly . |
| 159 | By limiting public spending on the aged , some spending can be used to sustain economic growth , which is a key factor to the prosperity of a country . |
| 160 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should be limited as over- provision would cause over-reliance of the elderly and lead to an inefficient and low productive workforce and population . |
| 161 | If public spending on the aged is limited , it would help to reduce the amount of tax people have to pay to support these elderly in the society . |
| 162 | Though there may be uncertainties about the results , it is still important to limit public spending on the aged so that some money can still be diverted to other important areas . |
| 163 | Public spending on the aged should be limited and the government should use the money to invest in the young and other areas of the countries ' development . |
| 164 | The public spending on the aged should be limited as the other domains that would assist the country 's developments are beneficial both to the population and the elderly . |
| 165 | But there is no doubt that public spending on the aged should be limited because it affects the level of funds being diverted to areas that aid the development of a country . However , more importantly , it is the level of limitation that a country has to take note of . |
| 166 | However , leaders must realize that as more money is spent on easing the aging process , future public spending will be limited and this could have a negative impact on future generations . |
| 167 | A reason for the stand that the government should limit spending on the aged is that the aged is not of much use to the society so the government should not concentrate so much on them . |
| 168 | Limiting public spending on the aged should be done to favour other areas of the country 's development . |
| 169 | To conclude , it would be very wise of the government to limit its spending on the aged , and to divert the money to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 170 | However , some people disagree with the government 's policy and claim that there is a need to limit public spending on the aged so thatt the money is diverted to other areas to attain a balanced economic and social development . |
| 171 | In recent years , public spending on the aged has gradually increased , sparking countless discussions about whether public spending on the aged should be limited , so that the money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 172 | In conclusion , it is important to limit the spending on the aged so that people will not be too reliable on the government . |
| 173 | The nation will be affected if this practice continues .Therefore , the government should amend the policy by limiting public spending on the aged so that the money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development which will benefit the nation . |
| 174 | One solution is limiting the money spent on programs for the aged and diverting that money to other areas of a country 's development . |
| 175 | Hence , if the government did not limit its spending on the aged , there would be a budget left for developing the education sector . |
| 176 | Some believe that government spending on the elderly should be controlled and that the money should be used in other aspects of the society such as education , economic growth and public health care . |
| 177 | By limiting the fiscal spending on the elderly , the extra funds created can be diverted to areas such as education , which has potential long-term benefits for a country . |
| 178 | Although problems related to aging population have become increasingly severe , with more priority , governments should limit its spending on the aging population . |
| 179 | Furthermore , when public spending is minimized through self-reliance on the part of individuals to save for their future , the money can instead be put to better use to help those who really need it . |
| 180 | Another reason to limit public spending on the aged is that there is a need to set aside a larger amount of money for economic development especially when there is global economic downturn . |
| 181 | However , the government should limit spending on the aged . |
| 182 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be reduced so that more spending can be diverted to other sector of the country 's development . |
| 183 | Policy maker should limit public spending on the aged and divert money to other country 's development to maintain a balance development of the country . |
| 184 | Based on the possible future benefit brought by various policy options , it is reasonable for us to limit the financial budget for the aged and channel it to other economic perspectives despite the pressing calls for increasing public pensions for the elderly . |
| 185 | Therefore it is critical that we limit government spending on the aged now . |
| 186 | These policies can both limit the money spent on the elderly and ensure the living standard of its people . |
| 187 | Should public spending on the aged be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development ? |
| 188 | In a country , money should be diverted to other areas like defense and infrastructure ; and thus , public spending on the aged should be limited in order to get better returns . |
| 189 | " [ 1 ] Suffice to say , limiting public spending on the elderly must be considered in order to maintain a sustainable economy . |
| 190 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be limited and the money should be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 191 | Most importantly , limiting public money spending on the aged will save a great amount of money for the government . |
| 192 | Critics of this position argue that the burden of the fiscal and economic costs associated with an aging population is so large and substantial that it is unsustainable , and therefore , should be limited . |
| 193 | However , they should limit public spending on the aged . |
| 194 | What is therefore needed is a wise plan for limited yet sufficient public spending on the aged so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 195 | This includes limiting public spending on the elderly . |
| 196 | In summary , public spending on the aged should be limited because of the fact that the elderly should have planned for their old age when they were young and they might still be able to support themselves if the need arises . |
| 197 | By limiting the money being spent on the aged , the government could help a very important sector in the MCYS . |
| 198 | In my opinion , because there are a lot of effective methods to solve the aging problem , except for medical and welfare programs , the government should limit spending on the aging population in order to develop other areas . |
| 199 | However , I think there should be a limit on how much shall be spent for the elderly , because the government needs to use more money on country development . |
| 200 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should be limited to curb heavy financial expenditures , and t 'welfare diseases ' that would undermine any incentive to work . |
| 201 | Firstly , advocates of limiting public spending on the aged argue that optimal and prudent spending is the solution so that it is able to sustain the current and future aged . |
| 202 | In conclusion , though there should be public spending on the aged , it should nevertheless be limited . |
| 203 | Government spending on the aged should be limited and funds should be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 204 | Public spending on the aged should be limited . The aged may suffer but we can not spend all the money on the elderly , especially when it will not bring long-term benefits . |
| 205 | Hence , it is crucial for a country to limit public spending on the aged and focus on economic growth so that there can be prosperity . |
| 206 | We should limit the spending money on the aged to develop other areas such as education . |
| 207 | Therefore , I agree to reduce public spending on the aged , so that more resources and funds will be allocated to other areas of development , such as the economy , education , technology and general healthcare within the country . But , help for the aged should not be neglected too . |
| 208 | In conclusion , a country which faces an aging population problem should consider limiting public money spent on the aged and instead use more of it for its development . |
| 209 | Though many may claim that the bulk of the amount needed to support the aged should come from the government which has the greatest financial power to support them , this public spending should be limited . |
| 210 | If public spending is not limited , this would mean that the workforce may be further taxed to provide sufficient funds for the aged . |
| 211 | One of the reasons why public spending on the aged should be limited is due to the emergence of other better alternatives . |
| 212 | Critics say that the spending on the aged should be limited and used for other areas of development . |
| 213 | Thus , limiting public spending on the aging population and diverting the money into other areas of the development of country is one possible solution. . |
| 214 | In cutting down the spending on the aged , governments must ensure that the basic needs of the aged are still satisfied and the money saved from fiscal restraint should be efficiently invested to be partially plowed back into the elderly . |
| 215 | Hence , solutions have been suggested to reduce the heavier burden of the young in future , and one of the solutions proposed is to limit public spending on the aged . |
| 216 | There will be an adverse impact on the economy if government spending on the aged is not limited . |
| 217 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should be limited so that funds could be used in developing the country through the retraining of workers , expansion of economic structure and maintenance of a high standard of education in various educational institutions . |
| 218 | Thus funding for the elderly medical fees should be limited so as to divert funds to other areas which are more necessary for improvement . |
| 219 | Therefore , it is important for the government to develop policies like the Central Provident Fund Scheme that helps the government to limit spending and assist the elderly to be self sufficient at the same time . |
| 220 | Therefore , public spending on aged should be limited and channelled to other areas of development . |
| 221 | This is one of the long term efforts that the government has decided to invest in so that their public spending on the aged would be reduced in years to come , as the future working population starts to emerge . |
| 222 | If government 's spending on the aged is not limited , the other sectors will be neglected . |
| 223 | Some may argue that limiting public spending on the aged while funding other aspects of development will neglect the aging population 's needs . |
| 224 | In the midst of such controversy , I personally agree that the problem of elder dependency will be better taken care of if a nation limits its spending on the elderly . |
| 225 | Thus public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 226 | For these reasons , it should be better if the money spent on the aged is deliberately limited for investing on many critical factors of the national economy . |
| 227 | However , limiting expenditure on the elder enables countries to invest more in another aspects like economy , education , environment or infrastructure . |
| 228 | Thus , limiting spending on the elderly and using the money on others areas , like the economy and technology , to develop the country . |
| 229 | But in view of the many problems that a country would face if large amount of public spending are spent on the aged , it is only wise that the government diversifies its public spending to other areas of development and strikes a balance among the other priorities . |
| 230 | The government has to limit the money given to the elderly because the expanded population of the elderly can lead to serious problems in economy , society and productivity . |
| 231 | The goal of limiting public spending on the aged will be made possible if the proposed measures are strongly enforced , and high cooperation among citizens of our society will help to deal with this issue too . |
| 232 | Therefore , I agree that public spending on the aged should be limited so that funds can be diverted to other areas like the Ministry of Finance , Education , Health and National Development . |
| 233 | However , to avoid compromising the development of other sectors , it is essential for policy makers to limit spending on the elderly by looking into viable alternatives . |
| 234 | Therefore , for a developed or developing country , public spending on the aged should be limited , and diverted to other areas of development . |
| 235 | Although many may argue that public spending on the elderly should be limited , this will create an impact on the society and increase . |
| 236 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development such as Education and Architecture , so as to focus on the long term situation . |
| 237 | Thus public spending on the aged can be limited so that other areas like national defence can have the money to further their advancement . |
| 238 | I think the government can implement positive policies to limit the money spent on the elderly indirectly . |
| 239 | In sum , the limitation of public spending on the elderly and diverting it to other developments would serve well in driving the country forward . |
| 240 | Limiting public spending in caring for the aged and diverting it to other areas of the country 's development would reap success in the long run . Many many would be able to enjoy the economic and social benefits then . |
| 241 | However , in my opinion , public spending could be more productive if the government knows how to control the money spent on the aged and also how to invest in areas of development . |
| 242 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 243 | This would help to limit the public spending on the elderly as the elderly can be grouped together and special needs will be provided for them in that neighbourhood . |
| 244 | However , government should limit the spending on aging population and take care of the objectives with higher priority first . |
| 245 | Hence , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 246 | In conclusion , the government should limit public spending on the aged and focus more on the major future developments which can help Singapore tackle the main problems that the majority of the local population faces , and also the root of the aging population . |
| 247 | In this case , I would think that more funds should be allocated to a country 's development and less on the aged , as a country 's development will help solve or ease the problem of an ageing population in many other ways than directly allocating funds to address this problem. . |
| 248 | Hence with society 's interest in mind , we should limit public spending on the aged so as to not impede the country 's economic growth . |
| 249 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 250 | By limiting the money spent on this group of people , it means that lesser amount of money will be used to share among those who depend on the public spending to live . |
| 251 | These strategies prove that instead of spending much money on supporting the aged , the government can seek for another alternatives to reduce the burden . |
| 252 | Moreover , with the limited money spent to support the senior citizens ' lives , it might give the government a motivation to come up with new solutions for the aging population . |
| 253 | Therefore , to prevent overdependence on the government , public spending should be limited and be diverted to other areas for better use . |
| 254 | This policy clearly shows why the government should limit its spending on the elderly , and spread it around to other more useful sectors . |
| 255 | Thus spending on the aged is necessary , however , it should be carefully limited so as not to compromise other sectors and overall national interest in the long run . |
| 256 | As the aged are able to take care of themselves , public spending can be limited so that it can be invested in other areas for enhanced development . |
| 257 | Although we have the obligation to look after the elderly , we have to limit the public spending on the elderly . |
| 258 | Thus , it is necessary to specify limits to public spending on the aged , so that sufficient funds can be channeled to provide other facilities for the nation as a whole . |
| 259 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 260 | Reducing funding on the elderly means that the government has more capital to spend on improving their economy . |
| 261 | The limited fund could only be used in those more deserving areas such as public health services . Therefore , the elderly should be encouraged to work harder to reduce the fiscal dependency . |
| 262 | So , limiting spending on social welfare might just prove to be a feasible strategy which benefits the country in various aspects . |
| 263 | With competing interests that necessitate public spending , public spending on the aged would most likely be restricted . |
| 264 | If public spending on the aged is not limited , the government will not be able to solve problems faced by society . |
| 265 | Some think that policy makers should reduce the funds for the elderly , and spend more money on other areas of the country 's developments . |
| 266 | Public spending on the aged should be limited so that people will work harder . |
| 267 | Public spending on the aged should be limited such that funds can be allocated to other sectors of the country 's development , especially education . |
| 268 | Thus , the government should limit spending on aging issues and at the same time , educate the public . |
| 269 | Should we limit public spending on the aged so that the money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development ? |
| 270 | This containment could possibly lead to a fall in money being diverted to the aged population as they are healthier now ; and thus increasing the funds being diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 271 | Even though public spending on the aged population should be limited , assistance should be made readily available to those who are under privileged . |
| 272 | In fact , it will be more efficient to limit spending on the old and use more money on economic development . |
| 273 | Thus , if the government limits spending and does not subsidize the costs of these treatments , the financial burden on the elderly will be even greater . |
| 274 | The most important reason why the government should limit spending on senior citizens is that it will constrain other sectors from taking advantage of the government budget . |
| 275 | Therefore , with good strategic planning by the country and the understanding of its citizens , limiting spending on the aged and diverting money to other areas of the country 's development , is feasible . |
| 276 | Even though limiting expenses on the aging population may sound irresponsible , doing this can be a way to help to cope with the problem . |
| 277 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited as funds should also cater to other areas of development such as education , training programmes , and even national defence . |
| 278 | Thus spending on the aged is necessary yet it should be carefully limited so as not to compromise other sectors and overall national interest in the long run . |
| 279 | The government should limit public spending on healthcare for the aged , and the limit should satisfy the healthcare needs of all the elderly . |
| 280 | Hence limitations on public spending should be implemented so that only this needy group of the aged will benefit. . |
| 281 | Therefore , funding for the aged should be limited , so as to provide more funds for the development of other areas , such as the education sector. . |
| 282 | Although these initiatives are beneficial for the aged , the government should consider limiting public spending on them to divert money to other areas such as education and development in Singapore . |
| 283 | Public spending on the aged should be limited because of the smaller labour force supporting its retirees in a country with an ageing population . |
| 284 | Another argument advocating the limiting of budget for the old is that it is better to increase the wealth of the country by investing in the younger generation , which will be the future workforce of the country and temporarily spending lesser on the elderly , who have left , or will soon leave the workforce . |
| 285 | Hence I agree that public spending on the aged should be reduced so that the government can use the available funds on other sectors of the society . |
| 286 | A limited amount of money given to help the aging population is a good issue for both the elderly and the rest of the population which benefits through the development of the different sectors of the country . |
| 287 | Therefore , since expenditure on the aged puts the country 's growth at risk , it should be limited . |
| 288 | Without restriction on the public spending on the elderly , the usage of the money may lose its effectiveness and may lead to further labor shortage , worsening the dilemma of aging process . |
| 289 | Public spending on the aged should be limited as there are other areas that are of equal , or even greater , importance . |
| 290 | Some feel that giving our full support to the elderly is of the utmost importance while others suggest limiting expenditure on the aged , being conscious of concerns from other sectors of the country such as economic growth and sustainability . |
| 291 | Hence , spending on the aged population could then be limited . |
| 292 | In conclusion , I agree that public spending should be limited as citizens should not be over reliant on their Government and the focus to solve such problems should be to increase workforce and also make use of more money on lowering healthcare costs in other areas of the country 's development . |
| 293 | Therefore , governments should limit their spending on the aged . |
| 294 | Even though it is significant and essential to help the aged , public spending on the aged needs to be limited . |
| 295 | Some critics might argue that the country will lag behind and lose its competitiveness if the fiscal spending on the elderly is not limited . |
| 296 | Although spending on the elderly is inevitable in the face of an aging population , careful spending is necessary in diluting the effect of fiscal consequences . |
| 297 | On the other hand , if public spending on the aged is not limited , this would cause an adverse effect on the younger workforce . |
| 298 | Although one can already see from the examples above that spending for the old age should be limited and the fund should be reallocated to other sectors , one might still think that we are in debt to the old age population because of their previous effort and work in the past and that we have to show our gratitude to them by allocating some for them , spending too much is still not wise idea . |
| 299 | In conclusion , in Singapore , limiting public spending to divert money to other areas of the country 's development is a feasible option to address the long term aging population issue . |
| 300 | Even though public spending on the elderly is essential in dealing with an ageing population , it should be limited because of underlying negative implications . |
| 301 | Although there are contradictory opinions related to this topic , more and more people agree that public spending on the aged should be limited based on arguments that other areas such as education need more public financial resources , other social security welfare systems have proven to achieve reasonable successes and old people still can possess independent lifestyles . |
| 302 | There is another reason why public funding on the elderly should be limited . |
| 303 | Although the government 's spending on the aged may be minimised to develop a country 's infrastructure for greater economic benefits , there should be at least some effort by the government to satisfy the social needs of the older citizens by building an elder-friendly place , making it a comfortable place for them to live in . |
| 304 | Spending on the aged must be limited and not too much as there are other aspects as shown above that also need to be funded . |
| 305 | Further if public spending on the aged is not limited despite the decrease in the size of the workforce , the country 's economy will be negatively affected . |
| 306 | However , in my opinion , the funding for the senior citizens should be cut back so that we could take full advantage of this amount of money to develop other fields to contribute to the country 's growth . |
| 307 | There are other reasons why public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 308 | Therefore , the public spending on the aged should be limited and more funds should be invested in these areas in order to secure the future of the county and maintain its competitiveness in this fast-paced world . |
| 309 | critics argue that by limiting the amount spent on the aged and diverting the resources to other areas of the country 's development , the essential needs of the elderly would be neglected . |
| 310 | Limiting public spending on the aged reduces their dependency on the government . |
| 311 | Having said this , the aging problem is worth considering but the government should not spend too much money on it while the effectiveness of recent solutions for the problem is still uncertain and the problem can be solved indirectly by the development of other areas of the country like the economy or education . |
| 312 | Many ways are , indeed , present to help limit public spending on the aged . |
| 313 | Thus , we must ensure that the money we use for the elderly is reasonable ; otherwise , we will lose a lot and end up with preventing our development growth . |
| 314 | One reason that public spending on the aged should be limited is that some of it can be diverted to develop the military . |
| 315 | On the other hand , if there is no limitation on public spending on the elderly , it will definitely reduce the burden for their family and help economic growth . |
| 316 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should and will be limited . |
| 317 | Restrictions should therefore be imposed on public expenditure on the aged due to competition for funds by other sectors . |
| 318 | Hence , spending on the aged should be restricted so that resources can be divided equally based on the needs of the various sectors . |
| 319 | It would be economically rational to place a limit on public spending on the aged population and subsequently channel the excesses to attract more economic investments for the country in the long run . |
| 320 | Hence governments should focus more of their resources into improving their economy , rather than spending so much of their funds on the aged . |
| 321 | In countries where the population is not aging , public spending on the aged should be decreased and the funds should be channelled into other more important policies and schemes . |
| 322 | Hence , limiting public spending on the aged serves as a good warning sign to people in the working society . |
| 323 | It is not wise to allocate large public spending on the aged . But instead , , one may set the sights further and tackle the root of the problem , which is to educate the public to plan for their future finances. . |
| 324 | Therefore , Public spending for the aged should be limited because |
| 325 | Therefore , a boundary to the spending on the elderly should be set in order to avoid increasing the burden on future generations and upsetting of the development of other key sectors as mentioned earlier . |
| 326 | However , Singapore should limit public spending on the aged because it does not provide a long-term solution for the nation and thus it should be spent on other developments that can indirectly but significantly relieve the economic burden of the aging population . |
| 327 | Therefore , public spending had been reviewed to address this problem and to reduce the negative impact of the aging problems . |
| 328 | That is why it would be a fantastic idea to limit money spent on the aging . |
| 329 | These two social issues will not happen if there is limitation on public spending on the aged . |
| 330 | With lesser funds being channeled to the aged population , more of it may then be used in areas that can spur the development of a country . |
| 331 | Another point in case is that since the elderly can be self-sufficient to support themselves in old age , public spending in this area is thus limited , and may eventually result in a shift of state funds and capital to boost other sectors of the country 's economy . |
| 332 | With proper policies to help citizens save up , countries can not only find no need to increase their budget on the aged , they may also find themselves spending less which can also mean that more funds can be allocated to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 333 | Hence , by having this CPF scheme , the government is able to cut down on spending on the aged and put it to better use by diverting it to other areas of the country 's development , thus improving the country 's economyeconomy of the country |
| 334 | A low limitation limits the funds from being diverted to other areas of the country 's development such as education and economic developments . |
| 335 | As it takes years for the country to overcome this problem , spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 336 | Public spending on the aged should be limited |
| 337 | In my opinion , public spending on the elders should be limited and the money can be diverted to other sectors of the progress of the country . |
| 338 | The debate is now whether the nation state should limit its public spending so that the saved resources can be utilized on other areas of the country 's development . |
| 339 | Therefore , public spending on the aged definitely has to be limited , ensuring enough funding goes to other sectors such as education , military , technology , transport , housing , healthcare , sports , etc which are equally important so as not to increase taxes for the working population . |
| 340 | The government can also reduce the privileges allocated to the elderly and the public spending can be used in a more prudent way in the development of the country in other areas . |
| 341 | Government spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 342 | Therefore , public spending should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 343 | In conclusion , it is noted that capping of public spending for the aged will provide more cash flow to other sectors , which will in turn reduce and tackle the problems faced now . |
| 344 | There are several factors that explain the need to limit public spending on elderly healthcare . |
| 345 | On the other hand , public spending on the aged should be limited and chanelled to the less well-off section of the society . |
| 346 | Hence , countries should limit their spending on health care to invest in other potential opportunities . |
| 347 | The best alternative is therefore to make a more sizeable investment by limiting the spending on the aged and divert the budget to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 348 | Thus , one of the ways to prevent this from happening is to have control over the public spending on elderly , so as to prevent further increase in tax contribution . |
| 349 | As the government wants to maintain a country 's development , public spending on the aged should be limited but not to the minimal . |
| 350 | Public spending on the elderly should be limited . |
| 351 | This would reduce their dependency on the government when they are old thus cutting public spending on the age . |
| 352 | Thus , in today 's society , much has been debated on whether public spending should be limited so that more money can be diverted to other areas for the country 's development . |
| 353 | This proves to be a better solution because it allows the government to limit the public spending and fellow citizens to take responsibility . |
| 354 | Therefore , it is advisable for public expenditure on the aged to be limited so that no other sectors are sacrificed . |
| 355 | Minimum help should be required from the government and so public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 356 | In an aging society , it is important to limit and control the increasing public spending on the aged . |
| 357 | Considering these important factors , many people will eventually support that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 358 | In recent years , reforms to curb public spending on the aged have become a cornerstone on many national governments ' policies . |
| 359 | In conclusion , because of enhanced economic growth , ensuring better lives for future generations of older people and stressing filial obligation , limiting public spending on the aged in order to invest in other areas of the country 's development is a good approach to solve the global aging problem . |
| 360 | With little economic growth and increasing expenditure to develop the nation , the majority of people regard the amount of public spending on the elderly can be used as a more constructive expenditure on other areas of developing the nation . |
| 361 | If too much spending is put into helping the aged , neglecting other areas of the country 's development which aids economic growth , . |
| 362 | Therefore , spending on the aged should be minimized , and funds that are allocated to it should be given out more wisely and strictly . |
| 363 | This essay argues that public spending on the aged , one of the most major categories that have recently invested in , should be limited for developing other countries ' important areas , promoting their sustainable growths , and forming people 's responsibilities . |
| 364 | We can then increase our capability and independence to support the . Thus it is wise to limit public spending . |
| 365 | Public spending on the aged should be limited for the overall sustainable growth in a country 's development such as in the areas of national economy , education and defence . |
| 366 | The country should not focus too much of its effort on exploring the incentives for spending on elderly care ; instead , it should develop an adequate plan for the sectors which are equally important to the country 's development . |
| 367 | Limiting the public spending on the aged opens up other areas for development such as infrastructure , education and defence . |
| 368 | To minimize the impact of it , a few suggestions have been proposed . They are increasing money spent on the elderly ; cut benefits ; or cut other government spending . |
| 369 | However , due to practical reasons , spending needs to be limited . |
| 370 | By limiting government 's spending on the aged and diverting them to development on other areas , we are not just targeting on the elder population but the entire population instead . |
| 371 | There have been many controversial debates on whether the government should limit public spending on the elderly so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 372 | By doing so , government spending on an aging population could be effectively reduced . |
| 373 | Therefore , public spending for the aged should be limited and focused on developing other areas . |
| 374 | If this huge amount of spending is reduced , but in turn , spent on other areas of the country 's development , the wealth of the country can reach a . |
| 375 | So reducing spending on the elderly for the sake of a country 's development is a wise act . |
| 376 | In conclusion , public spending on the aging population should be limited and diverted to the economy and the technological development of the country . |
| 377 | All in all , funds should be limited and directed to other more important areas for the country 's development so that the country will be able to remain competitive in the economy and achieve sustained economic growth . |
| 378 | Hence , even though public expenditures on the aged were to be limited , people still have savings which , when combined with government aid , are more than sufficient to meet their needs . |
| 379 | If these services are not fully utilized by people and the elderly are not responding to government assistance , slowly these older people could be considered as not productive and be neglected by the society . |
| 380 | Limiting spending on the aged will deprive them from the basic aids they require for survival . |
| 381 | Therefore , after considering all the factors , I agree that public spending on the aged should be limited as other factors are equally important , such as taking care of the public and ensuring international competiveness and progress of the nation . |
| 382 | On the other hand , a country with a high limitation of public spending on the aged means that more funds are being diverted to other areas on their country 's development . |
| 383 | On the other hand , others might argue that by not limiting the public spending on aged means that lesser budget will be allocated to other areas of Singapore 's developments , such as education , defence and health sectors . |
| 384 | The government should also invest in the infrastructures , which has the long-term effect on the development of the economics ; but we should use money wisely and not bump blindly into new projects . |
| 385 | As compared to a welfare-state that provides pensions indiscriminately to all , such as comprehensive approach would demand less public expenditure on the aged and thus funds allocated should be limited accordingly . |
| 386 | The first point needed to be clarified is how limited government funding on the elderly should be and what will happen if the expenditures are below an acceptable level . |
| 387 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be limited ; the reasons are given in terms of pension , subsidy and medical insurance . |
| 388 | If public spending is limited , the pressure on the government will be reduced . |
| 389 | Secondly , imposing a limit on public spending for the aged can make people spend money more responsibly . |
| 390 | With fast-aging population and the restricted national budgets which do not allow spending generously on the elderly , this limit should be maintained at an acceptable level which ensures that the basic needs of the aged such as food , clothing , housing , transportation and healthcare are met . |
| 391 | Thus , in conclusion , the public funding for the aged population should be limited , for the good of the tax payers , the overall development of the country and the familial happiness of the elders . |
| 392 | Hence , public spending on the aged should be restricted . |
| 393 | National governments are urgently seeking the best options to such challenges and one of the few options on the table is to restrict public spending on the aged . |
| 394 | This essay will strongly argue that yes , the state should indeed limit its spending and focus more on economic growth so as to not to discriminate against the elderly , but rather to aid them in a more fruitful way which is beneficial for both generations . |
| 395 | Besides , there is other option available other than cutting the spending on the elderly in order to have more money for other developments . |
| 396 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should be limited to a certain percentage that is adequate for the welfare of the aged . |
| 397 | Rising living expenses and healthcare costs is also another factor which highlights the importance of limiting public spending on the elderly . |
| 398 | Hence , limitation of public expenditure is still feasible and should be encouraged so that money can be diverted into other areas of the country 's development . |
| 399 | Therefore , some might argue , why not reduce the spending on elderly and invest in other areas of the country 's development which are profitable . |
| 400 | Instead of limitless spending on the aged , funds should be diverted to develop economic growth , and in turn use the revenues gained to finance aging welfare . |
| 401 | The amount of money that the government can use for developments in other areas may not increase even after limiting the spending on elderly . |
| 402 | All in all , limiting public spending on the aged and directing the funds into other areas of development such as businesses , education and healthcare is more rewarding then just focusing on the needy groups . |
| 403 | If we do not limit the spending on the aged , Singapore may risk losing its current global recognition status |
| 404 | Thus , by limiting the spending on the aged , it would mean that other sectors of the society would get more than before . |
| 405 | Unfortunately , there are so many there is public outcry by the younger generations who claim that public spending on the elderly should be limited for the sake of the country 's development . |
| 406 | Hence , public spending on the aged should be limited in order for funds to be sub-divided among the education , tourism and R&D sectors which are the main sources of revenue . |
| 407 | The dependency of the elderly on the young can be reduced and government 's spending on the elderly can also be minimized in the long-run . |
| 408 | In order to ease the current predicament , governments have to emphasize on the distribution of their budgets or reallocate funds to reduce the cost of public spending . |
| 409 | In order to reduce the need for the aged to fully depend on the government , the government should encourage the aged to support themselves instead . |
| 410 | Hence , I agree to a large extent that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 411 | If government spending on the aged is not limited , it can become a huge burden to the working population . |
| 412 | However , on the other hand , there should be limited , but adequate percentage of public spending allocated to the aged . |
| 413 | Therefore , the government should focus more on how they can reduce this spending , so that the economy will not be damaged . |
| 414 | However , I feel that if there are increased funds in the other areas of development , the burden would actually be lesser than it already is . |
| 415 | However , this spending should be restricted so that it would not become a restraining factor for the growth of nation . |
| 416 | If we did not limit the amount we are spending on the elderly now , this amount would increase proportionately with the increasing number of the elderly in the future . |
| 417 | In conclusion , public spending should not be mainly on the elderly as the money should be used for other areas of the country 's development . |
| 418 | Public spending must be limited so that it can be diverted into other major areas where it forms the pillars of the economy , like Education , Defense , Technology , and Research & Development . |
| 419 | I do not agree with the statement that suggests " public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development " . |
| 420 | In turn , they would be able to support the aged thus reducing the dependency of the aged on the government . |
| 421 | Firstly , the portion of public funds spent on ageing population issues should be reduced . |
| 422 | However , some people disagree that public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be channelled into other areas of development . |
| 423 | Public spending on the aged should be limited in terms of healthcare and eldercare services , housing and accessibility . |
| 424 | Thus there should be a limit to the public spending for the aged . |
| 425 | Therefore , funds should be limited in the area of spending on the aged . |
| 426 | It is therefore crucial that the governments and policy makers do not recklessly sink huge portion of their countries ' spending on these areas . |
| 427 | In a nut shell , government spending on the aged in healthcare should be capped at a certain limit to take care of people who may really be in need while the rest of the budget should be shifted to other areas of the country 's growth . |
| 428 | Thus , governments should deal with objectives with first priority and limit the budget for aging population . |
| 429 | For a country which places a low limit on public spending for the aged , the amount of investment being channeled into other areas of the country 's development would be lower than another with a higher limit on public spending for the aged . |
| 430 | Thus , public spending for the aged should still be budgeted and focused on other areas of development which will help generate more income . |
| 431 | This helps lessen the government 's burden to provide for the elderly , and the effects of a shrinking workforce brought by aging population . |
| 432 | Healthcare service is very essential to the elderly as they are more prone to . Therefore by lowering the cost of healthcare , elderly can have more money to use in other areas of retirement . |
| 433 | I do not agree with the statement that public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 434 | Therefore , it is a wiser choice to lower public spending on the elderly because the net benefit from such an action would be much greater than if we were to leave the spending untouched . |
| 435 | With these in place , the impact of an aging population on the social and economic aspects will be greatly reduced . |
| 436 | By limiting public spending on the aged , it may signify that the government perceives the country 's development to be more important than the welfare of the people . |
| 437 | The government may implement certain policies to help the aged or give out enough subsidies to the needy but to a certain limit . |
| 438 | Although economic growth is important in providing care for the elderly , the limit on the elderly spending should be set carefully , so that they would not create any adverse effects on the economy . |
| 439 | But all in all , the advantage of limiting the public spending outweighs the disadvantage as the needy group of people would be minimised . |
| 440 | Also , Governments should use the government budget to deal with other issues that are more pressing than the aging population . |
| 441 | Funding for the aged is necessary as there is a growing trend in the ageing population but more importantly resources should be allocated away from just the aged itself to other aspects of the country 's development that will indirectly aid the ageing population . |
| 442 | Although government spending is to be cut down , the healthcare of the elderly should be provided at least for the poor . |
| 443 | There is a decrease in the ratio of working people to those over age 65 . Therefore , governments are reviewing their budget plans and developing policies in order to overcome with these crucial challenges . |
| 444 | Therefore , public spending on the elderly should be restricted . |
| 445 | However , this spending should be limited because the development of certain areas of a country deserves more attention . |
| 446 | Therefore , instead of spending too much money on the aged , the government can think about realizing some of these policies , or or developing policies to solve the problem . |
| 447 | In conclusion , limitation to public spending on the aged and diversion of money to other areas of development should be implemented . |
| 448 | With economic growth , the financial burden will be lessened allowing more money for spending on social areas . |
| 449 | Therefore , instead of just focusing on solving the current situation by pumping excessive amount of money into the aged population , the governments should use the money that is saved from limiting the amount of public spending on the aged to prepare the current generation of adults for their future retirements . |
| 450 | Since the money should be reduced by promoting these two policies , more money can be transferred to other more urgent areas . |
| 451 | Though I feel that public spending on the aged should be limited , it should be done flexibly and contextually . |
| 452 | One of the biggest factors that the aged may put excessive burden on economic development is the less support to the elderly from their adult children as a consequence of lower birth rate and higher child care costs . |
| 453 | Therefore , setting limits on the public spending on the aged , I think , is a much better and wiser choice . |
| 454 | Therefore to maintain a healthy balance between various demands and to reduce dependency , , there should be a boundary set on the public expenditure for care for the elderly . |
| 455 | Limiting spending on ageing issues help to force society to take responsibility and not to totally rely on the government . |
| 456 | Therefore , I am for the statement that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 457 | By looking into these factors , the country can greatly decrease the impact of the liabilities these elderly have on the country . |
| 458 | Therefore , the ability of recent advancements to ease the aging process can be greatly limited by financial constraints . |
| 459 | Moreover , the elderly are not the only members of society so public spending on aged should be limited so that money can be spent on children . |
| 460 | Should Public spending on the aged be limited |
| 461 | Moreover , if the government decides to retain its limit of spending on the aged , higher tax burden will eventually be imposed to increase revenue to fund these interventions . |
| 462 | It is impractical for public spending on the aged not to be limited . |
| 463 | Limiting public spending will make sure that the government does not overspend on treatment that is not essential , so that the money can be diverted to other areas . |
| 464 | To deal with these global aging problems , governments have to reserve a large proportion of the already limited public spending for the elderly . |
| 465 | The government is able to buffer the effects if it places more attention on the aged . |
| 466 | In conclusion , public spending should be limited and money diverted to other areas of a country 's development. . |
| 467 | This will obviously help to reduce the expenditure by sharing between the government and its citizens . |
| 468 | Other than cutting the spending on the elderly , there are other ways divert more money for other development plans . |
| 469 | Similarly , public spending should not be diverted largely to the country 's development and limited for the aged and a balance should be made . |
| 470 | To achieve this , money has to be channelled into research and development instead of spending excessively on the aged . |
| 471 | This limitation will help us give the right supporting finance to the elderly as well as to other areas ' development in our country . |
| 472 | Many arguments have been raised on whether the government should limit this spending as the money could be used for other areas of the country 's development . |
| 473 | To deal with such challenges , the proportion of GDPs spent on healthcare and social security for the aging population should be aimed to scale down permanently . |
| 474 | The key concept here is effective management of limited resources to achieve maximum benefit for the aged . |
| 475 | To deal with such challenges , one of the options is to set boundaries on public spending on the aged . |
| 476 | As a result , it helps to reduce the reliance on the public welfare schemes , allowing a more of the funds in other aspects of the country . |
| 477 | These people are not only helping the government to cut down expenditures on health care , but also helping the country to generate more income , as well as to stabilize the economy . |
| 478 | In conclusion , the government should provide certain subsidies to the aged but to a limit . |
| 479 | However , there are other useful measures that could be taken to reduce the amount of public spending on the elderly . |
| 480 | However , public spending on the aged should be limited as the people should be self-reliant . |
| 481 | Government spending must be sustainable and not burden future generations . |
| 482 | This is an example of alternatives that can be used to reduce spending on the elderly . |
| 483 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged population should be limited but not to such a large extent that it deprives those who are really in need of assistance from getting aids . |
| 484 | So it has been a controversial issue whether governments should cut public spending on the aged and divert it to other areas of economic development to secure stable productivity and GDP . |
| 485 | In the face of a limited budget , public spending , should give priority to necessary schemes and identify which cost can be reduced in order to . |
| 486 | The burden on the people to pay for higher taxes in the future would be lessened as the economy serve to benefit the aged . |
| 487 | As a result , without the appropriate approach from the government to assist them financially , the aged are 'paralysed ' by cut backs on levels of public spending and likely to lose most means of life without jobs , shelters , and money to purchase their basic means of surviving like food and medicine . |
| 488 | However , there should be a limit to the country 's expenses on the aged . |
| 489 | I strongly agree that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 490 | As far as we would like to help the aged , there should be limits to which how we can help , such that the still mentally-competent or physically-competent aged will not be reliant on us unreservedly . |
| 491 | The problems are lower birth rate , rising healthcare development costs to meet growing ageing needs and economic loss incurred from a neglected welfare system . |
| 492 | However , this may lead to an issue of whether the governments should limit their public fund on the aged . |
| 493 | Secondly , there is a need to limit spending on the aged due to increasing costs of basic necessities ( ,2006 ) . |
| 494 | Thus , judging from the explanation , it is convincing to limit the public spending on the elderly . |
| 495 | by entrusting the responsibility of taking care of the elders to everyone in society , public spending on the elderly could and should then be limited . |
| 496 | In contrast , if the government decides to cut back spending on economic development and rather channel it into the elderly healthcare sector , tougher choices like tax increase have to be made in the future if the economic development is unable to sustain the rise in healthcare spending . |
| 497 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be limited and people should be educated from young on the ways to prevent aging population problems rather than to find a solution for it . |
| 498 | There should be a limitation on public spending for the aged . |
| 499 | Therefore public spending should be limited to a large extent . |
| 500 | But the increasing spending should be limited such that it does not hamper the country 's development and stability . |
| 501 | Without setting a limit on the government funds spent on the aged , all these will not be possible . |
| 502 | As such public spending should be limited . |
| 503 | With larger part of welfare supported by elders themselves , more elder citizens would have access to limited government budget . |
| 504 | However , detractors may disagree with the stand that public spending on healthcare should be limited and the money should be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 505 | As a result , government increases or decreases in taxes could benefit the ageing population . |
| 506 | By investing enormously in the aged , other areas of developments for the country will be neglected , and this will result in more social problems . |
| 507 | Not only does it benefit the government as spending on the aged can be reduced , it also benefits them both economically and socially . |
| 508 | Secondly , limiting public spending on the aged means leaving out in the cold these vulnerable sub-groups of elderly people : single women , the uneducated and those who can not save during their young days . |
| 509 | Hence , government should not over focus on this issue and throw in excessive funds in this area as this will inhibit the growth of other sectors . This is because funds can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development , such as and building better infrastructure to support the country 's development into a world class city . |
| 510 | By limiting the public spending on the aged and using it on defence technology research , Singapore will be better equipped in safeguarding itself as well as earning additional revenue for the country . |
| 511 | Alternatively , governments can reduce the amount of money spent on welfare benefits for the elderly . |
| 512 | Financial help should be given to those who are really in need , instead of allocating large amount of funds to all the elderly . |
| 513 | The problem with regard to an aging population would eventually be eased through more financial support generated from a larger scale of economy instead of increasing the percentage cost of the budget and participation of the elders themselves . |
| 514 | Therefore , The government should not focus too much of their spending on the aged . |
| 515 | In conclusion , governments should cut off the inefficient amount of money spending on the aged and use it to invest in other aspects of society so that the result is better off not just for the aging problem . |
| 516 | Hence they would most likely be more self-sufficient and public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 517 | Some people may argue that limited public spending on the elderly . |
| 518 | However , limiting public spending on the seniors should be done flexibly and contextually . |
| 519 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should have a limit . |
| 520 | Secondly , the rise of living expenses and healthcare costs continuously is another reason why should government limit public spending for this sector . |
| 521 | The government then has to interfere to educate the public to be less prejudiced against the aged . |
| 522 | Secondly , social problems may surface if the elderly do not receive sufficient care and help they need from the government . |
| 523 | The second point needed to be clarified is in which areas the money saved from maintaining the fiscal costs on the aged at the satisfactory level should be invested and how to make use of the money earned from these investments to benefit the aged . |
| 524 | The burden on the government will be reduced and will in turn instill responsibilities between the aged and working people . |
| 525 | Limiting Public Spending on the Aged |
| 526 | ) Therefore , with such policy in place , public spending on the aged is already limited in this sense . |
| 527 | Nonetheless they should also take into consideration the cons of not limiting public spending on the aged . |
| 528 | In conclusion , the assumption that public spending should be used in other areas of a country 's development due to the lack of productivity of the aged is flawed . |
| 529 | With less funds being pumped into areas such as technology and infrastructures , investments may flow out when other nations offer better incentives . |
| 530 | Public spending on the aged should be limited as the elderly today are healthier as compared to people of the same age in the past . |
| 531 | A limit on spending would lead to the imposition of a limit on the range of health care for the aged that would be funded by the public . |
| 532 | However , this is not entirely true since spending money on other suitable sectors may be a better and perhaps permanent solution to solve this aging problem . |
| 533 | By reducing public funding for the elderly , the government seeks to be more stringent in their subsidization criteria . |
| 534 | With regards to all the points mentioned , it is concluded that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 535 | However , doing so and not limiting the public spending on them would have dire consequences on Singapore itself . |
| 536 | All in all , there are many reasons which support the idea that spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 537 | Hence , the government should limit the amount used to aid the elderly as their financial needs are taken care of by their own family members . |
| 538 | There should be a limit to how much the government should spent on the elderly group . |
| 539 | It is reasonable to state that once the governments reduces the amount of money spending on healthcare system maintenance or accommodation subsidy , it might result in a social and political crisis . |
| 540 | They therefore will have to think more when spending money , and will try to reduce wasting extra money on unimportant things . |
| 541 | They can cut down spending on other areas rather than the funds for the aged . |
| 542 | This means that the burden of supporting the aged by the society will be lessened . |
| 543 | If the government finds that aging is a heavy burden , it is bound to decrease the necessary public expenditure , thereby forcing more people to use private health institutions . |
| 544 | There are several reasons why public spending should be limited . |
| 545 | With a limited social welfare fund , people will rely lesser on the government and more on themselves . |
| 546 | This measure curbs elderly people 's worry of escalating healthcare costs , which they find themselves more liable for in their older years . |
| 547 | In contrast , I feel that in Singapore 's context , limiting public spending and diverting money to the country 's Education & Architecture in order to address the long term aging population issue is viable . |
| 548 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be diverted to other more important aspects . |
| 549 | Spending money on the aged should be limited and children should carry the burden of looking after their parents . |
| 550 | However , taking into account all the advantages and disadvantages of the policy of cutting government spending on the elderly , there should be more effective ways to handle this challenge rather than directly or indirectly giving " fish " to the elderly , so it will be necessary for the government to limit public spending on the aged . |
| 551 | In my own opinion , I agree to a large extent that public spending on the aged should be limited . |
| 552 | Hence , public spending on the aged should be limited , but not completely ignored . |
| 553 | Another reason why public spending should be limited is because a country does not only consist of the aged . |
| 554 | Elderly should not be granted a lump sum but instead the fund should be diverted to other areas which will lead to future economic growth . |
| 555 | As a result , the writers are trying to show that public spending on the aged should be reduced . |
| 556 | If one can solve the aging problem and develop the country at the same time by spending more on other sectors in the country as mentioned above , why would one choose not to and spend more on the aged population ? |
| 557 | Again , we can see how public policy has shaped to help the elderly to acquire a less financially taxing aging process . |
| 558 | However , we can always organize campaigns to educate our elder population to direct them to enjoy these benefits , allowing the government to limit their expenditure on the aged . |
| 559 | Clearly , the trade off for limiting public spending on the aged is rewarding . |
| 560 | Finally , as the population gets older , there is an increase in demand on the country 's healthcare system , where spending on it should be limited . |
| 561 | To illustrate that these are only some of the many benefits which can be achieved from reducing spending on the aged . |
| 562 | Let us suppose that the government uses means-testing to limit spending on the elderly . The old people outside the vulnerable sub-groups will either have to continue to work , or rely on their savings or their children to live on . |
| 563 | So should public spending on the aged really be limited ? |
| 564 | Therefore , placing a cap on public spending to support the aged should be implemented . |
| 565 | In the long run , if the government focused only on the development of the country and neglected the aged , it will result in economic inequality of " the poor getting poorer , the rich getting richer " concept . |
| 566 | By doing so , there are two main benefits which can help minimize the strain on the country 's economy . |
| 567 | Public spending should be limited to a certain degree so that the budget would be diverted to different areas such as education , research and development , tourism and the transportation system of the country . |
| 568 | Money should be spent more wisely in helping the country to get out of the economic downturn . |
| 569 | In a nutshell , curbing the enigmas of the ageing population to a large extent , depend on the social policies of a state . |
| 570 | The better alternative , however , is spending more on the other aspects rather than spending on the aging population . |
| 571 | Under such circumstances , the government should make a more effective spending scheme to solve the aging problem rather than not have any plan or restriction . |
| 572 | Based on this idea , the government of a country should focus on improving these areas with the limited funds and not on its aged citizens . |
| 573 | In conclusion , it is essential for us to set a limitation for the money we spend on the aged . |
| 574 | However , the argument is that there can not be unlimited public spending directly targeted at the aged because there are other major concerns with the economy and society that the government of Singapore has to deal with . |
| 575 | The Strategy for Older People ( Welsh Assembly Government , 2003 ) also approved that the spending for the old should be limited so that the budget can be balanced and it is considered as a strategy for the long-term development of every country . |
| 576 | Therefore the government should set boundaries on public spending in this area before a country is able to achieve sufficient economic growth . |
| 577 | This issue has led to a heated debate on whether we should limit the spending of public funds on the aged . |
| 578 | As widely known , taxation is very limited and thus public spending has to be circumscribed . |
| 579 | It could be argued that public spending on the aged is being carried out at the expense of a country 's development in other areas . These areas include the education sector which will increase the productivity of a country , and also infrastructure and transport facilities which will serve as attractions for direct foreign investments . |
| 580 | We also need to note that it is important not just to cut the budget but also come out with a detailed alternative plan to support the aged . |
| 581 | What is then needed is that the public expenditure towards the needs of the aging population should be carefully looked into instead of diverting it to the country 's development . |
| 582 | By placing an unlimited amount of public spending directly targeted at the aged , the government will be neglecting economical , social and political issues which in a way , act as platforms for achieving better living conditions for the aged . |
| 583 | When the country 's resources are not focused mainly in caring for the aged , it could be diverted to other areas of the country 's development , such as economic and social developments . |
| 584 | Clearly , the government can cut down on excessive support for the elderly because there are many other ways . |
| 585 | There are several ways to reduce the fiscal cost of elder dependency . |
| 586 | With allocation of funds more to other development , it will ensure that we need not make such heartless and controversial decision in the future . |
| 587 | Thus society should limit their spending on the aged and shift their focus onto the young . |
| 588 | Although , public spending on the aged has to be limited , it can not neglect the social needs of the elderly . |
| 589 | If there was ever a need for more funds to be injected into the development of the country , other areas and not the spending on the aged should be looked at . |
| 590 | In addition , healthcare subsidies should be reduced on the part of the government and transferred to the community in the long run . |
| 591 | Public spending on aged healthcare accounts for the bulk of the spending which is precisely why it should be limited . |
| 592 | This essay will discuss the limit that should be imposed on the amount of funds that should be budgeted for the aged that would constitute a fair distribution of government resources . |
| 593 | Hence , public spending on the economy and other aspects of society outweigh spending on the aged as money can be better utilized elsewhere for a country 's development . |
| 594 | This reminds policymakers to adopt a more cautious mindset while allocating funds to public spending . |
| 595 | The government should plan their public spending carefully , so that they will not face the problem that they can not afford education , security and economics . |
| 596 | With such a bleak outlook of our economy , our nation should be spending more wisely . |
| 597 | Governments should be cautious of their spending over expensive medical infrastructure which does not contribute to the country 's future development and should focus more on the nation 's areas of development that do . |
| 598 | As the aged are used to receiving allowances and subsidies , the lack of government aids might affect their lives . |
| 599 | Thus the government should be cautious in expanding spending in the aging population , taking into account the impact on economic growth . |
| 600 | Under this system , if the family has a high income level , the government would provide lower subsidies to the patient . |
| 601 | From the economic perspective , low variable cost will finally lead to low average cost despite the fact that the fixed cost is quite high . |
| 602 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be limited and diverted to military development . |
| 603 | By increasing public spending on an aging population , governments risk overlooking other areas of the country 's development . |
| 604 | Hence , a restriction of the expenditure on the elderly people should be implemented . |
| 605 | This would probably have a better effect on solving the aging problem than just focusing on financial areas . |
| 606 | Diversion of public spending to other areas of the country 's development , instead of on the aged is a doubtful policy to maintain regional political stability . |
| 607 | This shows that manufacturing companies are trying to reduce the unnecessary burden to maintain the companies ' stand . |
| 608 | This further reduces cost and additional financial burden arising from interest expenses . |
| 609 | Certain social issues such as poor quality of life and insufficient funds for basic healthcare may arise from limited funding . |
| 610 | In addition , some will disagree that it is not feasible to expand public spending on the aged because it would neglect the development of other areas such as the Research & Development sector and the Banking & Finance sector , resulting in the loss of competitiveness and investors ' confidence on Singapore 's economy . |
| 611 | The aged should not be forgotten but spending on them needs to be limited and only if needed . |
| 612 | By endlessly investing in assisting the elderly , areas of the country 's developments will be overlooked , resulting in more serious social problems like unemployment . |
| 613 | Apart from that , it should be limited to instill the importance of being independent and prevent over-reliance on the government . |
| 614 | Governments should not be myopic and divert most of the funds to support the aged but instead weigh the pros and cons carefully when implementing various long terms polices . |
| 615 | In conclusion , the government should set boundaries on public spending on the aged so that people will learn how to plan financially for their own old age at the early stage . |
| 616 | To conclude , the effects of limiting public spending on the aged should never be underestimated . |
| 617 | Diverting the public spending into other areas of the country 's development will cause the aging population problems to increase and hence also increases the burden of the younger generation . |
| 618 | When the limited money is made the most of , the aged can benefit from the various prospering departments all over the country , and maintain a self-sufficient life without the financial aid from the government . |
| 619 | Even if there is a need for additional funds for economic and social development , instead of limiting or cutting expenditure on the aged , the government should look at other areas to cut . |
| 620 | If the public spending is limited , children will have to send their parents for the appropriate level of treatment and this will reduce wastage and increase efficiency in quality of care at the same time . |
| 621 | Increased public spending in this case encourages senior citizens to stay idle , when the resources can be better diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 622 | If the government helps the senior citizens with public spending by constraining the fiscal cost on other areas of country development , the government would actually put the country in a straggling condition . |
| 623 | However , it is essential to regulate the amount spent on assisting the aged . |
| 624 | Resources are always limited , thus the government has to allocate them cautiously for the continuous development of the nation . |
| 625 | We will discuss whether to limit the public spending on the aged . |
| 626 | If they were to ignore the needs of the elderly and focus on the development , it will obviously bring more social problems to the society . |
| 627 | It is important that governments take note of this and control their spending so as not to neglect other more important areas such as education and the economy . |
| 628 | I agree that spending for the old age should be limited for the " old " is not the only concern of a country . |
| 629 | Since there are definitely other ways to cope with aging populations governments should allocate its funds to other areas that are more urgent . |
| 630 | In conclusion , public spending for the aged must be capped . |
| 631 | In conclusion , in countries where the population is not aging , public spending on the aged should be diverted to other more important sectors , such as research and development sectors . |
| 632 | Due to the decrease in healthcare aid for elderly , lack of community hospitals and nursing homes , social problems will be generated . |
| 633 | First , the local government has done much to introduce various measures to help lessen the economical load on the elderly . |
| 634 | I feel that instead of focusing all their efforts on trying to tackle the problems directly , government should step back and take a look at the bigger picture . |
| 635 | Thus , instead of limiting public spending on the aged , the government should look for other possible solutions . |
| 636 | We definitely have to allocate resources towards this growing issue of a greying population , but we should limit the spending to only what is sufficiently necessary , and not to the extent that it restricts the society with a large financial burden . |
| 637 | Firstly , public spending on the elderly should be limited and not be reduced . |
| 638 | Hence we should spend on other developments but not at the expense of forgoing that for the elderly . |
| 639 | Some economists believe that the government should cut down public spending on the aged to invest in other areas while some completely disagree . |
| 640 | Overall , it depends on the country 's situation and the budget to determine whether it should limit its spending on aged . |
| 641 | In conclusion , the decision whether to limit public spending for the aged in order to divert it into other areas is a very debatable issue . |
| 642 | Budget allocated to the health sector is essential in every country as reduced healthcare facilities and equipment will lead to reduced productivity as people fall sick and they are unable to receive adequate medical attention . |
| 643 | At the end of the day , public spending should always be limited to finance the basic needs of the aging population . |
| 644 | Secondly , what I want to emphasize is that the governments should only limit the public expense , which does not mean that they totally abandon the aged . |
| 645 | However , although investing for development will bring good things for the country , we should not spend 100 % of the money for it . |
| 646 | So the best way to cope with this problem will be to encourage today 's working force to save more money for themselves instead of depending on their descendants or government . |
| 647 | The concept of a welfare-state should be especially avoided in countries with scarce resources like Singapore , because in times of financial difficulties , they will have no resources to tap on but have to rely solely on themselves ( Clasen , 2001 ) .To be on the safe side , policy-makers should allocate fiscal earnings in a diverse manner , and not solely on maintaining the aged . |
| 648 | This is one reason why money can be spent more on other areas for the country 's development instead of on the aged . |
| 649 | This unprecedented demographical shift with the number of dependent adults surpassing the number of dependent children envisages serious negative impacts , from declining of work forces and real GDP to sharp increasing of elderly fiscal cost , that will impoverish and subsequently impede developmental growth . |
| 650 | Hence countries should have a margin drawn according to the number of people who really need help from the government before setting the limit for public spending on the elderly to ensure that they are taken care of . |
| 651 | The Government will continue to subsidize health care to bring the cost down to an affordable level for this group of people which makes up a large number of the population . |
| 652 | Hence , a country should decide on the amount they want to commit on the ageing population as different amount would lead to different results . |
| 653 | If governments neglect the importance of a country 's development and choose to spend more on the elderly instead , . |
| 654 | In conclusion , public spending should be limited to an extent where no single needy person is deprived from assistance . |
| 655 | This might lead to foreign corporations being discouraged to invest in Singapore as Singapore might be perceived as not having an effective system . Therefore it can be concluded that the aged should have a bigger portion of the pie that is the public spending , while other areas will still have their share |
| 656 | There should not be a diversion of public funds because economic growth is dependent on consumption , investments , and government expenditure ( Alemohammad,2009 ) . |
| 657 | In conclusion , we have to consider public spending on the other areas of concerns other than that of an ageing population |
| 658 | Therefore , we emphasize that public spending on the elderly should not be totally absent but limited . |
| 659 | So , the government should use a more efficient method to cope with the aging population instead of limiting the public spending on the elderly . |
| 660 | The money should be used more wisely . |
| 661 | However , we should not blindly put these money into subsidies , but instead , use it to research for better policies or systems . |
| 662 | Hence , there will be a group of people who have a lower level education and they will need financial aid in order to afford the healthcare services . |
| 663 | The government also should make a clear policy regarding public spending on the aged which states how much money or what is the percentage from public income that should be spent to support the aged . |
| 664 | " Therefore , wise policy planning in diverting the public spending to all areas of the country 's development is more effective instead of limiting the public spending on the aged . |
| 665 | In other words , there should always be a limitation to the amount of funds spent on the aged as they constantly need support and there will never be sufficient funds . |
| 666 | It might be true to some extent , but we should also consider that the government will only limit the public spending on the elderly , but will not eliminate it . |
| 667 | The government needs to know how to set limits on the healthcare budget for the elderly . |
| 668 | Singapore government should continue to be cautious about how it allocates its expenditure such that it will bring the utmost profit to the country . |
| 669 | People will learn to be self-reliant when the support given by the government is being limited . For example , people need to make their own plans to fund for their own health care . . |
| 670 | , the crux of the issue here lies in how much this spending on the aged should be capped at . |
| 671 | Secondly , in terms of subsidy and medical insurance , the government often fails to differtiate the levels of needs among different groups of people . |
| 672 | In a nut shell , every country needs to consider wisely about public spending on the aged . |
| 673 | As a result , despite the limit on money spending , we still respect traditional responsibilities . |
| 674 | The government should decide on the segment of the population that requires government aid in old age before calibrating the essential funds required for the elderly . |
| 675 | Aged citizens will require for basic healthcare and treatment . |
| 676 | A budget should be set for the public spending on the aged . |
| 677 | Secondly , there is lack of healthcare professionals and facilities to cater to the needs of the elderly . |

| 5 | With an educated workforce , the country will be able to ask for better wages for their citizens and hence increase their standards of living . |
| 6 | Better education leads to more job opportunities and increases one 's ability to earn more money and think critically . |
| 7 | When education is enhanced , graduates have a higher chance of getting a job and hence contributing to the economic development of the country . |
| 8 | With better policies , the government will be able to increase the productivity of the work force . |
| 9 | If more efforts and money are spent on the development of economy , there will be much more benefits gained from it in turn . |
| 10 | Moreover , with a higher level of education , they will be able to learn how to invest well , which may eventually lead to higher earnings and which may also result in the increase in the Gross Domestic Product , which is good for their country . |

| 11 | Improved will benefit the since technological advancements can enhance productivity , and the economic growth will ensure the continuation of the welfare program . |
| 12 | Public funds that are saved can be used to develop the economy because economic growth will increase the standard of living . |
| 13 | By having a good education system , more jobs will be created and this in turn leads to development in a country . |
| 14 | This will then increase job opportunities for the people and also the country 's income . |
| 15 | Furthermore , a higher education level provides better job prospects , which in turn benefits individual financial prospect . |
| 16 | In this way , wealth would be generated and the economy would improve . |
| 17 | One of the ways to improve the economy is to ensure the competitiveness of the workforce by having and encouraging people to upgrade their skills . |
| 18 | Also , more jobs would be created which in turn would aid the country 's economy . |
| 19 | Hence , not only expenditure on the development of infrastructure indirectly improves public transport but also boosts a country 's economic development . |
| 20 | This economic growth is important because it allows the country to have the power to improve its citizens ' quality of life . |
| 21 | Through the methods of requiring people to provide in advance and encouraging longer working lives , more money can be diverted to other areas to promote economic development . |
| 22 | The government uses these developments to boost the economy . |
| 23 | Also , a boost in the economy , might lead to higher standard of living . |
| 24 | Perhaps government should introduce policies which could add value to the aged workers , in turn increasing their productivity . |
| 25 | These economic policies are important as they will help to promote economic growth for the country . |
| 26 | By investing more money in these areas , a country may generate higher return and has a higher GDP growth . |
| 27 | They would be able to able to work better and attain higher income so as to help support education , housing , social services and rising cost of transportation for themselves . |
| 28 | Being able to do this would benefit the company and have a positive impact on the economy . |
| 29 | With more people in the workforce , productivity will increase , which will at the same time enhance the economy . |
| 30 | By diverting the money to develop the economy , the government will be able to create more jobs so that it can reduce the unemployment rate as well as increase its Gross Domestic Product , which is the indicator of the economic health and standard of living in a country . |
| 31 | Taxpayers ' money can be used to generate more jobs and higher income for the people , resulting in better economic growth . |
| 32 | This will allow the population to contribute productively to the economy in future . |
| 33 | Subsequently , public spending on the different policies and infrastructures would benefit society and support the economy in the long run . |
| 34 | With higher education , people will be able to earn more income and thus save more for the future . |
| 35 | In this way , the money saved can be used to implement more urgent and practical policies that also contribute to the nation 's strength and potential . |
| 36 | However , considering the future financial input that these well-equipped workforces would generate , proves that it is a worthwhile investment for the country . |
| 37 | As a result , the country is able to maintain its economic competitive edge , as well as to create more jobs for the people and enjoy higher standard of living . |
| 38 | By investing to other areas such as technology , economics , service , health care , etc. society can developed dramatically , which is in return , contributing back to lessen the burdensome of the country 's development . |
| 39 | Therefore , implementing the new policy of encouraging employment of the elderly will help both economically and socially for countries with aging population . |
| 40 | For that reason , spending on areas that serve the purpose of helping a country 's growth is essential to the country . |
| 41 | Allocating the national budget to may result in an increase in GDP as it will benefit the nation 's economy and industry . |
| 42 | It showed that with potential lucrative economic growth , the country is able to amass more resources to cope with the needs of the society . |
| 43 | A person who has received an education not only benefits from having more knowledge and skills but has higher productivity and is able to command a relatively higher wage for his contribution in the economy . |
| 44 | This helps to encourage working people to work and play better and gives them a better standard of living . |
| 45 | A well-developed country can bring wealth and boost the economy of the country . |
| 46 | The first and foremost positive consequence of economic growth is that it will not only ensure the continuation of the current social welfare programme , but will also increase the total spending on such programmes in real terms . |
| 47 | Thus , with the encouragement and funding from the government , the companies will be more motivated to provide enhanced training for the existing employee or relevant training for the elderly to enter the company . |
| 48 | Providing a better learning environment for the younger generation will yield a better workforce in future and thus bringing in more revenue for the government to spend on the elderly people . |
| 49 | A country can step on its way to prosperity if it has good economic policy . |
| 50 | Increasing spending on them will lead to increasing benefits for the country in the future . |
| 51 | In contrast , if we channel our funds to other economic activities such as developing infrastructure and tax incentives for entrepreneurships , we are likely to have a good yield for our future economy . |
| 52 | Meanwhile , governments could invest more money in economic development , which is the governments ' first priority , and generate more revenue to support the aging population in the future though a larger scale of economy instead of an unlimited percentage increase in government spending . |
| 53 | The money could also go into building cost-saving infrastructures , hence attracting more businesses to the country . |
| 54 | Therefore , the government can have funds for training and upgrading to improve workers ' productivity and knowledge . |
| 55 | This calls for a need for the government to spend on areas which could boost the economy . |
| 56 | The government hopes that with compulsory education , its people will be provided with the necessary skills to foster the economy . |
| 57 | While this may be a problem , a potential growth in the country 's economy will allow for even more funds to be made available for the area of social welfare in the future . |
| 58 | Such courses and workshops are relatively expensive to conduct and thus , the government 's efforts to subsidize them will encourage more workers to upgrade themselves . |
| 59 | Looking ahead , jobs creation is a more resourceful way in developing a country with its public spending . |
| 60 | In addition , the government can also invest in areas where profit and social welfare can be improved so that the standard of living will be increased . |
| 61 | Also , the government can direct more technological resources to schools so as to better equip the younger generation for a technological-edged world , improving their economical worth . |
| 62 | With better economic and social condition in the country , people would become richer and affluent . |
| 63 | The statistics show that reemployment is a useful tool and the government 's policies have had a positive impact on companies . |
| 64 | This will help to boost the economy and . |
| 65 | He believes that through the upgrading of the people , they can contribute more to society with their newly imparted skills . |
| 66 | With the portion of money saved , it can be used in other areas of developments , which will bring about a better living environment for the people . |
| 67 | As a result , this public investment enhances the intellectual standards of its people , and that leads to an increase in economics as people work more efficiently with knowledge . |
| 68 | As a result , with higher education , people will have more chances of earning higher salaries , thus increasing their savings for later needs . |
| 69 | In this economic downturn , it will be more efficient if we set a strong base through education so that our workforce will be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to tackle problems and future challenges in life and work when the economy picks up . |
| 70 | The aim was to increase the employment rate by encouraging retrenched people or the elderly to improve and upgrade themselves on the necessary and essential skills to continue to stay in the workforce . |
| 71 | Not only that , an educated population will also mean a more productive workforce for the country , which will allow them to have an edge over others . |
| 72 | An educated workforce increases productivity , which drives the economy to increased wealth . |
| 73 | This will bring about a progress in the overall standard of the country and the economy . |
| 74 | Upon having better technology and infrastructure developments , the country will be able to attract more Multinational Corporations ( MNCs ) to invest , thus increasing job opportunities . |
| 75 | For example , the society becomes more educated and affluent as more money is being pumped into the economy to ensure higher education for its people ; and the people will get higher income when they work . . |
| 76 | This will help the country 's economic growth . |
| 77 | But , the ultimate aim of investing expenditure on such a large scale project is to increase the standard of living of people . |
| 78 | In order for the country to develop , funds are needed in the retraining of the workers , expansion of the economic structure and maintenance of a high standard of education in various educational institutions . |
| 79 | The government should also diversify funds to develop the economy , so when the economy grows , there will be more money for the government to support the aged who are unfortunate and vulnerable . |
| 80 | Next , having more funds can create employment opportunities for the people . |
| 81 | This can be done by improving workers productivity and increasing labor force participation . |
| 82 | But if this spending can be alternatively channelled into other sectors of the country 's development , such as infrastructure and domestic economy as mentioned above , the country will achieve long-term success and stability . |
| 83 | More specifically , a good education system will produce a more talented and creative generation who can replace the current old generation and continue to devote their best to develop the country ' economy in the future . |
| 84 | An increase in the working population will then allow more resources to be channelled to other areas which demand such funds . |
| 85 | Economic growth is vital to a country as with a good economy , it increases government revenue . |
| 86 | Hence , not only the country but its people will also benefit from the economic growth . |
| 87 | With a strongly educated workforce , the national economy would dramatically strengthen . |
| 88 | When the efficiency of the workforce is high , it will benefit the economic growth of the country . |
| 89 | In fact , the development of other sectors may bring about economic growth , which could possibly drive higher fiscal earnings to facilitate eldercare policies . |
| 90 | Whereas , the other aspect is seen as benefitting the whole community at large since such capital and funds are diverted to improve the economy . |
| 91 | By doing so , a country 's development will be improved as there is circulation of wealth when trading is performed . |
| 92 | In addition , it will also benefit the country 's economy . |
| 93 | The money could have been put into better use by diverting it to other productive developments to improve the country 's economy and overall standard of living . |
| 94 | By creating the policy of encouraging employment for the elderly , the elderly in the society will be more independent and able to support themselves . |
| 95 | With more funding allocated to other development , more social issues can be resolved , allowing more potential economic growth . |
| 96 | For example , investment will bring more job opportunities to the market due to the economic growth . |
| 97 | With economic prosperity , citizens will have jobs and are able to support themselves . |
| 98 | This means coming up with policies that can increase the size and productivity of the current and next generation 's working-age population . |
| 99 | This would benefit the country , both economically and socially . |
| 100 | So it will enable the economy to expand which means more jobs will be created for everyone . |
| 101 | By doing that , the remaining public fund would be used more efficiently and effectively in other investment and reinforcement activities and the country would benefit subsequently . |
| 102 | When governments have the budget to invest in other areas of the countries ' development , the economy will operate well and he overall income will escalate . As a result , the spending for old people will also increase . |
| 103 | Economic growth could be achieved with greater productivity . |
| 104 | And with economic growth , the country will become richer and the people will enjoy a higher standard of living . |
| 105 | Thus , public spending should be channelled to promoting economic growth which can help to continue or enhance welfare programs . |
| 106 | By encouraging re- employment , the government is assisting the elderly to lead an active and productive life . |
| 107 | The governments are strongly expected to efficiently use money from the national budget to maintain a sufficient economic growth and provide a better living standard to its citizens . |
| 108 | Education for the older generation would also help the economy as they will remain competitive and up-to-date with the relevant skills and are able to support themselves for a much longer period of time . |
| 109 | More job opportunities will be provided and everyone will be able to live a higher standard of living . |
| 110 | Also , with better infrastructure , more investors are inclined to invest in the country resulting in a boost to the economy . |
| 111 | Hence , it will benefit the economy . |
| 112 | A good economy will ensure the overall well-being of the society . |
| 113 | Spending to develop the country can generate extra revenue to the country , creating a more affluent society . |
| 114 | With these , the country will be well-equipped to ensure sustained economic growth and to head towards a prosperous and progressive nation . |
| 115 | It is critical for such investments to establish as it provides employment opportunities . |
| 116 | In addition , a prosperous economy will lead to the increase of wealth . |
| 117 | This is important , as having more youths will increase the productivity of the country as well as spread the cost of development over a large population . |
| 118 | Funds directed to other areas for the country 's development will also benefit the society . |
| 119 | For example , investing on current employees to advance their expertise in the workplace can land them with better promotion prospects and job security . |
| 120 | Also the government can give benefits or incentives to older workers to encourage them to go for re-training in order to increase their employability . |
| 121 | As years went by , industrialization emerged in many countries to meet various people 's needs , like job opportunities and economic growth . |
| 122 | This will in turn generate more economical benefits for companies . |
| 123 | This allows people to keep upgrading and maintain their competitiveness in the workforce , which is essential to the economy . |
| 124 | Moreover , part of public funding should also be spent on re-training schemes for working adults so as to improve their work quality and efficiency , as well as to keep them skilled and valuable for industry . |
| 125 | Therefore , more budget should be channeled to the economic sector to boost the country 's economic situation . |
| 126 | With the new skills and knowledge obtained , individuals would hunt for better paying and quality jobs . |
| 127 | Policies that favor income distribution towards capital will also raise the return on capital , which will enhance capital formation , and in turn raise labor productivity and the national income . |
| 128 | Therefore , the government has come up with policies such as increasing the retirement age for the working age population ; re-skilling so as to help them keep up with the new technology required in their field of work . |
| 129 | For example , the economic growth of the country can help to ensure the continuation of welfare programs due to increased revenues of the country . |
| 130 | As a result , the productivity of citizens has also increased rapidly which leads to an increase in national revenue . |
| 131 | Education will harvest long term benefits for both individuals and the country as an educated pool of citizens will definitely generate greater economic growth . |
| 132 | Firstly , countries can help to ease the aging process by implementing a new policy of encouraging employment of the elderly . |
| 133 | The revenue of the country would in turn increase and the government can use it for other investment and research purposes . |
| 134 | This will lead to a higher productivity rate . |
| 135 | To add on , the government has not been neglecting other sectors but instead , it is trying its best to make economic conditions more favourable for the country to prosper . |
| 136 | Moreover , together with the development of the economy , productivity will also rise . |
| 137 | One is to reduce the future old-age dependency burden by increasing available resources , which means to increase the size and productivity of tomorrow 's working-age population . |
| 138 | Also , it can encourage people to work hard and help to increase productivity . |
| 139 | In the long run , it will stimulate the economy . |
| 140 | This will benefit the country economically . |
| 141 | The payoff of this investment is a highly efficient and productive workforce . |
| 142 | Skills obtained allow for higher productivity in the workforce . |
| 143 | This will then increase the labour force of the country and result in economic growth . |
| 144 | Government could use public funds to invest in job markets to increase the economic growth of the country . |
| 145 | Increasing the productivity of the working population can come in the form of subsidised training schemes . |
| 146 | All these promote social and economic developments of a country too . |
| 147 | Some may argue that it will be more beneficial to the country 's economic growth , if the funds are diverted be used on economic development such as better infrastructure . |
| 148 | If they are encouraged to be productive , they can be economic contributors as well . |
| 149 | In return , developing these crucial areas would benefit the country as well . |
| 150 | This shows that the retraining of skills have indeed helped older workers to become more productive leading to the increased willingness of employers to hire them . |
| 151 | In fact , if the economics of the whole society can ensure a steady growth , then it will be much easier for the country to undertake the pension . |
| 152 | A country could also focus its spending on developing its financial economy , the result of which would be that the working population would be financially better off to take care of their immediate elderly family members , thereby the burden on government spending . |
| 153 | When this condition is satisfied , economic growth then can be sustained to cater for other areas of country 's development . |
| 154 | Without development , there will be no progress , whether economic , social , or political . |
| 155 | The productivity of the country will therefore be increased , and again , with more wealth earned , public spending in general , and on the aged , in particular , will be increased as a result . |
| 156 | This will help to create more jobs , increase revenue of businesses and enhance the economy . |
| 157 | Not only does the country economy benefit , it helps the country to keep on developing and moving forward so as to catch up with |
| 158 | By doing so , many jobs will be created for the people . |
| 159 | Our economy and the population should be expected to benefit from this increase . |
| 160 | Firstly , public spending diverted from the aged to other important areas of the country 's development can contribute to promote economic growth . |
| 161 | More resources should be allocated to develop the country 's education system so as to ensure the continuous supply of good labour and also to educate the public of the importance of self-reliance . |
| 162 | Such spending generates revenue and boosts the economy . |
| 163 | Money could also be invested in many other areas of the country 's development for further growth or better benefits to the country , rather than waste on healthcare benefits for the elderly . |
| 164 | By making more efficient policies , governments will be able to save a lot of money to spend on other aspects of society that are also very important . |
| 165 | A country 's development is the key element to bring wealth to the country , so as to improve the living quality of the future generation . |
| 166 | The process of gaining knowledge is of paramount importance in developing countries as it would reduce the level of poverty and increase the ability of their people to find quality jobs . |
| 167 | To deal with the limitation of public spending for the aged , a budget amount should be set aside to allow enough funds to be used for building and developing infrastructure , creating employment opportunities and improving the standard of living to benefit the nation , as well as to increase its economy and GDP . |
| 168 | Similarly , the users of the innovative products will be in a better position , financially , to afford it . |
| 169 | As a result , more jobs opportunities will be available for not just the future generations , but as well as the elderly . |
| 170 | In a pragmatic view , channeling large amounts of funds to the singular of the country such as research and development and education would in the long run benefit the country 's economic growth . |
| 171 | Moreover , when more money is spent for people when they are younger , it could raise a better workforce for the nation . |
| 172 | The government could set up more schools to train the elderly new skills . These new skills would allow more opportunities for the elderly to find jobs . |
| 173 | If the TFR is higher , there would also be more people at work in the future , and contributing to the economy and sustaining its high growth . |
| 174 | The government has also several programs to retrain older workers and upgrade their skills , ultimately , increasing their employability . |
| 175 | As these people need to be hired , they can contribute to the society and sustain the economy . |
| 176 | People will also become more affluent to spend and stimulate the economic growth . |
| 177 | With the investment from them , the school has abilities to modernize facilities so that the training condition will be better . |
| 178 | At the same time , unemployment issues can be reduced by creating more relevant job opportunities through foreign investments and entrepreneurship . |
| 179 | By improving the business environment , our country has also undergone a dramatic climb in our economy . |
| 180 | If the government invests more money in the economy like reducing tax for companies , allowing more foreign investments , , the concern for lack of effective labor among the aging population may be addressed . |
| 181 | Increase in economic growth will also lead to an increase in employment . |
| 182 | With sufficient funds , the country can spend on manpower , education , investment , construction and other aspects to aid in its development . |
| 183 | Investments in a good healthcare system would ensure that the ageing population is healthy and hence more government attention could then be diverted onto issues like economic development etc . |
| 184 | Indeed building and maintaining economic stability requires heavy capital , but with economic prosperity , more money will be generated . |
| 185 | However a significant amount of funding should also be diverted to other to stimulate the economy and help the country and its people to survive the economic downturn . |
| 186 | It also creates a " work more and save more " mindset so as to reduce government dependency . |
| 187 | For example , encourages retrenched or older workers to upgrade themselves to increase their employability . |
| 188 | This is why developing the economy is more important and more beneficial . |
| 189 | Such courses should be put in place to encourage the working population to upgrade themselves by attending such courses . |
| 190 | However , instead of limiting fiscal spending on the aged , there are alternatives that can improve the productivity of a country . |
| 191 | But by putting other areas as a focus for economic growth , we can actually ameliorate the whole picture all together . |
| 192 | With development in both education and infrastructure , foreign investors will choose to set up their companies in a country with a pool of talents and with great infrastructure with this it can boost the country 's economy . |
| 193 | The size of today 's economy and tax base can also be increased by encouraging greater productivity among the non-elderly . |
| 194 | Equipping the younger generation with relevant skills can also allow them higher chances of securing better jobs of their preferences in the future . |
| 195 | Therefore , to have a mixture of young and old workers , a firm could have , while training the younger generation of workers in advanced skills that are necessary for an organization to excel . This will enable the organization to be more efficient. . |
| 196 | Another advantage of economic growth is that it raises the real income of people . |
| 197 | In this way , the general population will be able to benefit from an increase in income as a result of the economic growth . |
| 198 | Moreover , citizens can request higher salaries as the economy has improved . |
| 199 | In order to help the society and its people to cope with the changes , current research and development such as new technological inventions and employment schemes are being put in place . |
| 200 | Money can then be diverted to other areas of the country 's development which may be of greater use to the future generations . This will also make members of the society more independent in after their own health . In addition , |
| 201 | Emphasizing on continual learning and skills upgrading for older workers will help them to remain competitive in the workforce . |
| 202 | However , it is futile to have a skilled and knowledgeable workforce without sufficient job opportunities and career advancements . |
| 203 | Since it is evident that in the long run economic growth allows flexibility , meaning that it does not burden the younger generation and pressurizes the national budget while taking good care of the older generation , it is mandatory that society starts focusing more on the economic growth so that everybody wins in the long run . |
| 204 | This is because there is still a need to contribute to the country 's economic growth to sustain the well-being of its people . |
| 205 | This will contribute more to the progress of the society than . |
| 206 | In addition , the technology can help governments maintain economic and political stability . |
| 207 | This could stimulate economic growth . |
| 208 | Thus the income of citizens will rise and lead to increased savings . |
| 209 | For instance , the investing of funds for research and development will raise the productive capacity of the country , thereby attracting more direct foreign investments . |
| 210 | Superior infrastructure attracts foreign investors to set up business in the country as it reduces production cost and also increases accessibility for their business . |
| 211 | In other words , the government should spend more on creating jobs and educating the population . |
| 212 | With more educated citizens , there will be a more productive workforce ( Ramphele " Rosovsky , 2000 ) . |
| 213 | For instance , an expansion in the economy will increase the revenue , and hence raise the financial ability of individuals . |
| 214 | Thus sufficient funds will be directed to areas which may contribute to the economy . |
| 215 | Furthermore , when they enter the workforce , they will able to fully utilize these skills and contribute effectively to the economy . |
| 216 | A stronger economy leads to higher household income . |
| 217 | By doing so , the younger ones will be able to concentrate on their jobs , which will in turn help develop the country and probably even increase the birth rate . |
| 218 | Furthermore , longer work lives can certainly increase the productivity of the nation . |
| 219 | However , there are retraining programs available for the elderly to upgrade their skills in order to keep them updated and constructive in the workforce . |
| 220 | Money saved by cutting off unnecessary projects due to the exaggerated aging issue can be divided wisely into fields that can either promote the enhancement of the country or improve the life of all . |
| 221 | With economic growth , it means increasing revenue for the country . |
| 222 | Although incentives are given to companies who hire local older generation workers , the upgrading of skills of the older generation has been done as well , in order for them to be more competitive in the job market . |
| 223 | Clearly , by shifting public expenditures to other development needs of the country , not only boosts a country 's development and makes living more comfortable within the country , it also indirectly benefits the elderly too . |
| 224 | Employment , national stability , economic stability and power are just some of the benefits that come with economic growth . |
| 225 | With an increase in economic growth , the number of working population will rise as more people will be able to find jobs . |
| 226 | " ( Key Budget Initiatives ) With a strong education system base , everyone has a chance to receive high level of education , which will secure them higher paying jobs in the future and also help to stimulate the country 's economic growth . |
| 227 | Generally , both ways serve to provide better life to to society society and gives profit to the company . |
| 228 | Advancement in technology will also attract more investors and business opportunities to the country that will contribute to the country 's economic growth . |
| 229 | With more educated youths , the size of the economy and the tax base would be bigger and the cost burden of an aging population may be spread over a larger and more productive future generation . |
| 230 | Economically , by raising the productivity of the children via diverting more money to the education system , it increases the younger generation 's opportunity to increase their economic worth , and hence their future income . |
| 231 | Hopefully the government will invest money in projects with good prospects . |
| 232 | For instance , during the current economic downturn , public funding should be diverted to developing more facilities , which will in turn improve ththe economy . |
| 233 | More businesses will start and more jobs will be created , which means more people will be employed . Thus , there will be more income tax , which means more government funds to help support the elderly . |
| 234 | The funds would have been useful to help him cover the cost of production . |
| 235 | A government 's first priority should be the economic development and the overall improvement of the citizens ' life quality . |
| 236 | If we can modify our system to be more efficient and effective without much increase in the governments ' financial budget , we are able to make room for better use of public funds in other important aspects to aid our economic development . |
| 237 | By achieving security and economic stability , a country will be able to exist . |
| 238 | Besides state funds and capital can be used to improve the infrastructure of the country ; e.g . |
| 239 | First of all , it can not be ignored that there will be more choices to care for those who are in need with sufficient economic growth . |
| 240 | Moreover , positive economic growth can ensure the continuation of welfare programs . |
| 241 | These sectors may be critical to the nation 's progress . |
| 242 | Because we want to make our country stronger and the lives of citizens better . |
| 243 | Firstly , there will be economic growth and country prosperity . |
| 244 | In conclusion , with proper limitations on public spending on the aged , the excess money can be channelled to the development of the country , thus improving its economy . |
| 245 | Instead they should implement more policies on the younger generation to boost the economy growth so as to move towards a knowledge based economy and also to introduce more schemes to increase the birth rate so that the government is able to meet their goals . |
| 246 | The main aim for almost all countries is attaining economic stability and progress . |
| 247 | The logical explanation of this claim is that when a person receives higher education , chances that he will be able to earn a much more substantial income as compared to those who are deprived from education is relatively higher . |
| 248 | Therefore , government resources should be allocated to areas of development that will generate potential economic growth which can be sustained . |
| 249 | Even with various upgrading schemes such as the Skills Programme for Upgrading and Resilience ( SPUR ) , it is still difficult for the economy to regain its vigour to the state before the economic crisis . |
| 250 | When people are well-educated , the advancement of a country 's economy will be promised ( Manali Oak , 2008 ) . |
| 251 | Hence , with the creation of more jobs , the government can assist the aged to secure a job and allow them to support themselves , on the condition that they are still healthy . |
| 252 | Therefore , public spending on industrial and related sectors which provide more job opportunities for people who have been affected during this harsh period should be stressed equally . |
| 253 | As resources are being poured into different sectors in the economy , growth will increase along with public spending . |
| 254 | Besides the infrastructure construction , another advisable method to increase production is to mechanize the agricultural system . |
| 255 | The population on the whole would become more skilled and hence increase their competitiveness in the global market . |
| 256 | On the other hand , a substantial amount could be saved if not spent in caring for the aged , thereby enabling more funds to be diverted for the country 's development in many other areas . |
| 257 | This is further enhanced by incentives being offered to companies that hire them . |
| 258 | Taking care of the population 's needs brings about the country 's development . |
| 259 | But , on the other hand , companies do save a lot in their training costs as these employees are more experienced , and retaining them will cut down on recruitment costs . |
| 260 | These policies aim to produce a higher rate of productive children for the future workforce . |
| 261 | This reasoning might be flawed as it is inevitable that the locals have to upgrade their skills to ensure high employability in the fast and highly competitive society . |
| 262 | Public money that is saved can be diverted to building infrastructure because it benefits all social classes such as the elderly , the needy , the unfortunate and the young by increasing their social welfare . |
| 263 | Policies that encourage skills upgrading have also been introduced to enable the aged to re-enter the workforce . |
| 264 | Thus , one way to raise future productivity is to invest more current resources in the production of capital . |
| 265 | The Government may also spend the amount in development where it can attract foreign talents to the country to solve the problems of manpower shortage . |
| 266 | The government should raise the salary for professionals as a way to motivate them . |
| 267 | This would mean more income will be generated . |
| 268 | As the economy is a key area of a country 's development , the government should spend more money on economic development in order to sustain a healthy economic growth . |
| 269 | The Foreign Talent Policy would thus result in a larger workforce and ultimately lead to increased revenue for the country . |
| 270 | On the contrary , the alternative to helping the elderly lead a better life is not only limited to a large spending budget , but it is also achieved while the country boosts the economy through different incentives , like supporting the entrepreneurship of people by cutting taxes and giving allowances . |
| 271 | As a result , there has been a significant growth in our economy that has increased the income of our country . |
| 272 | Infrastructure is another area where public spending should be set aside for as it benefits everyone in the long run . |
| 273 | A country with a flourishing economy finds investors more willing to invest there and the people stand to enjoy the range and variety of material comforts that a thriving market economy is able to provide . |
| 274 | Hence , in order to have better economic growth , the process should be viewed with a more comprehensive perspective . |
| 275 | As the economics grow , the government will have more money to distribute to needy people . |
| 276 | With economic growth , the average income will increase , and thus , |
| 277 | This would ensure easier documentation of items sold and companies could improve their operations efficiency . |
| 278 | By carefully allocating government funds , society will benefit as a whole . |
| 279 | Therefore , public spending should emphasize not only the social , but also the economic development of the country . |
| 280 | By doing so , our country will be able to progress more quickly . |
| 281 | When more jobs are created , business prospers more and more could then be done to support the aged . |
| 282 | As people , especially the youth , feel healthier , they will work harder and earn more money for their future life . |
| 283 | In acting as the role of advisor , they will help the company to progress economically . |
| 284 | As such , there may be a huge concentration of growth in the area of trade because when more capital is used to invest in trade , it reaps substantial rewards in the form of revenue and higher growth and stability of the economy will ensue . |
| 285 | Therefore , citizens have more job options and find it easier to be hired . |
| 286 | They can bring great economic benefit . |
| 287 | The shortage of investment and skilled workers is a problem needing rapid and lasting solutions . |
| 288 | This essay aims to discuss that channeling public expenditure on other factors of development of a country will not only boost the economy but indirectly benefit the elderly too . |
| 289 | Technical advancement and uplift in standards of living has resulted ultimately in the rapid consumption of natural resources . |
| 290 | by doing this , governments can ensure the development of their countries and provide a better living environment to all their people . |
| 291 | In the short run , the country may face difficulties , but in the long run it will be beneficial to society . |
| 292 | In addition to the improvement of facilities in the current agricultural system , high-tech support also plays a crucial role in increasing food production . |
| 293 | With this policy , the government is then able to redirect resources to more vital sectors . |
| 294 | This can be done through upgrading the skills of our workforce . |
| 295 | In order to achieve that , the elderly workers must consistently upgrade themselves to keep up with the existing demands of their jobs , as employers are looking for the most cost effective resource for the organization . |
| 296 | Without economic stability , the country will not have enough funds to run it smoothly . |
| 297 | However , there are other areas that require cash inflow to facilitate and push the society forward . |
| 298 | As the elderly today are able to survive without subsidies from the government , these funds should be put to better use and be directed to support the country 's development . |
| 299 | The workforce is the driving force that improves the economy of a country . |
| 300 | At the same time , the quality of living is also higher as the standard rises . |
| 301 | This is attributed to the fact that employers are constantly seeking people with higher productivity . |
| 302 | These may include researching and developing better methodologies or exploiting greater economic of scales , eventually sustaining the fiscal policies associated with an aging population . |
| 303 | If adapted into industry production , both kinds of technology can bring economic benefit . |
| 304 | The influx of foreign currency and increase in job opportunities will definitely help in promoting the country 's economic development . |
| 305 | The first point that should be taken into consideration is that the more economic growth there is , the more chances the elderly have to find jobs . |
| 306 | Whatever it is , the tool must be affordable by either governments or best individuals , helpful to students ' studying progress and feasible for popularization . |
| 307 | Moreover , funds should also be diverted to provide skills upgrading for the workers . For instance , a scheme such as " Skills Programme for Upgrading and Resilience " ( SPUR ) was introduced to improve and upgrade the workers ' skills . |
| 308 | Besides , more working opportunities will be created . |
| 309 | Therefore , retraining is needed for the elderly as through retraining , they can upgrade their skills and adapt to the demanding working environment to save for the future and contribute to the economy . |
| 310 | As a result , this does not only aid in the nation 's continual progress , but will also enable us to create a competitive edge over our neighbouring countries and also build a strong presence in the financial sector in this region . |
| 311 | A larger and efficient workforce will be good news for the civil service and private sector . |
| 312 | Perhaps in the short term pumping financial resources to areas such as technology and economy may produce expected results . |
| 313 | People with higher education are expected to get more salaries and accumulate wealth when they are still young , so that they will not be too dependent in their old age . |
| 314 | When productivity increases , economic growth will also follow . |
| 315 | Therefore , it will lead to more sustainable performance in the long term . |
| 316 | However , this would also mean that the duration of the implementation will be increased relative to one with sufficient support from the management . |
| 317 | Thus , diverting money to other areas of the country 's development will not just solve the problems of the aging population , but will also bring every person in the country a lot of benefit . |
| 318 | Another area in which money can be directed is to provide skills upgrading training for the workers . |
| 319 | For example , more public spending on education will raise more productive children so that a more affluent future generation can be produced and the size of tomorrow 's economy can be increased . |
| 320 | In addition , an increase in infrastructure can attract investment from abroad because facilities are fully equipped . |
| 321 | Therefore , there should be some government intervention with regards to employment of the elderly , as this will assist them in securing a place in the workforce . |
| 322 | In many cases , research and development is important to the countries ' businesses and industries to boost knowledge and skills . |
| 323 | Therefore , economic profit gained from the product would also affect technological innovation . |
| 324 | Higher salaries will encourage citizens to purchase more goods . |
| 325 | The various schemes aim to help the SMEs increase their revenue and attract investors through upgrading the existing business operations and creating gateway and funding opportunities |
| 326 | Education will nurture the best brains which will in turn power the economy and bring wealth to the nation . |
| 327 | This is especially so for richer countries because they have the financial ability to finance sufficient resources into the different areas of development . |
| 328 | More job opportunities may help them indirectly . |
| 329 | This will help to develop the country as a whole , as it diversifies the country 's development . |
| 330 | This employment can help to spur economic growth and help in recession . |
| 331 | Moreover , foreign investors may also seek the opportunity to invest in the country which generally contributes to the overall economic growth of the country as a whole . |
| 332 | One of the measures taken is to encourage the elderly to undergo training and upgrading of their skills . |
| 333 | Due to the economic downturn , people are encouraged to spend more money so that this will help to increase the growth of the economy . |
| 334 | Expanding infrastructure spending reflects a country 's economic favourably and helps in more foreign investment . |
| 335 | A nation needs a strong economy to support its expenditure . |
| 336 | Also , they must ensure that the country 's employment rate is healthy before encouraging more foreign talents to the workforce . |
| 337 | They could help to boost economic growth by being involved in different kind of sectors . |
| 338 | Trainings are given at subsidized rate for workers to upgrade themselves and to remain competitive in the workforce . |
| 339 | The Investments on our people will ensure the creation of competent personnel . |
| 340 | But on the other hand , there are also other important areas that public spending could be used on to facilitate the country 's development . |
| 341 | This fund allows the country to develop proper infrastructure such as roads , electricity and even water supply to attract more foreign investors to set up firms in the country . |
| 342 | The government should create more job opportunities for them . |
| 343 | Firstly , it is vital to develop the country 's economy . |
| 344 | It also increases the labour force and tax revenue . |
| 345 | Diverting funds to other more vital areas of improvements has its benefits too . |
| 346 | Having an excellent infrastructure like an efficient transportation network , will attract foreign investors . This will turn the country into an industrial hub . |
| 347 | Thus , creating the desired job opportunities often lies in the role Governments play to rectify the deficit . |
| 348 | It has played an important role in supporting economic growth and promoting social integration . |
| 349 | Instead , with the skills acquired , they should 'venture ' out and earn a living of their own which would in turn reap many returns in both monetary and health . |
| 350 | Such investments will provide stability to the country in the long-run as it increases the confidence of potential investors . |
| 351 | All these increase its economic competitiveness . |
| 352 | Since the economy affects how much funding a nation can spend on the elderly , it is important to ensure that the workforce receives enough training to improve the economy . |
| 353 | Over the years , various policy changes have further been made to improve the existing system . |
| 354 | With the mission 'better jobs for life ' , this institute is to provide help to the workforce . |
| 355 | There is a need to educate the future workforce of the economy , and also to create a workforce which is truly competitive and productive . |
| 356 | This solution can be further enhanced by employees . |
| 357 | Government needs to focus the spending on more important sectors first like economic development before worrying about healthcare for the elderly . |
| 358 | The country can stand to benefit , not only through better leadership , but responsible citizens in the society as well . |
| 359 | The older workers themselves are encouraged to grow and develop their skills to meet the companies ' standards . |
| 360 | Due to unpredictable economic growths , policy purchasers yearn for better benefits . |
| 361 | To sum up , a stable and better economy is the current human need that should be given priority to . |
| 362 | It makes aged people remain productive by changing the workspace , reforming the employment relationship and offering easy access to re- education . |
| 363 | To get a drastic expansion of the consumption for economic growth , the market created the credit card which can distribute current consumption to the future to reduce the present burden . |
| 364 | Last of all , placing more funds to enhance and maintain the security and economy of a nation should be one of the top priorities . |
| 365 | This would therefore , enhance the exports of a country . |
| 366 | Thus , instead of spending excessively on the aged , resources of the country should be diverted to other areas like healthcare , education , and infrastructure , which will in turn benefit the country economically . |
| 367 | One example is the recent government project of the integrated resort , which will create job opportunities and attract people to spend money when it is completed . |
| 368 | Investments in communication and transportation make the country more 'accessible ' , hence promoting both local and overseas investments . |
| 369 | These are due to higher expectations , which arose from the increase in the standard of living . |
| 370 | New technologies have made people realize the underlying economic opportunities beyond geographic barriers and national boundaries . |
| 371 | All these aspects work together to make a great impact on the country and make the country grow . |
| 372 | Therefore , encouraging the older workforce to go for retraining retraining will increase the productivity of these workers and hence their employability . |
| 373 | These sectors will in turn ensure the vibrancy of the country , which will lead to long lasting growth . |
| 374 | As these costs decline , businesses become more profitable when they effectively try to make use of the incentive from the government and this may translate to better salaries . |
| 375 | With all these economic developments , our economy can be expanded and sustained . |
| 376 | The second advantage of RFID is that it may save operation costs and gain more profits for companies . |
| 377 | All of this will boost the county 's economy . |
| 378 | For example , in times of an economic recession like now , the government should pump in more money to revive the economy , like the upgrading of lifts throughout the island . |
| 379 | One of the most important areas the government should invest their money on is economic growth . |
| 380 | Having hotels , shopping centers , transportation or other amenities would improve the economy . |
| 381 | Hence , it can be clearly seen that with limitations to public spending on the aged , the money diverted to other areas can help in boosting the economy condition of the country . |
| 382 | In conclusion , for a country to be successful , it not only has to look after the welfare of the elderly , but also to ensure the continuous development of the economic , the education and technological sectors . |
| 383 | On top of that , policies that create economic security for the elderly and remove barriers faced by them should always be a priority in . |
| 384 | In addition , as education opportunities increase , economies around the world have transformed from labour intensive to knowledge-based . |
| 385 | Therefore , the standard of living will be much better compared to the past . |
| 386 | The nation 's infrastructure , development and trade are in a desirable condition and the current spending on them is adequate to sustain economic growth . |
| 387 | That money goes to modernization of schools and universities , and helps to train students better , to make them talented scientists or skillful workers . |
| 388 | Furthermore , education also helps the aged to acquire new skills which enable them to work even at old age . |
| 389 | They feel that the money spent should be used on strengthening the economy instead . |
| 390 | At the same time , with the rising economy , national expenditure would eventually increase . |
| 391 | Many programs have also been set up to retrain the elder workers and upgrade their skills in order to maintain their work productivity . |
| 392 | The government should increase expenditure in this area to maximize the potential of each individual . |
| 393 | With economic growth , the budget available will increase and the government can afford to spend the same portion of the budget yet providing a larger real sum . |
| 394 | However , public spending should be diverted to other areas of the countries ' development , like the economy and the technological sector , which may help in prolonging and enhancing the quality of life for the elderly . |
| 395 | For instance , when older workers are retrained , they can be as productive as younger workers , and this will also increase their employability . |
| 396 | Thus , such investment will definitely pay off in the future economic growth . |
| 397 | Diverting funds from the aged to other forms of development will allow growing levels of poverty within the rising ageing population , thus creating shaky grounds for the country 's political stability , and also |
| 398 | These areas of development are the key that a country needs in order to become a developed one . |
| 399 | Through the processes of upgrading , individuals are empowered with the relevant skills and knowledge demanded by the job market . |
| 400 | Therefore , the government can introduce policies to encourage its people to invest in their future during the early stages of their lives . |
| 401 | Reduced dependency of the elderly would also result in better allocation of the country 's resources , as young adults would be able to concentrate on their career and social organizations would be able to direct their attention to the more needy ones . |
| 402 | One possible strategy is to enhance the opportunity of elderly employment . |
| 403 | As a result , social stability can be fulfilled while economic growth is being spurred . |
| 404 | This amount of money can be use for further development . |
| 405 | For example , the government could help in training elders and engaging them with more jobs . |
| 406 | Not only does it bring employment , it boosts business and trade . |
| 407 | Social subsidiaries should be evaluated thus reducing unnecessary spending by allowing the Government to finance more of its longer-term development expenditure which in turn brings about greater economic growth . |
| 408 | Other than that , economy should be injected a greater amount of fund to ensure low redundancy rate and minimize the loss in economic crisis . |
| 409 | This could probably cause a public outcry as the current economic crisis has yet to fully subside and the government should instead focus on recovering the country 's economy first . |
| 410 | Such development is indispensable for a country to survive in a rapidly advancing world . |
| 411 | To illustrate , spending money on economic research helps predict the trend of consumption and reduce the bad effects of unstable markets on the nations ' economies . |
| 412 | assistance schemes such as the 'GST ' offsets , rebates , service and conservancy charge rebates serve to act as a stimulus for the country in the hope that the people will spend more to keep the economy afloat . |
| 413 | Public funding should be spent on the aged for retraining , as it is also a form of investment because the aged , being part of the workforce , are also helping to improve the economy . |
| 414 | Economic growth is crucial to any country . |
| 415 | The more business in the country , the richer the country since its economy will grow . |
| 416 | For example , the government can run some job training programs to help the graduates exploit their talent and better equip them for the industry . |
| 417 | Besides companies are influenced by potential profitability and having gained access to better funding , social factors also play a part . |
| 418 | This could be achieved as manufacturers are able to reap economics of scale as their production size increases . |
| 419 | It is only through upgrading of skills and knowledge that the effectiveness of elderly employees would be increased . |
| 420 | Without economic growth , the government may face a deficit . |
| 421 | To achieve economic growth , productivity and knowledge of the workforce is important . |
| 422 | Hence , a knowledge based economy will propel the nation into societal development . |
| 423 | This is to help them to deal with changes in areas such as wage restructuring and the cost to re-train the older workers . |
| 424 | Day to day operation jobs are the key to solve unemployment issue as they provide long term employment opportunity in the country . |
| 425 | On the other hand , the amount of the tax will go up as productivity increases . |
| 426 | If today the economy produces a large quantity of new capital goods , then tomorrow it will have a larger stock of capital and be able to produce more of all types of goods and services . |
| 427 | Besides , establish criteria for success is important as well . |
| 428 | The next area the government should pay more attention on is the current economic and social issues that exist at that time . |
| 429 | The government could also give subsidies to encourage the public to do so , for instance , offering a reasonably high interest rate . |
| 430 | As discussed above , financial sufficiency can urge the improvement of the other factors . |
| 431 | Conversely , stability and security will be jeopardised without economic development . |
| 432 | They have training courses for the working population , regardless of age , to enhance their skills and improve productivity and competitiveness . |
| 433 | There are many areas that may contribute to the economy growth of a country . |
| 434 | Indeed , this may seem to be a wise move as the country will be richer in its next budget planning . |
| 435 | Many policies have been implemented and research and development have been improved in the last several , though more remained to be done . |
| 436 | Elderly people can continuously upgrade themselves through job retraining to acquire relevant skills required for the job . |
| 437 | Infrastructure reflects how developed a country is and enables people and goods move about quickly . |
| 438 | Therefore , public spending should be spent on a country 's economic development . |
| 439 | One argument against the large extent of current research and development/policies that helped to ease the aging process is the availability of jobs for the elderly . |
| 440 | In addition to that , the government has various programs to retrain older workers and improve their skills . |
| 441 | This shows that much more can be done to improve the different kinds of policies . |
| 442 | Information sheet on building strong fundamentals , expanding opportunities for all . |
| 443 | To improve the development of the economy , the government can attract more foreign investors . |
| 444 | Taking care of the population health is important as they contribute directly to the country 's economic growth . |
| 445 | Other policies the government have implemented is creating more job opportunities for the aged including , providing part time jobs , allowing flexible working hours and giving an option for them to work at home . |
| 446 | The country needs healthy and able citizens to ensure the country 's progress . |
| 447 | Alternatively , it can fund small-medium enterprises which encourage entrepreneurship as well as career advancements . |
| 448 | To sum up , the government should control the expenditure on pension costs and make more of an effort to develop the country economically . |
| 449 | With reference to MM Lee 's sentiments about venturing into new economic sectors , the money invested serves to seek growth . |
| 450 | To solve the problem , a new standard of skills for immigrants should be established or the government should have the immigrant workers re-trained for the country 's purposes although it might take time and quite a lot of money . |
| 451 | Countries are able to use new policy of encouraging employment of the elderly , increasing the awareness of filial obligation or creating new development of infrastructures that cater to the elderly in their country . |
| 452 | Peterson suggested " to increase the size of today 's and the future 's economy and tax base by encouraging greater productivity among the non-elderly " , the workforce and children ( 2001 ) . |
| 453 | This is very crucial to ensure that the productivity and the efficiency of workers are kept to a maximum . |
| 454 | This would enable foreign currency/ exchange to come in and improve the economy . |
| 455 | However , companies will reap benefits in the long run . |
| 456 | Limiting expenses on the aging population will mean that the government will have more funds to utilize to attract foreign investors to the country . |
| 457 | For instance , the upcoming Integrated Resorts ( IR ) will without a doubt stimulate a positive impact on the economy , both financially and image-wise . |
| 458 | They are considering introducing " lifelong learning " policies to help older workers keep up with the increasing demands of the economy . |
| 459 | Enhancing the employability of elderly workers by improving skills and retraining elder workers ensures that they have the relevant skills to take on different jobs should the need arise . |
| 460 | Furthermore , increasing foreign investors would result in more job creations . |
| 461 | Another way the government could use public spending more effectively is to spend more on the Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports , which is also known as the MCYS . |
| 462 | Government and companies could hence import or invent better technologies to increase productivity . |
| 463 | Realizing this challenge , the government has encouraged companies which are willing to apply the new policy before 2012 by giving grants to companies and preparing the older worker to be more productive by giving workshops and courses . |
| 464 | Awards and money incentives are also given to those who have performed outstandingly in their fields of work . |
| 465 | On the other hand , life expectancy has increased because people have become more affluent . |
| 466 | Encouraging greater productivity among the non-elderly can increase the size of the economy and tax base . |
| 467 | Such results will lead to more profits . |
| 468 | For instance , as more money is being pumped into the infrastructural development within a country , the industries benefit , with lesser taken to set up plants , tax benefits and cheaper rental . All these will drive the costs of doing business down . |
| 469 | Next , public spending on the economic sector and international trade , will make a country more affluent , hence benefiting the society especially the aged . |
| 470 | Coupled with a good education system and powerful research and development , creating business opportunities is part of the key to attracting more businesses and foreign talents into a country , as people are always interested in working in a vibrant country . |
| 471 | As such , governments were pushed to invest resources , especially monetary to solve problems . These may include having a barrier free and accessible environment , a scheme to take care of the elderly and subsidies on the healthcare . |
| 472 | Both technologies benefit the lives of people , and have potentials for profit . |
| 473 | Developing the economy of a country is an important task . |
| 474 | Besides changing the workspace , ICT also brings good news to the aged by changing employment relationships . |
| 475 | Other initiatives were also implemented such as the re-training effort for the elderly in the workforce . |
| 476 | Hence , when they are contributing to the society by giving valuable lessons to the younger generation , the best that we can repay them is in monetary value to allow them to get by in this expensive and fast-paced world that we live in . |
| 477 | An educated and skilled workforce contributes to the knowledge-based economy . |
| 478 | A more stable price reduces the chance of a big change that could lead to economy problems . |
| 479 | For favorable progress , it is important for the business sector , universities , colleges and research institutes to collaborate in order to stimulate innovation , growth and modernization . |
| 480 | In this perspective , developed countries that took the most blows from the recession should allocate their budget better to stabilize their economies , pull back old investors and attract new ones . |
| 481 | Moreover , the development of the country is a long-term investment and it must be planned properly because it will affect the future of the next generation . |
| 482 | Those who were retrenched due to company downsizing or the likes of it can take the opportunity to improve their skills and move up the corporate ladder . |
| 483 | They feel that the government should channel the funds to produce other useful products which may directly benefit them . |
| 484 | The critical challenge of the government is to ensure the productivity of future workers . |
| 485 | This is because the research done by the company boosts the confidence of investors to invest in their technology . |
| 486 | This program will enable the elderly to upscale their skills so that they can be retained in employment by their employers ( Singapore Workforce Development Agency , 2009 ) . |
| 487 | Elderly who wish to continue working are able to do so by attend upgrading courses to facilitate them in finding jobs . |
| 488 | The consumption power of society will increase in the long run . |
| 489 | With a pro-business infrastructure , not only will Meetings , Incentives , Conventions and Exhibitions ( MICE ) groups will be enticed to make more frequent visits to the country , there will also be a rapid increase of Small and Medium Enterprises ( SME ) within the country as local entrepreneurs will be more willing to venture and establish businesses in a pro-business climate . |
| 490 | This scheme was introduced to preserve jobs during the economic downturn . |
| 491 | Besides targeting the employers , the government can try improving the productivity of elderly workers by offering training or retraining for employees above the age of 50 . |
| 492 | Therefore , most of them need to work and master new technologies in order to earn their living after retirement . |
| 493 | Much of the limited funds should be diverted to such projects which will be successful in the long run and generate profits . |
| 494 | Moreover , compulsory insurance scheme can be introduced to ensure more savings . |
| 495 | Public policies are put in place to motivate them to work harder . |
| 496 | The government should therefore focus more on the older people by providing them with more training . |
| 497 | How would this assist in driving the country 's development ? |
| 498 | When more money is being invested in these entrepreneurship programmes , there should be an increasing pool of business-savvy talents . |
| 499 | The reason for this is that those sectors play a significant role in the development of the nations . |
| 500 | Leaders of the country should balance the benefits of individual , society and country with care to maximise the country 's potential for development . |
| 501 | This is because it is beneficial for the country in the long run . |
| 502 | An important issue that affects a country 's development is economic growth . |
| 503 | The government is going to retrain older workers and enhance their skills so that they are ready to . |
| 504 | Apart from infrastructure , high-tech can also do a big favor in this issue . |
| 505 | Hence , public expenditure to boost international trade has resulted in the investment of R&D which significantly benefitted the aged in terms of better healthcare services . |
| 506 | As a result this may affect the country 's development when the welfare of the young working population is taken into consideration . |
| 507 | The standard of living has become higher and higher . |
| 508 | So it is important to come up with ideas which will be useful and economical . |
| 509 | In their opinion , government should spend these money and resources on places which can benefit us . |
| 510 | Thus the expenses to develop and operate the LCFR are cheaper than the other designs , increasing profit . |
| 511 | Developing countries should provide long term and stable jobs for their people . |
| 512 | As for Retraining , it enables both adults and elderly to improve their skills to continue working . |
| 513 | ( Shandre M. Thangavelu , 2008 ) As a result , the government should put effort into reforming the country 's economy . |
| 514 | that should be considered such as the cost of facilities , equipment and finding sponsorship to make the development , that governments must be serious in extending the method of easing the aging process . |
| 515 | Last it provides a more efficient system , thus the economic benefits from it can not be neglected . |
| 516 | In this case , the technological innovation has been driven by the interest of its investors and developed for greater profit for companies . |
| 517 | Thus , more people have the opportunity to work . |
| 518 | Thirdly , it can be argued that people have achieved huge economic growth and the product of that accomplishment results in an upgrading of living standards without uncertainty for the future . |
| 519 | Employers should try to retain and retrain older workers for them to be retained in the labour force ; this will extend theirorking lives and they will be in a better economic position to sustain themselves . |
| 520 | Also to some extent 'it ' increases the value of goods . |
| 521 | Hence , we can achieve economic growth through investments in other countries ; especially highly developed ones such as China and India . |
| 522 | Through education , working adults are able to deal with highly complicated equipment that enable them to bring revenue back to the country . |
| 523 | The thing we should do is just give them a chance and help them in upgrading their skills to adapt to the modern work place . |
| 524 | The Research and Development ( R&D ) sector allows the development of the country . |
| 525 | The government has started to put emphasis on the re- training of the older workers to work more efficiently and productively ( Chan , Angelique 2002 ) . |
| 526 | Spending money for the economy seems to be a wise choice for the government . |
| 527 | This can be beneficial to them in several ways . |
| 528 | Therefore , equal or more amounts of money and attention should be given to the country 's economic growth . |
| 529 | In order to make this an effective policy , the older workers ' skills must be upgraded and kept consistent with the existing demands . |
| 530 | Also , our leaders encourage creativity and entrepreneurship in our people . |
| 531 | Information Sheet on Building Strong Fundamentals , Expanding Opportunities for All . |
| 532 | The government can attract foreign investment ventures and increase the competitive edge of firms by reducing tax and rent abatement . |
| 533 | Furthermore , they would envy others who have a higher position or make more money or make greater contributions . |
| 534 | All these evidence show how money can be effectively diverted towards generating greater economic growth . |
| 535 | Hence , I will suggest a development of new models of work which will be required as the workforce ages and employees search for greater flexibility in work organization . |
| 536 | Hence , both government and private organizations are willing to fund this project as it seems worthwhile . |
| 537 | Whether it is for educational , economical , societal or military advancement , it is of paramount importance that policy makers make suitable decisions in the best interests of the country and its people . |
| 538 | In addition , retraining programmes were also introduced ; an example would be 'Skills Programme for Upgrading and Resilience ( SPUR ) ' ( MCYS , 2009 ) . |
| 539 | To the contrary , the old has the potential to open new doors and bring about more opportunities both within and into the country . |
| 540 | Lee ( 2009 ) has provided suggestions on helping the elders to become more self-reliant through the implementation of various policies , such as providing the elderly with better health care services and jobs . |
| 541 | The countries in recession are trying by all means to revive their economy now . |
| 542 | As the maintenance of a solar energy plant requires many low knowledge based technicians , this will help to create long term jobs for the locals . |
| 543 | Due to globalization , the training of workers is important to develop and maintain a highly skilled workforce . |
| 544 | This benefit is not limited only to employed workers but unemployed workers also can turn to SPUR to sharpen their skills while they search for jobs . |
| 545 | As a country develops into a knowledge based society , there will be a shift in the employment situation . |
| 546 | Nowadays we are living in a fast developing world which provides not only abundant goods but also convenient and functional production . |
| 547 | With the development of the society , our demand for the various commodities keeps increasing . |
| 548 | Having more foreign investments implies an increase in foreign . As foreign currency grows this would bring in additional revenue for the country . |
| 549 | Thus , taxes which are collected have increased and the income of our country has also risen . |
| 550 | To encourage job security , they can receive the Chinese Development Assisting Council ( CDAC ) Skills Training Award when they successfully complete their skill upgrading courses ( MCYS , 2009b ) . |
| 551 | The government will need to spend some money on retraining the elderly to equip them with the necessary skills for the jobs . |
| 552 | Therefore to develop and maintain a highly skilled workforce , workers have to go for training courses to be re-skilled and retrenched workers have to learn new skills to be reemployed . |
| 553 | Without the guarantee of a healthy economy , the government can not improve or develop any necessary areas in their country . |
| 554 | In conclusion , for the future of the country , public spending on the aged should be carefully examined , and more focus should be placed on economic development instead . |
| 555 | In a nutshell , financial problem and lack of professionals in my home country should be solved as soon as possible to improve our engineering design processes . |
| 556 | This ensures that companies are willing to review their work process to cater to older workers . |
| 557 | With the excess money diverted from spending on the aged , the government can promote foreign investments through incentives and tax reliefs to create employment for their people . |
| 558 | One of the top priorities of every country on this planet is to ensure the stability of their economy . |
| 559 | The government 's objective is to provide a comfortable living condition for its citizen . |
| 560 | Firstly , the root of the elder dependency problem can only be solved if the country invests in other specific areas that would indirectly relieve the situation . |
| 561 | Hence , companies can contribute by employing them . |
| 562 | Researches in economics have also resulted in new policies , as will be discussed below . |
| 563 | Firstly , funds are needed in retraining the workers . |
| 564 | Firstly , the development of ICT can reduce the aged people 's difficulties by changing the workspace . |
| 565 | Besides , for talents , subsidies and welfare are necessary . |
| 566 | With the current economic crisis , the government should be much more concerned about the development of the country . |
| 567 | So growth in real GDP of a country is of immense importance . |
| 568 | Without security there can be no economic development . |
| 569 | Other fields of the country 's development are important too . |
| 570 | Furthermore , workers can refresh or upgrade their skills from more than 800 SPUR courses ( Yap , 2009 ) . |
| 571 | They should have had savings in either the form of cash or CPF to sustain them , alongside with subsides from the government to help loosen the dependency on others for help . |
| 572 | A nation need to ensure the workforce is well trained to remain competitive . |
| 573 | Despite the volatility of the country 's economy due to the global market , it is imperative for a government to implement feasible economic policies to facilitate trade and growth . |
| 574 | There are also retraining and upgrading programs , like the Senior Community Service Employment Program initiated by the United States Department of Labor ( U.S. Department of Labor , Employment & Training Administration ( ETA ) , 13 Jan 2009 ) , to make them be as competent as the young people , making the elderly still feel young at heart . |
| 575 | What is more , the government may open some training programs to offer jobs for those who are about to retire but are unemployed for the time being owing to their lack of education . |
| 576 | Next , development on the infrastructure will attract more foreign investors to set up companies in the country . |
| 577 | The old people did contribute to the improvements of their countries in the past and consequently , they deserve the government 's care . If the government ignored this problem , the next generation may not be willing to devote itself to the country . |
| 578 | One nation 's economy success depends on the quality of the workforce |
| 579 | Thus the overall contribution to economy clearly justifies its cost.It is a healthy investment . |
| 580 | MCYS would also adjust the budget according to situations such as setting aside $ 1million to help the needy cope with inflation ( Majid , 2008 , p.g1 ) Hence , the Government has provided an effective social safety net that provides assistance yet at the same time promotes self-reliance among the needy . |
| 581 | In conclusion , it is necessary to look at the big picture and pay attention to areas such as tourism , housing and the education system to help in the development of the country . |
| 582 | It is part of the government 's responsibility to meet the basic needs and look after the well-being of the citizens . |
| 583 | The examples stated above have already shown the facts that reallocating the funds will greatly benefit a country . |
| 584 | People need to be more practical and far-sighted to consider the next generation in the country . |
| 585 | By spending on the development of public amenities like beaches , larger parks , family-oriented shopping malls , etc. , the government can encourage families to foster better relationships amongst family members . |
| 586 | As an older population will directly result in lower productivity and higher social and welfare cost in a nation , many sociologists of today are and bringing forth strategies , hoping that the issue of elder dependency will be taken care of without threatening a nation 's economy . |
| 587 | On one hand , much effort and funding has been put into our education system to prepare our people for the Knowledge-based Economy . |
| 588 | Without a on spending the country would then experience a decline in economic growth . |
| 589 | However they need to understand that compulsory saving and investment are comparatively safer and more reliable than other market options . |
| 590 | With re-employment , employers can provide jobs to their mature workers and also offer them a different job position with different salary and terms . |
| 591 | These competent people will not only ensure that we have a competitive edge over our competitors , but will also give our country a considerable leverage over our neighbouring countries . |
| 592 | In addition , many more foreign investors may be attracted to this safe haven with the aim of expanding their dynamic business empire . |
| 593 | In addition , both of these long term provisions will reap in profits . |
| 594 | The government has to take this issue seriously before it affects the eeconomic growth of the country . |
| 595 | Long-term effects of these policies must be carefully taken into account and the government should be more concerned about how to sustain the economic growth in the long run . |
| 596 | Technology developed through researches has often been influenced by economical and profitability factors . |
| 597 | The development of the country is important . |
| 598 | Research and development will very likely increase the levels of overseas investment as foreign multinational companies will see the country as a good place for business . |
| 599 | For instance , the Skills Programme for Upgrading and Resilience ( SPUR ) ( NTUC Learning Hub , SPUR ) is introduced to employers to encourage them to send their workers to these trainings . |
| 600 | Secondly , it is well accepted that a country should have and appropriate development plans for gaining healthy growth . |
| 601 | The government has worked hard to create opportunities for foreign investors to encourage foreign investment . |
| 602 | For instance , the National Trade Union Congress ( NTUC ) , of Singapore ( 2001-2009 ) has been active in providing trainings for jobholders to upgrade their skills and knowledge . |
| 603 | The WDA has also come up with retraining and upgrading programmes to ensure and encourage people to hold on to their jobs . |
| 604 | " [ 2 ] By diverting the funds into sectors such as foreign investments , it would enable us to provide for the elderly even more sufficiently with the extra capital . |
| 605 | Attracting foreign investors is important as foreign investments contribute to the country economic development . |
| 606 | The main focus should be on the country 's development . |
| 607 | This is when the training and re-training of employees is crucial . |
| 608 | Economic Growth is another issue that should not be neglected when a country is concerned about her development . |
| 609 | Minister Mentor Lee mentioned about continued nation building and there being a need for more promotion of local entrepreneurship programmes and education . |
| 610 | Foreign talents would also be attracted to migrate here when we establish a welfare state image . |
| 611 | These two areas are considered to play key roles in the growth of a nation . |
| 612 | In the process , development was extremely important . |
| 613 | NTUC , WDA and employers have worked on the Job Re-creation Programme ( JRP ) to recreate and redesign jobs targeting older workers and providing training opportunities for them to take up new job openings . |
| 614 | Thus , it has a large pool of highly skilled and educated workforce . |
| 615 | The chair could be upgraded from time to time , involving technicians from other disciplines and not just engineers . |
| 616 | In some cases , employers have the notion that in order to employ the aged , the setting of the workplace might have to undergo some changes to accommodate to the needs of the elderly . |
| 617 | The productivity of the employee is a major concern of the company . |
| 618 | Some governments and businesses already try to adapt to a labour market in which many new jobs will have to be filled with retrained older workers instead of newly trained young ones . |
| 619 | Thus , employers can have alternative work arrangements for these at-risk employees . |
| 620 | Coming along with the workspace shift , the job itself will also change . |
| 621 | Free education can be implemented till they start working . |
| 622 | Human resources , in this case , refers to the labor force needed to design products with skill and knowledge . |
| 623 | In other words , it creates new business opportunity . |
| 624 | Since 2005 , the Ministry of Education ( MOE ) has introduced Project Work ( PW ) to junior colleges in order to improve communicative skills of students , as well as to encourage building of teamwork among students . |
| 625 | Firms urged to adopt age-friendly work policies before legislation in 2012 . |

| 0 | However , the public is very concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors , economic costs , technical risks , and waste disposal of the nuclear energy systems . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Although nuclear power can produce a much more significant amount of electrical power compared to other forms of electrical energy , its safety makes the public concerned about nuclear power production . |
| 2 | The public is very concerned about the safety of nuclear power plants , the storage of radioactive waste and the cost it has to pay for nuclear power . |
| 3 | However , detractors of nuclear power cited the risk of another catastrophic accident , the proliferation of nuclear arms , the lower thermal efficiency of nuclear plants and the high cost of building a plant . |
| 4 | Regarding safety concerns , opponents of nuclear power might argue that nuclear reactors are potentially dangerous as the effects from any nuclear accident would be disastrous to both the environment and the people . |
| 5 | The opposition of nuclear reactors criticize that nuclear energy is expensive due to the huge cost required in research and development . |
| 6 | Many people consider nuclear power industry as highly dangerous since the radioactive fuels can be very harmful to our bodies and environment . |
| 7 | Critics of nuclear power maintain that the production of nuclear power is dangerous as there is a dangerous possibility of a radioactive leakage . |
| 8 | Another reason for opposition to nuclear power is the high cost of reactor construction . |
| 9 | Nevertheless , , there are still some concerns about using nuclear energy : The most important one is about the safety of nuclear power plants , especially its potential for radioactive pollution . |
| 10 | People who oppose nuclear power plants think that SCWR is not safe enough because it has potentially hazardous requirements . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Secondly , nuclear power plants were often thought to be much dangerous than other sources of electricity generation due to the unstable nuclear reactors . |
| 12 | However , given the accidents of nuclear meltdown , people are worried about the safety issue of using nuclear power . |
| 13 | This disaster has raised great public concern about the safety of nuclear power . |
| 14 | However , considering the nuclear plant accidents happened in the past few decades , the public is very concerned about the security issues and high cost of nuclear plants . |
| 15 | Some of the reasons why people are opposed to the idea are the high construction cost and level of danger of nuclear power plants . |
| 16 | However , choosing nuclear energy as an alternative here has many drawbacks in the areas of cleanliness , safety and cost , this can also be reflected in the very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) . |
| 17 | However , base on past nuclear accidents and technical hurdles , some people argue that nuclear power is unstable , extremely dangerous and expensive . |
| 18 | It is very dangerous because nuclear reactors are very likely to explode under the condition of high temperature and pressure . |
| 19 | However , the accidents of reactor meltdown and explosion that happened in the past made the public worried about the safe operation of the nuclear reactors . |
| 20 | Safety is one of the biggest concerns when it comes to nuclear powered reactors , because the result is grievous and devastating if a nuclear reactor accident were to happen . |
| 21 | The public is very concerned about the safety of nuclear power plants and fears that any factors that trigger the explosion of a nuclear reactor will have devastating impact on the people living in the region . |
| 22 | The main reason for public opposition to nuclear energy could be the lack of confidence in the safe operation of nuclear power plants . |
| 23 | Firstly , many people oppose the use of nuclear power as a form of energy because it is expensive to research and build . |
| 24 | The high cost of the funding for the development of nuclear plants has also met with much public discontentment . |
| 25 | There are some barriers that may prevent nuclear energy from developing : it is expensive to build a plant , there may be human errors and it still produces radio-active wastes . |
| 26 | It is true that the generation of electricity in a nuclear power plant produces nuclear waste which is difficult to dispose of and harmful to the public as the effects are devastating . |
| 27 | Although the cost of building a nuclear reactor is great and there are concerns about safety , there are several advantages in using nuclear energy as an energy source . |
| 28 | However , many controversies have emerged over the development of nuclear reactors because of fear of nuclear leakage and accident . |
| 29 | One of the main opposing views is that nuclear energy is a big potential safety hazard because once nuclear leakage happens people 's health and the environment will be seriously threatened ( Cohen ) . |
| 30 | The debate on whether nuclear power should be utilised is due to the highly unpredictable materials used to generate energy and its multiple safety issues . |
| 31 | Nuclear power plants are dangerous as any human errors could result in leakage of radioactive substances , damaging the environment as well as causing deaths . |
| 32 | Critics believe that nuclear power is not safe as it poses a health risk to workers and the public due to low-level radiation from the plants . |
| 33 | Many people believe that nuclear power plant is dangerous as reaction cores have the potential to explode and fuels can release radioactivity which may be fatal to creatures . |
| 34 | However , many negative aspects of nuclear energy , such as radiation pollution , waste heat , greenhouse gas emission etc , also cause people to question its reliability . |
| 35 | Radiation exposure is an inherent part of nuclear energy and some believe that living near a nuclear plant would increase the risk of cancer and that any nuclear accident would result in high casualties . |
| 36 | Another argument from the opponents of nuclear power is that nuclear waste is non-biodegradable and that radiation from the waste is deadly for those who are constantly exposed to it . |
| 37 | Nuclear technology 's military uses make international cooperation in this technology extremely difficult ; the radioactive character of this technology causes a lot of environmental issues and its cost in some applications is still high . |
| 38 | Another challenge faced by the nuclear energy industry against other alternatives of energy is that building of nuclear power plants is very costly and time consuming . |
| 39 | Some people hold the opinions that nuclear energy is very dangerous and building nuclear plants requires a large amount of money , etc . |
| 40 | ( Nuclear power plants , 2009 ) .The proliferation of the new nuclear technology is causing considerable controversy and concern . Opponents say that nuclear reactors may be a serious threat to the world populace as well as the environment . |
| 41 | Although the potential for the uses of nuclear power energy is great , there are a number of opponents with anti-nuclear sentiments preventing the construction of nuclear plants in the past few decades in many countries . |
| 42 | Furthermore , the need for research on heat resistance material and security in the various generation IV reactor concepts is also worrying in terms of the possibilities of nuclear accidents in the future . |
| 43 | The astronomical cost is the reason why many people are against nuclear energy development . |
| 44 | Safety factor is heavily considered because if an accident occurs at nuclear reactor sites , it can result in massive releases of radioactivity . |
| 45 | Like the old nuclear reactors , the promotion of SWCR is opposed by some people because of security , environment , performance and cost issues . |
| 46 | However , the huge cost and the potential danger prevent nuclear plants from being widely accepted . |
| 47 | The problem with nuclear fuel is that it is extremely hazardous and painstaking research into effective tapping of the nuclear energy continues everyday . |
| 48 | Although nuclear energy is an effective energy form , it is quite demanding in terms of technology and the cost may be not acceptable . |
| 49 | The public is concerned about safety in the operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 50 | This is due to nuclear power 's close relation with nuclear weapons and the public 's concerns with the safety of nuclear reactors . |
| 51 | Lastly , the public is concerned about the high price related to the production of nuclear energy . |
| 52 | However , problems come with nuclear power such as accidents of leakage , waste reprocessing and storage , high construction costs , and even the possible use of nuclear fuel for weapons . |
| 53 | Indeed , there are many concerns from the public regarding the safety of nuclear power plants , the disposal of radioactive waste and the cost of electricity consumers will have to pay . |
| 54 | One of the main reasons for the decline is that the nuclear power plant might cause dangerous consequences when it malfunctions , due to its unstable nature . |
| 55 | Another concern about nuclear power is that the radioactive waste is very hard to be dealt with . |
| 56 | There is a need for this development as currently nuclear reactors are not that safe and efficient . |
| 57 | However , these nuclear reactors also have their own disadvantages such as producing radioactive wastes , high cost and safety issues . |
| 58 | Although the public oppose nuclear power due to its dangerous drawbacks on the world and its environment , it is crucial to support and fund further research and development for Very High Temperature Reactors ( VHTR ) . |
| 59 | However , there are many controversies over the use of nuclear power , and many critics criticize its use . |
| 60 | However , the public is very concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 61 | If it is out of control , a nuclear explosion is very likely to happen and the leakage of radiation will make horrible harm to the environment or people around . |
| 62 | Some may argue that nuclear reactors are not safe at all since accidents have happened in history and caused huge disasters . |
| 63 | Nevertheless , the current common nuclear power reactant ( generation | | | ) is not ideal due to its high cost and security considerations . |
| 64 | Public unease over the safety of nuclear technology has historically been the principal opposition against its utilisation . |
| 65 | However , some people may doubt the practicability of building such a high-efficiency nuclear reactor since it operates under such a high temperature . |
| 66 | Given the memories of previous nuclear reactor accidents , the public is concerned a lot about the safety of nuclear plants . |
| 67 | Critics may argue that the security measures used in the nuclear power plants are inadequate , and this will endanger the safety of the people living close to the nuclear power plants . |
| 68 | Firstly , detractors claimed that nuclear reactors and their corresponding researches cost lots of resources and money , so much that it is not economically worth taxpayer 's money to build and research nuclear technologies . |
| 69 | With all these concerns on the use of nuclear power , it seems that nuclear power poses more of a problem than a solution as a beneficial energy source . |
| 70 | Another reason for opposition is the danger of the operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 71 | However , there are many uncertainties regarding safety in the processes found in nuclear power plants . |
| 72 | People fear that the high temperatures will increase the possibilities of having an explosion in the reactors . |
| 73 | Although some scientists argue that nuclear power has negative effects on the environment ( it is not safe or secure ) , there is evidence which shows nuclear power yields great benefits such as protecting the environment and is safer than using traditional power . |
| 74 | People are worried about radiation leaks from nuclear facilities or nuclear waste . |
| 75 | The opponents thought that it was not worthy to generate electricity by nuclear energy because the cost of building nuclear power plants would be an astronomical figure . |
| 76 | Nonetheless , debate on the using of this nuclear reactor has become a hot issue today due to the negative effects that would be brought to humans as well as other living organisms on the earth . |
| 77 | However , further research and development of nuclear power plants could also raise widespread concern for human safety that results from worries about both massive radioactive releases due to power plant meltdown or terrorist attack and the access these nuclear reactors provide to the materials that can be used to make nuclear weapons . |
| 78 | However , some accidents during the decades of the use of nuclear energy resulted in many people worrying about their safety with nuclear energy around them . |
| 79 | Lastly , despite all the safety measures implemented , it is still believed that the nuclear reactors are potentially dangerous . |
| 80 | It has been a strain to convince the public to allow nuclear reactors as they involve large amounts of radioactivity . |
| 81 | Safety is another major concern about nuclear power . |
| 82 | Many people claim that the nuclear energy is unsafe to the environment and health . |
| 83 | In addition , opponents state that the high cost is also a problem of further research for nuclear power . |
| 84 | Many people think that compared with traditional ways of producing electricity , using nuclear reactors is not safe . |
| 85 | Besides the safety and economic issues , some people are worried about the performance of nucleus reactors . |
| 86 | Another major issue with the nuclear plant will be the security aspect of the use of nuclear power . |
| 87 | But things are not always perfect . The cost of this reactor is very high and we still notice some technology gaps for the VHTR , for example , chemical process and the nuclear heat source to each other with regard to temperatures , power levels , and operational pressure. ( .......... . |
| 88 | One of the most controversial issues is the safety of nuclear power plants . |
| 89 | Nuclear reactors produce harmful or even deadly radiation while radioactive nuclear wastes are extremely difficult to handle and may even explode with no warning . |
| 90 | Furthermore , the constant threat of nuclear terrorists and the issue of radiation leakage made nuclear energy even more unpopular . |
| 91 | Critics also claim that there are potential dangers in operating a reactor and disapprovals on high cost to build a VHTR . |
| 92 | Firstly , all stages of the nuclear fuel cycle involve potentially harmful effects on the environment or mankind due to the high reactivity , the radiation emitted by nuclear wastes and the huge heat dissipation during nuclear processes . |
| 93 | However , government policies to promote nuclear energy are still met with resistance from the public . |
| 94 | The reason for opposing nuclear programmes is that nuclear accidents release harmful radiation that has adverse effects on humans and the environment . |
| 95 | This is because once a nuclear reactor accident happens , it would be a huge disaster to both the creatures and the environment within that area . |
| 96 | Given that the cost of the nuclear power plant including the very high temperature reactor is very high and it will take several decades to recover the cost , opponents think it is not reasonable to use the very high temperature reactor . |
| 97 | Efficiency is another problem that challenges many nuclear reactors . |
| 98 | However , some of the public are still concerned about some of the issues associated with nuclear energy , for example cost , safety and performance . |
| 99 | Although the cost of building a nuclear plant is very high and the price of the energy generated is higher than that we have in the market , development on nuclear plants is still a necessity . |
| 100 | There are several disadvantages of using nuclear energy : The funds paid on developing this technology is high , the time taking to explore the technology is long and there exists dangers which can actually be solved . |
| 101 | However , opponents feel that nuclear power is not acceptable mainly due to safety , cost and pollution . |
| 102 | Some people think that the radioactive wastes produced by nuclear reactors are more dangerous than the greenhouse gases . |
| 103 | Although a more serious incident is yet to occur , people are increasingly concerned about the potential hazardous threat posed by nuclear plants . |
| 104 | Although a large scale of energy can be obtained by generating nuclear power , there are critical voices over the use of it in terms of safety concerns and environmental pollutions . |
| 105 | This safety issues arises because of the huge information gap besides the lack of communication and understanding between the experts and the public about the safety measures taken during the operation of nuclear power plant . |
| 106 | Another reason mentioned by the opposition is the extremely large amount of money spent on research and construction of nuclear reactors . |
| 107 | These characteristics demonstrate why the VHTR is such an imperative in the United States ( Wallace , 2005 ) , but due to public opposition , nuclear reactors are perceived as dangerous and unreliable . |
| 108 | Since then , nuclear power has often been thought to be dangerous and therefore undermining the benefits that it can bring about . |
| 109 | Secondly , opponents doubt the safety of using nuclear reactors and the possible hazards that it might pose . |
| 110 | Therefore , nuclear power , although very environmentally- friendly , invokes many security concerns amongst the public . |
| 111 | With these in mind , nuclear reactors pose great threat to humanity . |
| 112 | Opponents of developing nuclear reactors claim that we should not put so much money and effort on such a dangerous plant . |
| 113 | However , there are more weaknesses related to the reactor that may cause the reactor to be considered unsafe . |
| 114 | These two incidents have highlighted the power of nuclear energy , which has caused so much controversy as to whether it is a liability or a source of energy to the world . |
| 115 | There are , however , concerns about nuclear power with respect to its safety , economic viability and waste disposal . |
| 116 | The nuclear-averse public oppose the development of generation IV reactors because they are too costly to build . |
| 117 | Another factor that contributes to the high costs of nuclear plants lies in the operating costs . |
| 118 | First of all , people who do not support the development of nuclear power are worried about the safety during its processing . |
| 119 | To begin with , some of opponents will argue that the cost of building a nuclear reactor is too high and the cost mentioned above generally comprises of research , development , regulation , construction costs , and the contribution to the nuclear waste fund . |
| 120 | The development of nuclear technology was also heavily influenced by public opinion , especially after disastrous accidents occurred in nuclear power stations . |
| 121 | It raised public 's uncertainty about the safety of developing new nuclear power plants . |
| 122 | If there is a nuclear leak or an exposure , the harmful radiation will kill a lot of people1 . |
| 123 | Many people worry about nuclear radiation and other serious accidents . |
| 124 | This means that the electrical power which is generated by nuclear stations is very costly . |
| 125 | With the great destructions done by the explosion of some previous reactors , some people still oppose SWCR for concerning of security and environmental issues . |
| 126 | There are some public concerns regarding the safety and security of nuclear plants . |
| 127 | Another concern on the safety aspect of nuclear plants is radiation leakage due to improper disposal or infrastructure failure which could be caused by a terrorist attack . |
| 128 | Nuclear Reactor Hazards : ongoing dangers of operating nuclear reactors . |
| 129 | Many people doubt the safety of nuclear plants and thus oppose the construction of new nuclear plants . |
| 130 | Another significant opposition to nuclear power is the potential nuclear leakage issue . |
| 131 | Furthermore , the adverse effect of the radiation that remains behind after a nuclear accident will cause devastating effects on the environment and the human population in the area . |
| 132 | Indeed , the aftermath of an explosion of a nuclear power plant would be harmful . |
| 133 | This waste from nuclear energy is extremely dangerous and can be used for the production of nuclear weapons . |
| 134 | However , nuclear power is not an efficient way if we consider the storage and safety issues of nuclear materials as well as the huge cost of nuclear power plant construction ( Hannity , 2009 ) . |
| 135 | Due to the complexity of nuclear reactors , nuclear energy goes wrong easily . |
| 136 | Some people may say that nuclear plants have very high risks . |
| 137 | Many skeptics oppose the idea of building nuclear reactors due to worries of their safe operation . |
| 138 | Though the public may be concerned about the safety of operating a nuclear plant , we should continue to develop nuclear energy as its economic and environmental benefits outweighs its risks . |
| 139 | Besides the cost of electricity , it is important for us to excogitate the safety issues regarding the nuclear power plant . |
| 140 | This is because changing the ways to generate energy is very costly and the safety of such methods is unpredictable . |
| 141 | In addition , there are people worrying about the sustainability of nuclear power . |
| 142 | First of all , oppositions of nuclear technology have argued that nuclear power is unsafe due to its radioactive and explosive nature , and a leakage or accident is likely to cause severe damages and even deaths.TS In the context of VHTR , though explosive and radioactive in nature , it is able to prevent radioactive materials from escaping in the event of a leakage or accident . |
| 143 | The concerns from the public have been a main obstacle for further advancement in nuclear research . |
| 144 | The new nuclear reactor may be high in cost for research but it has better performance , safety and security measures than the old generator plants . |
| 145 | The cost of building a nuclear reactor is very expensive compared to the harnessing of other forms of energy . |
| 146 | However , nuclear power still raises many concerns with regards to cost and security . |
| 147 | Firstly , opponents of using nuclear power plants argue that nuclear power is not a safe technology . |
| 148 | Regarding nuclear power plants , the safety features of the plant is the greatest concern of the public . |
| 149 | Regarding cost , critics might debate that the high financial costs in building nuclear plants worldwide will create a negative impact on the worldwide economy . |
| 150 | Another issue is the problem of managing those radioactive wastes that are generated during the operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 151 | However , the challenges lie in the complication of building a nuclear fission reactor and the lack of funding to carry out research in this area . |
| 152 | Although there are many benefits we can gain from Generation IV reactors , we still have to face the high cost , the danger for nuclear weapons and the difficulty in preventing corrosion of nuclear metallic materials . |
| 153 | One of the public 's concerns over the safety of operating a nuclear plant is the issue of nuclear waste management . |
| 154 | The public are afraid that the high temperatures in the nuclear reactors will be a major hazard for the people working in and those living near the reactors . |
| 155 | So now , people are concerned most about the security of any kind of nuclear plants . |
| 156 | The maintenance cost that is required for each nuclear reactor is much higher than for a conventional energy plant as the safety measures for these plants are much more detailed since it is handling highly reactive substances . |
| 157 | The public often have doubts when it comes to security and safety issues concerning nuclear reactors . |
| 158 | Any flaws in the reactor design or processes could result in disastrous circumstances . |
| 159 | This accident , especially , had caused many to oppose the nuclear power system as they feel that the extent of damage incurred by such systems would be massive and unacceptable . |
| 160 | Many people oppose developing nuclear energy because of the large amount of money required for its infrastructure ( Wald , 2008 ) . |
| 161 | However , critics reject the new concepts of nuclear reactors due to concerns about security , costs and environment . |
| 162 | Nuclear energy is often seen as a bad alternative as it produces lots of radioactive wastes . |
| 163 | The most major concern of the public on nuclear power plants would be its safety . |
| 164 | The costs of the nuclear power may be astronomical as it involves the construction cost , operating cost and cost of waste disposal from the plant . |
| 165 | Opponents of GFR point out that it is inevitable for nuclear reactors to produce radioactive waste which has destructive effects , and due to the high cost of pollutant management , it seems impossible to install nuclear reactors without any radioactive emissions . |
| 166 | Besides the above two factors , some opponents may believe that it is dangerous to use nuclear energy . |
| 167 | Recently , there has been an increasing debate about the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 168 | Since it is much more expensive than the usually used firepower plant , whether nuclear power plants can provide electricity efficiently with a reasonable cost became a rather essential problem . |
| 169 | ( Generation IV International Forum GIF and U.S. Nuclear Energy Research Advisory Committee NERAC ) . This will pose as a threat for workers at the reactors due to the corrosion of the materials . |
| 170 | A major concern in the use of nuclear energy is the issue of safety . |
| 171 | " [ 1 ] The high cost of building nuclear plants is also a main concern . |
| 172 | Opponents are apprehensive about the hazards of nuclear reactors . |
| 173 | For a very long time , many people have been worried about the safety of nuclear energy . |
| 174 | The major refutation to developing nuclear power is about its threat to the safety of the public since conventional nuclear power produces radioactive waste and has a possibility of nuclear power proliferation ( Public Citizen , 2006 ) . |
| 175 | Nuclear accidents are deadly disasters , causing economic losses as well as huge damage to the environment and people 's health . |
| 176 | The chief issue that the public have with nuclear reactors is of course their safety . |
| 177 | opponents also argue that the cost of the nuclear reactor is so high that it is not worth being built . |
| 178 | Concern has been raised about the nuclear waste being produced by nuclear power plants , and also the health effects on the workers or civilians living nearby . |
| 179 | ( World Nuclear Association , 2001 ) . The incident raised the fears of the public over nuclear power . |
| 180 | The use of nuclear power also faces opposition from the public . |
| 181 | Indeed , nuclear power development carries with them a social stigma ; being dangerous and harmful to the society even in the modern world as mankind is skeptical about its use and benefits , and instead are more wary of the few incidents whereby lives were lost . |
| 182 | Some may be too risky or expensive , like the nuclear power . |
| 183 | Nonetheless , VHTR faces material constraints as the materials used to design reactors must be able to withstand continued high temperature , intense bombardment in nuclear proliferation and corrosive reagents . |
| 184 | Next , opponents are concerned about the cost of nuclear energy . |
| 185 | In addition , the need for research on security in various reactor concepts of generation IV is also disturbing . |
| 186 | Furthermore , the nuclear waste emits radiation that is harmful to humans and the environment . |
| 187 | Despite the safety issues , opponents also assert that the government should discourage nuclear power plants because of the high cost incurred to construct them . |
| 188 | Some may argue , with skepticism , that the safety issues of this reactor are still imminent and hence , nuclear power should not be supported . |
| 189 | Therefore building a reactor to run under the conditions of a supercritical-water-cooled reactor could be dangerous . |
| 190 | At such high temperatures , there is a higher possibility of a dangerous melt-down of the reactor . |
| 191 | The public is against the idea of constructing nuclear reactors because they are concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 192 | Certain major accidents in the past which resulted in deaths involved nuclear reactors , so the public are against nuclear reactors . |
| 193 | Lastly , nuclear waste disposal are often thought to be as one of the most important reasons impeding the safety of nuclear power plants . |
| 194 | Otherwise , there will be a shortage of power supply for months in an event of a breakdown ; these nuclear reactors will prove to be a liability , rather than a power generation asset to the public during these periods . |
| 195 | In recent years , a new type of power source , nuclear power has sparked a heated controversy . |
| 196 | The destructive power of nuclear weapon has long been a threat to the entire human being . |
| 197 | Hence , the nuclear power-plant is not as cost efficient as it may seem . |
| 198 | The nuclear-averse public oppose the development of generation IV reactors because they are worried that its waste will pollute the environment . |
| 199 | Another problem is the performance of nuclear power plants with respect to their cost . |
| 200 | Although nuclear power is effective and efficient , it can be incredibly dangerous . |
| 201 | The most criticisms towards nuclear power generators arise from their safety issues . |
| 202 | The accident raised the question about the safety of the nuclear power plant and the ways that people can prevent such accidents in future . |
| 203 | Safety of a nuclear plant is the issue that concerns the public the most . |
| 204 | Some people think that it is too costly to set up and maintain the nuclear reactor . |
| 205 | The nuclear-averse public oppose the development of generation IV reactors because they are afraid such accidents will happen again and cause more damage to the people who live nearby nuclear reactor plants . |
| 206 | One of the major problems related to generating energy from nuclear fuel is the disposal of the spent fuel which is highly radioactive . |
| 207 | The radioactive waste produced in a nuclear process is also dangerous and lasts for a very long time . |
| 208 | The above examples illustrate the potential dangers of nuclear power due to its explosive and radioactive characteristics . |
| 209 | Lastly , the cost to build and experiment on newly designed nuclear reactors may be high , but the advantage that they can produce more energy with the same amount of resources far surpasses the cost involved as the important issue now is to solve the problem of constantly increasing energy demand . |
| 210 | It is expensive to build a new nuclear reactor , taking into consideration the area of land needed , the cost of buying the nuclear fuel for energy processing , the cost of the coolant and the cost of the construction materials . |
| 211 | another opposing view is that the cost of building a nuclear plant is rather high . |
| 212 | However , people are claiming that the construction cost of a nuclear power plant is too high . |
| 213 | Lastly , opponents claim that the cost of building a nuclear reactor is very high . |
| 214 | However , opponents may argue that the funding for such reactors may not be useful as they are expensive to construct and the resources used in the funding of the nuclear reactors could be used to further enhance renewable resources currently available . |
| 215 | Besides , public 's opinions also concern about the problem of performance , the cost and the environment affection if we accept this nuclear reactor . |
| 216 | Nuclear reactors are also expensive to build and maintain . |
| 217 | Another reason for opposition is the high cost of the very high temperature reactor . |
| 218 | Secondly , people may argue that nuclear power is not safe because of the radiation that radioactive materials give out . |
| 219 | In fact , most people are not comfortable with the idea of using nuclear reactors to generate electricity , for good reasons . |
| 220 | They say that the accidents caused by nuclear power plants caused huge harm to humans . |
| 221 | First of all , the public is against the proposal of building nuclear power plant to supply electrical energy as they are very concerned with safety of the plant . |
| 222 | One of the most essential ones is the high cost of a reactor , which will deeply affect the development of the whole nuclear industry . |
| 223 | However , there remains doubt of the safety of nuclear reactors ' operation and hence , the public might not fully . |
| 224 | Hence , they feel that nuclear power is dangerous . |
| 225 | However , this is expensive and inefficient and poses a nuclear proliferation threat . |
| 226 | Another reason for opposition is the disputed performance of VHT reactors . |
| 227 | The nuclear power reactor is a highly hazardous system that requires extremely high reliability and safety . |
| 228 | Another reason why people argue against nuclear power is that people doubt its ability to help ease climate change . |
| 229 | These two factors result in a high cost of nuclear-generated electricity which disables nuclear power from competing with other clean energy technologies like solar energy and wind energy . |
| 230 | However , the large amount of R&D funding needed for Generation IV nuclear reactors has made the development of nuclear power a controversial issue . |
| 231 | However , many people fear nuclear reactors because they are not assured of their safety . |
| 232 | When people began to use controlled chain reaction , they were really concerned about the radiation and the impact on environment . |
| 233 | Critics may argue that the environmental effects caused by nuclear accidents are dangerous and harmful . |
| 234 | Another concern from the public on nuclear power will be its cost . |
| 235 | Despite the benefits of nuclear energy , few nuclear reactors have been built in the past few decades in many countries due to public opposition . |
| 236 | The sustainability of nuclear power is questionable . |
| 237 | However , due to the strong oppositions from the public about the safety of nuclear power plants , many countries are caught in the dilemma of whether they should build a nuclear plant or not . |
| 238 | The proponents emphasized its high energy potential while the opponents were so much concerned about its radioactive nature that might cause harm . |
| 239 | Secondly , opponents claim that an explosion may occur because the materials used for constructing the reactor are not strong enough to overcome both high operating temperature and pressure . |
| 240 | Opponents might also argue that nuclear reactors are expensive to construct . |
| 241 | There are concerns about producing nuclear energy with regards to its cost , security and performance . |
| 242 | Firstly , the public has always held the view that nuclear reactors are unsafe to use as they emit substances which are hazardous to people 's health and the environment . |
| 243 | However , with increasing public opposition to nuclear technology due to the harmful effects of the radiation produced , in recent years more plants have shut down than new ones opening . |
| 244 | Besides safety issues , the security of the nuclear reactors is another point brought up by critics . |
| 245 | Opponents of the use of nuclear power claim that it has negative impact on the environment because of some accidents which had happened before . |
| 246 | First of all , opponents state that nuclear power has some safety problems . |
| 247 | Critics of nuclear energy claim that nuclear energy generation produces a large amount of radioactive waste products and eventually , storage spaces will run out , making nuclear energy unsustainable . |
| 248 | Security issues tied with nuclear power plants have been a very sensitive topic as political leaders have to account for the internal and international security of their country . |
| 249 | Any malfunctioning of the cooling agent will have devastating consequences when the nuclear plant melts . |
| 250 | The effects of a nuclear plant accident are devastating . |
| 251 | The decommissioning cost of a nuclear reactor can sometimes be higher . |
| 252 | Regarding performance , critics might strongly argue that the frequent unplanned nuclear shutdowns [ 6 ] would make nuclear power the most inefficient energy among all energy sources . |
| 253 | As a result , the reactor may explode because of excessive pressure and release large amounts of radioactivity . |
| 254 | Security issue against terrorist attacks and the use of the energy for nuclear weapons is a major concern when we think about nuclear power . |
| 255 | Some may say that a nuclear plant is dangerous , after experiencing nuclear accidents in the last few decades . |
| 256 | Another concern regarding nuclear power plants is how to dispose of the nuclear wastes which are long lasting , radioactive and toxic . |
| 257 | The public tend to moan about the high economic cost necessary in building and maintaining a nuclear plant . |
| 258 | Opponents also claim that constructing nuclear power reactors is a huge capital-intensive project , which requires intensive investment of money and research . |
| 259 | When it comes to the cost , many people may think building nuclear reactors is quite an expensive process . |
| 260 | Typically , the investment cost of a nuclear power plant is much higher due to its design . |
| 261 | Nuclear plants are more expensive to build than the other energy sources , but it is a premium that we have to pay to obtain a reliable and consistent supply of energy to drive our economic progress . |
| 262 | Thus , the huge amount of funds pumped into research and development on nuclear power , which will not support us for the long run , is not cost-effective . |
| 263 | Some people think that a nuclear power plant is expensive to build due to the advanced technology and the quality of the structures it requires . |
| 264 | People believe that it would be costly to start up a new nuclear industry . |
| 265 | The cost is a major is issue in constructing a nuclear power planet . |
| 266 | Opponents of R&D funding for generation IV reactors claim that nuclear plants are very dangerous ( Ashcroft , 2008 ) because of the radioactive wastes and the radioactive materials that escape from the reactors ( Ashcroft , 2008 ) . |
| 267 | Opponents may insist that it is very expensive to build and operate nuclear reactors . |
| 268 | Therefore , safety becomes the main concern when people choose to continue using nuclear power . |
| 269 | People also argue that developing nuclear power technology and constructing nuclear power plants are too expensive and it is not worthwhile since other cleaner energy sources could be cheaper in the future ( Public Citizen , 2006 ) . |
| 270 | However , converting nuclear power into usable energy is not a simple process . |
| 271 | Opponents may also say that such nuclear reactor 's performance is doubtful . |
| 272 | One of the Achilles ' heels of nuclear power plants is the danger of radioactive radiation leakage to the environment . |
| 273 | Safety issues involved in generation IV reactors are mainly on temperature and chemical reactions during high pressure operations . |
| 274 | Opponents of nuclear energy argued that nuclear power plants increase the health risk of workers and residents living in the vicinity of the reactor . |
| 275 | There are fears that the reactor may get overheated as it operates at very high temperatures . |
| 276 | However , according to Power Uprate Safety & Containment Overpressure ( 2005 ) , the major safety problem for the reactor is that the balance of energy generated and energy removed may be affected due to some reason . |
| 277 | Also , destruction of nuclear plant will emit radioactive substances which will be detrimental to the whole world ( Elder & Allen , 2009 ) . |
| 278 | In contrast to the two other alternative sources of energy , the cost of building a nuclear reactor is higher than a wind turbine or solar panel . |
| 279 | Lastly , nuclear power might be more cost effective as compared to the conventional thermal power stations . However the cost of constructing the plant is significantly higher , as well as the operational and waste disposal costs . |
| 280 | The safety issue of nuclear reactors is directly linked to the risk of radioactive emissions . |
| 281 | Although nuclear power as a source of energy has its disadvantages , it must be noted that no single source of power supply is perfect . |
| 282 | However , people opposed the usage of nuclear power . |
| 283 | However , with increasing demands for energy due to industrialization and the rising price of oil and fossil fuel , nuclear energy remains as an important source of energy despite all the controversies . |
| 284 | However , people do n't realize that there will be many problems caused by using nuclear technology , in terms of environment , cost , and nature resources . |
| 285 | In my opinion , there is no future for nuclear power because : chances of an accident which will release radioactive waste into the atmosphere is too high , there are still no safe solutions for the growing pile of deadly radioactive wastes , and reprocessing of this energy is dirty , dangerous and costly . |
| 286 | Despite the huge economic and social benefits , the technical hurdles involved in building the reactors are difficult to overcome . |
| 287 | Finally , opponents also claim that a nuclear reactor should not be built due to its high cost . |
| 288 | The development of nuclear plants , especially the Very High Temperature Reactor , would prevent this . |
| 289 | The public is very concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors and there have been debates on whether the Generation IV nuclear reactor should be built or not . |
| 290 | Safety issues raised by past nuclear accidents still strike fear in the public 's heart . |
| 291 | In addition , the cost of constructing nuclear reactors must be , given the economic constraints today . |
| 292 | People are mostly concerned about public health and safety caused by radioactive exposures . |
| 293 | Firstly , the main public concern on nuclear power is its safety . |
| 294 | Besides the safety , some people are also concerned about security of nuclear power . |
| 295 | It is very expensive to construct and maintain and run a nuclear power plant . |
| 296 | Although the nuclear industry faces a lot of challenges in the form of nuclear accidents , high capital costs of constructing new plants , and the need to establish final repositories for spent nuclear fuel , the nuclear energy industry has experienced economic and regulatory recovery in many parts of the world in recent years . |
| 297 | Cost and security are the two main reasons for opposition to nuclear power technology in many countries . |
| 298 | Lastly , many opponents still doubt the performance of nuclear reactors . |
| 299 | Otherwise , the degree of destruction would be more fatal than those mistakes in operating nuclear power plants . |
| 300 | With regard to safety , people are usually afraid of the accident caused by the nuclear reactors . |
| 301 | Some people think that nuclear reactors are not safe . |
| 302 | The costs of nuclear reactors which consists of the construction cost , operating cost and decommissioning cost are very high . |
| 303 | Although nuclear power plants ' construction cost is much higher compared to the cost of other alternative sources , for example , solar panels and wind turbines , nuclear power has efficiency output and sustainable energy . |
| 304 | As a result , one small mistake of a worker could lead to a huge damage to the plant and also to the surrounding environment especially for nuclear plant . |
| 305 | Most of the public has the misconception that nuclear energy is expensive , therefore opposing it . |
| 306 | Secondly , the amount of radioactive waste emitted by the nuclear power plant is also harmful to the earth , and yet , these nuclear plants release large amounts of highly radioactive compound . |
| 307 | However , although the cost of building nuclear plants is high , future benefits from nuclear power will be able to boost the economy greatly . |
| 308 | The waste and pollution produced by nuclear reactors is a worrying issue to both the environmentalists and the public , however the U.S. Department of Energy ( DOE ) has already considered this issue and more attention is paid to it . |
| 309 | Another significant drawback , perhaps is the greatest problem which often associated with nuclear energy , is that of nuclear waste disposal . |
| 310 | Another reason why the public and environmentalists oppose the building of nuclear power plants is that the radioactive waste produced by nuclear power plants will remain radioactive for hundred over years . |
| 311 | There are always concerns about the safe operations of nuclear reactors , opponents of the supporters of nuclear reactors note that the public 's irrational fears towards radiation . |
| 312 | The public perceive that nuclear energy is more expensive than conventional energy sources ( Hughes , 1999 ) and thus oppose the use of nuclear power . |
| 313 | The main misconception about nuclear energy is its radiation and its possibility to explode once it is under attack . |
| 314 | However , nuclear power plants sometimes could cause disasters . |
| 315 | Consequences of nuclear disasters are still among the most fearful images of the human race . |
| 316 | However , after major nuclear incidents such as the Chernobyl disaster , the general public have became skeptical about the safety of nuclear power . |
| 317 | The cost of power generation by nuclear means is still higher as compared to that of fossil fuels . |
| 318 | As a major controversy about spreading atomic technology in the world in generating electricity , public safety concerns have accompanied the development of nuclear energy since its birth . |
| 319 | Many people think that we should not waste money on nuclear energy because the cost of handling or building a nuclear power plant is very high ; we can use the money to contribute to research on finding alternative energy or the development of alternative energy sources like solar and wind energy . |
| 320 | They also argue that nuclear reactors are not safe as there have been previous accidents in nuclear plants . |
| 321 | It is not only very costly to build a nuclear power plant , but also , the cost for waste recycling process is extremely big . |
| 322 | Nuclear plants are indeed high-risk considering the huge capital outlay by the authorities . |
| 323 | Thirdly , opponents of nuclear power plants worry that the disposal of radioactive waste from the plants will cause serious illness or even death to people who live or work near the place . |
| 324 | The construction of the plant is costly as it requires materials that can withstand the extreme heat and corrosive operating condition of the reactor . |
| 325 | Opponents also maintain that nuclear power is not safe . |
| 326 | An explosion of a nuclear reactor occurs due to either excessively high temperature or excessively high pressure . |
| 327 | Still , after many years , there are several factors against building new nuclear reactors . |
| 328 | Furthermore , there is widespread information that nuclear energy is the most expensive and unreliable source of energy . |
| 329 | Secondly , most people are concerned about the safety of running a nuclear power plant . |
| 330 | Another drawback of nuclear energy is the cost factor . |
| 331 | Although nuclear energy is expensive now , we should be far-sighted and consider the potential of nuclear energy becoming an affordable energy source in the future . |
| 332 | This is because opponents of nuclear power claim that it is not safe . |
| 333 | At present , to build a nuclear reactor is still costly . |
| 334 | However , we can not deny the fact that nuclear energy will produce radioactive wastes that raise the concern of the public . |
| 335 | Thus , due to nuclear technology 's special application in military work and the complex international situation , it may be difficult for some countries to master nuclear technology resulting in what is described as proliferation resistance ( International Atomic Energy Agency , 2004 ) . |
| 336 | And many countries are still wondering whether to build nuclear power plants because they cost a lot of money and citizens are not willing to pay their tax for that . |
| 337 | This is one of the reasons why opponents among the public do not wish for nuclear reactors to be built . |
| 338 | However , the high temperature and corrosive operating conditions of the MSR require materials that exceed the limitations of current nuclear reactors . |
| 339 | However , the reactor used in fact lacked some basic engineering provisions for safety , probably due to technological constraints at that time . |
| 340 | The most heated argument is how to ensure the safety of the operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 341 | Thirdly , critics argue that the nuclear reactors are producing radioactive waste and this waste can harm the environment around the reactors . |
| 342 | So despite its high initial capital cost and operation , nuclear power is still competitive with fossil fuel for electricity generation . |
| 343 | It is true that the nuclear reactors generate radioactive waste , with high doses of these substances can kill and cause cancer to human . |
| 344 | The second factor that concerns public is whether nuclear energy is the main contribution to the Global warming and causing climate change . |
| 345 | Last but not least , some people say that the heavy metals in nuclear wastes may cause a lot of environmental problems . |
| 346 | Another argument against nuclear power is the security concern . |
| 347 | The economics for overall nuclear reactors are hard to estimate . |
| 348 | As a result , the public has been reluctant about the use of nuclear power as a source of energy . |
| 349 | This is because nuclear plants are not able to generate energy at the same cost compare to conventional method . |
| 350 | To summarize , nuclear power has various that could affect the well-being of our environment and health that can not be neglected despite its numerous benefits . |
| 351 | About the negative effects , the first argument concerns the impact of radiation on humans due to the routine operation of a nuclear plant . |
| 352 | In response to the mounting threat of terrorism , country leaders are concerned with the security and safety aspects of nuclear plants . |
| 353 | Although the nuclear power plant is considered safer and cleaner than fossil power plants , the devastating consequences of its occasional meltdowns deter the general public and policy makers from accepting it . |
| 354 | Secondly , some people may think that nuclear reactors will require a lot of money to build and need high technology equipment . |
| 355 | In recent years , despite the contentious debate of using nuclear power to meet our ever-increasing energy needs , the world has started to consider nuclear energy as a future fuel source which is believed to more environmentally friendly compared to fossil fuels . |
| 356 | The issue of safety is of utmost concern in the debate of whether nuclear reactors should even be in operation . |
| 357 | On the other hand , the modern energy resources like nuclear power still can not be widely applied since no good solution has been found for its deadly radioactive nuclear wastes . |
| 358 | All these costs incurred by the nuclear reactor are much more hurting to the economy rather than easing the financial pressure for countries . |
| 359 | This is mainly due to the fear and anticipation of possible accidents in nuclear power plants . |
| 360 | On the other hand , as for the Very High Temperature reactor , big safety provisions have to be considered to ensure its stability under high temperatures and a multitude of coolants are needed . |
| 361 | On the other hand , the wastes produced by nuclear plants are highly radioactive and can not be easily disposed . |
| 362 | Their concern would be the safety of the public in case of a nuclear meltdown . |
| 363 | Accidents that have happened and serve as evidence of the dangers involving nuclear reactors . |
| 364 | Most opponents claim that although rare , nuclear plant accidents are too catastrophic and should not be encouraged for power generation . |
| 365 | However in the case for ( SFR ) , the lack of natural circulation means that the reactivity of the coolant will increase , leading to a possible meltdown of the reactor ( Tucek , 2005 ) . |
| 366 | They declare that the nuclear reactions which may be termed as nuclear fission and nuclear fusion are extremely dangerous and even fatal to human beings . |
| 367 | Contrary to the opposition to nuclear power , which is not convincing , nuclear power has advantages in many areas . |
| 368 | The second controversial topic about nuclear power is its high cost . |
| 369 | Thirdly , people oppose the development of nuclear power due to the problem of long term radiation influence caused by nuclear wastes . |
| 370 | However , the one reason why few nuclear reactors have been built over the years is public opposition . |
| 371 | In contrast to other accidents , nuclear accidents are given more media coverage sparking public disapproval . |
| 372 | Opponents argue mainly about the security and cost of the very high temperature reactor . |
| 373 | They say that the non-recyclable radioactive waste in the VHTR reactor can harm the environment and people 's health . |
| 374 | At the same time , just like any other forms that could be used to generate electricity , nuclear power is not a perfect source of energy . |
| 375 | There are still a lot of people worrying about the nuclear waste of the supercritical water reactor ( U.S. environmental Protection Angency , 2004 ) . |
| 376 | In addition , power reactor plants are dealing with very-high-temperature reactors ; some of the reactors like Gas-cooled fast reactors and Supercritical-water-cooled reactors even need high pressure to operate . |
| 377 | Scientists debate whether using a large amount of nuclear power as an energy resource might bring human benefits . |
| 378 | They are also concerned that the new reactors will reenact the events leading to past disastrous nuclear accidents that had resulted in high fatality . |
| 379 | Lastly , people claimed that nuclear power can not perform as well as other sources of energy since it is not sustainable ( Langwith , 2009 ) . |
| 380 | Any accidents could lead to widespread damage and nobody can afford another radioactive leakage which could signal the end of nuclear energy . |
| 381 | Some people feel that radioactive waste is the main problem of nuclear energy source because it causes cancer . |
| 382 | However , people are worried about the waste of the conventional reactor which takes millions of years to decay . |
| 383 | Opponents mention that the cost of building a nuclear plant will be very expensive due to the high capital costs and licensing uncertainties associated with the construction ( Goswami & Kreith , 2008 ) . |
| 384 | They say that there are several records of cost overruns of building nuclear plants and the high construction costs have been and will continue to be the " economic Achilles ' heel of the nuclear plants " . |
| 385 | Nowadays , many people still resist nuclear power because of its so-called danger , its waste and the fear of terrorists . |
| 386 | Opponents were not satisfied with the performance of the nuclear reactor because the efficiency of current LWRs is 33 % and that of heat engines 20 % to 30 % . |
| 387 | People are firstly concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 388 | The construction of each nuclear plant can cost several billion dollars due to changing regulatory delays , safety scares and multiple subcontractors working on cost plus basis . |
| 389 | There has been opposition which has been further research and development of the VHTR due to high costs , unsafe conditions and low efficiency of the VHTR . |
| 390 | There is a huge misunderstanding that the radioactive waste is more dangerous than waste from other types of power system . |
| 391 | However , opponents may point out that this high thermal efficiency is achieved at the expense of operating under very high temperature and pressure , which could increase its potential danger . |
| 392 | Reprocessing the nuclear waste requires great economic and political cost . |
| 393 | The development of nuclear generator IV requires much R&D and high technology ; thus , local workforce might not have enough talented labour to support the operation . |
| 394 | Hence , the treatment of nuclear waste is a major public concern . |
| 395 | Barriers to using nuclear power for mitigation of global warming . |
| 396 | Those against the development of nuclear power claim that it is safety threatening , costly in research and building plants , and not renewable ( Public Citizen , 2006 ) . |
| 397 | In the long run , after considering the higher capital cost , financing costs and operating costs of a nuclear reactor , a nuclear reactor would still produce much cheaper electricity when compared with other alternative energy sources such as wind energy . |
| 398 | However , that is the bad way of using of nuclear technology . The nuclear reactor can be used to develop cutting-edge medical technology , for instance , in cancer treatment , gamma camera , radiation therapy and so on . |
| 399 | Operational safety is a prime concern for people working in nuclear plants . |
| 400 | This can be attributed to the fact that the public are not well informed about nuclear energy . |
| 401 | The two accidents caused people who lived nearby the nuclear reactors to suffer from the radiation . |
| 402 | However , with higher pressure , the possibility of an explosion is also greater since a larger force is exerted on the wall of the reactor . |
| 403 | Thirdly , the challenge faced by the countries to isolate the leftover , highly radioactive material discharged by the nuclear power plant is also a main reason why it is in decline . |
| 404 | Therefore , it sparked a significant controversy of whether the nuclear power should be reconsidered . |
| 405 | The waste disposal cost of a nuclear power plant is higher than a conventional thermal station . |
| 406 | Opponents of nuclear power technology argue over the security of such technology . |
| 407 | Some argue that we should not be investing into nuclear energy as it is expensive to build and run and that it is not a renewable energy source , hence we should invest into renewable energies which are more sustainable . |
| 408 | Firstly , proponents of SCWR claimed that the very high-temperature concept of VHTR reactor can be detrimental to safety if a loss-of-coolant accident ( LOCA ) occurs . |
| 409 | Opponents argue that the VHTR 's very high operating temperature may lead to similar accidents due to reactor meltdown if it were to be built . |
| 410 | Therefore , nuclear energy may not be a desirable alternative . We should put more of our focus on better energy sources like solar power . |
| 411 | However , each reactor has its pros and cons in term of security , cost and performance . |
| 412 | In conclusion , all the following aspects such as the security , safety and costs component for a nuclear reactor indicate far more disadvantages and risks compared to the advantages that the nuclear reactor brings about . |
| 413 | The capital cost of nuclear power plants construction is extremely high and it is increasing as years go by . |
| 414 | Nuclear reactors are often believed to be accompanied with the danger of leak and explosion . |
| 415 | Furthermore , nuclear power is often associated with terms like radiations , weapons of mass destruction , high maintenance cost , and targets for terrorism . |
| 416 | As for the environmental factor with regards to using nuclear energy , opponents of nuclear energy may argue that nuclear power plant produces waste that is not environmental friendly . |
| 417 | Secondly , with nuclear power being a dangerous source when explosions happen , safety has always been a concern throughout the world . |
| 418 | Thirdly , people are worrying about the waste of nuclear power , because the waste of reactor is normally radioactive . |
| 419 | Nuclear power is more costly than other energy sources . |
| 420 | As a result of scary impressions left by two severe nuclear plants accidents in history , many people reject VHTR because of the security issue . |
| 421 | Firstly , high construction costs are incurred when building the plant for Very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) due to the requirements of the reactor . |
| 422 | However , not all countries can afford the price of building up a nuclear power plant . |
| 423 | Waste from the nuclear facility is another major issue . |
| 424 | The first opinion that opposes the building of nuclear plants is the people 's fear of danger . |
| 425 | ( What is nuclear waste , n.d. ) It is very hard to recycle or dispose of those wastes due to their unique nature , like the wastes produced by VHTR . |
| 426 | Among all these new kinds of energy , nuclear energy is regarded as the most controversial one which has been the hotspot since its appearance . |
| 427 | The price for a small mistake in the pursuit of nuclear energy is too much for mankind to pay . |
| 428 | [ 5 ] Moreover , there are still many doubts about whether nuclear power has a competitive edge over other energy providers in terms of performance . |
| 429 | " Nuclear Power Is More Costly than Other Energy Sources . |
| 430 | There are also worries about the accidents caused during processes of coolant depressurization and decay heat removal because GFR has to be operated in an environment of both high pressure and temperature . |
| 431 | A possible problem to lower energy costs could surface as the price for raw materials for Nuclear Energy increases . |
| 432 | Secondly , machinery required in nuclear plants is extremely costly because it has to be constructed with high precision to prevent any form of nuclear leak . |
| 433 | The question of whether we should have nuclear power plants as an energy resource is controversial . |
| 434 | Nowadays people argue about the safety and economic cost of nuclear power generation and they doubt its ability to help ease climate change as well asserted specifically by some scientists . |
| 435 | Opponents are also worried about the difficulty in controlling the temperature of the VHTR in the event of an accident . |
| 436 | Though it may not be the optimal design because of its potential risks and limitations , the LFR is still one of the possible future energy plants . |
| 437 | Current renewable sources such as solar power , wind power and hydroelectric power are not sufficient to keep up with the growing demands . |
| 438 | However , the general public is still cautious about accepting nuclear power as a viable energy source . |
| 439 | The cost of building a nuclear plant is admittedly more that for than other kinds of power plants but the consideration should be based on performance and cost per unit energy . |
| 440 | And they are not wrong in thinking that , given that the radioactive uranium used as fuel is inherently dangerous , being extremely lethal to human health and polluting to the environment . |
| 441 | What was worse , further explosions and the resulting fire sent a plume of highly radioactive fallout into the atmosphere and covered an extensive geographical area which in fact became a nightmare for the local people . |
| 442 | However , when we consider the high cost to build and maintain the reactors , the Generation IV reactors are not so attractive . |
| 443 | Another concern from the public opposition is that nuclear reactors should not be used in medical research because they pose a danger to the people using nuclear power for their medical researches . |
| 444 | For the past few decades up till now , nuclear power has faced strong opposition from people worldwide . |
| 445 | A highly pressurized system is dangerous and needs to be consistently monitored to ensure a safe operation as stresses acting on the pipes and vessel can cause the system to explode . |
| 446 | Furthermore , most of the current reactors and generation IV concepts require high pressure and high temperature to optimize the energy output . |
| 447 | In addition , nuclear energy , though expensive , can be produced in abundance to meet the ever increasing demand for energy . |
| 448 | Taking safety into account , opponents of nuclear reactors state accidents in the past to prove that they is not safe . |
| 449 | Moreover , detractors have argued that the high temperature generated in nuclear reactors is not fully utilized and conventional non-nuclear energy generation methods have better performance in terms of thermal efficiency . Existing nuclear plants have thermal efficiency of approximately 33 % ( Olander , 2009 ) compared to 70 % and above for non-nuclear power plants . |
| 450 | Secondly , numerous people are holding the view that the nuclear reactor still holds huge potential safety risks . |
| 451 | They think that nuclear waste is radioactive and may cause health problems to the people around the reactor . |
| 452 | One reason that impedes the continuation of research of the molten salt reactor is the general caution on the issue of nuclear waste proliferation . |
| 453 | Nuclear reactors haven been mistaken for a time bomb waiting to explode anytime because of the tremendous pressure contained inside . |
| 454 | For quite some time now , there has been concern among the pubic over the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 455 | The public has been concerned about the danger of radiation leaks from nuclear plants , especially after the Chernobyl incident in 1986 when the massive radiation exposure directly caused approximately 250 deaths ( WHO , 2005 ) . |
| 456 | Nevertheless , the high operating temperature and pressure and corrosive operating conditions of the VHTR require materials that surpass the limitations of current nuclear reactors ( Generation IV Nuclear Reactor Comparisons , 2008 ) . |
| 457 | They also need to address the fears of the public so that people are more aware of the advantages of nuclear energy . |
| 458 | It is a psychological effect on human , whereby the aftermath will result in opposition to nuclear energy by the public . |
| 459 | ( Advanced Reactors , 2009 ) The construction of wind turbines and solar panels is very space consuming because of their low energy efficiency and they are unreliable as they are weather dependent . |
| 460 | Although it costs a great amount of money , those nuclear countries are still improving their nuclear capabilities . |
| 461 | Some argue that a nuclear reactor is too costly to build and that they should adopt other renewable energies instead of nuclear power ( Totty , 2008 ) , while others argue that developing countries do not have enough skilled labour to cope with the needs of building and operating nuclear reactors ( Squassoni , 2009 ) . |
| 462 | A major constraint of nuclear power is the tricky issue of waste disposal . |
| 463 | Risks of nuclear power . |
| 464 | Also public opposition was given as one reason why few nuclear reactors have been built in the past few decades in many countries . |
| 465 | Other than this international regulation , environmental concern is also an important determining factor in shaping nuclear technological innovation . |
| 466 | Lastly , the lack of technology to deal with the disposal of nuclear wastes which are radioactive and highly toxic is the last reason preventing countries from using nuclear energy . |
| 467 | The sheer number of people affected in one nuclear accident is far more than the number of accidental deaths that happened in conventional energy plants over the years . |
| 468 | Since the introduction of nuclear-powered generators , public opposition is one of the reasons why only limited nuclear reactors have been built in the past . |
| 469 | The problem for today , however , is that " there is a huge information gap between specialists on the exposures from nuclear power and the public " ( Ilan Lipper & Jon Stone . |
| 470 | A majority of the public have been opposing the development of nuclear plants around their living areas . |
| 471 | As the result , many people are afraid of nuclear power even until today . |
| 472 | However , during that time the nuclear reactors were not well developed . |
| 473 | The waste management is another problematic issue in the current generation III nuclear reactors . |
| 474 | Consequently , the public claims that nuclear power wastes create a high degree of proliferation risks and until today there is no solution for it . |
| 475 | Workers working in a nuclear plant are prone to radiation doses . |
| 476 | Since VHTR is operated at a very high temperature and pressure condition , the materials must be able to resist continued high temperature , pressure , corrosive reagents and intense bombardment by neutrons . |
| 477 | Opponents argue mostly about the huge destructiveness in an accident and the hidden radioactive pollution . |
| 478 | Some people believe that some design problems of the nuclear plant system could not have been properly solved with the condition of technology at that time . |
| 479 | This causes citizens to oppose strongly against the nuclear waste being stored near them . |
| 480 | This is due to memories of past accidents involving the partial meltdown of nuclear nuclear reactors . |
| 481 | CITATION Why06 \ l 2052 ( Why use Nuclear Power ? , 2006 ) Such a situation indicates that the new dawn of the nuclear power is at the corner although it means that the public have to struggle to restore their confidence ruined by the past appalling accidents of nuclear power plants . |
| 482 | Opponents of nuclear power claim that the meltdown of the plant is one major reason why it should not exist . |
| 483 | Public opposition was one reason why few nuclear reactors have been built in the past few decades in many countries . |
| 484 | The leakage of radioactive gas into the atmosphere prompted the many anti-nuclear demonstrations that sprang up across America in the following months . |
| 485 | ( Umeda , 2008 . However , many people strongly oppose this new prototype due to their inherent fear about nuclear plants . |
| 486 | A number of oppositions were raised to stop the funding for the six generation IV reactor concepts because of not only the security risk but the inefficiency and the great cost as well . |
| 487 | The final argument advanced by opponents of nuclear power is that nuclear energy is too expensive . |
| 488 | Since the first use of nuclear reactor as electricity generator in 1957 , the public has been very concerned about its safe operation ( { Matthew } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.nytimes.com/info/nuclear-energy/ ] , n.d. ) . |
| 489 | cost has always been one of the biggest issues of building a nuclear reactor . |
| 490 | It was pointed out that the costs of constructing a nuclear plant , decommissioning nuclear facilities and the costs of storing nuclear waste are expensive . |
| 491 | Thus , nuclear waste has not only occupied space , it costs even more to solve the problem . |
| 492 | To conclude , the nuclear-averse public oppose the development of generation IV reactors because they do not fully understand the concept of generation IV reactors . |
| 493 | Nevertheless , the first reason that the public is concerned over the funding of generation IV nuclear reactors is that the nuclear reactors will not reduce greenhouse-gas emissions as compared to natural gas and oil use ( Nature , 2008 ) . |
| 494 | First of all , the costs of new energies such as solar electricity are much higher compared with traditional ones . |
| 495 | This means that if there is a break in the pipe , coolant will be lost and cause the reactor to heat up very quickly , resulting in the release of toxic gases and fission products into the environment . |
| 496 | However , the capital needed to set up a nuclear plant is extremely high . |
| 497 | Even though the cost of building a nuclear plant is very high , the operating cost is relatively low . |
| 498 | Nuclear Power Is More Costly than Other Energy Sources . |
| 499 | However , many people are still concerned about the risk of the nuclear energy and aftermath consequences which last long to disperse as what happened in the World War II . |
| 500 | Most people are aware that building a nuclear plant is expensive . |
| 501 | They also show statistics proving that although the construction cost of nuclear reactors is significantly higher , once the reactors are built , the nuclear generation cost is comparable to other energy sources . |
| 502 | It is true that building a nuclear plant is expensive but with more research and development in it , the cost will be lowered in the near future with better design . |
| 503 | Nuclear waste is full of radiation which can easily destroy our body . |
| 504 | Hence , it would be unfair to compare the nuclear generators with traditional power plants . |
| 505 | This was very dangerous when excess steam was produced ; especially this system was not incorporated with good safety features . |
| 506 | There are two major safety problems of building nuclear plants . |
| 507 | However , there is also proof that some of the new generation reactors can not fulfill their promise . |
| 508 | The start up cost of a nuclear power plant is expensive . |
| 509 | Due to extreme operational conditions , Gen IV systems could even turn out to be more dangerous than currently operated installations CITATION Aus09 \ l 1033 ( Austrian Institue of Ecology ) . |
| 510 | Opponents ' views are that the very high pressure SCWR requires may pose risks , which is indeed a realistic concern . |
| 511 | To sum up , the nuclear reactor is a necessary evil . |
| 512 | Articles have shown that many experts agree that nuclear power costs significantly higher relative to the other major energy sources . |
| 513 | Everyone knows that nuclear reaction produces a lot of radiation waste which will harm human health . |
| 514 | A nuclear plant operates at extremely high temperatures and it relies heavily on coolants to reduce temperature . |
| 515 | Therefore , nuclear power , in terms of cost , is not exactly a viable option even though its very energy- efficient . |
| 516 | Critics often said that the overall cost for using nuclear energy has increased over the years and was relatively high ( Jack & Nicolas , 2008 ) . |
| 517 | In conclusion , the supercritical-water-cooled reactors should not receive further research and development funding for it , the rise of terrorism and the making of nuclear bombs from nuclear waste make nuclear reactors a controversial issue . |
| 518 | However , advocates may argue that water in such nuclear reactor behaves differently due to the high pressurization required for it to reach a temperature of as high as 300 Degrees Celsius . |
| 519 | The devastating damage and long-term , " chronic " consequences of the two nuclear disasters at Hiroshima and Nagasaki still remind us about how dangerous this type of weapons is . |
| 520 | However , the public professes strong opposition against the building of nuclear reactors . |
| 521 | Developing a new generation of nuclear reactor costs us not only a huge amount of money , but also a lot of time and manpower . |
| 522 | Since uranium reserves are difficult to find through present technologies , the cost of applying uranium technology as energy source is relatively high compared with gasoline and natural gas ( Du & Parsons , 2009 ) . |
| 523 | Since the beginning of nuclear power , radioactive waste has remained a major problem . |
| 524 | Opponents may claim that nuclear power plants are incapable of making significant changes to the climate and will even appear as an environmental risk . |
| 525 | According to the goal of the design of the very high temperature reactor , besides electricity , the very high temperature reactor can also provide heat which can be used for industry processes . |
| 526 | Moreover , SCWR is operating under very high temperature and pressure , which makes SCWR less likely to be further developed . |
| 527 | DOE realises that nuclear energy has a reputation as a polluting technology , hence it must be addressed ( Numark , 2000 ) . |
| 528 | Secondly , the reactor has been designed with a lot of safety concerns in mind . |
| 529 | The public has been rejecting the construction of nuclear plants due to safety concerns . |
| 530 | For the generation IV nuclear reactor systems , the cost of the individual reactors varies and some are far more costly than others . |
| 531 | However , based on generation cost , nuclear power plants have a significant economic advantage over conventional power plants . |
| 532 | No wonder the destructive force of nuclear weapons is terrible . |
| 533 | Fire is an energy which could be employed to sustain life but at the same time , mismanagement could lead to devastating consequences . |
| 534 | Another issue widely discussed by the public is the issue of nuclear waste . |
| 535 | However , if there is a large break in the feed water lines , the heating of fuel will be rapid and this will result in an emergency . |
| 536 | Critics argue that nuclear reactors generate nuclear pollution and can do little help in containing the amount green house gases . |
| 537 | It is true that to develop and build a nuclear plant will cost a lot of money , but the cost is reasonable . |
| 538 | As a result of such overheating under high pressure an immense amount of steam is produced if uncontrolled . This causes the system to explode . |
| 539 | Nuclear and radiation accidents have alerted the critics . |
| 540 | Besides the concern about safety design , sceptics also doubt the environmental impacts of the VHTR . |
| 541 | Since SCWR and other Generation IV designs are reactors which can produce electricity as well as high temperature , they can also provide process heat for industrial purposes . |
| 542 | Moreover , waste reprocessing is expensive and fuel consuming as it requires continuous burning of the wastes |
| 543 | In addition , when the disaster happened , another serious mistake in building the nuclear power plant that reflected the weak cognition of the importance of psychology in design is that the wall around the reactor was not tough . |
| 544 | Their governments could not pay for their high oil debts so these two countries decided to depend on nuclear technology . |
| 545 | It is obvious that the cost of one nuclear reactor is very high , but if we apply it to this next generation reactor , it could be meaningless . |
| 546 | This is another overwhelming expense of nuclear power . |
| 547 | Although there are other promising renewable energy sources available , they are not fully reliable . |
| 548 | Compared to other means of generating energy , users will have to pay more for the same amount of electricity generated via nuclear means . |
| 549 | In conclusion , the different factors of costs , mainly construction costs , operating costs and decommissioning costs contribute to almost the whole cost of building a nuclear plant . |
| 550 | Not to mention there are many underlying costs such as the nuclear plant maintenance cost , the land required to build a reactor and the waste management system . |
| 551 | Many people may think that the generation IV reactor is much more complicated and expensive to build . |
| 552 | Besides , these radioactive substances will pollute the earth and poison the living organisms on the earth . |
| 553 | In the case of Shoreham , the nuclear plant faced strong opposition from both the people and the government . |
| 554 | It is a common fact that nuclear reactors have high set up and maintenance cost . |
| 555 | As noted in " Nuclear power 's new dawn " , Butler said that the public is concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors . |
| 556 | Lastly , the third factor is the effect of nuclear reactors on the environment . |
| 557 | The main safety concern has always been the possibility of an uncontrolled release of radioactive material , leading to contamination and consequent radiation exposure off-site ( Lacy , 2009 ) . |
| 558 | Actually , these voids in the liquid are chaotic and can be very dangerous because that the liquid and the steam have totally different properties . |
| 559 | They think that accidents are possible in nuclear plants . |
| 560 | On the other hand , reprocessing is extremely expensive , costing more than uranium fuel itself ( ) . |
| 561 | There is no doubt that up-front cost of nuclear power plant building is relatively expensive compared to those associated with fossil fuels . |
| 562 | In addition , the cost of recycling is very expensive and a lot of fuel still ends up as waste . |
| 563 | van Rooijen , 2009 ) In addition , under the high performance , both reactors need to work under high temperature . |
| 564 | The temperature needed to split hydrogen from water in a reactor is from 700 to 900 ° C and even if the SCWR could produce hydrogen , separating it with liquid water would become a big problem . |
| 565 | The fatal flaws of nuclear power . |
| 566 | These environmentalists would thus believe that nuclear power 's benefits to the environment are insignificant ( Nuclear power undermining , 2008 ) .. On the contrary , these beliefs are often biased against nuclear power . |
| 567 | Security is the second issue when operating nuclear power plants . |
| 568 | This caused an unstable thermo-hydraulic status . |
| 569 | On the other hand , very-high-temperature reactor is working under a very high temperature environment ( Very high temperature reactor , 2009 ) . |
| 570 | However , if we take into account the set up cost of the nuclear plants , which are more high-tech than coal plants , they are definitely much more expensive . |
| 571 | Moreover , the new generation reactors require skilled engineers to operate . |
| 572 | Lastly , disputers argue that nuclear waste storage is a problem as nuclear waste remains reactive even after a long time . |
| 573 | A report released by the Government Accountability Office even mentioned that it is critical of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission ( NRC ) , finding that the latter has not increased standards enough to ensure plants are genuinely secure , but only as much as industry officials believe is necessary . |
| 574 | It was indeed a disastrous accident which subsequently made nuclear plants appear to be scientific devils . |
| 575 | Both countries are accused of possessing nuclear weapons which would present a great threat to the world . |
| 576 | Whenever people hear of the word " nuclear " , they usually associate this word with nuclear warfare , radiation emitted by nuclear and all the possible detrimental impacts that nuclear power can cause ( Donald , 2004 ) . |
| 577 | In addition , these reactors require highly skilled professionals ( Reason , 1988 ) . |
| 578 | It is a known fact that nuclear power plants require high-start up costs . |
| 579 | This cost increases over the years , as more nuclear wastes are produced . |
| 580 | Secondly , from an environmental standpoint , the opposing views think that the life-cycle emissions of the nuclear energy are great pollutants . |
| 581 | Furthermore , lots of secrets about nuclear power plants are often kept away from the public due to economic interest of government bodies and private companies , leading to people choosing other alternative energy as they are seemingly much safer . |
| 582 | The main environmental concern is the disposal of radioactive wastes . |
| 583 | Firstly , compared to the high cost , the benefit from developing Generation IV reactors is insufficient . |
| 584 | I agree that the old generation reactors generate a lot of heavy metal waste , which is still a problem . |
| 585 | However when we talk about nuclear energy , people will usually associate it with radiation , wastes and missiles . |
| 586 | As for nitrogen oxide control devices , the cost of effective devices like the Selective Catalytic Reduction is extremely high . |
| 587 | In addition , the issue of waste recycling in GCFR will pose a huge problem . |
| 588 | The public opinions on nuclear power are inconclusive . |
| 589 | Secondly , it has always been a general perception of the public that the cost incurred to build a nuclear reactor is always huge . |
| 590 | Building generation IV reactors will cost a lot but only reduce a small amount of world 's greenhouse effect . |
| 591 | As a result , the public perceives that having a nuclear reactor is like having a bomb waiting to explode . |
| 592 | ( The Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki , 2008 ) .These areas are still adversely affected by radioactive contamination , which is fatal to flora and fauna , after decades. . |
| 593 | History of accidents regarding nuclear reactors breakdown . |
| 594 | In the recent two decades , whether to adopt nuclear energy as a sustainable source of energy has become one of the heated arguments in the world . |
| 595 | In conclusion , it is undeniable that nuclear power is costly . |
| 596 | However , they do not realise that nuclear power is expensive only at the early stage . |
| 597 | The second reason are security issues such as nuclear proliferation . |

| 60 | In conclusion , there is adequate evidence showing that the use of psychology during the design process would have largely reduced the chance of the Chernobyl Accident , considering psychology could help to make people pay more attention to the importance of safety and consider the safety of the whole nuclear system in the design process . |
| 61 | There is a relationship between psychology and design process which can prevent accidents from happening . |
| 62 | First of all , the use of psychology in the design process could have prevented the accident by revealing the need of adding several failure detection systems on the train . |
| 63 | No matter what the designers are to work on , complex systems or everyday products , psychology is helpful to gain insights of problems that may be encountered or to prevent undesirable accidents . |
| 64 | Above all , applying psychology during the design process could make people pay more attention to the importance of safety . |
| 65 | With the aid of psychology which focuses on safety measures , accidents are more likely to be avoided . |
| 66 | For the facts mentioned above , we can conclude that the accident actually could be prevented if the designers gain good enough psychology that concern much for safety problems . |
| 67 | The practice of psychology would help spot such negligence and the accident would probably be avoided . |
| 68 | Therefore , a wide range of approaches has arisen to enhance safety in the engineering process , and psychology is among one of these approaches . |
| 69 | Therefore , I felt that the use of psychology could have prevented the accident . |
| 70 | Although some people perceive that psychology would not influence the engineering process much , I do believe that the use of psychology during the design process could have effectively prevented the accident . |
| 71 | In conclusion , the use of psychology plays a huge role in facilitating any design process and ensuring that mishaps are completely avoided . |
| 72 | In this essay , two aspects where psychology could have been applied to prevent the accident will be talked about ; they are : calling attention to the importance of safety and making people consider the safety of the complex high hazard system from a macro view . |
| 73 | Studies on related industrial accidents and accident investigations , the ability to envisage possible accidents that may occur , and working with a psychology practitioner could eventually help to minimize and prevent the occurrence of accidents due to errors in human judgment , malfunctioning of products , and working environment factors . |
| 74 | In other words , system design is an applied psychology because of its human reference ; by converting design engineers to psychologists or at least having psychology knowledge may help in design process as they would take into account of human behavior . |
| 75 | In my point of view , psychology can help prevent the accident . |
| 76 | Since psychology is closely related to safety in design , whether the input of psychology could have prevented this accident is an interesting topic . |
| 77 | Use of psychology in engineering process is also necessary in predicting the possible dilemma faced by end users using the product and the possibility of wrong usage which can cause potential harm . |
| 78 | Implementing psychology in the design does have advantages . |
| 79 | In order to prevent such accidents from happening , psychology should be introduced to the design process . |
| 80 | In conclusion , adopting psychology does have benefits in the initial phase , as it reduces accidents due to design errors . |
| 81 | On the other hand , the supporters claim that through the use of psychology , the engineers might have has anticipated different scenarios that could happen and designed a safer and more stable plant . |
| 82 | As a result , it is vital to implement psychology in the design stage so to prevent the occurrence of any catastrophic accident . |
| 83 | If the psychology factor is not considered in design processes , accidents may happen easily . |
| 84 | Some people believe that the use of psychology during the design process might have corrected all the flaws of the system , thus preventing the tragedy while others argue that this incident occurred due to severe breaches of safety regulations by the operators . |
| 85 | While opponents might argue on the impertinence of the use of psychology and its effectiveness in reducing problems , it is undeniable that the use of psychology makes all team members take meticulous care in implementing decisions and hence make the design process safer . |
| 86 | Although some contend psychology used in designing can prevent accidents , there are some reasons and evidence to oppose the theory of psychology in design processes can prevent accidents . |
| 87 | However , the use o f psychology in the design process would be helpful to prevent the Chernobyl disaster . |
| 88 | They stated that when engineers or designers design with human psychology in through , they could produce a design that can prevent accidents from taking place . |
| 89 | In addition , this problem of extra cost can be minimized if managers carefully analyse the nature of the industry and decide how far psychology should be involved in design processes . |
| 90 | For instance , if we introduce psychology to the case above , then the designer and the contractor would have communicated well ; so that the accidents would not happen . |
| 91 | This evaluation is also part of psychology application , where the mistakes from the engineers are reduced as much as possible to safeguard the complex high hazard system . |
| 92 | First of all , if psychology approaches were introduced in the design process , product safety could be better guaranteed . |
| 93 | If we put much consideration of the psychological approach into the design process , many accidents can be avoided . |
| 94 | Thus , it is important to include psychology in the design process as human factors can affect the safety and quality of a system . |
| 95 | In fact , psychology had been used in the past for improving human behaviours by selecting , training and motivating the operators in industries . |
| 96 | The use of psychology provides an approach , or at least fraction of the box , so that we can see what goes on in designers ' heads , and thus prevent or at least minimize the design errors ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 97 | In conclusion , a psychology approach could prevent engineering accidents , regardless of different possible mistakes which may occur in the process . |
| 98 | Therefore the use of psychology during the design process could have possibly prevented the Chernobyl incident . |
| 99 | Therefore , there is a possibility that the use of psychology would have prevented the accident . |
| 100 | Applying a psychology approach when analyzing or planning a design is crucial and beneficial to ensure safety as well as quality . |
| 101 | Using Psychology during Design Process Helps Prevent Major Accidents |
| 102 | In this way , psychology could help designers to minimize their mistakes in the design process ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 103 | In conclusion , I do not deny the fact that the use of psychology to improve engineering ethics and refine the thought process involved in the design stage helps in reducing the occurrence of accidents . |
| 104 | Hence the most efficient way to reinforce safety is by applying psychology to design processes . |
| 105 | As Wilpert ( 2007 ) suggested , psychology , in fact , could help the design process to consider on how human mistakes could be prevented or at least reduced . |
| 106 | The use of psychology would assist engineers and designers to think creatively and better and therefore they will come up with safe and good inventions . |
| 107 | As psychology studies human mental functions and human behavior , we are able to pin point human errors and thus minimize design mistakes and prevent accidents from happening . |
| 108 | With with regard to this incident , many might argue that the use of psychology would have prevented the accident . |
| 109 | Apply engineering psychology to prevent accidents |
| 110 | In conclusion , if psychology is not given consideration during the design process , the possibility for an accident to occur will be high . |
| 111 | Applying psychology in engineering can help to make people more mature , responsible , and careful while dealing with complex high hazard systems like nuclear reactors , which will definitely reduce the chances of an accident . |
| 112 | By having certain degree of psychology knowledge , we are able to understand human weaknesses so that design processes can incorporate psychological knowledge to improve the system . |
| 113 | There are some special scenarios where no amount of logical preventive measures could prevent accidents from happening , but as far as this study is concerned , the devastating loss of human life and the collapse of Hotel New World could have all been avoided with the use of psychology during the design process , eliminating the errors committed by humans in the design and maintenance phase . |
| 114 | In the journal written by Wilpert ( 2007 ) , the use of psychology in the design process could help to prevent accidents from happening or at least minimize the damage from the accidents . |
| 115 | Psychology could have helped in automating several safety controls , improving safety and enhancing the reliability of the reactor design . |
| 116 | Nevertheless , some hold the opinion that if technology improves enough , we could eliminate accidents without applying psychology in design processes . |
| 117 | As human action plays a major role in the design process , psychology can help prevent accidents . |
| 118 | The use of psychology would enable designers to acknowledge that operators may encounter faults beyond their abilities and thus gear the design towards user friendliness . |
| 119 | Studies of human behavior , stages of an accident , investigation into industrial accident , together with some necessary and suitable psychological approaches would definitely help in minimizing the occurring of severe accidents , especially those that are due to errors in human judgement . |
| 120 | In the case of walkway collapse , it can be estimated that if psychology was applied during the structural processing , the collapse would have been avoided . |
| 121 | " Accidents are hard to predict , but psychology will definitely help to reduce the probability of occurrence of accidents . |
| 122 | This essay proposes that the use of psychology in the design process is helpful to prevent the Chernobyl accident . |
| 123 | Moreover , with psychology knowledge , a design engineer would be capable of predicting the situation under worse condition . |
| 124 | It can be seen that if psychology had been incorporated into the design of the instruments , the engineers of the instruments could have anticipated such a problem and included a device to alert the operators in a case when the valve and its related parts fail . |
| 125 | n.d ) The use of cognitive psychology would enhance style of thinking and creativity in the design process , encouraging engineers to come up with an effective and safe design . |
| 126 | However , if psychology was applied , there would have been better understanding between workers and the design engineers . |
| 127 | Therefore , the use of cognitive psychology would have helped to prevent the accident . |
| 128 | The people supporting this point of view argue that the design errors play important roles that lead to the accident and these errors can be removed with psychology to avoid the accident . |
| 129 | Finally , the approach of psychological knowledge can prevent or at least reduce the probability of accidents occurring . |
| 130 | If psychology could been used in their decision , if they could have thought more about their work which related to the safety of other people and the outcome of the entire program , if they really have had the sense of responsibility which results from the essence of their job , they would not rush their work and make irresponsible decision . |
| 131 | From this statement , we know that psychology aims to improve systems by helping people in a psychological way . |
| 132 | The view that support the use of psychology could have prevented the accident shows that the design errors directly cause the accident and removing these errors would remove the accident . |
| 133 | Could this accident have been prevented or to be specific could the use of psychology during the design process prevent this accident from happening ? |
| 134 | Hence , designers could have brought in psychologists to evaluate the design to inhibit such unauthorized practices and to ensure the safety standards are kept high . |
| 135 | In conclusion , the use of psychology could have prevented the accident if the parties involved were careful about the design and made sure that it was not under-designed as in the case of Nicoll Highway . |
| 136 | As it is suggested by psychology , providing favorable working conditions and environment for engineers can be an important element in preventing accidents from happening . |
| 137 | Also , instead of having the traditional feedback controls of safety , the use of psychology predicts the consequences of having mistakes in design and take corrective actions immediately , thus greatly reducing the probability of accidents occurring due to design errors . |
| 138 | Could this accident have probably been prevented with the usage of psychology as proposed by Bernhard Wilpert in " Psychology and design processes " ? |
| 139 | Evidence shows the use of psychology during the design process would have largely reduced the chance of the Chernobyl Accident by raising the awareness of safety among the crew . |
| 140 | When people try to analyze the causes of the train accident , many believed that the use of psychology during the process of design could have prevented it . |
| 141 | The use of psychology as described by Wilpert ( 2008 ) in preventing the errors in design by the designers who are also only human involves the introduction of applied psychology as a method of curbing the potentially negative effects that may arise from the dynamics of individual and group psychology in design teams . |
| 142 | It should be evident that psychology plays a huge role in the design process in order to ensure the safety of the system . |
| 143 | With the help of psychology , we can thoroughly improve the management system effects by solving official 's psychological problems . |
| 144 | But , psychology could point out the potential danger and consequence of the problem so that engineers would search for better options . |
| 145 | Including psychological factors during the design process is found to be one of the ways to improve safety which might have prevented the Chernobyl incident . |
| 146 | Once again , if psychology , in the form of cognitive ergonomics , had been implemented in the design process of the instruments to improve the human-machine interface , errors and misjudgments could have been reduced ( Budnick & Michael , 2001 ) , and events like this would not have happened . |
| 147 | In this case , if a psychologist was employed , he would have seen the engineers ' dilemma and used a psychological approach to help them overcome their bias . |
| 148 | Therefore , psychological factors play an important role in reducing the possibility of accidents as well as improving a system 's safety . |
| 149 | Now , one of the ways the use of psychology could have possibly prevented the accident at TMI would be during the design process ( Bernhard 2007 ) . |
| 150 | Psychology can be applied to various stages of design processes to prevent accidents . |
| 151 | As engineering psychology is applied more and more deeply in design processes , it will make the production , especially the highly complex socio-technical systems with hazardous characteristics , safer than before . |
| 152 | ( Munipov , ND ) Psychology is the study of the mind and if it is included in the design process , the design would be seen from the user 's perspective and thus the end product would have an effective design . |
| 153 | For these reasons , we conclude that the accident in the Tenerife runway could have been avoided , had the use of psychology been applied in the designing process . |
| 154 | Nevertheless , the psychologist could have contributed to the design process by reducing the rate of accidents . |
| 155 | While opponents reasoned that there is no distinctive link between psychology and engineering design process , the use of psychology could theoretically have prevented the accident through its intervention in the controls and the safety mechanisms design . |
| 156 | With the use of psychology , members in the team are at greater ease in challenging a wrong decision and thus stalling an accident . |
| 157 | Hence , with the help of psychology design , the rates of accidents may reduce drastically . |
| 158 | This tragic event could have been avoided , or at least , the resultant damage kept minimal if psychology was implemented in the operating process and procedures of the plant . |
| 159 | While it is true that the restrictions set by technology limitations are a direct cause for the engineering failure , the application of psychology could help to overcome the negative effects of technology difficulties . |
| 160 | Furthermore , the effectiveness of the use of psychology in ensuring safety in engineering processes is being questioned . |
| 161 | For everyday products design , it is quite understandable that if the technical configurations are similar for all , psychology could help designers make a difference by considering making improvements that are more user-friendly in design . |
| 162 | With the increasing collaboration between psychology and design , engineers have been using for the design process to make more reliable and stable products . |
| 163 | Although technological deficiency was behind the failure of the Challenger , psychology could be implemented to stop the disaster from happening . |
| 164 | In this sense , psychology can help engineers make better quality product and earn more profit , which indirectly mitigates the possibility of accidents . |
| 165 | Some psychologists have wondered whether the use of psychology in the design process would have prevented the accident . |
| 166 | These two factors-- one relating to humans and one relating to machines--can be eliminated by carefully using psychology in the design process . |
| 167 | Applying psychology provides us with a new option to effectively improve nuclear industry 's safety and reliability . |
| 168 | Many engineers and experts are debating whether psychology in design processes could prevent accidents from occurring . |
| 169 | Could the use of psychology have prevented the accident ? |
| 170 | Together with the present rules and laws of safety design , the presence of psychologists decreases the chance of having future failure and accidents . |
| 171 | The use of psychology could have minimized the damage or even prevented the accident by influencing the engineers to use a reactor that is safer and has a negative void coefficient . |
| 172 | In the case of the Hyatt Regency accident , the application of psychology would possibly have prevented the accident . |
| 173 | While research has shown that most of the causes are due to human error , people are able to solve this problem by using psychology . |
| 174 | Hence , even with the established safety regulations in engineering , the practice of psychology is essential in re-examining and evaluating the design products for hidden dangers to prevent disasters . |
| 175 | Furthermore , psychologists can persuade engineers to have good attitude towards their work and help engineers to release their pressure . |
| 176 | For industries where professional knowledge is required , engineers educated in psychology should be involved in design processes such that safety factors can be given enough attention while innovation process will not be affected . |
| 177 | All in all , the use of psychology could play a role to prevent the happening of the Chernobyl accident . |
| 178 | Firstly , good preparation of psychology in design processes could have saved the Space Shuttle Challenger . |
| 179 | To sum up , any design process can minimize a probability of danger , even can be avoided by applying psychology . |
| 180 | ( North , 2006 ) This , therefore , boils down to the question as to whether the use of psychology , both in technical and human terms , during the design process of the reactor would have prevented this accident . |
| 181 | Human errors are unavoidable , but psychology is meant to reduce the effect caused by these errors . |
| 182 | First of all , occupational mistakes is the main reason of triggering accidents as well as in mitigating consequences , so applying psychology can help people make less mistakes and prevent accidents from happening . |
| 183 | Therefore it is necessary to apply the studies of human psyche to the design of systems so as to prevent the loss of human life by such errors . |
| 184 | On the other hand , engineering psychology , which comprises a 'decision gate ' in each design phase , would effectively have enhanced safety from the human point of view . |
| 185 | Therefore the use of psychology in influencing engineers towards making proper decisions is a crucial one . |
| 186 | Furthermore , psychologists can help analyze and improve the operating system and company policy of large engineering projects . |
| 187 | Thus , by employing psychology , whether it is hiring a psychologist or just the employment of psychological approaches , problems that used to be unpredictable can be foreseen . |
| 188 | Psychology enhances understanding of design processes , helps foresee problems and as a result reduces problems too . |
| 189 | Rather , the presence of a psychologist in a team can help the members work at their optimum and avoid the chance of having human error in the design process . |
| 190 | Although there is not one definite cause for such accidents , the correct use of psychology in certain areas , including the design of the airport , the communication procedure and the training of manpower , may help to prevent similar disasters in the future . |
| 191 | After reviewing this accident , some experts have felt that incorporating a psychologist into the developmental process could have aided in preventing it . |
| 192 | In the case of the Chernobyl accident , if psychology was inculcated , the mistakes by the engineers could have been prevented . |
| 193 | In my opinion , the input of psychology at each stage would have been able to change the erroneous part of the design process and effectively enhanced the safety of the system . |
| 194 | Psychology Help Prevent Engineering Accidents |
| 195 | Therefore , if psychology had been used in the design process , the accident would not have happened . |
| 196 | Psychology which deals with human behaviours is therefore the best preventive way to avoid engineering accidents . |
| 197 | Thus , psychology may be used in areas like promoting safety issues among the workers , reducing the behavior of bad practices in a workplace and enhancing the communication between different departments . |
| 198 | The engineers should be aware of the limitations of the reactor and the use of psychology could have led them to use a better reactor or install other measures to counter the weaknesses of the reactor . |
| 199 | Actually , the way to prevent engineering accidents should be innovated by taking psychology into consideration instead of expecting engineers to be perfect . |
| 200 | The opposition might argue on the cost and the need to implement psychology in an engineering design process but the imminent need to prevent accidents overpowers all opposition . |
| 201 | As psychology develops , it has benefitted humans a lot in helping people to know more about themselves . |
| 202 | Psychology has the function to guide people to understand technological imperfections and give effective problem solving decision . |
| 203 | What is the most important evidence for his theories is that after realizing these engineering psychology problems , quite a lot of America 's nuclear institutes began to train their staff in a psychology-related way , which indeed prevented the nuclear accidents from happening again till now . |
| 204 | It is evident that psychology is able to reduce and also prevent errors by applying to both the micro and macro aspects of design processes of a system . |
| 205 | Applying Psychology to Prevent Accidents from Happening |
| 206 | If psychology was used in the design process , it would point out this flaw and advise designers to provide an adequate instruction manual including the operations in emergencies so that operators would know how to operate the reactor when facing emergencies . |
| 207 | Psychology also helps teamwork to be effective . Therefore , the use of psychology would have prevented the accident . |
| 208 | When there is a strong safety psychological awareness culture , accidents could be prevented ! |
| 209 | Therefore , the use of psychology and thus the need to hire a psychologist can be considered as an investment to prevent accidents . |
| 210 | More impactful consequences of not applying psychology in design are that serious failures can happen in complex projects and systems hence causing loss of life . |
| 211 | Supporters claim that psychology can help to reduce the probability of accidents and emphasize the value of human lives . |
| 212 | On the contrary , with the help of psychology , we can actually analyze people 's minds and behaviors in order to find and deal with any potential problems in time . |
| 213 | Engineering psychology can be understood as the study of human behaviors , as well as designing and building mechanical devices or artificial environments to improve human interaction with a system , and to satisfy anthropometric or psychological requirements so that people will use the devices ( Wickens & Kramer , 1985 ) . |
| 214 | Accordingly , there exists a controversy that whether the use of psychology during the design process would have prevented the accident . |
| 215 | Behind every mistake , there is a psychology leading to the mistake , and there is another psychology which could have been used to correct it . |
| 216 | By applying psychology , we can avoid a certain mindset and learn to be more responsible and considerate . |
| 217 | In conclusion , study of psychology regarding prevention of accidents is necessary under this people-oriented situation . |
| 218 | The utilization of elementary psychology would have prevented this accident as these types of windows of opportunities for risk could have been easily identified and rectified if the firm employed introspective reviewing of its operation . |
| 219 | Although engineers and operators tend to oppose the use of psychology in engineering design process , research results have shown the importance of psychology in preventing accidents by using their professional knowledge . |
| 220 | In this article , I would like to focus on the Eschede train disaster and discuss how the practice of psychology could have helped prevent the disaster . |
| 221 | Having said that , the use of psychology during the process is done on the basis of an ideal situation , where the human labour is of the highly skilled and with high capabilities . |
| 222 | With psychology as a guiding tool , engineers are able to think of the possible fallbacks of their decisions . |
| 223 | In addition , by exploring further the psychological aspect and applying it in our daily routines , many of such major accidents can be prevented or minimized . |
| 224 | As a result , the use of psychology in the design process may have prevented the Chernobyl accident thereby justifying its cost . |
| 225 | With psychology , the engineers will become aware of this and probably the accident will not happen . |
| 226 | Improvement of communication , teaching of social and human relation skills and methods of dealing with problems are applications of psychology . |
| 227 | Furthermore , since nobody can avoid mistakes , applying psychology in design processes could reduce the probability of human errors , thus increasing the safety coefficient of a system . |
| 228 | To conclude , the use of psychology during the design process is important . |
| 229 | Proponents argue that the added cost is justifiable should the use of psychology prevent the accident . |
| 230 | By approaching the design process from a psychological angle , the usability , functionality , safety and required user competencies of the design product are ensured to match user expectations . |
| 231 | In conclusion , psychologists may become new gatekeepers of engineering design process by helping correct the human error in design process and increase team efficiency . |
| 232 | Engineering psychology provides methods to enhance the safety of a system from the human point of view ( Wilpert , 2006 ) . |
| 233 | If we had applied psychology in the nuclear power plant , the workers would have been trained well and they would have given the right responses during the accident while running the plant . |
| 234 | Therefore , we can see that the use of psychology might reduce the chance of an accident caused by engineering failure but would not prevent it . |
| 235 | As such , the discussion shall pertain to the application of psychology on three of the organization levels of the architecture firm with the aim of preventing the accident . |
| 236 | Apart from the engineering errors , psychology should also be taken into account with respect to safety issue . |
| 237 | A series of accidents caused by errors in the field of engineering have aroused debates in the practice of psychology in engineering design processes to prevent potential dangers . |
| 238 | Some insist that insights can be gained when analyzing design process using psychological approaches . |
| 239 | The Chernobyl accident can be a good example to see how the use of psychology helps to prevent the accident . |
| 240 | Though the use of psychology could have aided the design process in these three areas , whether the use of psychology would have prevented the accident is really hard to say . |
| 241 | The use of psychology might have prevented the Chernobyl accident and the effects of the accident would have been minimized . |
| 242 | Psychologists could also indicate the flaws in the design process and advise designers to lower the positive void coefficient and enhance the protection and control system in this case . |
| 243 | Psychology is useful in foreseeing latent errors and thus it is easier to come out with a solution that will reduce the probability of an accident . |
| 244 | The accident was caused by the lack of the use of psychology during the design process , and could have been prevented , had more psychological considerations been taken into the aircraft designs . |
| 245 | The use of psychology could also remove all the design flaws and add in a desirable mechanism to the system , thus creating a more efficient reactor for both the engineers and operators . |
| 246 | Introducing psychology in the design process can foresee the possible human errors , such as the operators ' incompetent mental state of mind during the operation of the plant . |
| 247 | Bernhard suggests the idea of adopting psychology during the design phase of a project , because engineers are humans and humans are prone to mistakes . |
| 248 | Both sides of evidences taken into consideration , psychology should be considered as an important factor that is influencing design due to its crucial role in facilitating interactions of social and technological factors , analyzing human expectations as well as planning work process of design . |
| 249 | Additionally , there is a need for the application of psychology to create a standardized design process where measures for the purpose of ensuring safety can be explicitly listed and made compulsory . |
| 250 | While psychology is described as a necessity in improving the safety measures during a design process , opponents are still sceptical about the validity and reliability of psychology research . |
| 251 | Applying psychology can tackle this problem . |
| 252 | Thus , psychology could have indeed changed the reactor plant to a vastly safer environment . |
| 253 | In this respect , the use of psychology during design process requires them to make a schedule based on practicability after consultations with engineers , which will help to guarantee each individual process of the system to operate well . |
| 254 | Therefore , psychology in engineering is definitely required to promote safety throughout the design process , especially for hazardous systems such as nuclear plants . |
| 255 | The adoption of psychology in design might have taken a few of the factors into consideration , but it was unlikely to have anticipated all and hence there would still be potential hazards . |
| 256 | However , the study of psychology focusing on Human Computer Interaction ( HCI ) helps one to use the rapidly advancing telecommunication and research facilities to their advantage . |
| 257 | Psychology , by studying human behaviours and activities , is able to detect these human errors and help prevent and eliminate accidents ( Stanton , 1996 ) . |
| 258 | To sum up , with the use of psychology in the design process , the problems such as lack of failure detection systems that were installed in the train , company 's policy that did not allow the train manager to stop the train , and the poor design of the train wheels would not have occurred . |
| 259 | The involvement of psychology during engineering processing is a helpful and practicable measure . |
| 260 | Indeed , all the causes can be reduced , even avoided , as long as consider the use of the psychology during the design process . |
| 261 | Despite all these opposing arguments , I firmly believe that the practice of psychology is essential in design processes to help prevent human errors and disasters . |
| 262 | At least in the Columbia issue , I am very sure the use of psychology would have prevented the accident . |
| 263 | These mistakes were either due to machine design flaws or humans ' instantaneous errors , and all of them could have been prevented by application of psychology . |
| 264 | Thus , people start to argue the importance of psychology in engineering design process . |
| 265 | Behavior-based safety in industry : Realizing the large-scale potential of psychology to promote human welfare . |
| 266 | In addition , by employing psychological approaches and methods , planners will be able to foresee problems that may arise . |
| 267 | Therefore , if a psychologist had been in place during the designing , testing and maintenance phase , the chance of the accident happening would have been minimal . |
| 268 | Psychology can reduce misunderstanding between designers and processors , helping information to be better channeled and decreasing the probability of misunderstanding . |
| 269 | Hence engineers can produce better design with more safety if they predict human 's behaviors . |
| 270 | However , this instead posed a challenge to psychology to help modify the plant design through the method of feed-forward safety controls which could be applied in the ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 271 | As design engineers and operators are human beings , psychology could have been integrated in the design process to analyse possible errors from the design and human behaviours . |
| 272 | Therefore psychologists are necessary , to be involved in the design process to detect the human error and to be the new gate keeper of engineering design . |
| 273 | Psychology can prevent the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster |
| 274 | As defined by Blum ( 1952 ) , psychology in engineering is concerned with adapting the equipment to people , based upon their psychological capacities and limitations with the objective of improving overall system performance . |
| 275 | Secondly , the use of psychology in the design process could have prevented the accident through activating the emergency brake despite the company 's policy that did not allow the train manager to do so . |
| 276 | In any design process , the use of psychology covers the areas of safety , usability , functionality and requisite user competencies . |
| 277 | This emphasizes much on the use of psychology in the design process . |
| 278 | After conducting a root cause analysis on the accident , a psychologist could perhaps have aided the company by vetting the flawed regulations to grant train conductors the power to make an assessment to stop the train should they receive any complaints from passengers . |
| 279 | Applying psychology in engineering design processes is to let everyone work efficiently , such as arranging for psychotherapeutic sessions for operators and staff , can reduce the stress of workers who work for long hours under high pressure and help them relax . |
| 280 | Again , this shows the importance of considering psychological factors in design process . |
| 281 | Although some engineers and operators still oppose the use of psychology , for human safety , it is worthwhile to include psychology in an engineering design process . |
| 282 | This problem can be perfectly solved if engineers are educated in psychology . |
| 283 | Opponents of the use of psychology would argue that if a prototype of the wheel had been built and tested at a high speed it would have prevented the accident . |
| 284 | To sum up , the use of psychology could have been used in some phases of the design process . |
| 285 | To sum up , engineering psychology provides the means to detect human errors in each phase of the design process and even in the implementation phase . |
| 286 | In sum , psychological aids are urgently required to educate high-risk-system operational teams on a large scale , to call their attention to operational safety . |
| 287 | Proponents of psychology in design processes claims that psychological thinking is very important in the design processes . |
| 288 | It can not be denied that this is a human mistake which can be avoided by applying psychology . |
| 289 | Not surprisingly , psychology plays a crucial role in engineering design processes . |
| 290 | One such perspective is to take psychology into account . |
| 291 | Psychology in Preventing Accidents |
| 292 | As design is defined to be a human activity which aims at altering products ' properties or functionalities so as to meet social expectation ( Wilpert , 2006 ) , there have been controversies on whether psychology should be considered as an influential factor in the design process or not . |
| 293 | Opponents perceived that the Chernobyl accident was mainly due to the insufficient knowledge of the designers and operators , and advanced technical knowledge could have been able to prevent the accident instead of the use of psychology . |
| 294 | Nevertheless , with psychology applying in this project , every social factor will be considered and balanced , which means creating the best quality at the lowest cost instead of lowering the quality to make more profit . |
| 295 | Furthermore , the use of psychology lubricates cohesiveness among team members making the working environment friendlier . |
| 296 | The use of psychology from the start of design process would rectify all the faults found . |
| 297 | The use of work and organisational psychology might aid the engineers in understanding how the environment could affect the operators ' performance . |
| 298 | To summarize , If psychology was involved in the building of Hyatt Regency walkway collapse , which was a practicable measure , this unfortunate accident would have been eliminated at the very beginning . |
| 299 | The information of designing and processing would have been better channeled and translated to all the people concerned , if they iincorporated psychology into the process engineering stage . |
| 300 | Two major areas that psychology could have helped include the design of the airport and the communication equipment and procedures . |
| 301 | To say that the use of psychology during the design process would have prevented the accident would be as good as saying that if you studied hard and memorised everything , you would be able to prevent mistakes during the exam . |
| 302 | Clearly , if engineering psychology had been applied , further research would have been carried out during the preparatory phase and the error could have been detected , and this accident may have been prevented . |
| 303 | There is a debate on whether the use of psychology during the design process would have prevented the Chernobyl tragedy . |
| 304 | Psychology help engineers find the root of the problems instead of staying on the surface of the problems . |
| 305 | Engineering pscyhology is concerned with adapting the equipment and the environment to people , based upon their psychological capacities and limitations ( Blum , 1952 ) with the objective of improving overall system performance ( involving human and machine elements ) . |
| 306 | Psychology could be used to minimize these errors . |
| 307 | This essay will argue how the incorporation of psychology into design processes could have prevented the major engineering accident , in the case of the Three Mile Island nuclear plant mishap on March 28 , 1979 , which was a " snowball effect " , caused by a minor and simple fault . |
| 308 | However , one way of how psychology could have averted the accident is that the designers could have anticipated that the operators might not understand the physics behind the reactor . |
| 309 | A psychologist will seek to understand the mindsets of various members and thus foresee human error on their parts . |
| 310 | To sum up , even though the Challenger was designed with some serious flaws and destined to fail in such a cold environment , appropriate psychology could still be implemented to prevent the accident from happening , as long as the decision of the launch was made with confidence and the potential dangers found by the engineers were cleared up . |
| 311 | With the aid of psychology , people could gain a better understanding of aging , which is a natural phenomenon , and appreciate the elderly more . |
| 312 | However , psychology in fact complements engineering process . |
| 313 | These examples show that even machine errors can be eliminated by carefully designing and applying psychology in the design process to predict all the scenarios that may happen in the future . |
| 314 | I 'm confident that with the help of psychology , the usage of nuclear power will have a brighter future . |
| 315 | Although these major companies have not shown a high enough level of interest to invest in the use of engineering psychology , I believe that engineering psychology can help improve on the safety of operation in their industry and eventually reduce accidents . |
| 316 | The use of psychology might be one direction to go towards . |
| 317 | As far as I am concerned , the use of psychology may help prevent the tragedy , but it 's far from enough . |
| 318 | According to Bernhard Wilpert ( 2007 ) , introducing psychology is feed-forward control of safety--- in the beginning , forecast human errors that will trigger accidents and take measures to avoid these errors . |
| 319 | ( . To further explain it , psychology can be used to analyse the man-made reasons which causes errors , such as engineers ' attitudes , habits and social ability . |
| 320 | Engineering Psychology : A New Approach to Prevent Engineering Accidents |
| 321 | Psychologists could brainstorm for possible human errors that could be committed by the operators and recommend counter measures . |
| 322 | Therefore , it is vital to introduce psychology into engineering design process . |
| 323 | All in all , human errors are avoidable , and psychology in engineering is meant to reduce the risk of nuclear industry failure caused by human errors . |
| 324 | Finally , another deeper understanding of the importance of psychology in design process can be gained from the Nicoll Highway tragedy . |
| 325 | If some psychologists can communicate with the management officials and teach them to think in a more critical way , the results would not be catastrophic . |
| 326 | Also , the use of psychology could counter the underestimation of the number of errors that will form inevitably . |
| 327 | Psychologists might make mistakes but at least they can lower the probability of errors caused by human 's irresponsible acts or carelessness . |
| 328 | As described , the inputs of applied psychology can also be provided through the different organizational levels in a design team . |
| 329 | According to the International Ergonomics Association ( 2000 ) , engineering psychology is defined as " the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and other elements of a system , and the profession that applies theory , principles , data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance " . |
| 330 | On the contrary , focusing on improving the management in engineering processes is already a way of applying social psychology . |
| 331 | Just as B.Wilpert has illustrated in Psychology and design processes , engineers are human and it is possible for human to make mistakes , in other words , engineers need more understanding from society . |
| 332 | For example , for industries where design processes are complex and consequences of errors are tremendous , engagement of psychologists may be integrated , while for other industries which involve less complicated designs , psychologists may step in only after each design stage or at the end of the designs . |
| 333 | Engineering is concerned with improving equipment from the point of view of mechanical and electrical design , whereas psychology is concerned with the mind and behavior ( Stanton , 1996 ) . |
| 334 | In my opinion , with a psychologist involved in the design process , possibility of future failure or even disaster can be reduced though may be at a higher cost . |
| 335 | Thus , if a psychologist was included during the designing , testing and maintenance phase , the chance of the accident occurring would have been very minimal as the psychologist would have helped ensure that the design and testing of the wheels complied to the standards set by the organization . |
| 336 | ( Kowalski & Westen , 2005 ) Using psychology to analyze how the designers think can point out the flaws in their thinking process . |
| 337 | In this case , we are able to relate psychology into the factors and examine how pscyhology could have prevented it from happening . |
| 338 | It is currently encouraged to all design process especially in engineering design to have psychology knowledge involved . |
| 339 | A psychologist roped in to help the engineers may have been able to foresee this impending structural failure of the wheel and intervened before it was too late . |
| 340 | Psychologists can see through the problems in a different aspect and contribute to the solution by an integrated approach ( Wilpert , 2007 , P300 ) . |
| 341 | Proponents may argue that with the input of psychology , the designers of the airport should have anticipated such possible dangers and imposed stricter laws to insist on proper phraseology and check for clearance should have been put into use . |
| 342 | Thus , the problem lies in whether psychology is important to fuse into the design process . |
| 343 | Proponents agreed to the possibility of limiting creativity should psychology be used in the entire design process . |
| 344 | People who opposite views insist that psychologists can help engineers release their high working pressures . |
| 345 | Psychology can be used in areas to promote safety within workers or reinforce the importance of it . |
| 346 | However , the psychologist could have contributed to the intangible aspects of the company 's routine like spotting the mistakes engineers sometimes overlook . |
| 347 | With Assistive Technology , for example , poor cognitive ability can result in increased in loneliness [ which may lead to . The use of sensor networks and online tools can help in reducing such symptoms . |
| 348 | Some opponents argue that it is a " wise after event " or just an imagination to use psychology during engineering processing , for it is hard to combine abstract psychology with concrete engineering processing . |
| 349 | There are various fields contributing to this tendency , including science , technology , economics , government policies , medicine and psychology . |
| 350 | Human error has been recognized as the main reason for industry accidents ; psychology can prevent human error |
| 351 | Psychology has prevented accidents to some extent . It has guaranteed the workers ' mental health . |
| 352 | The objective of applying engineering psychology is to adapt the equipment and the environment to people , based upon their psychological capacities and limitations . |
| 353 | Therefore it can be expected that if psychology was involved during the construction , this tragedy caused by lack of responsibility would not have occurred at all ! |
| 354 | Title : Could the use of Psychology as described in " Psychology and Design Processes " during the design process have prevented the collapse of Nicoll Highway ? |
| 355 | However , with time , psychology is gradually applied in various fields , including law , medicine , architecture , design and so on . |
| 356 | To conclude , it is evident that the arguments involving psychology during the design process in the design and maintenance phase would have prevented the accident in this particular study . The author of Hotel New World Collapse , Hon ( 1987 ) , concluded that the design was bad , the construction was bad and the maintenance was bad . Human errors caused the failure of Hotel New World . |
| 357 | Applying psychology , engineers can analyze the reason from a more objective and more scientific angel . |
| 358 | Maybe some engineers still oppose the use of psychology , it is worthwhile to include psychology in an engineering design process . |
| 359 | Similarly , we could retrospect the accident at TMI to see that there is always room for improvement , and then conveniently tag one of Bernhard 's safety design process to claim that the meltdown could have been prevented with a little extra attention in psychology during the design process . |
| 360 | In psychology studies , scientists analysed human mental functions and behaviours and came out with solutions to help the elderly ease their process of aging . |
| 361 | But in the meantime , we have definitely proven that the use of psychology is mandatory , and could definitely have prevented the TMI accident , had relevant safety considerations been made during its design process . |
| 362 | Rather , we should focus on the psychology of engineers and scientists who invent and apply the technology to meet our worldly needs . |
| 363 | In conclusion , carefully designing a system 's safety is useless unless psychological factors are also considered . |
| 364 | I agree with his point that psychology works well in mitigating accidents . |
| 365 | However , can psychology prevent all the accidents ? |
| 366 | Engineering psychology : contribution to system safety . |
| 367 | Engineering psychology is defined as the analysis of how man behaves in the designing or constructing of equipment or man-made environments for better usage . |
| 368 | Psychologists must be present to give their safety judgments to incorporate additional counter measures against possible human errors . |
| 369 | To conclude , the train accident that happened in Germany could have been prevented with the use of psychology in the design process . |
| 370 | Designing products should include psychological factors for consumers and operators . |
| 371 | Based on Wilpert ( 2007 ) ,had psychology been used in this context , the explosion at Chernobyl could have been averted . |
| 372 | By looking at the system as a whole , that is , to include the managerial departments , we can see that if psychology was employed in the design and planning processes of how the plant is run , proper schedules for checks on machineries and also re-training can be planned . |
| 373 | To end , I can say that with the inclusion of a psychologist , the chance of the accident happening would have been very minimal . |
| 374 | If they had adopted the use of psychology , they might have reviewed safety records of that type of reactor in the industry before deciding on it . |
| 375 | If the designers had applied psychology in the design process , they would have thought carefully and predicted the unexpected problems which might happen with the rods when using them . |
| 376 | I will look into the 'Zeebrugge ' incident in detail to prove that it could have been prevented if psychology were used during the design process . |
| 377 | Even with technology at that time , this simple mistake could definitely have been corrected , if the psychology of evaluation was applied in the design engineering stage . |
| 378 | Thus measures to reduce errors resulting from deviation from ideal behavior should be formulated with the aid of psychology which analyses the behavior of man . |
| 379 | Why is the psychology approach important to the design process ? |
| 380 | In conclusion , we can not deny the fact that psychology had an impact on the way we process and manage technology . |
| 381 | Psychological factors play an important role in the root of this incident . |
| 382 | The use of psychology in this case could have helped designers to anticipate that the airport would eventually see a Boeing 747 and thus make the necessary preparations . |
| 383 | For example , cognitive psychology focuses on ways to improve memory and how to increase decision-making accuracy and social psychology is interested in the impact that social environment and interaction has on attitudes and behaviors ( Kendra , V.W . |
| 384 | Some may wonder if it is really helpful to apply psychology . |
| 385 | Psychology could lead the design engineer to be aware of others either in physical or mental behaviour ( Wagner , n.d. ) . |
| 386 | If the highest levels of NASA had made the decision more objectively and scientifically with the help of psychology in design , putting the mission off like before , the disaster could have been prevented . |
| 387 | Fortunately , a new subject named " Engineering Psychology " has already started to boom recently , which is concerned with adapting the equipment and environment to people , based upon their psychological capacities and limitations . |
| 388 | From the above arguments , we can see that the considerations of psychology are much more than a convenient 'tag-along ' during both the design and the execution process . |
| 389 | Furthermore , paying more attention to the importance of safety is not enough ; psychology should be applied to guide the engineers to consider the safety of the nuclear plant at the system level . |
| 390 | Thus , instead of solely focusing on the technical problems , applying psychology would be another thing we need to give equal priority to in order to accidents . |
| 391 | Those with opposing views have expressed their doubts about the effectiveness of practice of psychology in design processes . |
| 392 | Hence , psychological inputs should be incorporated in design processes . |
| 393 | This is where it is necessary for a psychologist to compliment the design process , by looking out in the directions where the design process is unable to cover . |
| 394 | If engineers can predict human 's behavior , they will be able to design according to human 's nature . |
| 395 | If psychology was used , the accident would probably not have happened as the Soviet government would fund part of the maintenance cost so that the necessary steps to ensure a safe working environment could be implemented . |
| 396 | Since then , more attention had been given to the area of human psychology in relation to engineering design process . |
| 397 | In the case of the accident at the Hyatt Regency , the introduction of a psychologist to the errant architecture design firm could have brought to light the negligent behavior of the engineer in question . |
| 398 | For instance , the collapse of Nicoll Highway , two stretches of highway road linked by Merdeka Bridge , located in the Central Region of Singapore ( Vernon , 2000 ) , could have been prevented if psychological approaches had been adopted in the design and construction process . |
| 399 | Many engineers have argued that the practice of psychology will be redundant since safety regulations are already established in engineering to prevent accidents . |
| 400 | Firstly , supporters to the use of psychology may argue that " a deficiency in engineering ethics is found to be one of the root causes of an engineering failure " ( Department of Materials Science and Engineering , University of New York at Stony Brook , 2008 ) . |
| 401 | The third and most important thing to use psychology in the design process in this accident is that , it could have revealed the poor design of the wheel that caused the accident . |
| 402 | First of all , psychology serves as the crucial connection between social and technological factors . |
| 403 | Will psychology prevent accidents completely ? |
| 404 | How we wish that the designers of the Chernobyl reactor RBMK had gain good psychology , so that they would not use the unstable core , the ineffective control rods and the inflammable moderator , and would kindly design an enclosed containment for exhaust gases . |
| 405 | Should proper psychology have been used in the development of the phrasing convention initially , the pilot would not have executed take off before the clearance was given and hence preventing the accident . |
| 406 | Challenger disaster and psychology in design |
| 407 | If the designer could have thought the fatal effects from the reactor explosion , he/she would have thought the possibility causes and conditions , thus the designer might not use such a high positive void coefficient and more appropriate safety features would be integrated . |
| 408 | All these steps are to be done during the designing stage , which means that the psychology approach will play an important role . |
| 409 | Therefore , psychology has been recognized as an integral part of the design process today . |
| 410 | And not just in that case , the use of psychology should always be required as a necessity in future engineering designs to enhance safety . |
| 411 | Psychology in design process involves both the study of human behavior at human-machine interface , and the analysis of organizational systems ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 412 | ( Gordon & Flin , 2001 . Hence , psychology , a human science which studies human 's mental processes and behaviors can help to decrease the mistakes caused by human factors |
| 413 | Can psychology prevent all accidents ? |
| 414 | Can Engineering Accidents be Solved by Engineering Psychology ? |
| 415 | As Bernhard Wilpert pointed in his article on psychology and design processes ( 2007 ) , " a crucial problem of design is to match the designer 's mental modal of the object or system to be designed with the mental model of the future user requirements " . |
| 416 | An area where psychology can be applied is interpersonal communication which is required in the processes of engineering . |
| 417 | Not just health and environmental facts , but psychological factors should also be considered . |
| 418 | One way to do so would have been by the implementation of psychology in the compilation of radio convention . |
| 419 | According to an article by Bernhard Wilpert from Technical University of Berlin , Germany , we can see that if psychology had been applied in the design process of the Chernobyl nuclear reactors , the disaster might not have happened . |
| 420 | The importance of psychology for design engineer |
| 421 | They assert that the use of psychology is no more than a whimsical 'what if ' speculation after witnessing a real-life situation goes wrong . |
| 422 | Hence , psychology in the design phase may be unnecessary and replaced by a set of regulations enforced by the company . |
| 423 | Could the use of psychology have prevented Chernobyl ? |
| 424 | This could not be achieved without applying psychology . |
| 425 | Hence analysis of the mind and behavior of man may potentially help rule out the possibilities of such occurrences . |
| 426 | Positive Application of Psychology During Design Process |
| 427 | Indeed , the application of psychology in the design process should not only be in the form of adding personnel well-versed in psychology . |
| 428 | Some engineers argue that practice of psychology in design processes is redundant since safety regulations and norms are already established in the engineering field . |
| 429 | ( Wilpert , 2007 ) Thus , if psychology were to be used in the design process of the Chernobyl reactor , it would have considered the possible technical failures and had used different materials for the construction , such that the radioactivity of the nuclear explosion would have been kept within the plant . |
| 430 | It there is help from a psychologist , such errors may be reduced to at least half . |
| 431 | Moreover , a psychologist should be able to relate a high competency requirement to the test and thus limit its handling to upper management . |
| 432 | But I consider psychology as the requisite factor for engineering work . |
| 433 | ( James , 2009 ) All these contributed to the painful consequence of the Chernobyl Accident , which could have been prevented if psychology had been applied to make the crew more responsible and pay more attention to nuclear safety . |
| 434 | Thus , having certain knowledge about it will definitely aid in the understanding of human behavior and the reasons why human makes mistakes . |
| 435 | One area of focus is on psychology . |
| 436 | The Importance of Psychology in Design Process |
| 437 | So long as there is a human factor in the engineering process , the use of psychology is inevitable . |
| 438 | In the psychology and design processes article ( B.Wlpert , 2007 ) the author has stated that engineers can make mistakes in their design as engineers are also humans . |
| 439 | However , some engineers hold the opinion that incorporating social psychology into the engineering processes seems crazy and funny . |
| 440 | It does not only reflect on how human thinking solve human errors but it also uses sophisticated theory and principles . |
| 441 | The reason why , ten years later , a similar technical defect also caused the Chernobyl Accident is because people did not pay enough attention to nuclear safety and therefore did not learn a lesson from the prior accidents , which were not purely due to a technical problem and which could have been solved by applying psychology . |
| 442 | This is a valid concern ; however it can not negate the significance of practice of psychology in design processes . |
| 443 | Theoretically , analysis of the mind and behavior of man can effectively reduce accidents due to human error , by adopting measures that takes into consideration the limitation and capacities of man . |
| 444 | Profession Wilpert ( 2007 ) from Technical University of Berlin proposes that using psychology in the design process could prevent disasters like Chernobyl accident , while some people argue that psychology will not be useful in preventing accidents . |
| 445 | These arguments pointed out by the opponents are in actual fact very related to psychology and are factors part of Organizational Ergonomics ( International Ergonomics Association , 2009 ) . |
| 446 | However , although engineering psychology may not have been able to detect all the errors , the methodology used throughout the process would definitely have pointed out some of the erroneous parts . |
| 447 | Predicting human actions during thee operation of object or system , designers and engineers can design corresponding to human actions . |
| 448 | Generally speaking , engineering psychology is concerned with adapting equipment and environment to people ( Blum , 1952 ) . |
| 449 | Moreover , the mental preparedness of the patient is most likely moulded on the pre-test counselling before genetic testing is carried . |
| 450 | Therefore , nowadays there is encouragement to have human scientists ( psychologists ) in the design team ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 451 | Although a precise definition of human error is hard to develop , some errors are predictable using existing psychological studies ( Noyes , 1997 ) . |
| 452 | However , if a psychologist was present during the designing phase of the wheel , he could have pointed out that the datasheets were prepared by other engineers also , and engineers can make mistakes too . |
| 453 | In other word , if we can clear all the human factors of the accident , would the accident be prevented ? |
| 454 | As such , they suggest the intermittent intervention of psychology or simply the introduction of psychology only after the main design outline is formed ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 455 | However , one might propose that psychology development has brought about ageism , which involves prejudicial attitudes to the |
| 456 | People start to consider whether psychology can be applied to the field of engineering , so does Wilpert Bernhard , an expert from Institute of Psychology and Ergonomics , Technical University of Berlin . |
| 457 | In the article Psychology and design processes , the author mentioned that all human beings make mistakes , including engineers . |
| 458 | The final argument proposed by the opponents is that psychologists are also humans who can make mistakes just like engineers . |
| 459 | Study of behavior of man is necessary in the prediction and adjustment of the system to suit users . |

| 0 | These will benefit patients by causing less pain less pain , less risk of infection , less blood loss , fewer transfusions , less scarring , faster recovery and a quicker return to normal daily activities . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Not only can it save time but it can also be operated in a safer manner . |
| 2 | Therefore , we can minimize the damage caused by accidents or even avoid them and increase the efficiency of . |
| 3 | Thus , this can help reduce casualties and assist rescue work to proceed smoothly . |
| 4 | Furthermore , in a more educated society , more people are equipped with the knowledge to better take care of themselves and hence help lessen the amount of healthcare spending . |
| 5 | This method of monitoring minimizes any potential error and enhances efficiency . |
| 6 | Moreover , improvements in science can not only help the people be but also decrease the size of hospitalisation and other medical bills . |
| 7 | As technology improves , it is true that the probability of accidents can be significantly reduced . |
| 8 | With the improvement , not only the cost of hospitalisation is eliminated , many previously complicated surgeries have also become simplified as a result . |
| 9 | Improvements and enhancements can then be implemented pertaining to these problems and , as a result , lower the chances of accidents happening . |
| 10 | Therefore , through the help of research and development , the aged live better lives , and have fewer health problems . |
|---|---|
| 11 | More sophisticated health care systems will in turn help to reduce medical spending on the aged and might even help the elderly to sustain good health . |
| 12 | In conclusion , since surveillance technology has bring a lot of advantages to us and has potential to become less harm to the public in the future we should support the technology as it is one of the way to improve our living standard by lowering criminal rate and enhance medical standard . |
| 13 | With such developments , the elderly can save cost and receive appropriate healthcare treatments more conveniently . |
| 14 | The safety measures can be improved and the hazardous by-products can be reduced with the advancement of technology . |
| 15 | Moreover , it better ensures safety during operation so that accident risk is lowered . |
| 16 | In this way , less people will suffer . |
| 17 | Besides , if more are able to slow down or even prevent themselves from getting the disease , the aged can lessen their medical costs which will lead to a reduced cost of living . |
| 18 | As a result , better healthcare services and facilities are created and they have effectively reduced healthcare cost and elderly dependency . |
| 19 | In doing so , waiting time could be greatly minimized and many more innocent lives will be saved . |
| 20 | It is known that by having a healthy lifestyle , one will have fewer health problems and thus will need to spend less on healthcare . |
| 21 | This would result in less toll on the elderly as the wound is smaller and thus able to heal faster . |
| 22 | Next , by reducing the recovery period for illnesses , people who are ill , especially the elderly population who are more prone to sickness , will require less treatment sessions or usage of hospital facilities and thus incur less medical expenses too . |
| 23 | It was because may have seen future benefits from these upgrades as the improvements would not only benefit aged or disabled people , but they would also reduce people 's travel time thus increasing their productivity . |
| 24 | The reason is that a simple design is much easier to design and time required to produce such a design would be much less . |
| 25 | Eventually the economy will benefit when people become healthier and spend lesser on their healthcare . |
| 26 | Operating at lower pressures reduces accident risk and in the event of an accident . |
| 27 | With the new resolved imaging technology , more humans would be able to make use of such technology since its cost would be reduced . |
| 28 | This reduces time taken to track down these details and hence makes procedures simpler . |
| 29 | These policies make medical treatment more affordable and less taxing to the elderly . |
| 30 | This would decrease the percentage of them being sick and also help them to build healthier and happier lifestyles . |
| 31 | More cost efficient methods for the same treatment would be developed which lower treatment costs to a point where only minimal subsides is required . |
| 32 | In this way , it minimizes the chances of them being unable to afford their medical bills , and at the same time reduces the heavy burden on government subsidies . |
| 33 | Therefore with this design , the risk could be lowered . |
| 34 | This can greatly reduce human errors made during work which may able to reduce accidents from happening . |
| 35 | Thus , with careful , well trained operators and better cooling systems , the probability of accidents happening will be reduced . |
| 36 | It has saved the people whose surrounding space is small and compact , has brought a lot of convenience to society . |
| 37 | Therefore , we can conclude that research and development can help to decrease healthcare spending and improve the quality of service efficiently . |
| 38 | Besides that , investing in the areas of healthcare will suggest that in the near future to come , the aged population will be healthier and thus less prone to illnesses that are associated with aging . |
| 39 | In addition , we have made the device more portable by minimizing the size and weight . |
| 40 | This makes lower health subsidies from the government possible as more people know how to stay healthy . |
| 41 | First , the reaction pressure of GFR is much lower than that of SWCR , which obviously will reduce the risk of accident . |
| 42 | The government can lower healthcare costs by providing the elderly with cheaper but adequate alternatives . |
| 43 | With a better transportation infrastructure , travelling time will be reduced and accessibility will be increase . |
| 44 | In this way , less human labor is involved in the operation of GFR and thus accident risks are minimized . |
| 45 | Current research and development indeed helps a lot in slowing down the process . |
| 46 | Innovation of new machines which consume less energy is a good way to solve the problem . |
| 47 | This will decrease the suffering of the elderly , making them less susceptible to diseases , thus helping to abate the ageing process . |
| 48 | These technologies were developed for their intended purpose , which is to reduce casualties from road accidents . |
| 49 | As the market for such vehicle grows , mass production is likely to take place , which will in turn lower its cost price . |
| 50 | However , if the country is able to find a way to improve cleanliness , this will no doubt lead to a healthier population , which in turn means lower medical costs . |
| 51 | Developing the technology can reduce the cost of machines and simplify the whole system . |
| 52 | Citizens enjoying this better quality of life are less prone to diseases promoting a healthier life . |
| 53 | These breakthroughs thus they can enjoy the of their lives healthier , happier and with less suffering . |
| 54 | Furthermore , it could lower the crime rate , thus benefiting all people . |
| 55 | Nonetheless , government intervention can minimize the possibility of having these problems . |
| 56 | This reduces the chance of patients getting themselves into danger . |
| 57 | It can be done by designing a less complex device , giving more useful information and practice for operators in charge , designing better backup systems and so on . |
| 58 | It does not need to be changed or improved so much . |
| 59 | This will also lead to a society with more educated and self-sufficient families , where minimal subsidies are needed to help a minority of the population , thereby limiting spending on the problem of the aged or an aging population . |
| 60 | In the event of an accident , the damage to the whole plant will be considerably lesser . |
| 61 | The impact of human errors could be minimized if appropriate safety mechanisms were installed on the system . |
| 62 | New methods of healthcare treatment often bring down the cost of it too . |
| 63 | This can prevent any deliberate accident and minimize damage caused by accidents . |
| 64 | It not only reduces the material cost , makes a more accurate diagnosis , but also is less painful for the patient and gives scientists a great chance to study deeper about the human body . |
| 65 | This will decrease the company 's reaction time to each incident and thus help solve any problems that will arise . |
| 66 | The cost of health care could be lowered with advancement in science and medication which are more effective . |
| 67 | Therefore , to a large extent , current research and development have helped to slow down the aging process . |
| 68 | Thus , the manufacturing process of coolant is simpler for SCWR , and thus it is also cheaper . |
| 69 | Continuous advances in technology on one had will bring down the possibility of error occurring , and the other hand allow the machine to shut down safely if any emergency happens . |
| 70 | Hence , with such surveillance technology , the risk of patients getting injured while getting lost outside can be reduced to a minimum . |
| 71 | One , the population will be generally healthier , with a smaller tendency to fall sick , which otherwise disrupts productivity of the economy and increases the need for medical services and facilities . |
| 72 | For example , the MediShield is used to better prepare them for the future medical costs ( , 2009 ) .The implementation of these policies will hence reduce the burden on the aged and thus reduce public spending required for them . |
| 73 | New form of or improved transportation could help to reduce costs and save time . |
| 74 | While it is true that such an event may occur , with the advancement of technology and tighter regulations , this problem can be rectified . |
| 75 | However , technology has helped us to slow down these aging processes in many creative ways . |
| 76 | The probability of human errors that lead to accidents are also largely reduced through human independent safety features . |
| 77 | The SWCR is preferred to other GenIV concepts because of its simple design , which indicates that it will be cheaper and easier to develop and operate . |
| 78 | Thus the journey will be smooth and accidents could be prevented . |
| 79 | The advantage of this treatment system is that it only produces low-cost recycled materials , it also produces new composite materials with better characteristics . |
| 80 | It is important to promote preventative measures as it will mean less expenditure on taking care of people who are sick . |
| 81 | These preventive acts can prevent the occurrence of a disaster . |
| 82 | Thus , it largely reduces the possibility of explosions or other accidents . |
| 83 | With this safety feature , accidents due to human errors could be prevented and would no longer be an issue . |
| 84 | If potential criminals are aware of this fact,there is a high possibility that crime can be greatly deterred . |
| 85 | Negative effects of aging can be diminished to a large extent with the help of science and technology . |
| 86 | Needless to say , the fatalities of that collision would have been minimized . |
| 87 | This , in turn , can help prevent injury caused by falls . |
| 88 | In addition , the low level of limitation would mean that quality healthcare is being catered for the elderly as sufficient money are being invested in them . This may lead to a healthier ageing population which may then contain the spread of elderly illnesses ( Dunnell : 1995 ) . |
| 89 | Furthermore , with stability , accidents are unlikely to occur , and therefore it resolves the concerns people have for safety . |
| 90 | Furthermore , in the long run , the high cost is spread over the products , thus reducing the daily cost . |
| 91 | Hence , these measures enable the elderly to have a better understanding of their bodies and therefore reduce the healthcare cost . |
| 92 | As technology advances over the years , we can foresee that the chances of accidents occurring will be reduced . |
| 93 | This will undoubtedly reduce human error . |
| 94 | This will lower the likelihood of crime . |
| 95 | This will minimise the risk of violence and prisoners escaping . |
| 96 | By replacing drivers with automated computerizations , manpower could be saved and public transports would be less costly . |
| 97 | Thus , less research will be required for SFR , which also means that the research cost will be reduced . |
| 98 | This way , proper healthcare at a reduced medical cost is made available for them . |
| 99 | After a complete analysis and a better understanding of mistakes , the possibilities of making mistakes can be reduced , thus can prevent accidents from happening . |
| 100 | Such chips are useful , cheap to implement and reduce the risk of losing items which lead to capital loss . |
| 101 | Actually SWCR is simple to design and built that largely lower its cost . |
| 102 | An improved public transport system increases accessiblity and reduces travelling time for most people . |
| 103 | Moreover , the appearance of many technology appliances like computers , machines and transportation means also increase productivity and lessen workload , which create more time to relax and enjoy life . |
| 104 | By contrast , SWCR has successfully brought down these side effects to quite an acceptable level . |
| 105 | More importantly , less blood loss , less infection and smaller incisions make the procedure safer and less painful . |
| 106 | For instance , a well organized public transportation system will help minimize the use of private vehicles , which is costly , and reduce traffic congestion and accidents . |
| 107 | In fact , great success has been achieved in some areas where it faces fewer restrictions . |
| 108 | It is a good way to ease the problem for the countries having small population . |
| 109 | This not only minimises the chance of them developing the disease but more importantly reduces the chance of dying early . |
| 110 | To top things off , economic growth would allow an increase in spending in R&D so the medical facilities would be more technologically advanced and be cheaper to produce due to superior technology . Therefore , services from such facilities would become cheaper and hence spending overall would fall . |
| 111 | Second , the problems as regards to the privacy brought by the technology could be reduced or even avoided when the regulations around it tends to be more and more perfect . |
| 112 | Moreover , with such a system , human intervention can be avoided during emergencies . |
| 113 | At a small cost of a slightly slower speed , accidents can be prevented and reduced if drivers practice safe and considerate driving . |
| 114 | In addition , the low cost of SFR exactly benefits a lot for its economic requirement and fetches up the difference of its performance . |
| 115 | Effective medication would translate into a shorter time spent in hospitals . |
| 116 | Current technologies have provided aids and support to the elderly in the fields of personal health technologies by reducing the cost and time of medical appointments and increasing the effectiveness of health record tracking . |
| 117 | The aging process has many negative influences globally . However , these may be eased with the help of new science applied to technology . . |
| 118 | Other concepts may have lower capital cost but they also have a lower efficiency . |
| 119 | Thus , it is relatively more cost-saving in a long run . |
| 120 | It can lower the possibility of accidents that are caused by human factors . |
| 121 | Nonetheless , the use of surveillance technology adds convenience and offers opportunities for improvement in our daily lives , from personal safety to health . |
| 122 | This might have reduced the chance of the accident happening . |
| 123 | If both machines and men are well designed , safety will definitely improve and the possibility of accidents will be reduced . |
| 124 | Also , as machines can be sterilized more effectively than humans , there is a lower chance of them being contaminated by external factors , which means less chance of the patient being infected . |
| 125 | This reduces the risk of these patients getting lost . |
| 126 | Most plans have very low requirements , so that to make sure every working individual can benefit from the savings plans provided . |
| 127 | This includes less useless waste , more recyclable waste material and high productivity . |
| 128 | In addition , plastic conduits save sources , cost less and are easily fixed . |
| 129 | It has also since developed into a cost saving technology as it saves not just petrol and gasoline , but also time and effort . |
| 130 | With technological innovation , there are many types of equipment in the market which help to reduce the aging process . |
| 131 | Cost effectiveness , efficiency and safety are held in high regard in most cases , making certain that the products designed will not take a toll on the pockets and be a hazard when they use it . |
| 132 | Therefore it lowers the elderly 's burden on healthcare and improves or stabilizes the health of frail elderly . |
| 133 | Furthermore , as the technology has improved so much , even if an accident happens , the damage is probably not that big . |
| 134 | First it has advanced safe design , which can automatically cool itself down when accident without additional operating system . |
| 135 | It also indicates that medical advances has helped people stay healthy , meaning to say that healthcare costs for the aged may not end up being astronomical . |
| 136 | This precise cut will enable less blood loss and therefore , less scarring . |
| 137 | The lower-income group will also benefit from a well-developed economy as higher economic growth enables a government to provide more healthcare finances to support the elderly . |
| 138 | It has also benefitted many through an increased level of safety and in locating their vehicles . |
| 139 | In this case , the number of the accidents caused by human factors would be decreased . |
| 140 | To ease this aging process , government and other industries initiated various efforts to reduce spending on healthcare and elderly dependency on the younger generation . |
| 141 | Furthermore , the negative social consequences faced by the carrier have been minimized by law . |
| 142 | This may hence deter crimes from happening . |
| 143 | This actually spurred the manufacturers to improve the technology of conversion from gasoline vehicle to dual-fuel vehicle so that the cost can be reduced and more car owners could benefit from the CNG technology . |
| 144 | Technological advances can make the MSR automated in certain sectors and prevent health issues to people working in the vicinity . |
| 145 | Lastly , the cost of building nuclear power plants has greatly been reduced over the years . |
| 146 | More acute cases could be handled by hospitals and the patients who are less serious can recuperate at home with their families . This in turn is also a cheaper alternative for the patients to cope with the rising healthcare cost . |
| 147 | Thus , the time taken to solve criminal cases is tremendously reduced , compared with the crime not being recorded . |
| 148 | This allows a higher safety level for drivers and lower production cost ( Schlapbach , 2009 ) . |
| 149 | Meeting the demand in the market and reducing the cost of medical treatments bringing an infinite possibility to the medical-industry . |
| 150 | This helps to save innocent lives and reduce crime in the country . |
| 151 | These are cheaper support alternatives as compared to leaving elderly patients in hospitals . |
| 152 | The lower cost of flats no doubt brings about advantages , especially making it more affordable for those from the lower income group . |
| 153 | In fact , there are fewer accidental explosions in recent years . |
| 154 | Furthermore , due to the highly automatic system , the capital spent on hiring experienced operators and building offsite monitoring systems can be reduced . |
| 155 | This factor is to confirm that using of the design will not cause harm to the users . |
| 156 | This is because these devices have low probability of causing harmful interference to the users . |
| 157 | These computer simulations take significantly shorter time ; hence , they are a preferred choice as it means that the product can be sold in the market in a shorter period of time . |
| 158 | The scheme will reduce their financial burden that arises from medical bills . |
| 159 | Secondly , it can reduce the possibility of errors which may happen in the process . |
| 160 | Employers would prefer to hire a " healthy worker " because they have a lower frequency of being absent through illness which translates to lower cost in work impairments , hiring temporary replacements and less precaution to be taken to deal with health and safety risks . |
| 161 | In some cases , maintaining a balanced lifestyle can reduce the risk of getting the disorder as well ( Rahman , 2009 ) . |
| 162 | Then safety can be ensured , or even though accident happens , the loss can be eliminated . |
| 163 | Research has shown that reducing the calorie intake can decrease the negative effects of aging . |
| 164 | For an example , elderly with little ailment often seek the best treatment as they are provided with either free or subsidized treatments . |
| 165 | It makes the search for missing people much easier and this helps to deter criminals from committing crimes like kidnapping . |
| 166 | The refueling can be done online , therefore minimizing the danger of the workers . |
| 167 | This in turn slows down the ageing process and promotes a healthy lifestyle . |
| 168 | It reduces the probability of making mistakes and the level of seriousness of accidents . |
| 169 | And by decreasing the accident and failure rate of the products of one design group , they will earn more chances and reputation . |
| 170 | Cutting Calories Slightly Can Reduce Aging Damage . |
| 171 | Therefore , technology has played a vital role to eliminate or slow down the negative effects of aging . |
| 172 | Manufacturing costs including materials , expertise requirement and manpower have effectively been lessened with this concept . |
| 173 | They have integrated safety design and back-up systems to prevent accidents due to human errors and carelessness , therefore reducing the likelihood and degree of vector core damage . |
| 174 | Technologies lower the requirement for physically demanding tasks . |
| 175 | It is true that dangers still exist , however , with the development of the technology , it is desirable that those dangers could be overcome . |
| 176 | Thus , possible accidents may be prevented . |
| 177 | As analyzed , by removing the errors above , the accident can be prevented . |
| 178 | Furthermore , it also became more affordable in the sense that the insurances covered certain repair costs incurred by mishaps ; and loans allowed people to pay up slowly because there was no " pay by instalments " scheme back then . |
| 179 | " Patients experience less trauma , blood loss , risk of infection , scarring and pain . |
| 180 | this decreases the chances of theft . |
| 181 | Secondly , automation helps to reduce the social cost and reduces the need for the younger generation to take care of the aging population . |
| 182 | The main idea of safety in a product is to ensure that the utilization of the product does not cause any injury or death to the user . |
| 183 | It also operates at lower pressure compared to other contenders . |
| 184 | Thus , the responsibility of the younger generation can be greatly reduced , such as the need of caretakers and medical costs . |
| 185 | In fact , this problem can be solved and prevented . |
| 186 | Thus , the danger coefficient is greatly reduced . |
| 187 | These affirmations hold true that potential dangers are minimized dramatically . |
| 188 | Alternatively , companies should allocate another job which is more suitable and does not put the employee at risk |
| 189 | ( Key Budget Initiatives ) Patients can then recuperate at these community hospitals which generate savings and increase efficiency on treatment of more acute cases . |
| 190 | These will really improve the safety aspect of the car . |
| 191 | In terms of an economic downturn , such policy can actually reduce spending on the ageing population and healthcare to a great extent . |
| 192 | A recent research shows that lighter meals may prolong human life by having calories-restricted diets . |
| 193 | By introducing such policies , the government ensures that the elderly do not have to be afraid that they might face difficulties at work with rising competition from the younger generations . |
| 194 | Technological advances have eased the execution of surveillance activities . |
| 195 | Then , to minimize human error , one way is to minimize manual labor and computerize the whole operating process . |
| 196 | In this way , not only the reliance on the government will decrease , Singaporeans will be more protected and not be at the mercy of the others when disease strikes . |
| 197 | New discoveries in medicine , technological inventions and also economics have been helping to slow down the aging process . |
| 198 | Besides , it generates little waste and some of them can be recycled . |
| 199 | Community hospitals are built to allow the elderly patients , usually with chronic illnesses , to recover with the assistance of a professional medical team but at a lower cost . |
| 200 | Actual precision such as keyhole techniques produces less scarring and less blood loss . |
| 201 | Otherwise , it would have at least weakened the severity of the consequences . |
| 202 | Right now , there is research to reduce the cost by improving the design of SFR and the most prominent is probably by improving the design of the core of SFR . |
| 203 | It also facilitates driving within Singapore by making it smoother and providing alternatives roads , which were lesser as compared to the past . |
| 204 | They also have to be cheap and safe , which is beneficial for the users ( Buongiorno , 2002 ) . |
| 205 | Furthermore , learning from the mistakes of past experiences , accidents caused by human errors can be greatly reduced . |
| 206 | One of the common methods to ensure this is by surveillance technology and this has significantly helped Singapore to be one of the countries with the lowest crime rates . |
| 207 | Hence , this shows that safety precautions have been set to prevent accidents . |
| 208 | One point in favour of SCWR is that scientists plan to manufacture it with simple and economical design . |
| 209 | Since human problems are inevitably a large portion in this chain reactions , the removal ( or the minimization ) of the human factors will undoubtedly , prevent or reduce accidents . |
| 210 | However , if the person maintains a positive attitude and lives a healthy lifestyle , the aging process could be slowed down . |
| 211 | The cost is reduced and business risks are not so high as those of the traditional reactors . |
| 212 | So , besides the reasons above , it is also very cheap to use these renewable resources so users can get a lot of economical benefits from that . |
| 213 | This is to ensure " improved continuity and coordination of care " ( Roberti 2007 ) and to reduce the possibilities of " adverse drug events and other medical errors " ( Roberti 2007 ) . |
| 214 | Furthermore , there is much room for improvements in fuel to energy efficiency ; with innovation towards developing upgrades for conventional generators to better utilizing the usual energy lost because heat , the amount of fuel needed and therefore greenhouse gas emissions could see a decrease of more than 20 percent . |
| 215 | After all , the benefits of this measure will definitely outweigh the limitations , and the measure is able to cut down the amount spent in the medical sector in future . |
| 216 | From the government 's view , this strategy really saves a lot of money for them . |
| 217 | Firstly , the SCWR design concept is one that requires lower cost for development . |
| 218 | The more work he does in anticipating problems , the less he will encounter . |
| 219 | Monitoring programs that make use of technology like the one used by the Visiting Nurse Services of the Northwest ease the burden of the elderly having to go to the clinic and also save the trouble for the aged to go through the procedure of medical examination . |
| 220 | However , the worries are unnecessary since the increasingly secure and private operations that are being set up could reduce the possibility of unintended access to information . |
| 221 | This would improve the lives of everyone in general and also help to give cheap and good health care for the elderly . |
| 222 | Nevertheless , this can be solved by the flexi-work hour program such that the elder group can work shorter hours and not ruin their health . |
| 223 | Hence , it is perceived that public spending on the aged could be reduced and be switched to the healthcare sector in providing more quality medical services for all in the future . |
| 224 | This will help ease the burden on the government as the people are able to afford their own medical fees through their own savings . |
| 225 | Technological advances have eased the carrying out of surveillance activities . |
| 226 | In addition , which may cause an accident is low due to the continuous removal of mobile fission products . |
| 227 | Therefore , with the low cost needed to develop and run the SCWR , it will be an apt choice for more funding and development . |
| 228 | They can reduce the chance by practicing a healthy lifestyle and through other means . |
| 229 | However , safety issue would be less of a concern once the GFR concept is deployed . |
| 230 | Other attributes include punctuality , lower absenteeism and less concern about monetary returns . |
| 231 | However , the anxiety can be eased by SFR due to its non-proliferation attributes . |
| 232 | However , the development in technology has eventually overcome such problems . |
| 233 | Building more community hospitals is also vitall to the elderly as community hospitals can provide lower costs and special care for elderly patients to recuperate after being discharged from General Hospitals . |
| 234 | The mass production of medicine lowers the cost of the drugs . |
| 235 | Nowadays , we use fossil fuel in most cases , because it is convenient and has low cost of production . |
| 236 | The additional cost spent is far less significant than the payoffs if an accident occurs . |
| 237 | Public request for subsidies to cover the latest medical treatments , the improvement of service quality , and the reduction of fees for subsidized specialist consultants are becoming more common . |
| 238 | For example , Medisave helps when they are younger to save money for their future medical expenses . It allows more people to be able buy affordable insurance since its premium can be deducted from their Medisave accounts , while Central Provident Funds allow people to be less worried about their silver age expenses , include medical expenses . |
| 239 | This is a much promising system for its potential for low development cost , better performance and least research and development processes . |
| 240 | Technologies have been deployed to assist elderly people in day to day activities to counter or decrease disadvantages they face due to their less athletic bodies . |
| 241 | Thus , the time and computer hardware space needed to view a video is effectively shortened to provide greater convenience . |
| 242 | By employing such an operation , government would thus be able to prevent any possible mishap from happening . |
| 243 | By having less restriction from the company , the elderly will also easily suit the job scope . |
| 244 | Robotic surgery is useful in some ways such as microscopic precision ; it saves manpower and ergonomics . |
| 245 | The SCWR has proven itself to be more capable at both high performance and low cost . |
| 246 | With cheaper transports , people would have more money to spend , improving the economy . |
| 247 | Nevertheless , current development in technology has produced a variety of devices that help simplify the aging process . |
| 248 | In addition , elderly workers tend to have lower turnover rates for employment , which is beneficial to the company . |
| 249 | Thus , the disaster may be prevented . |
| 250 | As the field of medicine rapidly progresses , many illnesses and ailments previously difficult to treat treat have now been reduced to mere inconveniences . |
| 251 | It is also a research emphasis to achieve low system cost ( Khalil , n.d ) . |
| 252 | Secondly , by setting boundaries on public spending , people will be less reliant on the government to take care of their every need such as in healthcare . |
| 253 | However , with the help of current research and development , the aging process can be slowed down through technological innovation and new discoveries made by researchers and scientists . |
| 254 | Furthermore monitoring ex- criminals will not only forbid them from committing crimes again , but more importantly , allow the public to have a peace of mind employing them , subsequently making them feel accepted by the society . |
| 255 | In view of the rising fuel prices in the recent decade , car manufacturers have addressed the need to reduce costs in production , so as to be able to pass on minimal costs to the consumers , yet still remain competitive and appealing in the market . |
| 256 | Hence , healthcare needs can be met without increasing the financial burden faced by the people . |
| 257 | So the amount of chemical substances used will be largely reduced . |
| 258 | Secondly , technology advancement will enable the aged to live independently even if they suffer with chronic diseases and their children can spend more time to focus on their work . |
| 259 | It is specifically designed to be very safe and free from accidents . |
| 260 | At least the effect of the disorder can be reduced . |
| 261 | The aim is to minimize the number of hospital trips made . |
| 262 | The earlier delivery means the earlier alleviation of these impending problems and more payback . |
| 263 | This will reduce medical expenses for the elderly . |
| 264 | People tend to go for simpler designs , because of the long time required to create a proper full design . |
| 265 | This also means that less healthcare spending is required to sustain these affluent elderly people . |
| 266 | In this way , there would not be a huge time period where the patient is left with an open incision , thereby keeping any possible chances of infection to a minimum . |
| 267 | It will then ensure stability of the vehicle . |
| 268 | It incorporates a simplified safety features without relying too much on sophisticated backup systems and competent personals , and thus any attempt to sabotage the facility will be in vain . |
| 269 | These two schemes created by the government would greatly relieve the burden of healthcare costs for the aged and so it would definitely benefit the aged . |
| 270 | These solutions greatly reduce the need for physical presences of family members because the manual tasks are now automated . |
| 271 | [ 3 ] It is widely used as the fuel in MSRs , so this can commercially reduce the cost in terms of fuel source . |
| 272 | This is to ensure that older people will have the right health care treatment at the right place and in return help them to cut costs ( as cited in The Straits Times , 2009 ) . |
| 273 | As a result , the government sees fewer cases of residents unable to afford healthcare and social medical workers have reported that Medifund is enough to cover hospital bills . |
| 274 | Moving on to the cost , SCWR does offer much savings . |
| 275 | By linking up hospitals with community ones , appropriate care can be given to the the elderly . This reduces the expenditure and releases the beds in the hospital for more acute cases . |
| 276 | This means that there will be minimal chance of weapon proliferation and reduced pollution to the environment . |
| 277 | Thus by using such gizmo , such occurrence of death could be reduced . |
| 278 | In this way , the elderly obtain appropriate care aat the same time as lowering health care and freeing up beds in hospitals for more critical cases which need to be treated ( " Healthcare system to be reconstructed " , 2009 ) . |
| 279 | Lastly , limited public spending on healthcare will encourage more working adults to take better care of their elderly parents . |
| 280 | By lowering the retirement age , an organization could seek for cheaper employment in a less developed country . However , it may face a high turnover rate as the younger generations do not stay long in jobs , unlike the elderly . |
| 281 | As long as we use it appropriately , surveillance technology will not have bad influences in our life but make it better . |
| 282 | At the very least , it would have had weakened the severity of the consequences . |
| 283 | Nonetheless , these problems can be solved with advancing technology . |
| 284 | Firstly , it cuts down on the waiting time to be attended to . |
| 285 | Hence , there is less reliance on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators . |
| 286 | Hence the total time consumed is much shorter than compared to the technology developed through research . |
| 287 | This does not only protect the companies ' interest but also protect hopeful employees from aggravating their conditions . |
| 288 | This means that the time and money required to do the research for SFR are much less than that of SWCR . |
| 289 | This replacement migration has not only helped to ease the ageing process when older Koreans started to retire , which resulted in the decrease of manpower in certain specialization , it also has helped to buffer the current shortage of labor in the market . |
| 290 | This would in turn ease the cost of healthcare for elders and indirectly has the same effect as funding elders ' healthcare costs directly . |
| 291 | This policy is workable as the elderly can recuperate better in a community hospital as they do not have to worry much about the medical fees . |
| 292 | However , there are ways to reduce the possibility of this human-caused accident . |
| 293 | In addition , supporters of the SCWR also state that the SCWR takes up less space than current Generation ( II ) and ( III ) Reactors ( MacDonald , 2003 ) . |
| 294 | In addition , there are laws and regulation that is implemented to prevent the abuse of such technology . |
| 295 | Even though there are shortages that still exist , it is believed that with the development of the technology , all the problems will be solved and all the difficulties can be overcome . |
| 296 | Current medical policies have been improved to better protect the elderly from situations where medical care may leave them with debts , which will adversely affect their financial condition . |
| 297 | This problem is solved with the use of subsides for elderly by the government , to keep medical fees for these new treatment methods within an affordable range . |
| 298 | Without many advertisements to disguise the truth , users can process the information more conveniently . |
| 299 | With these new hospitals , the aged patients get better treatment . They do not have to wait too long and travel too far to a particular hospital to see the doctor . |
| 300 | Similarly , not so many products will be stolen . |
| 301 | In order to reduce the fuel cost , many people preferred CNG cars in that period . |
| 302 | SCWRs are also cheap and efficient to run and build . |
| 303 | Nowadays , fewer and fewer jobs require certain level of performance . |
| 304 | This solution of indication can prove to be very useful , when an accident or traffic congestion occurs . |
| 305 | An example will be SWCR that is efficient and cheap to run ( Butler , 2004 ) , making it worthwhile to fund its research . |
| 306 | Expanding the railway line will reduce the time spent on traveling . |
| 307 | In contrast , the SCWRs require the least amount of R&D for its implementation . |
| 308 | This helps the individual to avoid certain occupations that might increase the risk of having to face ill health or end up in a life threatening situation during one 's course of work ( Nuffiel Council , 1997 ) . |
| 309 | Moreover the cost of over-night construction can be cut off , which will save up a great deal of money . |
| 310 | Operations can be carried out with extra care to reduce the risk of complications . |
| 311 | Therefore , during any emergency process , the required human intervention is minimized . |
| 312 | The development of science has made the process of surveillance much simpler and easier . |
| 313 | The design could have incorporated automated controls to reduce the number of errors that could be made . |
| 314 | However , a series of technical countermeasures , policies and regulatory initiatives had been introduced to minimise and possibly prevent these adverse effects ( Srivastava , 2007 , para . |
| 315 | Furthermore , this would reduce the dependency on fuel in the future for cars , should one day the world has run out of fuel . |
| 316 | In fact , these costs are all affordable compared with other kinds of energy generation methods . |
| 317 | Such kind of little size ensures a low possibility of hurting the human organs . |
| 318 | Therefore , we need to create machines which consume less energy . |
| 319 | However , a recent introduction by the Singaporean government has eliminated this problem . |
| 320 | However , with the increasing affluence and standard of living , the people are now able to purchase cars and thus , getting around would not be so much of a hassle . |
| 321 | The newly invented laptops were able to overcome these problems because of their small size and the ability to be carried around conveniently . |
| 322 | Besides being dependable for its continuous supply of power , it is also the cheapest and the safest alternative among all choices . |
| 323 | To conclude , not only are the renewable fuels a lot more eco-friendly , but they are also widely and cheaply available . |
| 324 | Therefore , the younger people who are the breadwinners of the family are more relaxed and under less pressure , so their work will be more efficient but less stressful . |
| 325 | At the same time , monitoring also reduces the liability between employers and employees , and results in the decrease in morale in the latter . |
| 326 | Because the recovery time of patients becomes shorter , patients will have to pay much less on nursing . |
| 327 | Moreover , the intention of reducing the fuel cost also shaped the development of the CNG vehicle . |
| 328 | Calorie restricted diets can induce a slowdown of the aging process and increases survival , resistance to diseases , prevents brain deterioration and lastly reduces muscle loss . |
| 329 | Public transportation is one area that could be improved if a country limited its spending on the elderly and raised its spending for the former . |
| 330 | It has made tracking people a simpler task . |
| 331 | Yet , by further improving current technology and policies , the aging problem might eventually be resolved . |
| 332 | Hence , with a more efficient safety system , there is no need to be afraid of disasters from happening . |
| 333 | As the community hospitals charge less . |
| 334 | If there is some trouble , the reaction will automatically stop and the temperature will gradually cool down to avoid dangers . |
| 335 | In today 's medical world , many health concerns raised by people have been taken care of by the perpetual advancement in technology . |
| 336 | With the company and cooperation of family members , constructive lifestyle modification such as adopting healthy diet , exercising as well as reducing alcohol and cigarette consumption can be easily implemented . |
| 337 | All administrative issues will be settled in a much shorter time to allow the project to begin earlier . |
| 338 | Hence , system would be incorporated with proper safety features to prevent accident . |
| 339 | Furthermore , organizations offering subsidies to the elderly workforce helps to minimize unemployment rates and high turnovers . |
| 340 | Engineers can design new kinds of machines and find new material which can be used to manufacture instruments so that less energy is consumed . |
| 341 | Actually , the construction cost of nuclear power plants keeps on decreasing in the past few years . |
| 342 | As these equipments or machines may calm down , give strength , relax the body , improves self-sensation and trigger regeneration mechanisms ( The " Medical Club Ltd " , 2008 ) . |
| 343 | As for those couples who are facing infertility problems , the government can minimize such social problems by maximizing the use of current technology simultaneously with the aid of new policies and subsidy schemes to make infertility treatments more affordable . |
| 344 | Firstly , business depends on a reliable network of transportation , as time saved will be money saved . |
| 345 | This money can be put to better use like getting medication for their people . |
| 346 | Thus surveillance technology has become a necessity rather than a burden as we can not do without it . |
| 347 | ( Kamil Tuek , 2006 ) In fact , the number of incidents that may lead to severe accidents has been declining in recent years . |
| 348 | It consequently helps to prevent major catastrophes , which involve the loss of human lives ( Michael & Rose , 2007 , p.8 ) . |
| 349 | They will receive more encouragement , as well as other help in terms of money , medicine and so on ( Croft , 2009 ) . |
| 350 | By acknowledging that the elderly are slightly slower than their younger counterparts , companies can arrange for more suitable jobs for them . |
| 351 | The SCWR is clearly the reactor to receive more funding , as it requires the least cost and research to be developed . |
| 352 | However , although the cost of healthcare is greatly reduced , there are cases whereby the elderly who are childless and do not have any savings or income , do not have any medisave to pay for the large amount of medical fee incurred . |
| 353 | These policies have helped to ensure that people will be more able to pay for their future medical expenses . |
| 354 | This can ultimately lead to the reduction of work-days lost . |
| 355 | If they limited the amount being spent on the elderly , they can use their money to buy back the public transportation , and provide reasonable fares to the public . |
| 356 | Since elderly have brittle bones , more resting areas with lower benches have also been built to cater to their needs . |
| 357 | As for the elderly , they will be able to save time travelling to places such as hospitals , community centers , etc . |
| 358 | But they should be willing to adapt to technological changes as these are there to help humans cope with their daily activities ; there are also alternatives provided to these changes so that society would not to neglect the elderly . |
| 359 | The road users would not pay more for an underpowered vehicle or to be environmenenvironmentally friendly . |
| 360 | By providing medical benefits and asking them to go for checkups every year , the number of elderly with severe health problems can be reduced . |
| 361 | In this way , more competent healthcare is provided satisfy the demands , since geriatric patients can receive treatment in acute hospitals and then recuperate in the community hospitals . |
| 362 | The time would be much shorter than one year and the quality of this invention would be much better . |
| 363 | Without this feature , the wearer might suffer a serious accident if he or she falls . |
| 364 | If an accident occurs , the public will be prevented from the impact of the accident . |
| 365 | With the help of bio-technology , various types of massaging equipments and machines have been invented to ease the process of ageing . |
| 366 | But I strongly feel that those who want to purchase the car will not mind paying a little more if it is going to provide a safer ride on the roads . |
| 367 | As a result , doctors and their staff can reduce the amount of in gathering healthcare background information for the elderly and reduce the amount of complicated paperwork . |
| 368 | The market for such a device is growing very quickly due to its affordable price and widespread use ( Sieberg D , 2006 ) . |
| 369 | However , critics may argue that employers may hire younger workers due to their lower wages and higher working efficiency as compared to older workers . |
| 370 | Of course , the company has its reasons to do so such as tracking their vehicles and also providing better service to their customers . |
| 371 | This can alleviate theft rate in the factories . |
| 372 | For instance , The Government can subsidize their medical expense so that the aged can have lower rates on health care spending . |
| 373 | However , with less waste produced it means that the same fuel is reused several times . |
| 374 | Critics of this position often point out that there are already established health care system and policies in place to subsidise the cost of health care and that changes are frequently introduced to improve them . |
| 375 | The government can limit its expenditure on the medical fees for the older population and use the money to invest in the education of the younger population and develop the country . |
| 376 | The first being that single design errors tend not to cause mishaps because of the defense- in-depth designs in many installations of complex and high-hazard nature . |
| 377 | They are much smaller , lighter than the laptops and can be fitted into small bags comfortably . |
| 378 | However , as medical science and technology develops at a breakneck pace , many of the illnesses are no longer feared . |
| 379 | With less frequent visits to hospital , the amount of money spent on medical bills would decrease . |
| 380 | It might help to maintain the security of those places as well as find out if there is any robber or thief , thus reducing the crime rate ( The Economist print edition , 2008 ) . |
| 381 | That is the best approach to prevent accidents . |
| 382 | Finally , most of the technology challenges can be overcome . |
| 383 | As such , with the different types of facilities and medical developments available , the elderly no longer have to suffer in silence . |
| 384 | With the development of new software and hardware , minimizing the size of robots can be achieved ( Thomas,2007 ) . |
| 385 | In addition , individual effort like getting sufficient sleep and nutrition has to be made to slow down the aging process physically and mentally . |
| 386 | The " Stop at two " policy had been so successful that couples in Singapore saw that they could have a better standard of living with a smaller family . |
| 387 | This is to prevent abuse of policies . |
| 388 | As a result , the abuse of surveillance technology may not be a big issue . |
| 389 | The cost incurred will offset the benefit that it may bring . |
| 390 | Apart from this , the loads of the strut used were smaller than expected . |
| 391 | These training programmes ensure that the elderly are properly cared for with upmost professionalism and efficiency to make certain that they do not face any obstacles . |
| 392 | This prescription provides alternatives to improve old age health issues such as memory loss and weaker bones . |
| 393 | In view of this , I believe that this is the appropriate direction we should adopt to prevent major accidents from happening . |
| 394 | In a broad sense , the shift of governmental focus allowed for the booming of video calls function as it is now much affordable . |
| 395 | Through this , the government ensures that the aged get the proper treatments to reduce their sufferings . |
| 396 | Usually , when one owns a home , one will be more motivated to work so as to have a better home and thoughts of migrating would be lesser . |
| 397 | Besides , declining cost in oil in the past encouraged people to buy gasoline cars . |
| 398 | In providing employment for the elderly , its effects may be reduced |
| 399 | Firstly , common aging effects such as wrinkles , hair loss and weight issues can be countered to a certain level with the current state of technology . |
| 400 | Some argue that the government has given a reasonable subsidy in healthcare , especially for the poor . |
| 401 | By applying this figure , the number of plants calculated by the opponents can significantly be minimized . |
| 402 | In addition , cars must be low in cost despite having all the functionalities . |
| 403 | In conclusion , obstacles like lack of materials , safety problems and high construction cost can all be overcome . |
| 404 | However , there are laws in place ( Norrgand , 2008 ) that will prevent such occurrences . |
| 405 | incorrect in-text reference ) , product safety is an important stage of engineering design , which assures that usage of the design , will not cause any injury to humans . |
| 406 | The SCWR requires the least to develop , compared with the other reactors . |
| 407 | Subsequently , it counterbalances its large cost to a great extent . |
| 408 | The government can limit the expenditure because the burden of healthcare can be borne by the family members of the aged through schemes like MediSave . |
| 409 | This takes care of a potential risk , human error . |
| 410 | Due to the speed of advancement of technology , people have taken it for granted and are expecting more for less . |
| 411 | It can be utilized in more in-depth research that develops new and inexpensive medicinal drugs for the public . |
| 412 | Nowadays , advances in technology have made tracking people no longer an uphill task . |
| 413 | First of all , technology makes it possible to retard aging to some extent . |
| 414 | This reduces the possible reliance of public funds for funding medical expenses for the elderly . |
| 415 | Although this scheme does not provide 100 % coverage on their medical bills , patients will have a smaller burden when the majority of the medical bills are heavily subsidised by the government and supported by Medisave . |
| 416 | The rate of unemployment will decrease . |
| 417 | Secondly , search engine is a relatively easier tool that everyone can accept . |
| 418 | Yet the costs for nuclear power generation have been dropping significantly over the last decade . |
| 419 | Given that the technology base exists for the SFR , it is said that not much additional extensive research has to done . |
| 420 | Technology has made our life so convenient that we have overlooked the { repercussions that comes with it . |
| 421 | Singapore in this aspect has done a good job by providing minimal ,yet sufficient , welfare benefits to the population . |
| 422 | Thus , a large amount of money can be saved . |
| 423 | Some would argue that this policy would help older workers retain their job and get employment as the cost to employers is lowered . |
| 424 | Even though the car has no emission , which overall helps to save the environment , but many drivers are concerned with the overall cost of owning a car . |
| 425 | Thus , due to mechanization and automation , workers have a smaller decrease in productivity due to age , allowing elderly people to work at an older age than could be done in the past . |
| 426 | If employers have the flexibility to hire older employees on a part-time basis , , they will be much less reluctant to hire and retain older workers . |
| 427 | Therefore , this shows that the technology of solar energy has its own limitations too , which hopefully would be resolved soon so that it can become an accessible source of energy for everyone in the near future . |
| 428 | In conclusion , surveillance technology has undoubtedly brought us great convenience despite the fact that one 's privacy is marginally sacrificed . |
| 429 | In terms of the research needed , the SCWR has the least amount of research needed . |
| 430 | The system gives out subsidies to refund people 's medical expenditure , aiming to improve health standard . |
| 431 | Researches on healthcare are being done to help maintain or improve the health of the elderly . |
| 432 | Twinning the current general hospitals with community hospitals , which are run by charitable organizations , will make healthcare affordable for all , especially the aged . |
| 433 | It is understandable that older people often require more medical care , but they need not remain in the hospital for this care . |
| 434 | Although families who needed a car as a mode of transport did not usually need to travel for long distances , there is a psychological perception of having their freedom being restricted . |
| 435 | This tremendous change is due to the population demand ; the mini sized phone is so much more convenient compared to the 1kg phone . |
| 436 | They may meet a lot of problems and may want to change the technologies . |
| 437 | So what engineers should do is to invent new machines which can consume less energy and find new types of resources to replace the old non renewable ones . |

| 440 | These offers made by the government made these vehicles competitive against petroleum cars in price . |
| 441 | The " natural " factor that caused a spike in the number of gasoline-powered vehicles was the declining cost of oil at that point in time , which made gasoline-powered vehicles a stronger competitor over the electric-powered vehicles , which were the more commonly- used vehicle . |

| 16 | Education can also help to raise the awareness of the young as well as increasing their understanding of the need for them to play a part in dealing with the problems of an aging population . |

| 22 | Children need good education so that they can become well-versed and contribute to the country " s development . |
| 23 | Furthermore , better education for the younger generation would lead . |
| 24 | Many education policies have been reviewed and improved over the years to promote the importance of education . |
| 25 | Improving education is also a way to develop countries and a solution to the aging problem . |
| 26 | Good education is necessary not only for society but also for people who do not want to face financial difficulties when they retire . |
| 27 | In addition , economic growth can come about through diverting funds into more valuable areas like education . |
| 28 | Education is such an indispensable part of our lives that need improving to catch up with others ; overall , it should be given priority and development . |
| 29 | Education will have a positive impact on the economy . |
| 30 | Without a good education system , there will not be a well-educated intellectual generation for the country . |

| 32 | In most countries , education is considered to be one of the fundamental sectors that the country 's government can develop and improve on . |
| 33 | Lastly , educating the younger generation is essential to a nation 's economic growth . |
| 34 | Education prepares the younger generations for the future workforce , making them more affluent and teaching them to achieve success . |

| 38 | Emphasis should also be placed on the education sector as it is crucial to the country 's development . |
| 39 | It is crucial that the country has a good education system for future economic development . |
| 40 | More money should be diverted to education for the development of the younger generation to deal with . |
| 41 | The main way to produce competent people is to develop education . |
| 42 | Hence , there is a need for public spending in terms of better training for teachers , better school facilities such as advanced technological equipments and schemes for an all rounded curriculum . |
| 43 | With more money invested in education , the schools and universities will have more modern educational equipment , better teachers , and most importantly , reduce tuition fees so that more people can study and have better education . |
| 44 | Education is a good example that helps to solve this issue more effectively . |

| 48 | Besides that , expenditure can be channeled into increasing the subsidies in education to encourage people to study . |
| 49 | Investment in education benefits the individual , society , and the world . |
| 50 | Investment in education will also lead to development in the country as education serves as a platform for further development in all other sectors such as R&D and Health . |
| 51 | By investing the money on areas such as healthcare and education , the future aging population will be better prepared . |
| 52 | Funds are also needed to provide effective educational programs to ensure that the young are equipped with fine skills to cope with the demands of the society . |
| 53 | For example , the education for our youths , the nurturing of the country 's youth is more important as these are the people who will eventually be the ones to carry the responsibility of maintaining the economic state of the country and to ensure a brighter future for her people . |
| 54 | Educating the population not only improve the economy by allowing them to become more efficient , but also allow them to plan for their retirement . |
| 55 | In contrast to the above , although public spending on the aged is essential , there is also a need for investment of resources in the educational sector to provide better education for the younger generation . |
| 56 | Having received education increases the probability of one being employed which helps to promote economical growth . |
| 57 | First of all , investment should be focused more on education as it takes a higher priority than other fields of development because education plays a very important role in the society , determining the wealth and success of the entire nation . |
| 58 | These programs are essential to ensure the development of a country in the near future ( economic development programs ) and in the long run ( education programs ) . |
| 59 | Money should be spent on education , research and growing the country 's economy so that people can have larger income to tap on . |
| 60 | Therefore , by providing education and investment into R&D help generate capital for the country . |
| 61 | Education can prepare the younger generation to be more skilful and productive when they 're at the working-age . |
| 62 | By ensuring that the younger generations are well educated , we would be assured of achieving growth and stability for the nation . |
| 63 | Providing subsidies for education and scholarships encourage students to excel in their academic work . |
| 64 | With support provided by the government to educate children , parents can save a substantial amount while allowing their children to receive education . |
| 65 | The productivity and revenue of a country can be improved tremendously due to a well-established educational structure . |
| 66 | The first reason is that if people are not educated well in their young days , their lives in old age will be very vulnerable as people with more education tend to have higher incomes and better health . |
| 67 | One example of necessary financial support is the investment on developing and upgrading the current facilities used in education , including information technology equipment , laboratories and library systems . |
| 68 | Public spending should focus on areas that play an important part in the country 's development as in the education sector . |
| 69 | The most important area should be education , as education helps people to acquire the necessary skills needed for work . |
| 70 | Education should be provided for every person since young because one will become more knowledgeable about the things around him or her . |
| 71 | Hence , public spending on the education should be stressed as well since it helps to solve the aging issue more effectively , rather than keeping on spending money on the elderly |
| 72 | improving the quality of education means increasing the quality of future 's work force and this should boost the nation 's growth in every sector . |
| 73 | Education marks the beginning of the human capital investment which will benefit the country 's economy in the long run . |
| 74 | Firstly , investment in education is vital in promoting economic growth . |
| 75 | Educating the young in their early age is essential to the country 's development and growth . |
| 76 | Education plays an important part in the country 's development and growth as it helps in nurturing the young who are the country 's future . |
| 77 | With advanced education , we can develop new technologies for higher productivity and lower cost , which helps the young generation fill the gap of low workforce caused by the aging population and take up the burden of caring for the aged . |
| 78 | Educational institutions provide quality teaching while re-training centres impart new skills so that skills do not become obsolete . |
| 79 | First and forth most , education is one of the aspects that could greatly help to boost a country 's economy . |
| 80 | Or these funds could be used to improve the education , communication and transportation infrastructure of a country , thereby improving the standard of living for the nation . |
| 81 | First , education is a big issue that the government should improve to make citizens more talented and creative . |
| 82 | When there is more expenditure on social services , education , infrastructure and development , there is a greater chance for the country to build a better economy. . |
| 83 | In conclusion , by spending more on both the economy and education , we will be able to decrease the effects of the aging problem . |
| 84 | Large amount of funds are pumped into the education sector so that the younger generation can receive the best education . |
| 85 | Education plays a critical role in helping a country grow from phase to phase . |
| 86 | If the younger generation is well taken care of and educated , in the long run , they will form the working-age population and are more economically productive . |
| 87 | In addition to implementing special policies , the government could allocate more funds for educating young people . |
| 88 | Firstly , education sets the foundation for a country to progress economically as well as socially . |
| 89 | Higher expenditure on areas like infrastructure and education , allows the country to achieve greater economic growth which in turn will solve the problems of aging population . |
| 90 | In the end , this strategy may improve the nation 's economy and education quality , as well as increase the amount of public spending for the aged . |
| 91 | However , by diverting the money into the area of education , we can provide the young with education that will help them in their later life . |
| 92 | Education is also an important part of the country 's development . |
| 93 | Through education , individuals are armed with the necessary skills and knowledge which would increase their productivity and competitiveness in the labour market . |
| 94 | Moreover , a high quality education system will be beneficial for the next generation , as exhibited by the ripple effect . |
| 95 | The economy may need immediate attention with its current situation and the education sector may need improvement . |
| 96 | One such method is increased focus on education . |
| 97 | More public funds could be allocated to education , and upgrading the skills for workers and building projects . |
| 98 | Education should also pay a part in allowing the future citizens to know the importance of early retirement preparation and planning . |
| 99 | Subsequently , it is important to have a good education system so as to equip the future generations with the right knowledge and train them in becoming the future leaders of the country . |
| 100 | Thus , the government should nurture the younger generations to be productive through the use of public funds . |
| 101 | The education sector is very important to a country as it nurtures the young and turns them into useful adults . |
| 102 | In addition , emphasis should be placed on educating the younger generation , as they will be the future workforce . |
| 103 | Education is one of the very important a country should develop . |
| 104 | For instance , education is the most important part to invest in , knowing that new generations will be the future work force and take over the power and leadership position . |
| 105 | However , I believe that the government should put in more resources in the realm of education . |
| 106 | As such , the government has placed great emphasis on developing our education sector to ensure that the country maintains its global and regional competitiveness . |
| 107 | Education for the youth should be stressed more , school and other facilities ought to be built . |
| 108 | A proper educational structure will nurture more knowledgeable and capable people in the future to run the country . |
| 109 | Education plays a very important role in a nation 's development , as it is the most basic platform for a society to learn and improve . |
| 110 | An education provides a platform for the youths to face the challenges in the future . |
| 111 | ) .Hence , diverting money to children should help to improve their quality of life . |
| 112 | In the same pattern , once the educational level is raised , people can be more aware of how to take care of themselves , as well as to live long and healthily . |
| 113 | The more effectively students are educated , the more productive and responsible the citizens we have . |
| 114 | The country 's budget allocation should place greater emphasis on education for the younger generation . |
| 115 | In order to do so , education plays an important role . |
| 116 | When the government steps in to provide subsidies for eligible students to further their education , the country has a population with higher qualifications as it covers more of those less fortunate families who could not afford the huge amount of school fees . |
| 117 | In order to have a well-trained workforce to cope with a knowledge-based economy of the 21st century , the government has to provide more funds to ensure that the people are receiving a more all-rounded education by introducing a more extensively planned academic program , building more educational institutions and hiring and training more educators . |
| 118 | At first glance , spending on education may seem to be more important than aiding the elderly as what we teach the youths will determine the future of the nation . |
| 119 | Additional Universities and specialized schools can be built to enroll more students therefore allowing more citizens to get an education . |
| 120 | Besides , focus could also be placed upon education for the younger generation . |
| 121 | Not developing our resources ' full potential through education will indeed impede our country 's development . |
| 122 | The government could offer scholarships or offer subsidized school fees based on their income level in order to help to generate more highly educated people so that the effects of having little education and not being able to save during one 's economically active years could be minimized . |
| 123 | Education today should be given more priority and improvements . |
| 124 | I believe that education is one of the more important areas where public money should be spent on . |
| 125 | Investing in education is like investing in the future , so that the future generations are able to meet future challenges . |
| 126 | With improvements in educational facilities , students will be able to access up-to-date knowledge more easily , as well as experiment with and apply what they have learned in reality . |
| 127 | These incentives will encourage children from poorer families to study further . |
| 128 | Therefore , since the improvement of education system and creation of more jobs bring about more long-term benefits than having an unlimited public spending on the aged , money should be diverted to these areas as part of the country 's developments which eventually , will impact the aged positively . |
| 129 | Therefore a portion of public spending should be given to equip the young with the right mind set and skills which are relevant to the needs of the workforce . |
| 130 | For instance , education is also an important area that should be focused on . |
| 131 | Besides , considerable efforts should also be made to educate the public to lead a more healthy life . |
| 132 | Thus education deserves huge financial support from the government . |
| 133 | A portion of the money should be diverted into the sectors which are more important in the long run such as education and |
| 134 | For example , in an increasingly challenging global economy , it becomes increasingly important for countries to focus on education to maintain a skilled workforce . |
| 135 | In addition , the money spent on the country 's development in the area of education and economy can also help to solve the problems of an aging population . |
| 136 | Educating the youth who are our future pillars of support , would equip them with skills so that they can handle potential problems , which in turn could support the elderly population in the future . |
| 137 | Education is equally important because the young will determine the country 's development in the future since they are the ones who will lead the country . |
| 138 | Government should be more focused on education than spending on the aged as spending more in education will probably increase the living standard and the of a country . |
| 139 | Public policies encourage and facilitate education . |
| 140 | It will need to focus on areas such as education and reduce elder dependency . |
| 141 | Studies link education to economic growth as it contributes to improving productivity which leads to higher income and improved economic growth ( The World Bank , 2009 ) . |
| 142 | Investing in education , in my opinion , is the key to growth in any country . |
| 143 | These could be in the form of better school sports and laboratory facilities , more funding for enrichment courses or even upgrading of school compound to accommodate more students . |
| 144 | Education is a key area in which public spending should be utilized to increase a nation 's Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) per capita , labour productivity and international competitive edge . |
| 145 | Spending on education will help in developing the country and eliminating one of the causes of the aging population problem , while spending on industrial development will help in attracting immigrants and keeping the economy running . |
| 146 | Education will be a key component in the acceptability , progress and evolution of RFID technology . |
| 147 | Better education results in better quality of labour . |
| 148 | For this reason , student exchange programs in schools are increasing . |
| 149 | The provision of a higher standard of education also encourages the children to be more independent for their own survival in the future . |
| 150 | Lastly , public spending is required to maintain a high standard of education in various educational institutions . |
| 151 | Investing in the young is more worthwhile than in the aged because they are well-educated and have the potential to make more contributions to the country . |
| 152 | It is a recognized fact that education helps the young to secure a quality job in future and also prepares them with |
| 153 | Secondly , for a country to prosper , it has to invest on its youths through education , which will boost literacy . |
| 154 | Public policies assist the continuation of national development by encouraging education , research and development , and introducing the latest technologies to its people . |
| 155 | Therefore , there is a need to provide constant and adequate education to heighten awareness in the people regarding this issue . |
| 156 | While the idea of improving education to ease the aging problem in the future is workable , there may still be a problem of individuals who will not be able to . |
| 157 | The lessons , skills and knowledge learnt through these experiences could be important and useful to the younger generations in dealing with the present and future challenges . |
| 158 | Therefore , the government should devote more capital to ensure that the education system remain relevant in today 's dynamic global economy . |
| 159 | This would be so as education encourages critical and creative thinking since young . |
| 160 | And to be specific , I think there are also many other important fields that need government aid , such as education or children 's upbringing , which will definitely have a considerable influence on the country 's future . |
| 161 | Most importantly , improving the education system helps in developing the country socially and economically , so diverting the money to this area is a more effective and efficient way to help the aged indirectly . |
| 162 | Education allows the younger generation to be empowered with knowledge and helps to cultivate talents which can lead the country and businesses . |
| 163 | More teachers can be trained to facilitate the learning environment of students . |
| 164 | The government has to maintain quality education and teach the right values when they are young . |
| 165 | Nonetheless , the younger generation forms the pillar of a country 's economy and more attention should be given to nurturing them . |
| 166 | Without a good education , one can not be as good at work . |
| 167 | Through education , children open their eyes to more opportunities and logical reasoning . |
| 168 | The fund used on the elderly could otherwise be spent on allowing the country to have better economic growth by building a better infrastructure and an education system . |
| 169 | With education , detail and proper planning now it will help to ease numerous problems that the country and family will face as the population ages . |
| 170 | Also , incentives should be provided to students who wish to proceed to a higher education level , specifically the tertiary level . |
| 171 | It important to make sure that education remains affordable in the country and this can be achieved through subsidies by the government . |
| 172 | When people are educated , they will be able to contribute to the workforce in the near future . |
| 173 | One of them is to upgrade the facilities and the quality of teaching . |
| 174 | Education is the key to sustain economic livelihood . |
| 175 | Funds are constantly pumped into the education system for the financing of students and also for constant improvements in the education system . |
| 176 | The other way is to have students receiving a quality education . |
| 177 | Increasing public spending on the education sector will generate significant external benefits for society , especially the aged . |
| 178 | Thanks to government allocations in education , healthcare , and infrastructure , the society and economy can grow . |
| 179 | This act of placing the younger generation 's interest before theirs and making sure that they got proper education increased the literacy rate of the country and contributed to the country 's development . |
| 180 | Another way in which money can be well spent on the country 's development would be to spend on societal needs such as education and general healthcare . |
| 181 | Due to the aging population , there is a shrinking workforce ; and so the government should spend more on education , so that it will increase the productivity of the workforce . |
| 182 | After all , not only the young but the old people will also benefit from the investment in education . |
| 183 | More resources can be diverted to education instead . |
| 184 | Indeed , more often than not , education can help one out of poverty . |
| 185 | Therefore funds should go into the upbringing of the people who are able to drive the country forward in the future . |
| 186 | Resources of the country should be diverted into this aspect to provide scholarships and bursaries for needy children who are keen to further their studies and allow them to be exposed to better working opportunities in the future . |
| 187 | Education is important as it shapes future leaders for the nation . |
| 188 | Education at the secondary and tertiary level will prepare students to be efficient when they enter the working society , by equipping them with the necessary knowledge and essential skills . |
| 189 | The nation has great responsibility to help in developing the children 's potential . |
| 190 | One of the major responsibilities of the government of any country is providing quality education to the nation 's children . |
| 191 | Areas like education and R&D help to fuel the economy . |
| 192 | However , the education system is important in a country 's development for future generations , hence the government can only further revise the baby bonus policy in order to encourage families to have more children . |
| 193 | Diverting money to Education and Architectural development will prove to be beneficial for the aged and the generations to come . |
| 194 | Education in a country is one area that can indirectly help in easing the aging population problem . |
| 195 | The fact remains that education helps individuals gain knowledge and insights into life , which is the basis of civilisation and is vital for a nation 's political stability in the long run . |
| 196 | It is certainly worthy of the public funding to build the best educational facilities and ensure that every child has the chance to receive education . |
| 197 | They share their experiences with the young and this can help to improve the economy of the country . |
| 198 | But the illiterate will not stay illiterate always ; if they put an effort to improve and are given a chance for good education , they can still develop into a group of productive Singaporeans . |
| 199 | If no money were diverted into education , the country will suffer economically as there will be insufficient " intelligent " resource to promote economic growth . |
| 200 | This can be done by improving on the economy , educating the young on the importance of taking care of the elderly and implementing laws . |
| 201 | Therefore , one way to counter this problem is by diverting the money to other fields the country 's development like education . |
| 202 | Also , Spending on education should be put on the top of the government 's priorities list . |
| 203 | Thus , public spending should be diverted to the education sector and to promoting research and development , which can improve the welfare of the elderly in both the long and short run . |
| 204 | There are many ways to invest in education . |
| 205 | Spending on education will give better returns to a country in near future because education is a major factor for the country 's economic growth , whereas spending on the aged is just the opposite . Spending on the aged is inversely proportional to economic growth . |
| 206 | Improving the education system and developing the right academic atmosphere are essential and urgent . |
| 207 | For example , more money should be spent on education than any other areas . |
| 208 | These people should spend more money on training to assist their future career . |
| 209 | First of all , education should take a higher priority than life of the elderly as investing in education is the inevitable preparation for the next generation . |
| 210 | Thus , being re- educated becomes a priority for them . |
| 211 | Hence education is comparatively important and thus requires a fair amount of public spending . |
| 212 | " It is clear that education is one of the key aspects for the progress of a nation . |
| 213 | The concerns that will be discussed if funds should be put into funding education and its facilities , and the growth of the country itself is more paramount with regards to the country 's development . |
| 214 | They have implemented another education system , education for allrounded development , which emphasis that developing students ' abilities is the most important thing . |
| 215 | Secondly , education and learning are important factors contributing to a country 's success . |
| 216 | The government should divert the money into education to equip the people with the right attitude and working skills , so as to ensure stable economic growth for the country . |
| 217 | First and foremost , the government ought to invest much time and energy in education . |
| 218 | Education is one thing that should be prioritized . |
| 219 | Parents in this modern society want their children to be equipped with numerous skills to prepare them for the future workforce . |
| 220 | It is time for governments to take measures to make improvement in education and laws . |
| 221 | The government helps the young by issuing bursaries and scholarships , as well as encourages the students to study hard and helps those who are poor but are eager to go to school . |
| 222 | Many countries have made different new policies to boost education development . |
| 223 | Moreover , policy makers and authorities should set good examples for the young . |
| 224 | Thus , investing money in education is relevant and important . |
| 225 | Education should focus on producing not only 'exam-smart ' students but also those who that can react flexibly with the changes and needs of the current society . |
| 226 | Education is the basis to the development of a country . |
| 227 | Money should be given to aid needy students who will then not be deprived of a chance to participate in Exchange programs administered by the institution . |
| 228 | Critics have commented that other areas of the country 's development such as education need the money to substantiate the advancement of these particular developments so as to bring them to greater heights .Therefore , limitations on public spending on the aged should be enforced . |
| 229 | In fact , investment should be on nurturing of our people as they are contributors to the economy . |
| 230 | By educating the younger generation , we would be able to reduce public spending on the old aged on a long-term basis . |
| 231 | A high standard of education is an important factor of maintaining a highly educated workforce in the country . |
| 232 | The government should spend more money on them for talks and teachings so that they are able to share their experiences with younger generation . |
| 233 | The government should also focus on developing this area to make the learning process more interactive and exciting . |
| 234 | Education and knowledge are important tools that help them to survive int the working world . |
| 235 | The government heavily subsidises the education fees in schools and tertiary institutions every year to prepare students for the future . |
| 236 | In the latter case , reallocating the funds for taking care of the " old " to the education sector can help in both easing the aging population and developing the country . |
| 237 | Education is an important area that requires public spending . |
| 238 | Moreover , most of the money they earned was spent on their children to make sure that they received proper education . |
| 239 | Hence , skills upgrade and training programs like those offered by Workforce Development Agency should reach out to more elderly and make it easier for them to upgrade themselves to reduce their barriers to entry into the workforce . |
| 240 | In spite of having a world-renowned education system , the leaders should strive to make improvements instead of just being contented with the current situation . |
| 241 | They can learn at a faster pace , thanks to the guidance provided . |
| 242 | With appropriate spending on key areas such as education , research and development and healthcare , the country could progress despite the additional demand of an aging population . |
| 243 | Instead , it achieves a balance where the government can set a limit and provide adequate funding for them while focusing on other more important aspects like education . |
| 244 | However , if the government does a good job in educating the young people and introducing policies to encourage young people to be more caring towards their aging parents , this would be a very effective strategy . |
| 245 | Financial aid will be needed to ensure that poor families , who can not afford to send their children to school , could do so . |
| 246 | Parents also try to give their children the best education they can afford . |
| 247 | Furthermore , the money we save could be diverted to develop education . |
| 248 | Therefore , by having a small family , a woman may be able to be more attentive to each and every child , in terms of education , values , and overall well being , so that the children will be able to survive in the competitive world ahead of them . |
| 249 | Moreover , education is surely the most important area which governments must focus on as well . |
| 250 | If public spending is allocated to areas such as housing , education and tourism , the new generation will be more financially secure than their parents . |
| 251 | To reduce this over- reliance , Singapore has been taking careful measures in her education system . For instance , Singapore implemented her first IT Masterplan for education ( MP1 ) in 1997 ( Keng , 2007 ) , ensuring that Singaporeans have sufficient IT skills for future endeavors . |
| 252 | In this way , younger generation will then work harder for the nation in future . |
| 253 | This is due to increasing expenses for the needs to hire teachers and provide subsidized education for the public . |
| 254 | This long term solution of diverting the country 's resources from spending on the aged to education lessens the squeeze on the already fully exploited economy . |
| 255 | Therefore , it is essential to provide skills upgrading programs for the elderly and by doing so it will reduce their barriers to enter the workforce and reduce the impact of aging on the economy . |
| 256 | This means that through investing in children 's higher education , the country is able to compensate for the decrease in public spending on the aged . |
| 257 | The answer is to invest more money in areas like Education , Retraining and Healthcare . |
| 258 | Besides , a country could also support programs that make this policy run more effectively , such as promoting children 's willingness to support their elderly parents and implementing means testing programs . |
| 259 | Without proper education , they will not have the ability to compete with other countries and this will hinder the country 's development especially in the economic sector . |
| 260 | One of the reasons to limit public spending on the aged is that there is a greater need to spend money on education than on the aged . |
| 261 | In order for a country 's expansion , policy makers are working on developments that can provide a valuable " public product " such as education and infrastructure . |
| 262 | What is more , a prosperous economy can also foster further technological invention , medical innovation as well as educational improvement , which all are considered to be important factors in alleviating the aging process . |
| 263 | Public funds are needed to build educational institutions and schools . |
| 264 | When majority of the funds are diverted into improving education facilities , the aged will not be able to save up enough money whilst actively working . |
| 265 | Education is also a very important development in a Global City . |
| 266 | Technological improvements will improve the educational level of people , the quality of health care , the living standards , etc... To some extent , these strategies also indirectly assist the elderly . |
| 267 | The Global Campaign for Education for example , has campaigned in many countries in order to instill awareness towards the importance of education . |
| 268 | Therefore instead of channeling public funds into subsidized health care , the money should be put to better use in education or other aspects of the nation 's development . |
| 269 | On the other hand , if the country invests in other specific areas like education , the burden of taking care of the elderly will literally shift from the government to the younger generation . |
| 270 | This is to ensure that school fees are affordable and every citizen is allowed to receive a proper education . |
| 271 | There are many fields that need money such as education and . In the long run the young generation should support the aged instead of the government . |
| 272 | The government should also ensure no one is deprived of a good education because of money issues . |
| 273 | Education may be one of the ways to minimize the percentage of the elderly relying on government funding . |
| 274 | Education also equips one with better knowledge and planning skills , like the importance of health and financial planning for their golden years ( Lim , 2009 ) . |
| 275 | The aged workers would benefit as well because governments could introduce educational campaigns that help subsidise skills upgrading for the elderly workers . |
| 276 | Furthermore , in the 2009 Key Budget Initiatives , the government is enhancing school education by " providing better facilities for an all-round education in every school , enhancing both the size and quality of the teaching force and bringing in allied educators into schools to collaborate with teachers in providing better attention for every child . |
| 277 | " . Hence , some of the government public spending should be diverted for education purposes to prepare the younger generations for their future lives . |
| 278 | These measures will benefit the younger citizens in times to come . |
| 279 | In addition , the government encourages active participation of the aged in the workforce by offering free training to these workers . |
| 280 | It ensures that the young generation is well educated , full of knowledge and able to think critically . |
| 281 | Education opens doors of brilliant career opportunities |
| 282 | However , there have to be a limit as to how much we spend on them so that the money can be diverted into areas like health , education and defense , which are much more important and crucial to the country 's development . |
| 283 | ) . He also says that " education is important because it equips us with all that is needed to make our dreams come true . |
| 284 | " Although the government has the responsibility to care for the aged , they should direct their focus to training and educating the future workforce and generation . |
| 285 | For example , funds are needed to build good infrastructure and facilities for academic purposes . |
| 286 | Apart from helping population to be re-skilled , SPUR also helps retrenched workers to learn new skills so that they can be reemployed and companies are able to send their personnel for training which helps to reduce retrenchments . |
| 287 | Education is fundamental for the nation as it builds the nation 's foundation . |
| 288 | On top of that , most importantly , they have contributed to the nation by imparting their knowledge and experience to the younger generation . |
| 289 | Thus , the opportunity cost to invest in the education is lower than to invest on the elderly . |
| 290 | And to ensure the elderly to- be are prepared , it is important to inculcate them with a healthy mindset through promoting education , retraining and community activities . |
| 291 | Purpose of this financial scheme is to assist parents in the payment of the development and education of their children . |
| 292 | This is because basic infrastructure is the basis for any country to develop essential facilities like transport , housing and education to help the poor . |
| 293 | Therefore , public spending is needed to bring the children out of the vicious circle . |
| 294 | In my opinion , the problems can be solved if the government thinks of changing the education system . |
| 295 | If the incentives worked , there will be more youths in the future . This will help to ease the financial burden of the elderly . |
| 296 | Money saved from reduced spending on the aged can then be invested in other areas for instance education . |
| 297 | The cost of raising children has also risen in the past years due to the need to enroll them in numerous programs . |
| 298 | Thus , public spending on the education sector will indirectly benefit the elderly . |
| 299 | Hence , it is again the government 's role to subsidize the education so that everybody at least can get the standard level of education . |
| 300 | In contrast to the earlier education sector which helps in easing the problem by eliminating the cause , an increase in spending in this sector helps by reducing the effects of the old aging population : the collapse of the economy . |
| 301 | Through research and development and having the correct policies , a country not only will take care of their aged , it will also improve its economy . |
| 302 | Besides the concerns surrounding environmental protection and education , public spending on the aged should be partly transferred to public infrastructure development projects such as public transportation , schools and hospitals because such developments are directly related to the improvement in the living standards of senior citizens . |
| 303 | This would be supported by current schools ' curriculum where children are given problem based learning activities where they have to work on their research and ideas . |
| 304 | The young are more productive and equipped with updated skills . |
| 305 | This also allows them to lead a better quality life and support themselves so as to reduce the dependency on the younger generation for a longer period of time . |
| 306 | The education system in every country plays a key role in moulding the future of the country . |
| 307 | They will also be able to impart life values and skills to the younger generation . |
| 308 | In this growing society , younger generations are getting more educated . |
| 309 | Education is deemed one of the most vital matters concerning the public and it is of remarkable worth to the economy ( Dobriansky,2007 ) . |
| 310 | Education has an irrefutably important part of a country 's development . |
| 311 | Other than that , some of public spending can be diverted to develop education . |
| 312 | Furthermore , it was recently announced that the government will be spending millions to encourage more people to upgrade or learn new skills by building training centres and providing training programmes ( Channel News Asia , 2009 ) . |
| 313 | On the other hand , the governments should pay more attention to the quality of teachers . |
| 314 | That is why a lot of countries are spending a large portion in education . |
| 315 | Majority of the public spending should be directed to areas that can assist in the country 's developments such as the improving of the education system and creating of more job opportunities , so substantially , lesser public spending on the aged should be set aside . |
| 316 | It may be a better decision to spend on the young as there are higher odds of return in this investment . |
| 317 | If a country does not develop well in the area of education , the economy of the country will definitely not grow well . |
| 318 | Furthermore , the money saved should be diverted into important areas relative to the country 's destiny , such as education and economy . |
| 319 | It would be more beneficial to invest in the nurturing of future generations than in the aged . |
| 320 | The most basic yet important area of the country 's development would be education . |
| 321 | Equipping of skills can be done with the support of the government by encouraging the elderly to take up courses at an affordable price . |
| 322 | Despite the large expenses in the various aspects for the aged , these implementations would also benefit the younger generations in due course . |
| 323 | Furthermore the young generation is well informed and is taking several initiatives to rectify the previously committed mistakes , thus causing the country to accelerate in a path of new economic revelations . |
| 324 | ( Ministry of Education , 2009 ) . Nevertheless , educating the workforce , including the aged , on the importance of planning for retirement and continuous skills upgrading are also essential . |
| 325 | The government can invest in additional amenities in schools , such as gymnasiums ; swimming pools ; and indoor sports halls , so as to provide a conducive environment for the students . |
| 326 | Another way to carry out this strategy is that the budget can be used to promote and export the country 's education . |
| 327 | In order to have more money for other areas of development , one of the ways is to reduce other sectors of public spending such as education , for example . |
| 328 | Firstly , greater productivity should be encouraged with the younger generation being cost-efficient and productive . |
| 329 | This is mainly because youth are more progressive towards economic development in comparison to the elderly . |
| 330 | In fact , this can indirectly ease the stress of an aging population through developing the research and development industry and providing skills training for workers . |
| 331 | Hence the government should also divert some of its resources to improving the lives of the aged for example by providing subsidies for having children which not only reduces the cost of having a child but also encourages people to have more children , thus increasing the replacement rate . |
| 332 | In this case , governments can help parents to save whilst bringing up their children , this provides sufficient support due to aid by government for educating children . |
| 333 | Indirectly , the government can spend less to help people in higher education but can still built an intellectual society . |
| 334 | First of all , public spending on the aged can be diverted to help those people who have lower income but have the potential of pursuing a higher education to get better qualification . |
| 335 | Secondly , it is important for the government to spend on education . |
| 336 | One should not forget that through the functions of education , the government can increase or influence the citizens ' thoughts and awareness on being socially and morally responsible to the population which include the aged as well . |
| 337 | As such public spending on other areas of the country 's development such as education would need to be cut to maintain a budget balance . |
| 338 | Children are the future and the hope of our society , for they provide us with the enthusiasm and vigor towards new technological breakthroughs and societal betterment . |
| 339 | It is essential to build on the development of the country 's future - the younger generation - since the aged rely on the young and the young rely on the younger when old . |
| 340 | The CPF Education Scheme allows people to use the ordinary account to pay for tertiary education in local institutions , and at the same time , encourages more people to further their education |
| 341 | These programs enrich a student 's soft skills , which is essential for their ability to lead the country in time to come . |
| 342 | They can upgrade their skills by taking up enrichment courses like computer classes . |
| 343 | This compromises spending that could be used , namely on education , health care and creating economic growth . |
| 344 | Children have their freedom to enjoy their lives but monitoring and supervising them is also essential to ensure their safety . |
| 345 | A country can secure these talents by setting aside funds for education , giving bursaries and scholarships to attract foreign students whom will in turn stay and work . |
| 346 | As a result , they can support themselves more effectively not only when they are young , but also during their old age |
| 347 | This idea can force the youth to try to work hard and achieve much in the younger ages . |
| 348 | One of the solutions to minimize the impact of labour shortage could be to re-employ the retired workers and allow them to guide the new workers on the job as well as share their working experience that will benefit the new workers . |
| 349 | In fact , public spending on higher education pays off , especially in times of economic crisis or downturn ( Aisha , 2009 ) |
| 350 | They have to work hard to provide the basic necessities of life , such as food , clothes , education etc . |
| 351 | This money can be diverted to other needier and more important programs , such as educational , environmental and other economic development related programs . |
| 352 | Although initially it requires extra effort and training , once separation habits are set up , it can be done at very low cost . |
| 353 | Public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas , such as education , which is far more important than the aging issue in today 's world . |
| 354 | One argument that suggests money should be diverted to the education area is that higher education would help to cut down the sizeable segment of the population who needs government aid during old age in the future . |
| 355 | Secondly , countries should also focus on providing financial aid for trainings and seminars to be conducted for the working population . |
| 356 | They could identify themselves in the new era better since they are capable of adapting themselves to an environment that is different from theirs with life-long learning . |
| 357 | It will also stimulate the young generation to create new products to ease the aging process . |
| 358 | Parents wanted their children to score well in order to advance to university and have a bright future . |
| 359 | ( Anonymous , 2009 ) . It is important for the government to spend in this area so that the country 's economy and social condition will improve . |
| 360 | But , if the children still fail to support their elderly parents after much education , legislation will be a must in solving this problem . |
| 361 | It is crucial to help the children to break out of the vicious circle as children are the future generation to run the country . |
| 362 | If a limit is not in place , the government might soon face difficulties in funding other key sectors of the country 's development such as education and defense . |
| 363 | Educated people will also be more inclined to be independent and make financial planning for themselves during their economically-active years . |
| 364 | This approach not only brings awareness to the people , but also educates the people on what will happen to the elderly when they are being neglected . |
| 365 | Therefore , funds should be diverted to assist children 's development . |
| 366 | However , I believe that instead of focusing so much on the aging issue , it is sometimes wiser for the government to divert the money to other areas of country 's development , which include education and military . |
| 367 | Retrieved September 15 , 2009 from http : //www.straitstimes.com/Breaking + News/Singapore/Story/STIStory_329588.html ] There should be sufficient funds set aside to provide updated facilities for schools , as well as to maintain the quality of the teaching force . |
| 368 | More spending on education . |
| 369 | When people less on the elderly , they are able to invest more in their children 's future education by saving for education fees of the education scheme . |
| 370 | MOE has been 'moving in recent years towards nurturing young Singaporeans who ask questions , and who are willing to think of new ways to solve new problems, ' ( Ministry of Education , n.d. ) in an attempt to inculcate the positive mindset of learning at a tender age . |
| 371 | The ground for this fact is that because of their hard work during their younger years , they are able to put aside for their future . |
| 372 | The government has to groom potential leaders and scholars to understand the importance of financial planning before they can lead and share . |
| 373 | Fewer opportunities , in the form of job security and stability arise from less money being diverted to education and development of the economy . |
| 374 | One may say that development in other areas may exclude some of the elderly from the benefits due to their low levels of education and access . |
| 375 | Instead of treating the elderly in society as a burden , the government should think of ways to harness their knowledge and experience so that they can contribute back more to society . |
| 376 | Another benefit is that valuable working experience can be retained and imparted to the inexperienced . |
| 377 | At this rate , sustaining our country 's silver generation can not just be the duty of the children , but as far as possible , a great work of cooperation , with the help of policies . |
| 378 | Hence , reduction in education expenditure will put the country 's progress at risk . |
| 379 | Spending on infrastructure and defense will enhance the country 's economic growth , the living standards of the people and the overall the image of a country . |
| 380 | Therefore , governments should reduce their spending on the elderly and more of the budget should be used on education and for boosting economic growth . |
| 381 | With policies such as those that encourage the aged to acquire new skills , the government could also provide aid by compensating the loss in |
| 382 | Hence , by preparing and nurturing the leaders of tomorrow from young , they will be able to lead the country to a whole new level . |
| 383 | A significant amount of money should be diverted to other areas such as education and research for the country 's development and a smaller amount for subsidies in medical and healthcare . |
| 384 | Therefore , more of the government 's investments should go to the younger citizens . |
| 385 | Due to this issue , we can save a lot of resources for our future . |
| 386 | In addition , free health talks help to educate the elderly , especially the uneducated ones and advise them to lead a healthy lifestyle . |
| 387 | " To some extent , I agree that we spend more money on education and environment since investing in the country 's development is also a way to invest for the elderly . |
| 388 | Another aspect that can help in easing the problem is the industrial development of a country . |
| 389 | ( ) This will in turn help to improve and safeguard safety in the country and indirectly help in the economical aspect . |
| 390 | It has evolved over the years , from textbook learning to the introduction of hands-on learning to equip students with skills such as creativity . |
| 391 | They possess valuable experience to impart to the younger workers and they can the younger workers that are more productive and innovative , but who lack experience . |
| 392 | Although there 's no doubt that health care of the elderly plays an important role in public spending , it should still be limited so that funds can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development such as education . |
| 393 | Not only are they able to benefit financially , they are also able to share their precious experiences with the younger generations . |
| 394 | Thus , the expenditure on education is also important instead of focusing on the aging population . |
| 395 | In effect , more productive children will be raised and there will be sufficient numbers of younger generations to replace those of the older generations as they retire . |
| 396 | For example , public spending should be spent on the aged under a better mechanism through more practical efforts like encouraging the aged to be productive if they are still capable of providing their knowledge and wisdom . |
| 397 | The Government should invest more in the current education of the youth instead of investing the budget in the elderly . |
| 398 | This step is quintessential as it makes sure that their efforts and time are not wasted at the wrong place . |
| 399 | This may seem impossible but it can be made possible if each elderly person begins imparting these values to his own children . |
| 400 | In this way , the younger generation will be able to gain more wisdom from them . |
| 401 | I feel that military and education should take priority over the needs of the elderly ; but measures should be put in place so that the elderly can take care of themselves . |
| 402 | Knowledge from past experiences will also help in ensuring a smoother design process . |
| 403 | This might in turn lead to a series of negative chain effects such as making education less affordable . |
| 404 | Thus education , which helps to sustain future economic growth , is an aspect where spending on the aged must be carefully limited in order to prevent any compromise . |
| 405 | It is also a common mindset that young people have a higher level of work productivity in contrast to the elderly people . |
| 406 | As people get more educated , they are able to shape the technology at their disposal to adapt it to themselves . |
| 407 | If the majority of our senior citizens are able to be independent and pro-active , it helps to ease the dependency on our younger working population . |
| 408 | Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said that " despite the recession , the government will upgrade both the 'hardware ' and 'software ' of the education system " |
| 409 | However , the present education system leads students to another way . |
| 410 | Public funds could be channeled into education , military and other vital sectors of the economy , instead of to the aged . |
| 411 | Economic development can stabilize the condition of the country , increase productivity and government income which could then be used for the elderly , Technological development can also bring people healthier bodies . |
| 412 | It is these experiences and mistakes that we learnt from and thus improved ourselves . |
| 413 | Topic : How an electronic dictionary is shaped by students ' needs and the specific factors that have shaped its innovation . |
| 414 | In this way , they will be more careful in doing their task and will as a result be able to avoid making mistakes . |
| 415 | Instead governments could reallocate budgets whereby more funds initially set aside for childcare amenities be transferred to fund the development of elderly friendly amenities since the former needs fewer resources due to the low birth rate in the population . |
| 416 | With this situation , other key sectors such as education and defense might be implicated when the targeted Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) to sustain the increased expense on the aged is not met , should a spending limit on the aged not be imposed . |
| 417 | In addition , they can even train those inexperienced young . |
| 418 | Creativity is developed by students ' exploration through their self-learning . |
| 419 | Besides , younger workers still have various work chances , especially , when companies do know about the creativity , activity and intelligence of younger workers . |
| 420 | Therefore , they would rather hire a worker with higher qualifications , who is more competent , and most importantly , younger . |
| 421 | Moreover , since there are more young people engaged in the workforce , the elderly in later life will as they will be supported by the younger generations . |
| 422 | Accidents happened every now and then , and through these accidents , people learnt and things were improved to prevent the same accidents from happening once again . |
| 423 | We will introduce not only new paradigms of instructions but also new approaches to deliver this up to date equipments . |
| 424 | Another bane of contention is that public spending on education can be reduced . |
| 425 | However , it is because of these past experiences that there can be improvements to the design of the Generation IV VHTR . |
| 426 | These decision making skills can also be imparted to the younger generation . |
| 427 | Therefore , the spending in other essential areas such as infrastructure , financial , and education will have to be cut down . |
| 428 | Hence , crime rates will be greatly reduced as the younger generation will be wise enough to do only the right things . |
| 429 | For example , if a country decides to increase spending on the aged , a smaller budget may be allocated for education , research and investment purposes . |
| 430 | Unlike in the past , younger generations nowadays are more work oriented . |
| 431 | More and more skill competitions are conducted , aiming to motivating the elderly to reacquire new knowledge , as well as reforming social attitudes towards the elderly . |
| 432 | Awaring of this , lots of countries have applied a plenty of effective policies to adapt to a new changing world . |
| 433 | By controlling the size of population , the one-child policy indirectly shifts the governmental funds from the young to the elderly , so that the government has more flexible budget to help the elderly . |
| 434 | The research has shown that before 30 is the best time to learn and work in our lives . The young citizens can work better than the elder ones . |
| 435 | Spending on the aged should be kept to a smaller proportion as compared to areas such as education . |
| 436 | However , it is only effective when the individual starts working at a younger age. . |
| 437 | Secondly , money can be diverted to the education sector . |
| 438 | Due to falling birthrates , I believe it is possible to reduce public spending on education . |
| 439 | Reduced spending on education can mean fewer educators and lowered standards of teaching , reduced spending on research can mean fewer incentives for researchers and for their research work and reduced spending on investments may mean less cooperation with international bodies . |
| 440 | We should invest more on the young and adults instead of the elderly , as it is more promising to do so . |
| 441 | In that case , they are even more productive than younger workers . |

| 0 | Thus , much emphasis is placed on the designing engineers to develop innovations to further improve the well-being of our society . |
|---|---|
| 1 | In response to energy shortage , engineers are designing more efficient products and systems . |
| 2 | To address this need , an engineering process has to be developed and this requires a methodology or a process of steps to help us arrive at the solution . |
| 3 | To further improve the usage of alternative energies requires more efforts by engineers . |
| 4 | It is also a moment for engineers to investigate the underlying problems in their design and then implement corresponding modification and improvement . |
| 5 | That requires engineers to find ways to maximize the efficiency of power generation . |
| 6 | In conclusion , the engineering design process aids engineers in developing newer technology to help meet the needs or solve the problem of the global population . |
| 7 | Since engineers are important in discovering new energy sources and the aim of their work is to meet people 's needs , they should give priority to the development of new energy . |
| 8 | However , realizing the importance of designer engineers in today 's society , Singapore government has implemented measures to encourage innovative engineering . |
| 9 | Thus , through the use of engineering design processes , they have come out with a better design of the product . |
| 10 | An engineer needs to define the problem , gather pertinent information , generate and analyse multiple solutions and finally , test and implement the solution . |
|---|---|
| 11 | The design process has been the core behind how engineers go about handling new and upcoming problems humanity will face . |
| 12 | In the steps to get pertinent information and to analyze and select a solution , engineers can make their product more environment-friendly . |
| 13 | During these stages of innovation , different problems are faced by engineers . Some of these problems are significant enough that may affect the progress \ development of the innovation |

| 58 | without creativity and innovation the tasks are never easy for engineers . engineers must design products which are both artistic and practical . |
| 59 | Consequently , a new engineering design process has to be carried out to rectify this problem . |
| 60 | On her way to be more modern , one of the key points is to improve engineering design ability . |
| 61 | Then , engineers will use creativity to generate ideas that solve the problem by starting with existing solutions then trying to figure out and improve the weakness in those solutions . |
| 62 | Engineering design is the process of an attempt to improve the current system by analysing the needs of users , researching , finding solutions and presenting the final product ( Wikipedia , n.d. , para 1 ) . |
| 63 | In conclusion , engineering design process for innovations plays a crucial role in our society . |
| 64 | To sum up , solving the current energy crisis is a very complicated and systematic issue and engineers should act as pioneers in solving it . |
| 65 | Hopefully , the engineering design processes can be further polished in a short term so as to return engineering designs with higher quality . |
| 66 | Since energy resource shortage is the root of so many problems , finding its solution is the priority for engineers . |
| 67 | This example clearly illustrates the importance of establishing the need accurately so that engineers would be able to work effectively towards solving the problem . |
| 68 | Therefore , in modern society , engineering has become more important ; the role of an engineer is to design a safe and efficient product or a system that minimizes the damages to the environment or brings benefits to the human kind . |
| 69 | Engineers are trying to generate multiple solutions to some problems . |
| 70 | A proper housing system has to be set up to deal with these housing issues and the best way to develop such a system would be using an engineering design process . |
| 71 | The government believes that this will improve the engineering design processes for innovation in the near future . |
| 72 | Engineers are playing an important role in finding and using renewable resources such as wind power and solar power to satisfy the increasing demand of resources . |
| 73 | These could assist the engineer to experience and discover the limitations and weaknesses of the design and improve on it . |
| 74 | Besides that , the innovations that engineers come up with needs to be safe for the public to use . |
| 75 | With the many possible solutions , what a smart engineer does is to figure out the best solution and introduce the best way of executing it , so that the need is fulfilled immediately and effectively . |
| 76 | The ability to work with such constraints will greatly influence the outcome of future engineering endeavours . |
| 77 | Engineers have been designing products or systems to improve our daily lives life . |
| 78 | Obviously , cultivating engineers ' innovative abilities is very important . |
| 79 | Besides research , development processes enable engineers to produce designs that will be tested on real ground . |
| 80 | In the further study , scientists and engineers would come up with the more solutions of the problems people concern in the safety , security and cost . |
| 81 | The problem has to be clearly defined so that researchers and engineers alike understand the problem and recognize the need for a new product or system . |
| 82 | In conclusion , in order to deal with the energy crisis and work out a solution that is applicable , we need to do well in every step in engineering design processes . |
| 83 | The problem has a significant impact on the testing and implementing solutions step in the design process , during which an engineer may encounter different problems and choices . |
| 84 | Another aspect of great engineers is their ability to optimize processes . |
| 85 | Once alternative solutions come out , engineers need to analyze and decide on the best suited solution to implement .Governments and organizations are also responsible in supporting the R&D process in order to gather information needed , generate multiple solutions , analyze solutions and test as well as implement solutions which are the necessary steps for the design process . |
| 86 | That could be carried out by engineers who hold the key to solve design problems . |
| 87 | Indeed , the utmost purpose for the existence of engineers is to improve living standards and to satisfy the higher requirements of human beings by creating or improving the products used in daily life . |
| 88 | This is because an engineering design involves a series of complicated steps such as drafting outline , analysis and problem-solving as well as product implementation and the final testing of the product before being shipped to the market . |
| 89 | This will reveal the weaknesses in the design ; hence the engineers can improve on it . |
| 90 | Engineers are trained to solve problems and design products to fulfill human needs . |
| 91 | This problem affects the solutions generating process in engineering design . |
| 92 | To make an efficient and effective solar heating system , engineers carefully define the problem and collect important information about this issue . Then they generate all the possible solutions . Finally they test the solutions and make changes to improve the solution . |
| 93 | The systematic evaluation approach applied in the engineering design process then facilitates engineers to generate a reliable judgement of the solutions . |
| 94 | After identifying the important factors , engineers proceed on their search for solutions . |
| 95 | With breakthroughs different domains in science , engineers should shoulder up the responsibility of making these breakthroughs available for people and therefore benefit humankind . |
| 96 | Therefore , it is important for engineers to think ahead , speculate the upcoming problems and expectations of the consumers , and provide practical solutions . |
| 97 | This directly affects the process of innovative engineering design especially in . |
| 98 | Engineering design processes are able to provide the world with effective solutions like better battery technology and control devices that will improve the air quality of the world . |
| 99 | The engineer must be mindful of the various factors and choose a solution which meets the criterion he deems necessary for his product . |
| 100 | Substantial knowledge of the product and its users will allow engineers to make an accurate evaluation which involves rating safety factors and value factors . |
| 101 | What engineers will do next is test the system and make possible improvements . |
| 102 | From here , we can see that the Engineering design processes must be constantly updated , for otherwise more problems may occur that may significantly hamper engineering design process for innovations . |
| 103 | Therefore , cleaner sources of energy generation have to be discovered and engineering design processes can do just that . |
| 104 | Engineering design and modern technology assists these countries by first identifying the specific problem and in the process of doing so , possible solutions will be generated . |
| 105 | Therefore , a systematic thinking is recommended , where engineers constantly analyze their own approach and decisions so as to take corrective action to improve the safety of the whole system . |
| 106 | Hence , many health care products are created and modelled by engineers to meet this need . |
| 107 | Currently , as engineers , we should work on an advanced model of the catalytic converter , with a higher efficiency and better compatibility with different models of engines which may emit harmful gases . |
| 108 | Through the engineering design process , we can see how engineers satisfy that need . |
| 109 | Firstly , engineers must recognize the need and define the designing problems such as how far the driving range of a fully charged electric vehicle is and etcetera by gathering enough information , running experiments and performing computation . |
| 110 | For engineers to discover f energy , firstly , it is essential to have a clear definition and criteria of the problem and to gather enough relevant information . |
| 111 | They are the results of engineer designs to meet our needs . |
| 112 | So , in order to address this situation , engineers should think about ways that can make the design process meet the needs of the market . |
| 113 | Engineering design , also known as innovations , are created by people to make the world a better place to live in . |
| 114 | What needs to be done is to organize some training sessions which can make the engineers more skillful , or some meetings that cover the common mistakes in engineering processing which embed the awareness of safety in people 's mind. |
| 115 | Engineers will have to take into consideration future needs while being creative and also without jeopardizing the functionality and the usability of the product . |
| 116 | This is because the development of engineering design could bring many advantages to a country 's economy and society . |
| 117 | Although the description of the designing process is simple and clear , the implementation of engineering design is rather complicated and requires several crucial qualities . |
| 118 | In conclusion , the engineering design process would be able to help us develop an environmentally friendly product to help preserve the environment . |
| 119 | Later on , engineers will combine their new ideas and tools into the existing solutions and finally unique solutions will be formed . |
| 120 | The centralized research procedure gives engineers more careful thoughts in the development of a conventional innovation . |
| 121 | Being a project that is closely related to social economy and other critical issues , establishing an efficient energy transportation system urges engineers to identify the overall effectiveness of a certain solution based on the assessment in different fields . |
| 122 | However , with efforts to reform the education , I optimistically believe that we can overcome these obstacles to be competitive engineers in the global market . |
| 123 | But the truth is that engineering design is the decision-making process , in which the basic sciences , mathematics , and engineering sciences are applied to converge resources optimally to meet a stated objective . |
| 124 | Lastly , , engineering design processes can help to reduce energy waste . |
| 125 | Besides , engineers need to consider the electric car 's safety , cost and effects on the environment so that this engineering design meets the need . |
| 126 | First of all , engineering processes provide the foundation for research to get a new state-of-the-art design . |
| 127 | Only if the key players , engineers , are concerned and given due attention can the world of engineering run in the right direction . |
| 128 | If all the engineers are trying to design the technology with higher energy efficiency then they probably will gather more information , generate more efficient solutions and select the solution which is more efficient . |
| 129 | This is made possible due to the innovations engineers have produced to improve the lives of mankind . |
| 130 | Next I will illustrate more in detail how engineering design processes can meet that need by using one of a current human need that should be given priority - Eco Car . |
| 131 | Lastly , engineers will put their solution to test and ensure that the solution is able to solve the problem . |

| 134 | The following is an example of using engineering design process as an approach to solve problems . |
| 135 | Thus , to enhance safety , scientists and engineers are obligated to investigate the incidents and find out the causes . |
| 136 | Carrying out research studies on related issues or consultation of expertise would help the engineers to understand and envisage the possible accidents that may occur due to the surrounding environment ( Association of Independent Consultants , Inc , n.d. ) . |
| 137 | A good engineer will have to contemplate on various solutions and from various angles . |
| 138 | The focus of this essay is ; however , on the ways the engineering design processes help to fulfil a particular need . |
| 139 | If engineers are capable of introducing environmentally friendly energies at reasonable cost and sufficient quality , we can expect a future balance between energy consumption and energy supply . |
| 140 | Such kinds of conflict requires engineers to develop new products to meet all needs . |
| 141 | Moreover , to give energy efficiency priority will enrich the engineering design process resulting from . |
| 142 | Other than that , engineers will also need to go through the process of " analysing and selecting a solution " to make sure that the new product is fairly safe before releasing it into the market and it will not cause any health problem to the user . |

| 266 | Although it is difficult to have a perfect solution , engineers are still trying hard to meet our needs to save the environment . |
| 267 | Engineers need to test the solution before they start to use it . |
| 268 | There are many different medical research areas which engineers could lay their hand on and design products according to stipulated requirements . |
| 269 | Hence , the first stage of the engineering design process has to be thought out carefully . |
| 270 | In this process , engineers might discover design flaws and make the necessary changes to the design . |
| 271 | Co-operation among engineers will make an innovation in the end when the abstract idea is turned into physical equipment . |
| 272 | The challenges faced are never ending for an engineer in their attempts to come out with state-of-the-art medical devices to be used currently and also in the future . |
| 273 | Faced with this tough problem , the engineer tried to find a solution to balance the gravity . |
| 274 | Engineering design is an crucial part of technology . |
| 275 | In the last few years , engineers have indeed innovatively managed and minimized water deficit in many countries by conveying solution ideas into engineering designed products and systems . |
| 276 | As of such , engineers have to resort to new means and ideas when they design a system . |
| 277 | " Overwhelmed by the demand for energy , increasing energy efficiency should be viewed as the priority or desired objective of inventions or engineering design . |
| 278 | Embedding High Energy Efficiency into Engineering Design Products |
| 279 | Engineers play a huge role in assisting the government to achieve the aim of creating a better and safer environment for the elderly to live in . |
| 280 | Although it seems very optimistic that many potential alternative energy resources can be found , there are , in fact , other economic and social constraints faced by engineers . |
| 281 | It is true that sometimes technology innovation may be affected by some factors , but hopes are that determined engineers such as Mizogushi will eventually come up with inventions that can improve our quality of life . |
| 282 | It can be used as a reminder to engineers if there are any areas neglected during the process , allowing better communication to take place within the team and reducing the possibility of problems arising from miscommunication or individual actions . |
| 283 | All operation knowledge and training should be properly imparted by the engineers to the operators so as to guarantee system operation efficiency and safety . |
| 284 | After a problem has been defined , which is the first step of engineering design , engineers need to gather pertinent information about the problem . |
| 285 | Last of all , engineers have to test and implement the solution which was selected in the previous step . |
| 286 | To conclude , it is very clear that engineering design process will be a useful method in solving the current traffic problem . |
| 287 | During the brainstorming stage , engineers should look at the product from various angles ; the possibilities of doing harm to the environment while creating and testing the product product ; the ways to dispose of any toxic or radioactive wastes , and the possibility of exploitation |
| 288 | This step announces to engineers that the Earth is in grave danger , thus giving them more motivation to think of a solution . |
| 289 | Designing engineers to change the world . |
| 290 | So , it is high time to carry out this grand engineering project . |
| 291 | Engineering design plays a significant role in the use of solar energy , especially in solar heating . |
| 292 | Hence the supporters argue that the improvement in regulations and equipment and an emergency plan could have prevented this disaster . |
| 293 | The workers , who were in charge of the building of engineering segments , would have been aware of the uses of their product and more careful when making important parts of machines . |
| 294 | The quote can be used to express the significance of the engineering design processes to generate innovations in making a useful product for society and industry . |
| 295 | The engineering design process can be defined as a process by fellow engineers in the aid of developing either an entirely new system or improvising on the current to cater to . |
| 296 | The act of gathering information pertaining to the problem enables the engineer to look into possible past solutions to examine their effectiveness in dealing with the situation . |
| 297 | As a result , engineers will be forced to come up with the modification of the products in a short period of time . |
| 298 | Lastly , engineers must ensure that the product is safe to use or it will end up not only spoiling the reputation of the company but even injuring or killing someone . |
| 299 | In a sentence , when dealing with energy crisis , doing analysis and selecting the best solution are of great importance . |
| 300 | All the solutions will be thoroughly analysed by engineers before coming to a conclusion . |
| 301 | Engineers will have to design technologies which keep carbon dioxide emission to the minimum . |
| 302 | With the efforts of countless scientists and engineers , these challenges are expected to be solved in a few years . |
| 303 | The establishment of basic infrastructure in developing countries through engineering design will give the poor an avenue to successfully escape from the vicious cycle of poverty . |
| 304 | To solve this problem , there are two ways in which engineers can contribute . |
| 305 | For these two processes , an engineer needs to be able to think out of the box . |
| 306 | Therefore , developing innovation and creativity in young manpower is also the main factor which affects the design process of engineering . |
| 307 | Solutions ranging from micro everyday problems like constructing better roads to ease traffic to major predicaments like global warming and environment conservation can emerge with greater education for the future generations . |
| 308 | In design process , engineers have to keep records of calculations and methods used and foresee other ways people could use the product . |
| 309 | Consequently , these problems also impact the stages of engineering design , such as generate solutions , product safety and liability , technical and economic analysis . |
| 310 | ( Creative Technology , 2005 ) . It can be seen that because of time constraint , the research and development engineers from Creative Technology had to sacrifice most of their time just to focus on the engineering design processes for their new product , ZEN , so that it can be completed as soon as possible . |
| 311 | Engineering Process Design brings the reader across different aspects of engineering design , such as the marketability of the product and the testing of products . |
| 312 | One can see that engineers play the crucial role of delivering professional health service needed for a patient . |
| 313 | The first step in the engineering design process is to identify the problems that our product will face . |
| 314 | After that , engineers should start gathering pertinent information to reveal facts about the problem . |
| 315 | Time is running out and to protect the sustainability of life on Earth , necessary actions have to be taken immediately , and if not , as soon as possible , and the help of engineering design processes should not be left out . |
| 316 | " Nowadays , the ability of engineering designing not only determines one 's own future but also a nation 's power , wealth , and influence . |
| 317 | Engineering professionals and scientists have definitely contributed significantly to the country 's advancement . |
| 318 | Many engineers are turning to ocean motion , geothermal power and other areas to find a good replacement . |
| 319 | Engineers deserve more respect due to their outstanding contributions to the design and construction of the world . |
| 320 | Thus , we can observe how modifying available engineering processes can satisfy the need . |
| 321 | To drive home the point , the engineering design processes will definitely meet that need if engineers persevere stoically whenever they meet failures during the process . |
| 322 | Furthermore , there could also be some encouraging activities which help to build the engineers ' loyalty towards their companies and help them to realize their importance in the companies . |
| 323 | How can the engineering design make it widely used by innovating ? |
| 324 | To develop a new technology needs advanced equipment , instruments , venues and special materials . |
| 325 | Knowledge is very important in engineering design processes . |
| 326 | Moreover , different teams of engineers may have different points of approach regarding safety issues . |
| 327 | Engineering a Sustainable Future . |
| 328 | We engineers must always keep ourselves upgraded and think for the customers all the time so that we can make upgrades and modifications to meet their needs . |
| 329 | However , the efficiency of performance must be proven from more different kinds of researches and tests . |
| 330 | The key factors to prevent the train accident from happening are safety precaution , the proper actions taken during the accident and the use of high technology . |
| 331 | Engineering design is a particular kind of skill that requires an engineer 's knowledge and experience . |
| 332 | ) Though there 's still a long way to go before the accomplishment of VHTR , scientists and engineers will try their best to realize this great plan . |
| 333 | Engineers must be highly motivated and passionate to achieve results . |
| 334 | In conclusion , the threat of global warming has come . We engineers need to face it bravely and design products against the climate change . |
| 335 | Engineers should not be afraid to try new experiences or ideas . |
| 336 | Nevertheless , the process of learning through failures have significant importance in the engineering design process . |
| 337 | It is that engineers are those who are playing a crucial role in the society while the world is expanding unremittingly . |
| 338 | In this step , engineers will also look at other factors like economic and social factors to filter the solutions . |
| 339 | Unless we strive to break our existing conservative mindsets- to be inquisitive in mind and daring in heart as our government calls for ; then can we bring to life the true knowledge of engineering . |
| 340 | The ability to communicate and sell an idea is an critical skill in engineering design . |
| 341 | Engineers have to analyze every possible problem that may occur like water seepage , internal condensation , underground virus and bad acoustics when building more underground levels . |
| 342 | Before setting out for possible solutions for our energy problem , rigorously defining the problem itself is indeed necessary so that we can make sure that we are always in the right direction and know what properties the right solutions should possess . |
| 343 | Perhaps in future , there will be Singaporeans who can create engineering wonders to revolutionize the world . |
| 344 | High durability , battery life the ability ability to function at low temperatures must be considered during the design phase . |
| 345 | At this stage , engineers might have multiple solutions . |
| 346 | Such an approach enables engineers to think out of the box and challenge the old conventions , and subsequently forge innovative breakthroughs in fields such as , transportation systems and construction , that have hardly experienced any remarkable advancement in decades decades . |
| 347 | Therefore , the study of HCI would better enable the engineers to analyse information they gather and would hence to be able to come up with innovative designs which look into the safety of the design . |
| 348 | Then , engineers have to list all the solutions and select the ones that satisfy the criteria . |
| 349 | This will therefore affect them when they enter the working society as professional engineers . |
| 350 | First , we will look at how the problem should be defined in the engineering process . |
| 351 | The engineering design process could be used on the invention of a new imaging technology . |
| 352 | However , scientists and engineers worldwide have come together and discussed on the solutions to the problems . |
| 353 | Engineers have to develop solutions that fit the bill , adhering to the requirements of the water shortage . |
| 354 | Since then people began to realize that sometimes the engineering problem was related to equipment design rather than the people who operate or other mechanical reasons . |
| 355 | Innovators , who normally work with a Research and Development department , have to recognize the needs from the public or through research , and are required required to spend countless days and nights to understand the problems , to produce solutions to the problems , to convert the solutions into practical products and to commercialize them . |
| 356 | The behavior of operators should be anticipated and thus engineers could have reduced the complexity of the task by providing short and efficient procedure guidelines . |
| 357 | Although there are occasional lucky winners , engineers should still put in every endeavour in all research processes . |
| 358 | In addition , engineers can design a device that can save water . |
| 359 | Engineering design processes have made a great contribution to the world . |
| 360 | Through examples of these two products , we could see that both of them have made use of engineering design processes to meet the need . |
| 361 | Both of the two methods require demanding jobs and their researchers must overcome the impacts of unpredictable market during the process . |
| 362 | In my opinion , engineeengineers should focus on upgrading the buildings . |
| 363 | The younger engineers should be more daring and dare to venture into the innovative world to discover new ideas . |
| 364 | Companies hire engineers to design a certain product and they expect them to consider every detail related to the design . |
| 365 | He then further commented that in order to be awarded the ZEN Patent , it had taken a major investment of time and effort by a group of its research and development engineers |
| 366 | By using the engineering design process , the first step is to define the problem . |
| 367 | However an engineer can be successful as long as he is highly motivated , passionate and diligent . |
| 368 | Engineers need to generate multiple solutions based on different conditions instead of merely learning from other countries ' research and findings . |
| 369 | Therefore , we must stress the importance of finding suitable materials that are stress-resistant and anti-corrosive and develop a reliable auxiliary feed water system . |
| 370 | We should really be grateful to engineers who work so dedicatedly to satisfy our needs . |
| 371 | The second difference between the two environments is the working environment presented to the engineers and researchers . |
| 372 | Engineering design progresses are so important that they determine the rise and decline of companies and even nations . |
| 373 | Meanwhile , many engineers are looking for methods to cut the cost of nuclear reactors . |
| 374 | As we need equipment to solve problems . |
| 375 | From the feedback they received from customers , the company said that passengers could hear loud vibrations and dinnerware and glasses were moving across the table when the train was moving at cruising speed ( ) .Thus , the engineers were tasked to come up with a new design to solve problem . |
| 376 | Engineering creation and innovation can not go without talents . |
| 377 | Engineers need to be sensitive towards this issue and thus , ensure that the impact of their ideas are minimal towards mother nature . |
| 378 | However , the threat of nuclear accidents still persist and it is up to our own engineers to further resolve this threat . |
| 379 | Rather , developing high technology and taking proper safety precaution when an accident happens are more important . |
| 380 | After which , engineers would then start developing their products and subsequently proceed to commercialize it . |
| 381 | Much of the research engineering design carried out in modern countries been done successfully . |
| 382 | Given such a life and death situation , engineers have responded and there have been many great inventions , of which the implanted pacemaker might be one of the most significant engineering products in preventing heart diseases . |
| 383 | Through our engineering processes , we can ensure that we can provide tools and devices for the elderly . |
| 384 | All these will seriously affect the functionality analysis stage of the design process , as more time and consideration will have to be channeled into this stage . |
| 385 | All these problems are waiting for engineers to solve . |
| 386 | The development of a problem statement gives the engineer a chance to look into the problem . |
| 387 | Moreover , additional safety features such as how to minimize damage and protect lives if an accident occurs will also be developed further ( Lee , 2005 ) . |
| 388 | One such engineering design processes is gathering pertinent information . |
| 389 | An engineer would firstly need to define the problem . |
| 390 | In this step , engineers analyze the existing solutions and pick out the pros and cons . |
| 391 | To enhance the capacity of the battery , keeping trying new materials is important . |
| 392 | Refrigerators with a better mechanism as well as working capacity are demanded by the market . |
| 393 | In addition , the company will also expect the engineer to show some tangible results for them to continue funding the project . |
| 394 | The conventional innovation process requires requires engineers engineers to first identify a human need before the research officially begins . |
| 395 | An ageing population creates a new dilemma to engineers working on their designs , because they have to rebuild or edit all their past creations so as to be 'elderly-friendly ' , a phenomenon unheard of during the early days of nation building . |
| 396 | Engineers must also be willing to take risks and make mistakes , and not to be afraid of being criticized for their ideas . |
| 397 | Global Warming has been a persistent problem that engineers should step in and help . |
| 398 | Brainstorming for solutions comes next and the engineer lists out all the possible solutions for self-critique later . |
| 399 | Even with strong government support in nurturing designer engineers , the problems are still very much prevalent . |
| 400 | Although they are essential for all fields , engineering products and systems in healthcare and medical fields should be given the highest priority since health is the most important thing for all human beings . |
| 401 | In fact , engineers are taught to consider engineering design during their tertiary education . |
| 402 | Therefore , Creative Technology has to work against time to complete its engineering design processes for innovations so that it can launch its new products earlier than the other competitors and hence , earn the rights to claim that the innovations belong to it . |
| 403 | It is a decision-making process , in which the basic sciences , ( mathematics , give other examples ) } [ HYPERLINK : http : //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics ] , and engineering sciences are applied to convert resources optimally to meet a stated objective . |
| 404 | From this example , we can see that we engineers always think from the customer 's point of view and try our best to fulfill their needs . |
| 405 | On top of that , engineers can also obtain a variety of similar products and analyze them together . |
| 406 | If we can not improve the safety awareness among the crew , there is no point in merely solving the technical problem . |
| 407 | The designing process requires a large amount of raw materials for repeated fabrications of each part with different materials in order to obtain the most suitable material to optimize the function of the product of innovation . |
| 408 | The never ending need for safety to humans is an obligation for engineers of tomorrow to fulfill . |
| 409 | Engineering systems play important roles in all fields , for example , entertainment , healthcare as well as education . |
| 410 | Engineering processes not only rely on theories , but a lot on the engineer 's experience . |
| 411 | After careful design and a hard process of trial and error , the first electric fan was created . |
| 412 | That is why engineers need to think beyond their job scope . |
| 413 | We have to say it is really a commendable achievement among all the engineering designs . |
| 414 | If that is the case , what the engineer would do is to analyze the problem at hand and point out exactly which part of the solution needs to be modified . |
| 415 | In short , man will always find ways to solve our daily problems through engineering . |
| 416 | However , there are many other causes which might lead to an engineering accident . |
| 417 | Human scientists are able to analyze each step of the process and remind engineers of the important factors that they neglect . |
| 418 | Therefore , it would be more appropriate now if the engineer design process moves toward human health , in terms of biomedical invention such as artificial heart devices . |
| 419 | It is the engineers who have done the greatest job and made the biggest contribution to human beings . |
| 420 | Fortunately , the appearance of a kind of engineering design product helps huge numbers of patients who suffer a lot from heart attack . |
| 421 | There are various fields in which engineering plays an important role in our daily lives , such as entertainment , healthcare , transportation , real estate , and so on . |
| 422 | In the contemporary world , preventing heart diseases is inarguably one of the most pressing needs of mankind , and is rated as the top priority for engineering design and innovation . |
| 423 | This invention is certainly a masterpiece of engineering design due to its contribution in the enhancement of health through maintaining a functional heart . |
| 424 | The government guaranteed a lot of labour , materials and funds for the industry and the engineers and workers showed much initiative and creativity in work . |
| 425 | Long time ago , the engineers ' products as well as their achievements played a vital role in human life . |
| 426 | Engineers assist medical professionals such as doctors by designing medical devices such as the pace maker , defibrillator and ventilator which are often used in life threatening situations . |
| 427 | Although the whole process of making the car is very tough , the engineers were supported by companies , the government and society all the way . |
| 428 | These schemes will equip the aging community with sufficient technological/technical knowledge to remain productive and efficient in the labor force despite their disadvantages . |
| 429 | Most of the time , the designing processes may require sophisticated equipments and materials which may not be easily available within the country . |
| 430 | Not only do engineers have to communicate within their team , but also with representatives from various other levels . |
| 431 | This is because , technology provides the automation and machines to increase productivity solving the problem of a shrinking workforce . |
| 432 | Without the knowledge of the characteristics of different materials , one will not be able to choose the best material , which must be strong yet light in weight , to be used . |
| 433 | To meet the different needs of the market , many kinds of materials are needed . |
| 434 | Hope is the most significant contribution which engineers have contributed to the world . |
| 435 | A second major challenge is to find suitable building materials . |
| 436 | Overall , the invention of the heart pacemaker makes a tremendous contribution to the patients who suffer from heart attack . |

| 102 | Hence , aging has becoming a popular issue that everyone is concerned about today . |
| 103 | The aging population will definitely cause a great impact on the society . |
| 104 | This leads to the issue of the aging population . |
| 105 | In modern societies , the aging population is increasing . |
| 106 | As developed countries globalize and industrialize , the aging population is one of the most prominent problems faced by them . |
| 107 | Aging population is now a serious issue in most developed countries , where the number of young people is overwhelmed by the number of elderly ones . |
| 108 | Hence , governments and policy- makers face great challenges towards the ageing population . |
| 109 | In the coming years , as people live longer with each passing generation , our ageing population will climb steadily . |
| 110 | Nowadays , more and more people have to concern themselves with these questions as the fast aging population is becoming a serious problem which many countries are confronted with . |
| 111 | An aging population has been an issue in recent years as the increment in the social needs of the elderly and public spending , as well as the burden on the younger generations have governments probing into the issue . |
| 112 | Due to this process , countries with aging population are facing problems like economic growth and inadequate protection for the elderly . |
| 113 | In developed countries , problems of aging populations are surfacing and at the same time worsening . |
| 114 | Without a doubt , this will leave a heavy burden on the growth of the economy with the rapidly growing aging population . |
| 115 | The growing number of older people has caused the attention of many people and countries , and it has caused many problems to the society . |
| 116 | Ageing population is a pervasive phenomenon affecting countries worldwide . |
| 117 | In the recent years , global aging issues are of significant concern . |
| 118 | Population ageing is experienced in most industrialized countries , and it has certainly affected these countries ' productivity as it brings along problems such as rising social and welfare costs . |
| 119 | As the population ages , social problems increase . |
| 120 | The aging population is a global phenomenon that affects everyone . |
| 121 | Most developed countries are now confronted with more rapid aging in their population than the past . |
| 122 | One crucial problem is the increase in government expenditure for the aging population which in turn strains the future working population . |
| 123 | However , there are many emerging concerns about the ageing society in many developed countries . |
| 124 | Aging populations are becoming a very serious and significant problem especially in developed country where the educated and professional continue . |
| 125 | Tremendous demographic changes in aging will create many unprecedented problems . |
| 126 | Currently in many countries , the growing aging population has put a lot of pressure on the social services . |
| 127 | An ageing population will still be a problem in the future . |
| 128 | An ageing population can bring about many serious problems to a developed country . |
| 129 | Nowadays , many countries have to face different problems about the aging population . |
| 130 | Obviously , aging population refers to one of the most difficult challenges that policy makers worldwide are facing currently - how to fund the elderly in the society . |
| 131 | Many problems usually start to arise when one reaches old age . |
| 132 | When life expectancy increases , the the aging population also increases as people live longer . |
| 133 | In many countries , the proportion of older people is steadily increasing . |
| 134 | Although there seem to be an urgent need to spend more on the aged due to the aging population , other aspects in the country should not be neglected too . |
| 135 | However , the world must address yet another dire issue : an ageing population . |
| 136 | Demographic changes such as a growing aging population will have an unprecedented problem in developed nations . |
| 137 | As the life cycle of human beings is , human life expectancy is heavily dependent on the rate of aging . |
| 138 | As we know , people are living longer today than they used to , and this is resulting in a much larger elderly population than before . |
| 139 | An aging population is a common situation in many developed countries . |
| 140 | Aging problems affect both developed and developing countries in every part of the world and change the social and economic nature and present difficult challenges that public spending on the aged is increasing . |
| 141 | Since people have longer life expectancy , the number of elderly people increases . |
| 142 | An aging population is a problem affecting many global countries . |
| 143 | As the proportion of elderly persons in the world continues to increase , there is a need for the government to intervene as there will be many elderly who can not support themselves . |
| 144 | The ramifications of ageing population have always been a challenge to many developed countries . |
| 145 | Henceforth , the problems associated with an aging society is one such situation which can not be dismissed lightly as having a definite solution , as often there are severe repercussions that occur with it . |
| 146 | It is known that the world is facing the problem of an ageing population . |
| 147 | It is a necessity to raise awareness concerning the issue of aging population . |
| 148 | The issues of age challenge the whole of society and put it to the test , |
| 149 | Demographic changes due to growing aging population will have serious consequences on health issues . |
| 150 | In conclusion , the aging process is complicated and multifarious , and it affects every one of us . |
| 151 | An aging population is an unavoidable issue today that needs to be addressed urgently . |
| 152 | The aging population can be viewed as part of the country 's development and should not be taken lightly . |
| 153 | The aging problem is an important issue that governments are worrying about . |
| 154 | Fast aging population has taken the spotlight for world crisis and many governments are increasing their spending on this group as the aging population keeps increasing . |
| 155 | The increase in life expectancy would indicate a growing pool of aged workers . |
| 156 | In recent years , governments have been faced with the demographic reality of an aging population . |
| 157 | The aging population is an inevitable trend along with social and economical developments . |
| 158 | These statistics have proven that population aging is enduring and this means that tackling the challenges that come along with it is a long term process for the government and government spending on the aged will continue to increase . |
| 159 | Judging from the statistics , the elderly will form a relatively big portion of the country 's population structure in the near future . |
| 160 | Aging issue has been a very serious problem that most of the countries , especially developed countries , are now facing . |
| 161 | Our world population is facing an aging problem . |
| 162 | However , ageing issues are long term problems . |
| 163 | With this increasing amount of the elderly , there are going to be consequences in areas such as the economical growth , the amount of national budget that we are spending and healthcare issues . |
| 164 | Global aging has become a worldwide issue that many developing and developed countries are facing , or probably will face in the future . |
| 165 | The issue of an aging population will pose a threat to her future economic development . |
| 166 | The world 's population is continually growing , not just in term of size but also in the sense that it is growing older . |
| 167 | The average life expectancy has also increased , meaning that the elderly population will form a majority of the population . |
| 168 | Aging population could be a burden , but they are still a part of the country . |
| 169 | This is due to developed countries having an aging population coupled with a higher cost of living . |
| 170 | The global aging issue has aroused public attention around the world . |
| 171 | Changes in demographic trends have led to the rapid increase in the number of seniors . |
| 172 | The issues concerning an aging population are far-reaching and there will be detrimental effects if these issues are simply ignored . |
| 173 | An aging population has been talked about much in recent years . |
| 174 | In conclusion , the fact that people now live longer poses many challenges to a country . |
| 175 | Firstly , the proportion of the elderly is increasing rapidly , especially in the developed countries . |
| 176 | Everyone will eventually grow old and experience the effects of the aging process . |
| 177 | It has been shown that the world is facing the aging problem . |
| 178 | Recently , the aging population has caused lots of social and economic problems , which has drawn the attention of more and more governments . |
| 179 | Since the aging population is one big issue now , necessary spending on the aged can not be stingily kept away . |
| 180 | As the problem of the aging population worsens , governments have to spend increasing amount of money to counter the problem and at the expense of other areas of the country 's development . |
| 181 | Aging is , no doubt , one of the most pressing issues that many developed countries are facing today . |
| 182 | Ageing is an inevitable part of life and it is often not easy at all to deal with the difficulties that old age brings . |
| 183 | " ( ) As the productivity of the world has increased greatly compared to decades ago , an ageing society has come to being . |
| 184 | The problems faced by the aged will be a global phenomenon . |
| 185 | Most developed nations have their population rapidly aging . |
| 186 | Although aging issues are prevalent in both developed and developing countries , these issues are more pressing in developed countries . |
| 187 | This creates further problems such as a less efficient economy and a rise in public expenditure to meet the increasing needs of the elderly . |
| 188 | Demographic changes due to the rapid aging population will post serious consequences on health issues as well as the economy of the country . |
| 189 | In this point , there might be arguments that the new technique , if available , will result in a larger number of old people , increasing pressure to an already aged and crowded population . |
| 190 | The report shows that the life expectancy of people is increasing with time , which implies that the aging process is becoming than before . |
| 191 | There is no dispute that the average age is climbing up continuously as it is impossible to prevent people from getting old . Increased life expectancy is the most outstanding but only one of the features of aging population . |
| 192 | Clearly , as many counties are experiencing aging population problems , the importance of solving this problem in the long term period is rather crucial . |
| 193 | As a population gets older there are social , political and economical impact on everyone . |
| 194 | Issues such as high elderly dependency ratio , shrinking workforce and increasing healthcare problems , which resulted from an aging population , are apparent in many countries . |
| 195 | One of the challenges that needs to be addressed will be the aging population on the economy . |
| 196 | However , this issue of a graying population has become a world phenomenon now . |
| 197 | The effect of this aging issue is often being over-emphasized . |
| 198 | Nowadays almost every developed country is concerned about the issue of a growing aging population because this issue is a barrier for a country 's development . |
| 199 | Aging has been an issue in many countries and especially developed countries . |
| 200 | Today , the number of old people is increasing . |
| 201 | More countries are facing problems brought about by the aging process in the social as well as the economic aspects . |
| 202 | The older population is expanding at a substantially faster rate than that of the world 's total population . |
| 203 | Finally , all in all , a country should deal closely with the issues of an aging population . |
| 204 | The immense social cost arising from ageing population can be attributed to mounting healthcare problem , diminishing of economic productivity and increasing accountability of younger generation towards the elderly . |
| 205 | The human aging process has accelerated in recent years . |
| 206 | Therefore , as much as other problems , mainly those dealing with the economy , may seem to demand and need more immediate attention , the ageing population issue can not be ignored and the spending on this area should not be reduced in order for a majority of the population to benefit . |
| 207 | As the elderly will likely to form the core of the population in future , they are becoming the major source of the economic growth . |
| 208 | Governments of different countries may have different agenda lists ; however , aging population is definitely an issue present in the list . |
| 209 | Aging population is becoming a more and more serious problem , consuming a great amount of money from public programs . |
| 210 | The group of elderly people is getting bigger which tells us that the current policy is not applicable anymore in the future as there will be more demand from the elderly . |
| 211 | This is because the problem of an aging population affects the rate of development of a country in the long run . |
| 212 | In conclusion , the negative impact of the aging process is inevitable . |
| 213 | At the same time , this sustainable shift in aging population poses challenges to policy makers . |
| 214 | Ageing issues are complicated . |
| 215 | The issue of an ageing population should be taken seriously , and more has to be put in place in addressing the issue . |
| 216 | Aging populations present considerable challenges to serious fiscal consequences for welfare states . |
| 217 | Problems associated with an aging population will be the increase in social and healthcare cost and lower level of productivity . |
| 218 | Aging population is a global problem . |
| 219 | Over time , the population of the elderly is gradually growing . |
| 220 | The reason for this is because their aging population problem is much more serious as compared to developing countries . |
| 221 | Number of Elderly People Increasing . |
| 222 | Nevertheless , the aging population problem must not be overlooked by focusing on only the important factors contributing to the country 's development . |
| 223 | In conclusion , coping with an aging population will require a long term effort and it is a challenge to a country . |
| 224 | In recent years , the increasing severity of the aging problem has brought about yet another problem that requires action to be taken promptly . |
| 225 | While the population is shifting towards a greying one , many would start to worry about the ease of aging in the current society , especially amidst a time of financial crisis and difficulty . |
| 226 | Many countries experience population aging . |
| 227 | Without any doubt , it will be common to see an increase in the aging population . |
| 228 | Nobody can deny the adverse effects of aging process in society today . |
| 229 | The increasing population of the elderly has a significant impact on economic growth , investment and consumption . |
| 230 | Aging issues have gained substantial attention from the public recently . |
| 231 | Ageing is a process that all humans have to go through , but the problems that come along with it are unavoidable . |
| 232 | As the number of elderly increases , countries are forced to allocate a larger amount of public spending to take care of their ageing population . |
| 233 | As the elder population grows larger and larger , the burden on the younger generation and the government becomes greater and greater . |
| 234 | Global aging is a critical topic that the world is concerned about . |
| 235 | An ageing population is currently a global phenomenon that occurs in many parts of the world . |
| 236 | The various issues regarding an aging population as laid out in this essay are serious problems faced by most developed countries around the world . |
| 237 | However , adults nowadays are stressed enough when facing the competitive dynamic world and high living expenses . |
| 238 | It is essential that the aged problem should be seen in the long term perspective where the country 's economy is continuously strong enough to cope . |
| 239 | Thus , many countries are spending more effort and money on the aging population problem population problem . |
| 240 | Nowadays , our society has to face a very serious problem which has actually existed for a long time . |
| 241 | Until recently , the problems of an aging population have become a major concern among all the nations throughout the world . |
| 242 | Both developed and developing countries are challenged by the difficulties resulting from global aging such as limitation of public spending on the health care of the elderly . |
| 243 | Since , the aging population has been dramatically influencing various fields in people lives such as economics , healthcare system , and social policy . |
| 244 | It is undoubtedly true that senior citizens always find it difficult to live independently in their old age . |
| 245 | Although the country 's development is essential , it can not neglect the frailer aging group of the population . |
| 246 | With the growing demand of the rapidly rising aging population , dealing with these issues is inevitable . |
| 247 | Aging population has become the topic for a lot of discussion . |
| 248 | An aging process means the process of growing old and getting more matured . |
| 249 | Clearly , aging process will become more and more difficult to deal with and there is an urgent need to tackle this issue . |
| 250 | From birth to the death , man has experienced huge change continuously which is called the aging process and as a result , our society has became older and older . |
| 251 | The older population is growing at a considerably faster rate than the world 's population . |
| 252 | The trend of an ageing population is here to stay . |
| 253 | The change in the age structure of a country 's population will have a profound impact on the political , social and economical conditions of that country . |
| 254 | Today , the aging problem has begun to draw people 's attention . |
| 255 | The aging process is an inevitable part of life . |
| 256 | The number of aging people , also known as the gray population , is increasing rapidly nowadays . |
| 257 | In conclusion , it is clear that the problems generated by aging population can not be ignored . |
| 258 | Nevertheless , we also should n't completely ignore the aging population . |
| 259 | As the aging population becomes larger , more people retire than usual . |
| 260 | The vast increase in the aging population has led the economy to a lack of effective workers . |
| 261 | In conclusion , aging is nowadays a global issue . |
| 262 | At this point , one may wonder if the aging population is the most important issue to take note of . |
| 263 | In conclusion , it is inevitable for countries to deal with an ageing population . |
| 264 | The extent of public spending on the aged has always been a complicated issue in many developed countries . |
| 265 | The growing number of the elderly around the world has certainly created a huge iimpact which in turn has caused changes to the structure of current society . |
| 266 | Others may argue that the main cause of the aging problem is actually longer life span itself . |
| 267 | The world 's population is growing older . |
| 268 | Another problem faced is the lack of public recognition of life-long and continuing contributions of older people to society |
| 269 | Fast-aging population remains a precarious global challenge in today 's world . |
| 270 | Ageing has always been a concern of many as no one can escape the ageing process and it has never been an easy task going through it . |
| 271 | Numerous countries experience aging population |
| 272 | This will eventually increase the life span not only for the elderly , but also for the other generations . |
| 273 | Although , the R&D sector is important , the aging population must not be neglected as a portion of the old may still remain vulnerable . |
| 274 | Ageing is viewed as an inevitable phase of life that we are compelled to live through . |
| 275 | The fast ageing population has brought about issues such as increased demand for better healthcare and social services , a reduction in competitiveness of the economy that has increased the strain and burden of the working population . |
| 276 | Hence , there is a lot of concern with whether the government is going to spend more money to help the aging population or otherwise . |
| 277 | Population aging has become a cause of concern in the realm of finance to the government . |
| 278 | The aging population really affects the country 's economy . |
| 279 | Aging population has raised many complex issues , especially the budget issues . |
| 280 | A fast aging population will have serious detrimental effects in developed countries . |
| 281 | Aging , a biological process which every single normal human in this world must experience every day , has become quite a serious problem for some countries in recent decades . |
| 282 | besides global warming , an aging population is another phenomenon that is of concern to the world today , one that has no definite solution |
| 283 | The negative impact on society caused by the aging population can not be underestimated nor ignored . |
| 284 | Therefore , humans tend to live longer and the ageing population is rising at an increasing rate regardless of how developed their nation is . |
| 285 | The reason is that the process of aging occurs to everyone . |
| 286 | Aging populations are a global phenomenon which affects economic growth , sustainability within families and public spending . |
| 287 | Several problems which relate to the issue include health , financial and welfare problems of the elderly have come under the concern of the government . |
| 288 | Large number of retirees are expected in the future . |
| 289 | After looking at both sides , we can see that the older population is not a small group of people and the number will continue to increase in number in the future . |
| 290 | Thus it is crucial to solve the issue of an aging population as it has a domino effect on the social and economic aspects of the society . |
| 291 | Until recently , there was much concern about the consequences of over spending on the welfare of the aging population . |
| 292 | If the number of elderly continues to increase , pertinent problems will definitely escalate . |
| 293 | They have begun to realize that their life expectancy is now much longer than that of previous generations . |
| 294 | The effects of the aging population may be exaggerated , but we should not lack foresight and neglect them . |
| 295 | At the same time , the aging trend somehow seemed to have caught up with it . |
| 296 | However , economic growth affects the nation 's long-term well-being . |
| 297 | This is the question many people grapple with and the core of the debate lies in the impact they bring on the aging process . |
| 298 | Firstly , through economical means , elderly people are becoming increasingly part of the working community , working past the retirement age . |
| 299 | Firstly , the elderly are leading longer lives . |
| 300 | Countries with a fast aging population face an ongoing battle against the ever increasing welfare and health care costs . |
| 301 | Nevertheless , the aging process is an unavoidable , undesirable , problem-ridden phrase of life that we are required to go through . |
| 302 | They are problems like global warming and aging population . |
| 303 | Hence , age is a necessary factor for the voters . |
| 304 | Aging population is defined as having more elderly compared to the younger generations . |
| 305 | Old age is a reality that we all have to face one day . |
| 306 | Furthermore , aging is a natural process and everyone will grow old one day . |
| 307 | In other words , there will be a significant portion of the nation 's populace being senior citizens in the near future . |
| 308 | Therefore , unemployment amongst elderly would be a common sight , increasing the number of financially dependent elderly . |
| 309 | The aging population problem should be viewed at the same importance as the country 's development . |
| 310 | People may think that it is time for the aged to enjoy their life because they have slogged for many decades , but they do not know that most of the aged are still fit and healthy . |
| 311 | As the problem of aging population intensifies throughout the years , there will always be a debate on how much of public spending should be allocated to the aged . |
| 312 | An aging population is a reality that can not be postponed and it is happening now . |
| 313 | The world 's population is aging . |
| 314 | Demographic trends across both developed and developing countries reflect that the world population is rapidly ageing . |
| 315 | Every person will experience the effect of aging process when they age . |
| 316 | Many opponents may argue that the aged are the most vulnerable group in the society and thus need more and more attention . |
| 317 | Good long-term planning is essential to solve this problem of the aged and public spending on the aged is very crucial , and it can not be neglected . |
| 318 | They will be the ones to support the large number of the future aging population . |
| 319 | This essay has identified that public spending on the aged is necessary due to changing demographic patterns of today 's society and should not be disregarded . |
| 320 | With a paradigm shift in many countries towards a greying population , many governments are confronted with the responsibility of implementing policies that assist the ageing process . |
| 321 | The effects caused by the global economy indirectly control the speed of aging . |
| 322 | To progress as a nation or to leave out the elderly is controversial . |
| 323 | During the recent years , the increasing competition between the old and other groups in society for scarce resources has been on the political agenda of many countries . |
| 324 | This is because the aged are the most vulnerable group of people in the society . |
| 325 | Countries with a fast aging population now are confronted with problems like a shrinking productivity and a heavy financial burden to support the welfare program for the elderly . |
| 326 | In fact , the issue of aging population is normally seen in all developing and developed countries due to the explosion of technologies and enhancement in lifestyle . |
| 327 | An often overlooked aspect when it comes to aging is the crucial role the government plays in it . |
| 328 | The question on whether national economies should be spent on the aged has long been a controversial one . |
| 329 | It is undeniable that spending on the aged is important ; however , we should not neglect the more important areas like education and economy to make sure that the future generation does not suffer from the same problem again . |
| 330 | Aging affects all people . |
| 331 | To illustrate further , the aging population is growing and it is not feasible for countries to simply continue public spending and varying the amount as needed . |
| 332 | For the past few years , the issue of an aging population has been debated widely across the globe as it took the world world by storm . |
| 333 | However , the question is whether we are ready for the increase in an aging population or not ? |
| 334 | With the growing population and various problems that the present government face today , the governments are finding it tedious to balance the budget to ensure that all areas of development are being met . |
| 335 | Even though it has developed very fast in the past decades , it is facing a big problem now that nuclear output is worldwide shrinking . |
| 336 | Public spending on the aged has been the topic of argument in parliaments across the world as it occupies a significant sum of a developed society 's annual budget . |
| 337 | In the recent years , besides many issues such as wars in the Middle East , financial crisis , terrorism , a fast-aging population has become an unprecedented problem which many countries have encountered , especially the developed ones . |
| 338 | There is a need to develop a sense of urgency over the ageing population issue . |
| 339 | However , some still think that the younger generation and the government are responsible for dealing with the problem of an aging population . |
| 340 | There are always some controversies over the future of aging , which is one of the most interesting subjects nowadays . |
| 341 | This is where the government has to make a tough choice between the aged and the country 's advancement . |
| 342 | There is much concern about the government 's decision to allot a huge sum of the national budget on the elderly as it is uncertain on whether the investment on the aged will attribute or be to the country 's development . |
| 343 | Never ever forget that old age is a reality that everyone has to face one day . |
| 344 | Leaders of countries must rise above ideology and engage practical realities to cope with the problem of a fast aging population . |
| 345 | As a result , the percentage of old is certainly rising rapidly . |
| 346 | The time has changed and the elderly should too . |
| 347 | Aging , is an inevitable process which every man has to face . |
| 348 | Demographic changes such as a growing population will have serious consequences on health issues in developed countries . |
| 349 | Given my above two reasons , one may argue that the ideology of such an approach in dealing with an aging population is too long-term oriented . |
| 350 | However , the main priority is still on the country 's development and the spending on the aged is not sufficient to curb the aging population 's needs . |
| 351 | But , the aging problem may be exaggerated , due to a variety of reasons . |
| 352 | In fact , we all will grow old one day . |
| 353 | As time passes , everybody will eventually become older and so we should prepare for it now . |
| 354 | Public spending is increasing rapidly with the growing aged population and governments are losing control of their spending . |
| 355 | We , younger generations , must realize that someday we will grow old as well . |
| 356 | Aging is a process of life that one would eventually go through . |
| 357 | These policies would eventually apply to all individuals as aging is part of the human cycle . |
| 358 | The biggest challenge is to reduce the fiscal and economic cost of elder dependency . |
| 359 | Every one of us will eventually be part of the elderly population . |
| 360 | Another reason why people support the idea of spending on the elderly people is that it 's a natural process for everyone to age . |
| 361 | After all , we all grow old one day . |
| 362 | The last policy is the age-friendly policies which increase the employment of the older worker . |
| 363 | In conclusion , the problem of an aging population is rather a problem of rigid and outmoded policies and institutions than only a problem of a demographic change . |
| 364 | Everybody will grow old and is bound to experience the effects of it at one point in his or her life . |
| 365 | The moment we become old , it implies that we are closer to the end of our lives . |
| 366 | Nations in Asia are suffering from the problem of an aging population . With the increasing problem , the government has no choice but to spend a large sum of money to help and allow the process of aging in the society to be easy and convenient . |
| 367 | Secondly , allowing massive public spending on the elderly tends to create a negative impact on the society . |
| 368 | On the other hand , some people still doubt whether or not the advancement or development has actually helped the aging population . |
| 369 | The 'greying of society ' has become a serious issue for several developing and developed countries today . |
| 370 | It 's called global aging and it threatens to bankrupt the great powers " . |
| 371 | Up until now , the social policies toward the aged rights always draw a great deal of attention from the community because of the vulnerability of this special part of the population . |
| 372 | With that situation on hand , many policies makers and governments are debating on the amount of public spending that should be allocated for the aged . |
| 373 | The government confronts a series of financial and social problems . |
| 374 | However , critics argue that the elderly are inefficient , conservative and out-dated . |
| 375 | The difficulties in ageing are well-documented and hence have always been a source of debate for any society . |
| 376 | If there is a limit to the budget meant for the elderly , the quality of life that the government provides for the elderly will be affected . |
| 377 | It is undeniable that the world population is ageing regardless of how obsessed humans are about the . |
| 378 | The magnitude of the issue on aging population is comparable to issues such as global warming . |
| 379 | Budgetary challenges posed by ageing populations : the impact on public spending on pensions , health and long-term care for the elderly and possible indicators of the long-term sustainability of public finances . |
| 380 | After all , these children will eventually be part of the elderly population . |
| 381 | Everyone will grow old one day ; it is just another phase in life . |
| 382 | This is evident by an increasing number of old people being sent to old folks home every year . |
| 383 | A greying world is inevitable and it is essential to provide necessary care and support for the elderly . |
| 384 | In conclusion , every person will face the aging process and as a result , various diseases such as vision and hearing loss , smell problems , and memory loss are likely to attack as they age . |
| 385 | As with old age , there is always a possibility of illness . |
| 386 | Ultimately , they will be living in the old folks home and eventually use up their savings . |
| 387 | Indeed , aging is a natural process that everyone will experience . |
| 388 | Secondly , the aged generation could strain national budgets . |
| 389 | There are also considerations like age and maturity ( Gillian , Denise and Bartha 2009 ) . |
| 390 | Since most of the young will be old someday , today 's children will in time receive the benefits granted to today 's elderly , as long as current commitments remain in place . |
| 391 | How much public spending should the aged receive is a widely debatable topic . |
| 392 | However , everyone will have to go through it eventually . |
| 393 | We should remember their deeds and we should also remember that we will become old one day . |
| 394 | People must put themselves in elderly people 's shoes and realize that one day they will also be aged and need the support of their children and others . |
| 395 | The experience of the elders would also be passed on . |
| 396 | Otherwise , we are the ones who will bear the impact |

| 0 | Furthermore , health care providers might also reveal the person 's genetic status to concerned family members which in turn might weaken our confidence in the providers |
|---|---|
| 1 | Admittedly , genetic testing raises legal issues ; however , an individual who tested positive for a genetic disease has to decide whether to make known the results of genetic testing to relevant third parties such as family members or relatives who have the possibility of passing on the similar disease . |
| 2 | Many problems such as discrimination and psychological stigmatisation attributed from the release of genetic testing should be taken into consideration when deciding whether to reveal the genetic testing results as they can worsen an individual 's health condition . |
| 3 | Sometimes though , keeping mum may not be an ideal choice for there may be a genuine need to disclose the results of genetic testing to people other than the individual . |
| 4 | Furthermore , the result from genetic testing might also cause family members to be discriminated by the society |
| 5 | On the other hand , some may question the accuracy of genetic testing , and the unnecessary worries it might bring to an individual . |
| 6 | However , the results of the test can stir up much controversy in whether a carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his family . |
| 7 | Secondly , it may create psychological distress in family members if the genetic test results were to be revealed . |
| 8 | While some proponents suggest that this involves the privacy of the individual who undergoes the genetic testing , the test results might also have adverse effects on those who are closely related to that person . |
| 9 | Making known the results of genetic testing to relevant parties such as employers and even family members can cause ethical and social problems . |
| 10 | Such genetic risks have a high percentage chance of appearing in the family thus the question lies if the information be revealed by the carrier to his or her relatives for the bigger picture , or to be kept to him or herself . |
|---|---|
| 11 | However , one should not forget that once the genetic result of the individual is disclosed , it might be difficult for the individual to integrate into the society as he may be discriminated against . |
| 12 | In addition , people who disclose their genetic information are worried that they may face genetic discrimination , for instance , when applying for jobs and insurance . |
| 13 | People are afraid that the revelation of their genetic testing results would be misused by third parties such as employers and health insurers . |
| 14 | Revealing of an individual 's genetic test results may impact the individual as well as his family members . |
| 15 | Hence , one might not feel secure to disclose he or she genetic testing results to his or her family members . |
| 16 | There is often a concern about whether an individual should reveal his genetic test result as it may bring about several impacts on the individual and on third parties . |
| 17 | These developments have also raised concerns about whether a carrier of a known genetic risk has the duty to inform his relatives about his genetic test results . |
| 18 | Some carriers of genetic diseases object to telling their genetic test results as they think that such disclosure would not help in curing those disorders . |
| 19 | ( Schuett , 2008 ) There are some who think that the disclosure of a genetic testing result is unnecessary and they argue that it may bring immense grief and worry to relatives of a genetic disease carrier . |
| 20 | However , genetic testing has brought about issues if such genetic results are revealed and abused . |
| 21 | Because the results of genetic testing not only affect the person who takes the test but also relates to his family members , sometimes people may encounter dilemmas . |
| 22 | Various ethical and social complications arise from the different options for the inflicted subjects such as to tell or not tell their families or relatives about the positive results of the genetic diagnosis . |
| 23 | Although some argue that genetic testing raises social issues , these individuals may face discrimination from employers , insurance providers and society . |
| 24 | Some may argue that individuals who have undergone genetic testing should not be obligated to inform their relatives for fear that they will lose their privacy and cause their relatives to suffer from the emotional burden of feeling guilty and anxious about whether they would suffer from the disease . |
| 25 | For example , letting parents know about the genetic risks may cause them to have a guilty conscience , they may feel responsible for passing a genetic mutation on to their child . |
| 26 | Though the benefits of genetic testing are numerous , individuals are forced to face an ethical dilemma of whether they are obligated to reveal the results to their relatives . |
| 27 | Another reason is that the misuses of genetic testing results may cause social discrimination . |
| 28 | Secondly , if the individual requesting genetic testing does not have the final say in whether to reveal the result of such testing , the individual will have problems with his loved ones , such as stress within the family and strained family relationships ( , 2005 ) . |
| 29 | The failure of disclosure of genetics test results frequently cause relatives to be enraged and upset , and this had lead to numerous lawsuits against the genetics provider , as they felt that it should be these genetic providers ' responsibilities to inform them , but in fact is the responsibility of the person being tested ( Falk , J . |
| 30 | Consequently , when someone shows the predisposition to genetic disorder , it exposes one to the possibility of stigmatisation and discrimination when the genetic information is made accessible to others . |
| 31 | Revealing the results of individual genetic testing without an individuals permission may lead to the invasion of privacy and social discrimination . |
| 32 | Genetic testing gives people information to know their health conditions but this testing raises ethical and psychological issues concerning whether an individual taking the genetic testing must reveal the result to third parties such as family , employers and friends because the result can be stressful . |
| 33 | Critics argue that genetic testing result is not fully accurate and by informing relatives regarding the result , it will impose unnecessary psychological burden to the family . |
| 34 | By revealing results to relatives , those with children may feel a sense of guilt as they are worried that they could have passed the genetic disorder to their children . |
| 35 | Genetic testing creates tension within the family because the results can reveal information about other family members in addition to the person who is tested ( What are the risks and limitations of genetic testing , 2009 ) . |
| 36 | With these concerns in mind , the individual may not agree to tell the family members the genetic testing results . |
| 37 | Such tragic incident would re-occur if a carrier of a known genetic risk were to hide his or her condition from his or her family members and relatives . |
| 38 | Finally , the potential discrimination in the society upon revealing the genetic test results is faulty . |
| 39 | Some individuals do not want to reveal their genetic test result to their family as they do not want their family to be worried . |
| 40 | However , some may argue that revealing of the genetic test results of an individual would protect the individual 's family members . |
| 41 | Firstly , individuals might not be ready to disclose their genetic testing results to their family members as they feel that their privacy is invaded ( A.M , 2009 ) . |
| 42 | If one has unfortunately been tested positive in their genetic test , this would more or less place them in an ethical dilemma , whether they should reveal the results to their family members . |
| 43 | The individual may refused to release the genetic test 's result , when it could provide treatment or prevent the spread of the illness within the family , in the fear of discrimination and humiliation . |
| 44 | The genetic disease may spread among the community if an individual is unaware of a possible genetic disorder developing in him/her . |
| 45 | Hence , the carrier of a known genetic risk should not be obligated to inform his relatives for fear of information being leaked out , which can lead to potential discrimination . |
| 46 | While the genetic testing can assist people in predicting and ruling out some genetic disorders and problems which are hard to be find in daily life , it will still bring about some problems to human beings to some extent . |
| 47 | However , by doing so , he is actually putting his family at risk as they will not know whether they too carry the defective gene which would put them at a higher risk of developing the disease associated with the gene ( ) . |
| 48 | The main issue pertaining to this is that when an individual chooses not to disclose the result of the genetic testing , it is actually unfair to and has adverse impacts on both his family and his employer . |
| 49 | Firstly , one of the implications in revealing the results to our relatives is the threat of facing genetic discrimination when the information is leaked out ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 50 | If a person did not disclose the result , a child with genetic disabilities may be born , leading to problems in the family . |
| 51 | Although some argue that genetic testing raises ethical issues , the individual faces much psychological stress such as anxiety , fear and guilt when undergoing the process of genetic testing . |
| 52 | Hence , the results of individuals ' genetic test should not be revealed to others unless individuals choose to as the information could be abused and their relatives would most likely be affected . |
| 53 | Because of the potential discrimination that individuals could face due to their results of genetic testing , many choose not to take the test . |
| 54 | In conclusion , people should have the right to restrict others from knowing the result of their genetic test as psychological and social issues make great impacts on people 's lives . |
| 55 | Without revealing the results , the family may not be aware of the potential genetic condition . |
| 56 | In conclusion , individuals should have the privacy to determine whether to reveal their genetic results or not since it not only inflicts emotional distress on their family but also subjects them to social discrimination . |
| 57 | However , if the disorder turns out to be non-treatable , the ethical issue as to whether the carrier of the known genetic risk is obligated to tell his or her relatives arises . |
| 58 | One of the many ethical issues associated with genetic testing involves the question of whether a known carrier of a genetic condition is obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 59 | When the results of genetic testing are revealed , family members might suffer emotionally and psychologically . |
| 60 | When a person is found to be a carrier though genetic testing , the dilemma arises as to whether the carrier should tell his or her relatives about the result as the carrier will not get the disease but the carrier can pass the disease to his or her children ( Frequently Asked Questions About Genetic Testing , 2009 ) . |
| 61 | However , the controversy is that if the individual who carries a genetic risk should tell their relatives the results of genetic testing . |
| 62 | However , without being warned of the possible risk of inheriting these diseases , they would probably not go for their own genetic testing and hence would run the risk of undergoing late treatment for a disease related to a genetic disorder , which may have catastrophic consequences . |
| 63 | However , there have also been some suggestions that the carrier of a certain genetic disease who knows it through genetic testing should not be obligated to tell his family members as he will be discriminated and sometimes even be treated as an outcast in his family . |
| 64 | As they are young or handicapped , they might be immature to know the consequences after they reveal their results of genetic testing . |
| 65 | Since it could indicate the onset of diseases in the future , the results of genetic testing may tag a person with " having inherited defects " ( Buchanan , n.d. ) .Therefore , it has sparked a controversy over whether the individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say in whether to reveal the results . |
| 66 | For instance , genetic information that falls into the hands of insurers and employers without the consent of individuals will be used to prejudice against the tested individual . |
| 67 | Besides that , disclosure of genetic information to close relatives without informed consent may also cause internal family problems . |
| 68 | For example , if individuals reveal their genetic testing results to their parents , their parents will feel very guilty and blame themselves as individuals had inherited their mutated gene ( s ) . |
| 69 | The obligation to make known the results of genetic testing will thus be a disincentive for people to even undergo genetic testing to help themselves . |
| 70 | This impact of genetic testing posed on the individual and their family has brought up many debates on the ethical , social and family issues . |
| 71 | Lastly , family dilemma could arise due to the tension caused by the unfavorable psychological influences of genetic testing |
| 72 | However , genetic testing has raised numerous ethical issues , one of them concerning consent and confidentiality of the tested individual identified to be a carrier of a known genetic risk . |
| 73 | However , with the application of genetic testing , some problems are revealed gradually , such as whether patients should tell their families about their testing results . |
| 74 | The disclosure of a genetic test result , particularly a result that shows a person has a risk of getting a certain diseases or disorder will lead to social discrimination during employment and during purchase of insurance . |
| 75 | In addition , knowing of their genetic risk will help them in making some important decisions and plans such as whether to have children or not . |
| 76 | Some may be concerned that relatives might reject the risks and in turn discriminate the carrier for his or her genetic disorder especially if the developed illness is communicable . |
| 77 | This achievement , however , raises a controversy of whether an individual who requests genetic testing should have the final say to reveal or not reveal the results of such testing . |
| 78 | The choice to undergo genetic testing of an individual is personal . However , before deciding to undergo the test , the patient has to face the fear that his testing result may be disclosed and used against his welfare . |
| 79 | Removing individual 's control over the results will in turn lead to freely accessible genetic information , which may cause social problems and family dilemma . |
| 80 | For example , if the individual feels that he will be strongly stigmatized and marginalized , or once his relatives know of his genetic condition , they will treat him differently or abandon him as he is " tarnished " by a deadly gene , he may not want his relatives to know of his genetic condition , for fear of information being circulated . |
| 81 | As there are ethical , legal and social concerns with revealing the results of such testing , the decision lies in the carrier of the known genetic risk . |
| 82 | Also , with regards to the problem of discrimination , which is the underlying factor for the individual not wanting to reveal the results , there are laws in place in many countries that states that it is against the law to discriminate against people who have tested positive for a particular defective gene . |
| 83 | It has also been suggested that the harsh truth of inheriting a genetic risk may create an emotional impact , especially when disclosed despite the patient 's reluctance . |
| 84 | However , ethical issues regarding the genetic testing arise among people . |
| 85 | Genetic testing , genetic discrimination , genetic can " predict " a person 's risk of developing some diseases , but seeing into your genetic future comes with its own risks . |
| 86 | This has brought about a lot of debate on the ethical and law issues on whether the individual has the final say in revealing the genetic testing results . |
| 87 | On one hand , some may believe that carriers do not have the responsibility to reveal their genetic test results to their relatives as discrimination and excess worrying may occur . |
| 88 | Another social consequence would be when individuals are discriminated against in health coverage based on their genetic make-up . |
| 89 | This will result in dire consequences , for example ; there will not be proper family planning since genetic disorder is not taken into consideration , which might result in continued breeding of undesirable genetic traits in one 's offspring . |
| 90 | The perception of whether an individual should have the final say to reveal the results of genetic tests has lead to an ethical dilemma in society and amongst individuals , particularly in family-relationships . |
| 91 | In conclusion , the revealing of genetic test results may bring more problems than solutions to the individual and therefore they should be given the final say in whether to reveal the results . |
| 92 | His relatives might blame him for 'passing ' the genetic disorder to them , causing the individual to feel guilty . |
| 93 | As the genetics results also apply to the family and relatives ' health risks as well as the patient 's own , many lives are concerned and any unjustifiable reason not to disclose should be overwritten . |
| 94 | Thirdly , knowing the results of the genetic test on the individuals might cause discriminations against them . |
| 95 | Next , a further difficulty issue involves revealing of genetic results to insurance companies . |
| 96 | Ethical issues such as whether an individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say in revealing the results remains shady . |
| 97 | Another reason such why genetic testing results should not be revealed to relatives is because other third parties may have the chance to get hold of these results and use them against the individuals . |
| 98 | This has brought about many controversial issues on ethical , social and legal concerns surrounding the use of genetic testing . |
| 99 | Genetic testing has , however , raised ethical concerns like whether the individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say on whether to reveal the results of such testing ( Chris and Bryn 2002 ) . |
| 100 | Genetic testing would bring negative psychological effects to other people who may not want to know the results ; 2.The revealing of the results would cause discrimination and unfairness in the society . |
| 101 | It will lead to mental trauma and extreme depression if they hide the genetic testing result from their respective spouse . |
| 102 | Misconstruing the results of genetic testing will affect an individual 's self identity and sense of self-worth . |
| 103 | Critics of this point claim that there is a need to protect family members from the troubling information and that some of the family members may not be able to cope emotionally if revealed that they may be at high risk of a genetic disease ( Agatha M et al. , 2009 ) . |
| 104 | A person who understands his role and responsibility as part of a family would not want to see his future generation or his immediate families to suffer from genetic diseases that could otherwise have been prevented if he had discussed his condition . |
| 105 | Some reasons why people should go for genetic testing are to find out genetic diseases in babies and to find out whether a person carries a mutated gene and might t pass it on to his children . |
| 106 | As a result , once everyone is deprived of deciding to keep their information of genetic testing unknown , people who are tested positive would be discriminated against |
| 107 | Genetic discrimination by health insurers and employers could be one of the main hindrances that stop people from sharing their genetic information with blood relatives ( National Human Genome Institute , 2008 ) . |
| 108 | However , if the final decision just depends on the individual , it will not only curb the genetic research development but also delay the precaution of potential risk that some genes convey . |
| 109 | The privacy and confidentiality of a person will be affected by revealing his or her undesirable genetic testing results . |
| 110 | [ i ] The controversy was brought up when deciding if individuals have the final say to reveal such testing as genetic discrimination might surface when the results of such testing are made known to a third party . |
| 111 | However , opponents of this position may argue that genetic testing does not provide a definite prediction on the individual 's health . |
| 112 | Thirdly , the revealing of the genetic testing results may create tension among a family . |
| 113 | It has been argued that genetic discrimination will arise in the context of insurance and employment if the decision is not made by those who are tested . |
| 114 | Some have argued that individuals may not disclose genetic information because they prefer not to contact relatives personally ( Consent and Confidentiality in Genetic Practice : Guidance on Genetic Testing and Sharing Genetic Information , 2005 ) , and they are embarrassed about reporting bad news ( Wertz , 2003 ) , or they are unable to communicate directly with family members ( Ethical Aspects of Human Genetic Testing : An Information Paper , 2000 ) . |
| 115 | In this example , a pregnant relative seeking genetic counseling and his geneticist requires information about the individual in order to give her the most accurate information whether her new-born will have any risk of genetic disorder . |
| 116 | This has brought about many debates on whether the individual who undergoes genetic testing should have the final say in revealing the results . |
| 117 | Often , prediction based on genetic information is uncertain , especially by those who are not well informed about the nature of a disease . |
| 118 | Firstly , the advantage of genetic testing to predict the individuals ' chance of developing or passing an inherited disorder onto their offspring has raised a concern whether the carriers tell their relatives ( Procter 2002 ) . |
| 119 | The result of genetic testing can affect the lives of individuals , their families and also the society . |
| 120 | This has sparked many debates on the obligation of an individual to share the test result with genetic relatives . |
| 121 | While the obligation for a carrier to tell his relatives may be considered as a breach of privacy , not telling them at all is tantamount to negligence , especially if the genetic condition is known to be hereditary . |
| 122 | However , the reticence of one 's genetic test result would mean that family members are unaware of the possible danger to their health . |
| 123 | Some may suggest that it is an ethical responsibility for people who are found to have genetic disorders to inform the results to their family members . |
| 124 | However , the release of genetic testing results has brought about a controversy . |
| 125 | The revelation of genetically tested patients ' results may lead to discrimination by the society ( Mehlman , 1999 ) . |
| 126 | The test results obtained from genetic testing will have ethical and social issues . |
| 127 | Revealing an individual 's genetic makeup and results without their consent can also lead to an infringement of human rights and privacy . |
| 128 | Some have suggested that the issue is related to privacy and the disclosure of genetic information may cause anxiety , guilt , depression and other disadvantages in both individuals and their relatives ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 129 | If the individual does not have the final say in revealing the test results of a positive genetic disorder , there will be a breach of patient confidentiality when the individual had requested not to reveal the results and may cause even further distraught and strain within the family , even if the individual reveals to the loved ones at later . |
| 130 | As genetic diseases can be inherited among family members , anxiety and fear of inheriting the genetic diseases that the individual has been diagnosed with will be created . |
| 131 | Despite the fact that genetic testing can bring about more opportunities for early discoveries of treatable disorders , there are still many controversies revolving around ethical issues on genetic testing . |
| 132 | One main concern about the revelation of genetic risk to one 's relatives is the negative social consequences . |
| 133 | The information on the genetic disorder is important to the relatives as they may be implicated . |
| 134 | Therefore , personally viewing of the results of genetic testing will cause a lot of problems to society . |
| 135 | First of all , if the individuals get diagnosed with hereditary genetic disease , they will probably be overwhelmed by guilt or anxiety , thereby making a wrong decision , which is nondisclosure of their results within families . |
| 136 | Although it is the individual 's right to choose not to disclose their genetic information to his or her relatives , in my opinion , he or she is obligated and responsible to disclose the said genetic information for several reasons . |
| 137 | If the individual declines her request as he wants the information about his genetic status to be confidential , her new-born could be in a high risk of getting the genetic disorder ( Elizabeth A . |
| 138 | The issue is that after an individual undergoes genetic testing and unfortunately finds out that there are problems within him or herself , is the individual obligated to tell his or her family members ? |
| 139 | This is unjust to the family members as they have also the possibility of suffering from the genetic disorder . |
| 140 | The controversy over whether or not the individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say in revealing the result of such testing has been present for a long period of time . |
| 141 | Although genetic testing is made possible , the after effect of knowing and dealing with the disease is another issue . |
| 142 | When family members find out about the test and the possibility of them having the genes , their stress level would increase and their health would be affected . |
| 143 | Otherwise , it will delay the precaution , especially the relatives , of the risk that genetic disease brings . |
| 144 | Genetic testing creates tension within a family because it conveys people the information of getting ill and it also implies that other family members have the possibility of having the same defect genes ( Kahn,2000 ) . |
| 145 | People have grown fearful of genetic testing due to the negative results for life insurances . |
| 146 | However , one biggest problem that arises is whether the individual , who has undergone the genetic test , be obligated to inform his family members/relatives of the results . |
| 147 | Another difficulty involves the disclosure of genetic information to insurance companies . |
| 148 | Despite the fact that genetic testing helps to improve one 's life , it is always surrounded by moral and ethical issues that include family-related ethical dilemma when a potential carrier of a genetic disorder is tested to be a positive result . |
| 149 | The practice of genetic testing has raised many controversies on ethical and social issues . |
| 150 | Opponents of this position argue that the family members may hastily undergo a genetic test on receiving the negative news without careful consideration of the possible discrimination that they may face after the genetic test ( Agatha M et al. , 2009 ) . |
| 151 | But by withholding the information , the risk genes carrier is doing harm to not only himself but to his or her family members . |
| 152 | However , due to the nature of the information generated , there have been many debates over who should hold the final decisions to the disclosure of genetic test results . |
| 153 | Limitations of genetic testing could be the lack of treatment strategies for certain disorders once diagnosed |
| 154 | While genetic testing presents healthcare benefits , it could bring possible harms if misused . |
| 155 | Some people may argue that it is unfair to use genetic tests in the recruitment of employees because it is treating people discriminatively based on a fixed characteristic ( Andre , Velasquez , n.d. ) . |
| 156 | For example , if a parent or a child knows that he gets a kind of genetic disorder , then their children or parents may worry about not only his health but also themselves ' all the time . |
| 157 | Although some may argue that a carrier of a known genetic risk should tell his or her relatives about it , due to privacy issues , or different emotional reactions of relatives or parents . |
| 158 | In a nut shell , disclosure of an individual 's genetic testing information might incur woes in his life . |
| 159 | In conclusion , the results of genetic testing do have big impacts upon people 's life in terms of emotional impacts and genetic discrimination . |
| 160 | An important reason why an individual should have the final say in whether to reveal the results of genetic testing is because people have the right to protect their privacy . |
| 161 | Thus detrimental effects on both parties can be seen due to the failure of disclosing genetic test results to relatives . |
| 162 | However , when a person is confirmed with certain genetic risk , a question . Is it an obligation for the person to tell his or her relatives about the risk ? |
| 163 | Moreover , some of these genetic diseases are contagious and these endanger the whole family and the people around the one who has the disease . |
| 164 | The individual is in ethical dilemma of whether to share the genetic test results within the families . |
| 165 | It is understood that individuals who carry the disease do not wish to reveal their genetic results due to privacy issues or fear that their family members are not ready to accept it . |
| 166 | Lastly , patients may , upon knowing the results of the test , refuse to share the results to immediate family members who will then be at risk as there is a chance that the same gene causing the disease runs through the family . |
| 167 | Tentatively , there is no clear cut verdict but general scenarios suggest that the decision to reveal the genetic test result should lie solely with the individual due to the private nature of such testing and the devastating consequences that will ensue should the genetic test results be exposed without the person 's consent . |
| 168 | In conclusion , revealing genetic testing results will affect individuals . |
| 169 | This is because different people will react differently after knowing an individual 's genetic testing results . |
| 170 | Disclosure of genetic information can discredit doctors as a source of education and may deteriorate the public health system . |
| 171 | Critics argue that genetic information may cause negative emotional and psychological effects on family and relatives ( AACC , 2009 ) . |
| 172 | If the results of individual genetic testing are revealed to employers and insurance companies , employers may not hire people who are diagnosed with certain diseases . |
| 173 | Relatives of the individual will also face a great deal of anxiety that they may have the genetic disorder . |
| 174 | Secondly , the limitation of genetic tests such as the social issue has been taken into account as to whether to reveal the genetic results to their relatives . |
| 175 | Critics may argue that the cost of conducting genetic testing is not justifiable and may not be accurate . |
| 176 | For example , a parent might not want to tell their children that she has a certain inherited disease as she is guilty about passing the mutated genes to her children . |
| 177 | Due to the possibility that it may occur or recur in various family members and relatives , an ethical dilemma as to whether a carrier of a known genetic risk has the obligation to tell his or her relatives arises . |
| 178 | In conclusion , the result of one 's genetic testing may not only affect oneself , but others too . |
| 179 | On top of that , they would have to choose the right time to convey to their children that they might be carriers of a certain genetic disorder . |
| 180 | An individual 's parents will not want to go for genetic testing as they fear that if one of them has a positive test result , he/she is the one who passed his/her mutated genes to the individual |
| 181 | This is important as genetically tested patients may have emotional and psychological problems as a consequence of undergoing genetic testing . |
| 182 | However , if carriers of genetic disorder , such as HIV , do not tell their family , the spouse spouse may have a potential risk of infection unknowingly . |
| 183 | However , sometimes when there is high pressure , like knowing they are having a genetic disorder , the individuals can not make decisions properly , while their family and professional can take good care of them and make the best decision for them ( Forrest et al. , 2007 ) . |
| 184 | Lastly , letting third parties such as relatives know about the genetic testing results may post strains in family relationships . |
| 185 | Secondly , social aspects of genetic discrimination have made subjects reconsider genetic testing testing as the information might be used against them . ( Norrgard , 2008 , Genetic Testing and Privacy Concerns , para 1 ) . |
| 186 | In addition , the person will be ostracized by the community due to the community lacking the knowledge of genetic diseases ( WHO , 2009 ) |
| 187 | This is because there may be a possibility that they will suffer from the genetic disease as well . |
| 188 | Hence , the individual faces a dilemma of whether or not to reveal the test results to them as his family members may not accept the fact and will be adversely affected by the harsh reality . |
| 189 | Without the right to protect his privacy through withholding genetic information of his disorder , the person would feel violated . |
| 190 | In conclusion , consequences such as the existence of genetic discrimination should be taken into consideration when deciding whether the tester has the right to reveal his results . |
| 191 | One main objection to starting a family is that the affected genes or chromosomes might be passed on to the children . |
| 192 | The reason why most people want to protect their privacy concerning genetic information is because they fear discrimination . |
| 193 | When an individual is tested positive for hereditary disease , disclosure of the result might impact his family negatively . |
| 194 | Also , for most kinds of the genetic disorders , the medical technology nowadays is not capable of curing them ( What is genetic testing ? |
| 195 | Proponents may argue that doctors should also release genetic testing results to relatives as these may also involve them . |
| 196 | If confirmed as the carrier of a particular genetic mutation or having increased risk of developing an inherited disease , those unfortunate subjects are not only instantaneously overwhelmed by negative emotions but also subjected to distress and burdens in considering the consequences of their health conditions on their family members . |
| 197 | Although medical personnel are entrusted with the ethics of genetic testing , commercialization and easy access to certain genetic testing may lead to compromising situations for members of the public ( Bioethics Advisory Committee , 2005 ) . |
| 198 | When the first genetic tester does not want to reveal the results , blood relatives will not be alerted to the existence of the risk , and then it will be too late for them to get effective intervention . |
| 199 | Firstly , privacy is one of the worries one will have while considering whether or not to carry out genetic testing . |
| 200 | Actually , whether individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say in revealing the results of such testing is a heated controversy in society today . |
| 201 | Even with the improvement of the technologies related to genetic diseases , these individuals are denied the opportunities to prevent , or even treat the genetic disease that could be present . |
| 202 | Individuals could also face genetic discrimination from insurance companies . |
| 203 | Firstly , the disclosure of a positive test result for a certain genetic disease may cause an individual to be susceptible to discrimination . |
| 204 | In conclusion , the carrier of a known genetic risk should not be obligated to tell his or her relatives as this is an intrusion of privacy and they will be faced with the threats of genetic discrimination and eugenics . |
| 205 | They might have very negative thoughts like anger , fear that they would develop the disease in the near future or if they have children , they might feel guilty about passing the mutation to their children ( University of Colorado Health Sciences Center , 2004 ) . |
| 206 | As such , a controversy occurs as to whether a carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 207 | Firstly , as for the family aspect , genetic testing may create tension among family members ( Genetic testing , 2009 ) . |
| 208 | There is controversy whether a carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 209 | If carriers of the genetic disease who are not mentally strong decided to keep mum about their genetic disease , they may lead an anxious and depressed life ( Gilbar , 2007 ) .The situation is aggravated if they have children as they may feel guilty of the possibility of passing down the disease . |
| 210 | Although some people prefer to be carefree and prefer not to know at all as they cite the fact that knowing will make them anxious and stressed , the onus is on them to go for the genetic testing to determine any abnormalities . |
| 211 | It is because genetic disorder not only affects the health of carriers but also their life . |
| 212 | While the results of such tests may cause much grief and unwarranted panic , should reasons such as this justify the nondisclosure to one 's relatives of a genetic time-bomb which may be inherently inside them ? |
| 213 | Some people may argue that if a carrier of a known genetic risk tells his or her relatives about the risk , he or she will be abandoned by families . |
| 214 | Many critics claim that individuals with positive genetic test results should have the right not to reveal their test results to potential employers . |
| 215 | It can be argued that the carrier might be causing unnecessary worry to his or her relatives as the accuracy of genetic test results varies and also dependent on various factors ( Goh , 2003 ) . |
| 216 | This is because that they might have a higher risk for developing this genetic disease or are already a carrier of this mutation . |
| 217 | The controversial issue on whether one should be obliged to disclose the result of such testing remains a subject of great concern among the society ( Mehlman , 1999 ) . Individual genetic information should not be revealed to a third party without authorisation of the tested individual because the fundamental right to privacy should be respected . |
| 218 | Other than that , some people claim that a genetic disease patient will be discriminated from employment once his or her genetic information is spread by family members . |
| 219 | Secondly , keeping the results as a secret will delay the precaution of the potential genetic risk , especially those who have blood relationship . |
| 220 | Generally , the problem is that genetic information should not be disclosed against people 's privacy . |
| 221 | In addition , positive genetic test results will lead to emotional distress to patients or carriers . |
| 222 | However , since the results of such testing are not completely reliable , the individual requesting genetic testing should have the final say in whether the results should be revealed . |
| 223 | Opponents of this position argue that revelation of genetic test results to third parties will cause individuals to face genetic discrimination . |
| 224 | A genetic result could place a potential employee at a disadvantage by suggesting risk of getting a disease or disorder . |
| 225 | Secondly , revelation of one 's genetic status subjects the individual to many social issues related to genetic discrimination |
| 226 | Some patients and carriers oppose to disclosing the test results as they worry that they will be discriminated at home and experience self-abasement . |
| 227 | For instance , they might argue that people should have the right or the freedom to control their privacy such as over genetic testing results . |
| 228 | In the society today , many have debated whether we really have the right to have the final say whether to reveal the results of the testing as many will think that it will lead to many ethical and social issues . |
| 229 | Next , it is important to inform siblings and children of the genetic disease they might contract and also the possibility of passing those harmful genes to their children if they plan to have any . |
| 230 | However , by not sharing the information , they are posing a danger to their family members potentially at risk of carrying the disease . |
| 231 | Hence , in most cases , disclosing the results of genetic testing to relatives will only bring psychological and mental stress upon them . |
| 232 | Secondly , genetic testing has also been deemed as a social issue . |
| 233 | If individuals did not reveal the results , family members and offspring will not know they have a risk of inheriting the disease . |
| 234 | Hence , genetic testing results should not be known to the family members to prevent relationships from turning sour . |
| 235 | If one 's privacy can not be protected so that the result might be made use of on any purpose , the human rights are endangered and hence this decision should be made by the individual requesting the genetic testing . |
| 236 | If the results of genetic testing are to be forcefully revealed , fewer people will be willing to even go for the test . |
| 237 | " ( 2009 . However once a test result has been conducted , the individual faces a dilemma of whether he should inform his relatives about his results of his genetic test . |
| 238 | In light of this ubiquitous and accessible availability of genetic testing , many have started to question the problems that are associated with the results . |
| 239 | If they are forced to reveal , they could be subjected to unfair treatment and be void of the benefits of genetic test . |
| 240 | It would be morally wrong not to inform an identifiable individual of having a possibility of developing genetic disease . |
| 241 | In this case , third parties such as doctors should not reveal the results , as doctors are usually more concerned with alerting the person of the possible chances of contracting the genetic disease , rather than the possible negative impacts this news may bring to the person . |
| 242 | Since for most people who take genetic testing , they do not acquire adequate knowledge of results in medical sense . |
| 243 | Firstly , revealing genetic testing results raises an issue of privacy . |
| 244 | Furthermore , it is unfair to discriminate against individuals who have the likelihood of developing cancer or diseases as they themselves can not control their own genes . |
| 245 | Individuals requesting genetic testing usually decide not to disseminate their genetic information as discrimination may be put forth to their lives . |
| 246 | However , genetic testing has brought ethical and social issues , not only to the individuals but to the family members as well . ( Norrgard 2008 ) . |
| 247 | The controversy of whether a carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives has been highly debated within the bioethics community ( Mehlman , 2009 ) . |
| 248 | Secondly , revealing genetic testing results will result in different emotional reactions of relatives or parents . |
| 249 | Secondly , the inherited genetic disease may affect not only the individual but his family too as they might also have the defective genes . |
| 250 | For example , if a man 's genetic testing results indicated some pathogenic genes but he got married with a woman without telling her about these results , the woman might feel that she has been cheated after she knew the truth because she did not want to marry a man with gene deficiency . |
| 251 | Critics also fail to acknowledge that it is part of the " social responsibility " on the part of the tested individual to inform genetic relatives of a hereditary condition and the sharing of financial , emotional and psychological burdens among family members . |
| 252 | Although it is an improvement in the scientific world in view of combating diseases , ethical dilemma is born in the communication of genetic risk in families . |
| 253 | Firstly , when an individual is tested to be positive for genetic disorder , he would often be reluctant to share the result with others , even his closest kin . |
| 254 | Furthermore , Norrgard ( 2008 ) also points out that the revealtion of genetic information will cause the family members to be discriminated by the insurance company and employers and families who have the risk of developing an inherited disease or disorder . |
| 255 | Even though a positive result on a genetic test only shows a higher risk of developing the disease , such information is very important and crucial as knowing about one 's predisposition to such a disease may help to reduce the risk of developing it as one would then seek to control one 's lifestyle as environmental factors play an important role in the onset of certain genetic diseases . |
| 256 | Choosing not to inform one 's relatives is in fact interfering with the patient 's right and opportunity to consider the problem , select diagnostic and management options . |
| 257 | Hence , genetic testing results should not be known to the family members to protect them . |
| 258 | Admittedly , it is true that one may face discrimination at work and from insurance companies after a genetic test ( US National Institute of Health , 1998 ) . |
| 259 | Firstly , genetic testing has led to the ethics of medical professionals being questionable . |
| 260 | In addition , abuse of genetic testing information may result in employment discrimination . |
| 261 | It is because genetic testing can not predict how severely one person will be affected by the disordered genes . |
| 262 | But , a genetic test that identifies a carrier of a certain disease could help couples to decide whether they would like to bear children and weigh the risk of passing down an altered gene |
| 263 | In conclusion , for the reason of privacy and technical unreliability as well as to avoid unwanted conditions such as 'genetic discrimination ' , the choice to take a genetic testing is an individual 's personal matter and the decision on whether to disclose the results or not depends solely on the individual . |
| 264 | Genetic information is relevant to both the carrier of a known genetic risk and his or her relatives due to " genetic heritage " ( Wertz , 2003 , p.50 ) . Thus relatives who are unaware of their risk may experience consequences for personal health and family planning ( Forrest et al , 2007 ) . |
| 265 | Although revealing individuals ' genetic test result will benefit individuals ' relative or parents , not much preventive measures can be done to delay or lower the risk of individuals ' relative or parents from developing cancer or diseases . |
| 266 | Arguments proposed by people who stand up to the point that individuals deserve the right to stimulate the genetic info are faulty . |
| 267 | Once a test has been conducted and the results are known , however , a new family related ethical dilemma is born : Should a carrier of a known genetic risk be obligated to tell his or her relatives ? |
| 268 | The children , adolescents and mentally impaired that undergo genetic testing will not know how to handle their results . |
| 269 | Moreover , genetic disorders usually have a great influence on the carrier 's health . |
| 270 | Childbearing decisions are based on genetic information , thus adding social or political pressure on people . |
| 271 | However , some may claim that the individuals have the right to protect their privacy ( Kahn , 2000 ) , and like other private information , genetic information should be protected properly , and people have the final say whether to reveal it to others . |
| 272 | Hence , an individual should decide rationally whether to disclose their genetic results if it inflicts harm and misery to their family . |
| 273 | However , these laws generally fail to offer comprehensive protection to all people at risk for genetic discrimination . |
| 274 | Since genetic testing is to determine if a person has genetic disorder ( Goh , 2003 ) , people usually undergo such test because they are at risk for a disorder . |
| 275 | The release of genetic information of a patient has wide and lifelong implications on his or her life , and therefore this vital decision should be made after careful thought . |
| 276 | This is important for parents who are doing family planning , as it help them to know whether an unborn child will have a genetic condition . |
| 277 | This is because they might make themselves vulnerable to the decisive risk determinants of any particular genetic disease ( Wilcke 1998 ) . |
| 278 | Secondly , the unintentional use of the genetic information can be disadvantageous to the individual and undermine the individual 's ability , career , social interactions and economical choices . |
| 279 | On a larger scale , the negative psychological effect brought by the genetic testing |
| 280 | First and foremost , revealing the genetic test results without one 's consent is an invasion of privacy . |
| 281 | However , family members who are unaffected by the genetic disease may feel guilty and this condition is known as survivor guilt . |
| 282 | Genetic testing is done voluntary by a person and often , the question " should a person who is found to be a carrier of genetic disorder through the genetic testing tell his or her family " arises when it comes to releasing the results of the test . |
| 283 | Firstly , it leads to a difficult situation for the experts to explore and conduct further study on genetic research . |
| 284 | Unfortunately , there is support and opposition among the public for the disclosure of the result of genetic testing , . |
| 285 | For example , a person who is diagnosed with a serious disorder in a gene , which may lead to a rare disease , will have to think very carefully before getting married since his or her children may also have this disease . |
| 286 | Since genetic testing requested by an individual involves the use of own genetic makeup , it is therefore against their human right to reveal the genetic testing results without their contest . |
| 287 | Some may say that it is a kind of discrimination against employees who have certain genetic traits . |
| 288 | First and foremost , genetic discrimination arises when employers lower the chance of promoting genetically-ill individuals or when these individuals are denied a job . |
| 289 | In addition , some are worried that revealing such information to their offspring may affect the latter 's psychological well-being ( Living with , 2009 ) . |
| 290 | In recent years , the Council for Responsible Genetics ( CRG ) had found that employers and insurance companies are increasingly biased against people who tested positive in a genetic test . |
| 291 | Besides , the individuals will feel embarrassed of their potential weakness if they get undesirable genetic testing results . |
| 292 | Moreover , even if people know their results of genetic testing , usually they are able to do very little . |
| 293 | These situations will only make the carrier unhappy and hence many choose not to tell their relatives about their genetic results . |
| 294 | Though , they may assist patients by informing them of the likelihood of their relatives contracting the same diseases , the final decision ultimately still depends on the individual . |
| 295 | As such , family members will be uncertain if the disease is present in the family line and fret about the medical conditions of their future generations . |
| 296 | By not telling this important information about the family having a risk of getting the same disorder , it 's like denying the right to life . |
| 297 | After all , the burden of carrying a genetic disease is not something that one would want to make known to others . |
| 298 | The results of genetic testing may open doors for potential discrimination in terms of job opportunities and insurance policies . |
| 299 | However , some argue that individual right to consent , privacy and confidentiality are important and it is the individual 's decision whether to disclose personal genetic results to relatives or otherwise . |
| 300 | ( Human Genome Project Information ) Therefore , disclosing genetic test results to family members would only cause unnecessary anxiety to them , which can greatly affect their quality of life . |
| 301 | Many genetic disorders worsen over time and have long-term health consequences ; thus the disclosure of the results for an inherited disease is beneficial for early treatment and prevention of the disorder to save lives . |
| 302 | There are many controversies on the fairness in the use of genetic information by other third parties such as insurers , employers , adoption agencies , schools , military and the courts . |
| 303 | Lastly , a person with known genetic results may experience 'genetic discrimination' . |
| 304 | However , there are some ethical and social issues with regard to whether the family of the carrier should inform his or her relatives . |
| 305 | Research has shown that individuals tend to keep risk information to themselves ( Forrest , 2000 ) . But the disease could be due to hereditary genes . The individual 's family , offspring , and offspring of the family members might also inherit the disease . |
| 306 | It is alright for not sharing own 's genetic status but sharing of mutation in family with blood relatives is essential as it affects the blood relatives as well . |
| 307 | For example , some relatives would have the thinking that the genetic risk of the carrier would bring about a bad reputation to them so they may start to distance themselves and try to eliminate all contact with him . |
| 308 | One might even be excluded from health insurance coverage when one 's gene status shows a flaw |
| 309 | As genetic testing is making rapid progress on providing information on the hidden DNAs which might cause diseases , the techniques have also aroused a large amount of heated debates on the ethical and moral issues surrounding the control of final say of the testing . |
| 310 | If an individual discovers after a genetic test that he has a high risk of developing certain diseases , it would mean that his family member who share similar genes may be at risk as well ( Forrest K , 2003 ) . |
| 311 | Fears that a rise in genetic testing will rule out insurance are " paranoia " . |
| 312 | Hence , by revealing the genetic testing result without permission from the individual , it constitutes a breach of medical confidentiality . |
| 313 | This will be further lowered by opponents who are against the revelation of genetic results due to intrusion of privacy . |
| 314 | They are still not mentally prepared to disclose the information as they think that they might get discriminated by their relatives . |
| 315 | Although genetic testing is not always definite in predicting illnesses , no one would ever know if the genetic disease might occur and early prevention can ultimately save the individual 's life . |
| 316 | However , the advent of genetic testing does not bring unanimous consent from the public . |
| 317 | Many genetic disorders such as cancers will lead to serious consequences if the carrier does not have a healthy lifestyle to protect himself . |
| 318 | As we can not control our genes , it is unfair to discriminate against a person 's genetic predispositions . |
| 319 | Individuals who found out that their genes were mutated have an increased risk iof developing cancer or diseases . |
| 320 | There is tension between employees and employers regarding genetic testing . |
| 321 | So , the individual should first observe any signs of symptoms of the genetic disease the relative may have , such as deformity or behavior problems , before deciding whether or not to tell . |
| 322 | Individuals may possess duty of care and/or moral obligations to communicate the potential genetic risk to relatives . |
| 323 | This is extremely unfair to an individual by discriminating against his genetic predispositions because we can not control our genes . |
| 324 | Lastly , it is a violation of basic human rights when the carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to inform his relatives ( Jones , 2005 ) . |
| 325 | Sermijn had done a research involving family relatives who revealed a lack of understanding and awareness that a genetic risk was present in their family ( Sermijn et al , 2004 ) . |
| 326 | It is said that parents may feel guilty because their may pass a dangerous disorder over their children ( Cancer , 2009 ) . |
| 327 | One of the innumerable concerns is genetic disorder , which is an illness caused by abnormalities in genes or chromosomes . |
| 328 | The individual is unlikely to reveal their results to their family , potential and current employers , insurance companies for fear of discrimination from them ( 2007 ) . |
| 329 | For example , potential employers may want their interviewees screened to determine if they carry the ideal genes for the job . ; insurance companies may deny or increase their premium for carriers of certain genetic disorder ( Bereano , 2000 ) . |
| 330 | Secondly , the disclosure of individuals ' genetic information to employers may result in employment discrimination . |
| 331 | As such , the growth of genetic testing technology has initiated considerable debate over the privacy and confidentiality of genetic information . |
| 332 | One of them is about the privacy and confidentiality of the individual who undergoes genetic testing , whether he or she should reveal the results of the testing to third parties or not . |
| 333 | This will lead to some diseases , dependdepending on which gene is mutated . |
| 334 | Firstly , it is immoral for a person to conceal his genetic testing results . |
| 335 | As genetic testing becomes more and more popular , the moral issues around it have also been raised . |
| 336 | Although genetic testing has remarkably improved our life , it still gives rise to many controversial issues , especially ethical concerns . |
| 337 | This is because certain genetic diseases may be accentuated by external factors . |
| 338 | While some may feel that it is the moral obligation of the individual to inform his immediate family members of positive results of inheritable diseases such as cancer or HD , since they too may inherit the disease , I feel that there is no need for such an action as the result is after all private and confidential . |
| 339 | This is because there are many social and emotional aspects with regards to genetic testing . |
| 340 | But once the result is out and the person has some defective genes , different issues starts to surface . |
| 341 | Due to the lack of treatment strategies of some genetic disorders , a carrier might have a short lifespan . |
| 342 | However , timing is important so one should think of the consequences before revealing one 's genetic condition . |
| 343 | Some of the states also have legislation to limit employers to collect , use and disclose genetic information . |
| 344 | It does not identify all of the possible gene mutations that cause a particular condition . |
| 345 | After knowing of a possible genetic condition , one may think twice before deciding to conceive a child . |
| 346 | Such discrimination could appear in the area of employment , where companies use the results of genetic tests to influence the employment prospects of an individual . |
| 347 | Taking care of children with serious genetic disorder is not an easy task , and as such , a couple should inform each other of their genetic problem first and try to discuss the consequences and think of a solution together instead of keeping it a secret . |
| 348 | In conclusion , genetic testing results should not be made known to third parties such as family members . |
| 349 | While it may be difficult even for the individual to accept the results of the test , sharing the news with his or her relatives and friends may be the larger concern . |
| 350 | An important reason why patients should not be empowered to make the final decision is that it prevents doctors from tending to potential patients who could be at high risk of developing a disease if disclosure is not made . |
| 351 | Firstly , an individual with positive genetic test results has no right to keep the test results to himself . |
| 352 | In a word , genetic testing may lead to a genetic discrimination in employment and insurance industry ( Genetic testing , 2009 ) . |
| 353 | With the development of ability to test for genetic disorder , an emerging problem that has been " the subject of significant debate within the bioethics community " ( Mehlman , 1999 , para.5 ) is the privacy of genetic information . |
| 354 | While it is true that the extreme circumstances mentioned do exist in society , one must agree that relatives have their rights too , to know about the presence of genetic risk within the family because no one has exclusive rights over his or her genes as they are shared among the family . |
| 355 | Secondly , given the choice of not revealing one 's genetic testing result , an individual is likely to , more often than not , choose not to do so to his employer . |
| 356 | Development and advancement in the field of genetic research has challenged the scientists and the public on a wide range of issues especially issues relating to ethicall concerns . |
| 357 | However , whether a carrier of such disease is obligated to tell his or her relatives has become a great concern since the last few years . |
| 358 | In addition , his relatives will understand better by going for counseling that everyone carries gene mutations that can lead to diseases , and no one has control over what they pass on to their children ( Elizabeth A . |
| 359 | If the person does not tell his family about the test results , his family members would not know their health deficiencies and would not tell their doctors . |
| 360 | However , as technology advances , exploitation of genetic testing increases , resulting in the breach of human rights of privacy . |
| 361 | More importantly , the consequences of a genetic test on an individual should be made known to him or her before making such decision . |
| 362 | Once the disease is confirmed , then their siblings should probably take a genetic test too . |
| 363 | Some argue that genetic elimination in choosing worker is discrimination because this is an action of limiting one 's right to work ( Andre and Velasquez 2009 ) . |
| 364 | They should tell about their health condition to prevent their future offspring from having defective genes . |
| 365 | Should a carrier of a known genetic risk be obligated to tell his or her relatives ? |
| 366 | In fact , genetic test " can tell us only part of the story " as it is not 100 % accurate , and the disease tested may not be manifest until the end of one 's life span ( CRG , 2001 , Genetic tests can be used to help . |
| 367 | However , they fail to consider his relatives ' reactions towards him just like how people react to Human Immunodeficiency Virus ( HIV ) patients . |
| 368 | Likewise , while a relative may have tested positive for a cancer marker , it does not mean that other family members of the family will definitely get the disease . |
| 369 | Moreover , there is currently no legal protection against genetic discrimination in most parts of the world . |
| 370 | Thus , a dilemma arises in whether the carrier should be obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 371 | This can in turn cause social issues like genetic discrimination in the terms of employment and insurance ( Bereano , 2000 ) . |
| 372 | Motion : " Should a carrier of a known genetic risk be obligated to tell his or her relatives ? |
| 373 | However , one person can not either control his genetic structure or prevent the disorder himself , therefore , it is unfair to refuse his interest . |
| 374 | However , it would be ridiculous for relatives to know that they might also face this particular genetic disease in the future from the individual 's results since everyone has a unique genome unless they are twins . |
| 375 | In my opinion , in the high technology society we are living in , we do not have the final say in revealing of our genetic results to the public . |
| 376 | All in all , in my opinion , in the high technology society we are living in , we do not have the final say in revealing of our genetic results to the public . |
| 377 | Genetic disorders are caused by the mutation of a gene ( Letsou , 2009 ) .When a normal gene is mutated , its stability will no longer be maintained . |
| 378 | It has been speculated that discrimination occurs during employment and the application of health insurance when genetic information lands in the hands of the employers and insurance companies ( Lee , 2005 ) . |
| 379 | Besides , it is disadvantageous for getting a job with results showing that an individual is genetically inferior . |
| 380 | In addition , if they already have children and their children also have such pathogenic genes through heredity , who should be responsible for these children 's health problems ? |
| 381 | In fact , everyone has to be responsible for the health of his or her family and himself or herself , hence , the individual requesting genetic testing should not have the final say in whether to reveal the testing results ; these results should be made known to their relatives . |
| 382 | After knowing the result , a couple should find ways to treat the disease before they give birth to a child because the child has a big possibility to have the gene which is dangerous for his or her future ( Otto 2007 ) . |
| 383 | Additionally , genetic testing is not a mature technique at present and the interpretation of such results is very complicated and variable ( Rennie , 1994 ) . |
| 384 | ( Holtzman , 1996 ) . Secondly , information from genetic testing of individuals with genetic susceptibilities is used by employers and insurance companies to deny them employment as well as to grant lower insurance coverage . |
| 385 | These modified genes can be unstable . |
| 386 | Conversely , siblings of the subjects should be told immediately as they may carry the same genetic disease as the subjects' . |
| 387 | Secondly , social problems such as genetic discrimination tend to be implemented . |

| 0 | Nonetheless , there are problems that significantly hamper the engineering design process for innovation . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Hence the process of engineering design is hampered by the lack of resource not only at stages of research and development , but also in the implementation of the innovation . |
| 2 | These problems hampered the process of engineering design for innovation . |
| 3 | However , the two most disturbing problems that may hamper engineering design processes for innovations are the inability of engineers to generate multiple solutions to convince their superior to implement their products or ideas and the failure of constantly creating a product that is in demand . |
| 4 | As a result of the problems that hamper the engineering design process for innovation , many fail to identify unmet needs of the market , causing the market to suffer . |
| 5 | A large number of the creative ideas have failed in their engineering design processes because there are some problems in Singapore which may significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 6 | These problems will significantly hamper our engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 7 | Another main problem that will hamper the engineering design process will be the lack of resources in terms of knowledge , raw material and technology . |
| 8 | Firstly , the lack of resources support could significantly hamper the research and development process in engineering design for innovations . |
| 9 | In conclusion , educational problems limit engineering skills and cause inconvenience for researchers under university or institutions to identify problems and commercialize their product . |
| 10 | Lots of problems existing in different areas hamper the engineering design processes for innovation . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Among these challenges , the shortages of investment and skilled workers actually hamper engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 12 | However ; there exist some problems that hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 13 | In sum , a society which is less receptive to new ideas and innovative products could lead to the hampering of engineering processes for innovation . |
| 14 | On the other hand , a lack of creativity and innovation by engineers leads to a lack of knowledgeable engineers to design a product . |
| 15 | But in real life many problems hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 16 | Problems hampering engineering design processes for innovation |
| 17 | The impact of having a lack of creativity during the engineering design process is severe as the process requires the generation of multiple solutions . |
| 18 | However , the engineering design processes for innovation might be hampered because of different problems that are faced during different phases of the process . |
| 19 | However , I think problems like the fixed mindset of the person and the lack of resources may hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 20 | Indirectly , insufficient human resources in engineering field might llead to a poor economy , due to a lack of progression in the engineering field . |
| 21 | In conclusion , capital cost and the shortage of human resources are two problems which will significantly hamper engineering design process innovation . This may result in the commercialization stage being unable to realise . |
| 22 | In spite of such facts , however , there are still some problems appearing in our country which hamper engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 23 | This makes it difficult to implement innovations , especially in relation to engineering design . |
| 24 | Usually , engineers face difficulty in designing a product or coming out with ideas demanded by the public . |
| 25 | In conclusion , even though we realize the importance of engineering design processes in innovation , there are still problems like rising costs and population scarcity that hinders the progress of the engineering process . |
| 26 | However , there are still many problems hampering engineering design process for innovations . |
| 27 | In your home country some problems ( may ) significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 28 | Secondly , the other problem that restricts engineering design is the lack of confidence to implement ideas or products that are in demand . |
| 29 | Another problem that poses obstacles to innovation in engineering in China may be the lack of funds from the government for research and development ( R&D ) , thus engineers are hardly attracted to the R&D industry and the lack of funds to implement their new ideas . |
| 30 | Besides the above two problems , lack of communication in engineering society also discourages the generation of innovative ideas . |
| 31 | Another problem that might hamper engineering design processes for innovations would be insufficient resources . |
| 32 | In Singapore there are many constraints which hamper the engineering process for innovations . |
| 33 | However , even if the engineers have received financial support from the government or other organisations , the funding may be limited sometimes due to long term processes which involve problem solving methodology and testing for the innovative design to be carried out . |
| 34 | Another obstacle is the unsatisfactory social conditions for engineers to develop their knowledge and thoughts . |
| 35 | The local society does not have a positive attitude in accepting new engineering innovations and this could affect the materialization stage of the engineering process for innovation . |
| 36 | Firstly , a small economic market can greatly hinder a country 's engineering design process for innovation . |
| 37 | Another major problem that engineers might face in Singapore is that people are less receptive to innovations and ideas as compared to Western countries . |
| 38 | And in the meantime , our lack of experience and development in engineering and innovation continues to pose a problem for aspiring engineers , as well as design processes for innovations . |
| 39 | In conclusion , the two problems discussed may significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 40 | Therefore , the insufficiency of scientific fund support also significantly hinders the engineering design process for innovations . |
| 41 | An engineer might have difficulties in interpreting solutions and making decisions during the design process if he or she lacks creativity . |
| 42 | Problems Hampering Engineering Design Process for Innovations |
| 43 | Another serious problem that hampers the engineering design process for innovations is the insufficiency of scientific fund support . |
| 44 | Although there are problems and obstacles , the development in engineering design for innovations is crucial and essential . |
| 45 | Moreover , the policy on science and engineering also affects the process of engineering application . Due to insufficient investment in research and engineering practice . |
| 46 | If engineers lack creativity and innovation , it would be difficult for them to and make improvements . |
| 47 | However , there are many problems that will hinder the engineering design process . |
| 48 | However , there are still numerous factors which hamper the innovation of engineering design in my country . |
| 49 | Thus the stage of testing and implementing solutions during the engineering design process is greatly hampered |
| 50 | In all , the problems mentioned above may potentially hamper local engineers from coming up with good ideas and innovations . |
| 51 | Although the improvement is apparent , there are still a number of problems hampering engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 52 | However , during such a tedious process , there are bound to be problems that may hamper the whole engineering design process . |
| 53 | Aside from the lack of resources for the research and development stage , difficulties may be faced in finding a suitable target group for the innovation result within the country . |
| 54 | However , while there is a highly increasing demand for engineers with acuity of design , even in the education system of my own country , there are two major setbacks for engineering students getting adequate design skills : the lack of practice in school and the insufficiency of co-curricular activities . |
| 55 | These rules and regulations are especially strict in Singapore . As a result engineering is often restricted by these limitations which could hamper some bold yet useful innovation ideas . |
| 56 | It is necessary to recognize that the entire process is fraught with numerous difficulties which could impede an engineer 's creativity . |
| 57 | However , there are still some problems hampering engineering design to some extent . |
| 58 | To conclude , there are many existing problems hampering engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 59 | I think it is because of lacking innovations in engineering designs . |
| 60 | In conclusion , the progress of engineering design is being disrupted by the mindset of the local society and the lack of engineers . |
| 61 | This trend will impede the engineering design process at the brainstorming and selection of solution stages . |
| 62 | Insufficient resources would mean , not having enough raw materials or materials needed for the engineering innovation design process . |
| 63 | As for some young but creative engineers or scientists , it may be very hard for them to get financial support to carry on their own research , which will stifle their creativity and give them no place to fulfill their potentials . |
| 64 | However , some obstacles may obstruct the innovative engineering design processes . |
| 65 | However , the unprecedentedly rapid economic growth , driven by manufacturing and export industry , probably prevents people from discovering the problems that may impede engineering design process for innovation . |
| 66 | Even nowadays there are still some problems existing which hamper the engineering design process . |
| 67 | In Singapore , there are various problems that may significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 68 | Insufficient funds and resources are two problems that may significantly hinder engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 69 | In Singapore , there are problems that hamper engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 70 | This problem significantly discourages engineers from making more effort to do research and design , and they have little motivation to work hard . |
| 71 | In conclusion , the problems from education system and technology funding have hampered the development of engineering design process of innovation for a long time . |
| 72 | Besides , the education system introduced leads to a lack of creativity and innovation by engineers . |
| 73 | In fact , the lack of professionals in engineering fields has resulted in the failure of some research . |
| 74 | This is a potential problem which would hamper engineering design processes . |
| 75 | Clearly , the lack of creativity and the passive attitude of Singaporeans have hindered the first stage of the engineering design process . |
| 76 | Often , inventors who use their engineering talents to come up with innovative products fail to secure funding . |
| 77 | Low technological standard is one of the significant factors which hamper engineering design processes . |
| 78 | These technical problems have caused slow progression of development of engineering design . |
| 79 | In Creative Technology , time constraint has significantly hampered its engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 80 | It is in this respect our mindsets greatly impede on the philosophy of Engineering , and hence pose a problem on the designing process for innovations . |
| 81 | There are many social and economic factors in Singapore that are hampering the country 's engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 82 | In conclusion , it is clear that there are many factors that will hamper engineering design process for innovation . |
| 83 | Otherwise , most of the engineering design for innovation could be a failure |
| 84 | The higher cost makes it expensive for engineering designing processes . Hence groups that do not have funding or sufficient funding will be held back . |
| 85 | Even though the country recognises the importance of such progress , there are still some problems that significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 86 | Hence the lack of resources adds hindrance to the process of innovation . |
| 87 | The main problem , however , is time constraint and this problem can be seen to significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations in companies , such as Creative Technology . |
| 88 | Another root problem that hampers engineering design process is the lack of education for engineers about engineering design knowledge during their tertiary education . |
| 89 | Due to poor quality research facilities and the imperfect way of teaching , students can not gain enough skills to become a qualified engineer . |
| 90 | Since it is more expensive to conduct creative engineering research , it is inevitable that there would be a slight reluctance in contributing more assets to engineering design on the part of the government ; hence , the actual support given by the government is weak . |
| 91 | In conclusion , some problems may significantly hinder engineering design processes for innovations , but Singapore is trying its best to solve these problems . |
| 92 | This is one of the reasons why engineering design process is not all that easy in Singapore . |
| 93 | In engineering design processes , two of the problems that will hamper the design process would be the lack of funds and resources . |
| 94 | As of such , these two problems can really hinder the growth of engineers in Singapore . |
| 95 | All of these make the development of engineering design stuck in a difficult situation . |
| 96 | One is that some engineering designs do not meet the needs of the market . |
| 97 | In conclusion , the rigid education system and the governments limited incentives for innovations limit the number of innovative engineers and hinder the realization of innovative ideas if any . |
| 98 | This results in a delay of the testing of the engineering design which slows down the whole engineering design process . |
| 99 | The second matter that significantly hampers engineering design processes for innovations in my home country is the limitation of human resources for designing new products . |
| 100 | Therefore , with this problem in mind , local engineers often face challenges that require them to come up with innovations and create products that not only appeal to the younger generation of Singaporeans but also to cater to the aging population . |
| 101 | Moreover , our lack of establishment in engineering research and development may pose further problems to the Engineering Design Process . |
| 102 | There are two major problems which hamper engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 103 | As we understand the relevance and importance of engineering design , we will come to realize that in reality there are several factors that prevent the progress of engineering design . |
| 104 | Therefore , time constraint is the main problem that may significantly hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 105 | With all these factors playing a role , the engineering design and innovation in India is significantly hampered . |
| 106 | Most significantly , because of the insufficient number of engineers in the country , we are just not able to get enough manpower to accomplish the design process . |
| 107 | These two main factors , lacking in manpower and materials had hindered to the progress of the engineering design process . |
| 108 | Engineers spend a lot of effort in developing these products , but the final products that they design may not be of popular demand . |
| 109 | The lack of creativity will definitely lead to problems faced by engineers when it comes to innovating new products . |
| 110 | Although much effort and funding has been spent on R&D , some problems still exist to significantly hinder engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 111 | In Singapore , there are problems which could hamper the local engineering design process for innovations . |
| 112 | The lacks of land area to build suitable facilities to test products is an obstruction to engineers . |
| 113 | This is the big problem that hampers the thinking stage of engineering design processes for Innovation . |
| 114 | The above-mentioned problems will have severe ramifications on the engineering design process . |
| 115 | This lack of government support means , engineers will not be able to get resources , raw materials , precise equipment for research during engineering design process . |
| 116 | People lack knowledge and information in engineering design , thus they are not able to deal with current and future practical problems . |
| 117 | These vectors hamper engineering design process significantly . |
| 118 | The stage of analysis of design solution has been constrained because of limited knowledge and lack of professionals . |
| 119 | As a result , the field of engineering design is slow in progress and there are still a lot of complex problems left unsolved . |
| 120 | Next , the other main problem is the lack of government support in this area , as the resources in the engineering design process for innovation and the expertise in this area are very limited in my home country . |
| 121 | The lack of knowledge prevents engineers in Singapore from coming out with brand new ideas for innovations . |
| 122 | Now , this situation has become a problem for the nation because the present generation lacks creativity and innovation . |
| 123 | Therefore , the process will most likely be hampered due to the lack of creativity in our workforce . |
| 124 | Two problems that may hamper engineering design processes for innovations in my home country . |
| 125 | This limits engineers ' ideas when they are designing products . |
| 126 | In conclusion , education problems and economy problems hinder the development of design technology . |
| 127 | These might be the two factors hindering local engineers from producing potentially creative innovations . |
| 128 | The lack of funds can lead to the disruption of the progress of an engineering design process . |
| 129 | However , in Singapore , engineers will find that they will meet some problems that may hamper the design process . |
| 130 | Although different ways of solutions may be found , not all are practical , so engineers also need to analyze and select a suitable solution . |
| 131 | Therefore , innovation is discouraged because of lack of protection for intellectual property in society . |
| 132 | Engineers might also find it difficult to think of various approaches to tackle the problem , and also to use analytical skills to decide on the best method to solve the problem . |
| 133 | This problem curbs the development of engineering design processes at the start . |
| 134 | In conclusion , corruption in the political system and the lack of creativity by engineers , , significantly hampers the engineering design process . |
| 135 | Another frustrating factor that hampers the designing process of innovation comes from decision makers ' worries about being unable to take up the market in time . |
| 136 | This scenario is common and it is preventing engineers from doing research and development for a given problem . |
| 137 | Due to her limitations , innovations in some areas are restricted since the accessibility to resources would be too difficult and pose potential problems . |
| 138 | The environment makes it hard for companies to allocate resources for innovation , and at the same time , keep the company 's competitive edge in the market . |
| 139 | It also implies that an engineering design often requires many failed attempts before a breakthrough is obtained . |
| 140 | , technology will not be moving in such a fast pace and may be hampered by the lack of innovation from a lower demand in researchers and engineers . |
| 141 | As a result , during the research stage of an engineering process , a lack of materials and funding could cause the designing process to fall through . |
| 142 | In many companies , brilliant and capable engineers were often denied the opportunity to express their ideas through innovation . |
| 143 | The engineering design process will be disturbed when there is not enough money to buy relevant resources required . |
| 144 | Gathering pertinent information is a crucial stage in engineering design processes ; however , it is neglected quite often . |
| 145 | However , such choices becomes harmful in the long run as the innovative skills of university students or researchers will deteriorate . |
| 146 | This leads to factors such as , a limited pool of local talents , a small local market and a lack of volunteers willing to try out new innovations ; all of which will affect the engineering design process . |
| 147 | In the current stage , political environment and people 's mindset are two of the problems that may hamper engineering design process for innovation . |
| 148 | If the customer base for the new innovation is too small , investors will be less willing to provide funds to fund research and development of new innovations and products , therefore affecting the whole design process . |
| 149 | However , in my home country , many problems exist as huge barriers for engineers to apply their innovative ideas to practice . |
| 150 | Due to insufficient funding many new engineering products and ideas face difficulties in marketing , advertising which is required to reach to the masses of the population . |
| 151 | When solving a design problem , one may encounter problems that will hamper the design process . |
| 152 | However , these designs seem to be too complex and complicated for engineers to work with . |
| 153 | Firstly , in the aspect of generating multiple solutions , engineers often face the problems of lack of funds and inability to convince their superior that their idea is feasible . |
| 154 | Engineering design processes are tedious , complex and require much creativity for the generation of new ideas . |
| 155 | This is an underlying problem as these kids who will grow up to be engineers will not be able to come up with exciting innovations . |
| 156 | This apparently would affect the operation of innovation as financing resources is the biggest concern in an innovation process . |
| 157 | The engineering design process will be further delayed because of this extra effort required . |
| 158 | The reason why my country does not make a big progress in innovation area is because of the weakness in education system and limitation in economic support . |
| 159 | In conclusion I believe lack of financial resources especially low amounts of government spending and migrations of professionals are the two main reasons that cause lack of product innovation and idea generation in the field of engineering in Sri Lanka . |
| 160 | There are several issues that may affect negatively an engineering design process . |
| 161 | There are two main causes for this lack of acceptance from the society which hampered the engineering design process for innovation : limitations and ownerships . |
| 162 | A small economic market is preventing engineers and designers from defining problems and conducting research as they fear it will most likely be non-profitable . |
| 163 | The other problem faced by Singapore is the lack of courage for Singapore engineers to come out with a creative and new innovation . |
| 164 | Last but not least , the engineering design process still needs gradual improvements to truly meet people 's need . |
| 165 | As such , people often find it difficult to associate psychology with engineering . |
| 166 | In fact , the lack of entrepreneurship skills has caused missing stages in the process of engineering design for innovations . |
| 167 | Another problem faced by engineers in Singapore is the limitations in resources . |
| 168 | If engineers do not come up with new ideas , they can not find the best solution for different problems . |
| 169 | At the same time , the government and the companies will doubt 'whether ' this engineering design is workable or not if it takes too long to progress . |
| 170 | Firstly , many companies lack money to support innovations in their product design . |
| 171 | Two problems have been identified which might hamper creativeness in engineers . |
| 172 | In the process of engineering design for innovation , there is no doubt that a lot of problems and difficulties will be faced . |
| 173 | Without enough creativity , local engineers are bound to face problems in their course of work , which is mainly innovating . |
| 174 | There are two main problems hampering engineering design ; consequently they affect some stages of this process as well |
| 175 | These problems in academic circle are impeding engineering design . |
| 176 | This has resulted in the low demand for locally designed products and often discourages engineers to continue in their innovations . |
| 177 | The need for state-of-the-art weaponry and stealth vehicles has posed a tough problem to engineers as well . |
| 178 | Due to the lack of funds there is money to hire research engineering , research equipment and materials on experiment . |
| 179 | It will cost more and it will be hard for the organization in order to be in Singapore to proceed with the engineering innovation process . |
| 180 | As a result , in the long run , the problems will make a bad effect on the development of science and technology . |
| 181 | As a result , the innovation process is interrupted at the stage of research and development with the absence of support and attention . |
| 182 | In Singapore , there are actually many issues to consider for an engineer in the engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 183 | This will in fact slow down the process of innovation as the organizations in Singapore have to think of ways to increase their innovation budgets to pay the engineers . |
| 184 | At the same time , without enough support , development of engineering design would proceed slowly . |
| 185 | Engineers plying their trades in Singapore , however , will face two major problems which are potentially critical in the future development of the city-state . |
| 186 | There are certain problems which are still obstructing those processes , two of them are the weak law protection of patent registration and the lack of entrepreneurship skills . |
| 187 | Consequently , these two reasons have caused a lack of development in engineering design process . |
| 188 | For those who successfully designed their products , they are met with another problem-- the lack of facilities to test their products and the inflexibility of the Government 's regulations . |
| 189 | However , the extent to which these policies help to ease the ageing process remains rather limited due to the limitations of the policies . |
| 190 | In real life , the theories and graphical models formulated on computers can not be fully achieved and this is a common problem in most engineering innovations . |
| 191 | Another problem is the lagging of technology transfer , which is a headache for a lot of research departments . |
| 192 | The most serious problem which hampers the innovation process is that the technological base is relatively lower than the developed world . |
| 193 | The other problem which hampers the engineering design processes for Innovation is the education system . |
| 194 | In conclusion , these two main problems basically hamper the research and development areas of engineering design process , Singapore engineers can only at the moment upgrade or modifies existing innovations . |
| 195 | However it is hard to say whether we can solve the engineering problems by simply improving the psychological problems , since for many engineering incidences the technical problems had occupied an overwhelming part . |
| 196 | To sum up , two main problems hamper engineering design processes , namely low technological standards and intellectual property rights . |
| 197 | The above example was an illustration of lack of sufficient funds to keep the innovation design going . |
| 198 | Despite her huge success in many areas , Singapore does face problems which hamper engineering design processes for innovations . |
| 199 | Such a rigid education system has significantly hindered students ' creativity and poorly equipped them to apply knowledge in the real world . |
| 200 | Technology at that time limited the designing of ICE , thus causing the design failure . |
| 201 | Some of common problems in the research sector are lack of skilled labour , time constraint and limited . |
| 202 | First , it prevents students from detecting real problems by themselves which is essential in the first step of engineering design . |
| 203 | In conclusion , the two main factors contributing to the hampering of engineering design processes for innovations in Singapore are Singapore 's small economic market and its population holding a resistance to change . |
| 204 | In conclusion , Singapore 's unique size and state of available resources are obstacles in the engineering design process . |
| 205 | This economic downturn led to great decline in the engineering sector field especially in engineering design process . |
| 206 | All the above problems are related to people 's attitudes towards engineering design and the political situation for engineering innovations , implying the difficulties in improving engineering design . |
| 207 | In conjunction to this , companies are not willing to take risks to fund the research and development of engineers . |
| 208 | Another effect is demotivation of young engineers from designing new products , because the rewards the society gives them is not equal to their long-time hardwork . |
| 209 | However , technological restraints like limited resources have been a set back for hybrid users . |
| 210 | In conclusion , I do think that government policies and environmental issues will hinder the engineering design for innovation . |
| 211 | First of all , the special political environment many account for the stalling of some stages of the whole process , such as the stage of recognizing a need or problem and the stage of innovation-development . |
| 212 | Hence , we lack money to improve our facilities for research such as well-equipped laboratories and other highly technological instruments . |
| 213 | Such frame of mind hinders the progression of innovation . |
| 214 | Yet , as a powerful technology , many applications of this technology have been limited due to political , environmental and economical factors . |
| 215 | In fact , this will cause engineering design processes to be interrupted halfway because of lack of highly technological instruments . |
| 216 | Similarly , Singapore is currently facing problems that hamper its ambition of coming up with great innovations . |
| 217 | Furthermore , talented people are hard to be attracted as there is no good working environment and no sufficient capital for those skilled people to carry out their researches . |
| 218 | The problems that affect engineering design |
| 219 | Engineering design is a meaningful work but requires lots of sacrifice and devotion since it ca n't generate benefits promplty and directly . |
| 220 | Then , another question arises , what hampers innovations in engineering design ? |
| 221 | In brief , what impedes engineering process design for innovation in my country 's education system is the lack of practice and co-curricular skills . |
| 222 | When an engineer works hard to create an innovative or creative design projects , their works are delayed or rejected due to political corruption & misunderstanding between political parties . |
| 223 | The mindset of resistance to change in Singaporeans greatly prevents good innovative ideas and the acceptance of such ideas . |
| 224 | ( India Business Blog , n.d. ) In many developing countries , there will be some kind of problems or obstacles that may hamper engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 225 | " Despite having a high GDP and a pool of savvy engineers , there are still quite a number of problems in Singapore that are hampering its engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 226 | As such , innovations in the contentious areas are often restricted . |
| 227 | After all the above , we can see the improper model and the unsatisfactory social conditions really act as obstacles to innovative engineering designs . |
| 228 | All in all , it is the low level of technological base and the lack of excellent researchers that significantly hamper the whole process for innovation . |
| 229 | In Singaporengapore , the local society and education system produces problems that hinder the usage of the engineering design process . |
| 230 | Another problem we face in Singapore is the lack of experience our country has in the innovative engineering field . |
| 231 | First , because of the mode of education , most engineers and scientists are relatively weak in creativity . |
| 232 | This situation would be problematic during the definition of problem stage of engineering design process . |
| 233 | As a result , engineers have little motivation to innovate . |
| 234 | Firstly , Singapore engineers lack the creativity and it might be due to the kind of education system in Singapore . |
| 235 | Two major problems among these are : the low acceptance of engineering design and the complex procedures of verification for licensing for engineering projects . |
| 236 | The exam-orientated education system and the undesirable climate in the academic circle are two of the most serious ones which affect engineers ' motivation and capacities during the process . |
| 237 | Therefore , with this problem local engineers are bound to face problems while innovating . |
| 238 | Therefore , as they do not have structured programmes regarding research and technology , there are only a few job opportunities in the science and technology sector , further discouraging engineers to innovate . |
| 239 | Singapore 's small economic market and its population holding a resistance to change have some bearing on the engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 240 | Students have been treated in a way that discouraged independent thought and learning processes , thus indirectly hindering their ability to analyze and interpret problems due to a lack of creativity . |
| 241 | In a nutshell , the two main problems what hamper the engineering design processes for Innovation in my home country are corruption , which will probably kill the innovation in the process of execution , and education , which makes the youth less creative that their peers in other countries . |
| 242 | However , if the engineers are to stick to their original design , the cost of the end product will be high . |
| 243 | Thus , engineers are not capable to come up with solution to problems although they have brilliant ideas . |
| 244 | Firstly , insufficient funding will lead to a slower pace in the innovating progress . |
| 245 | Lastly , for engineers , designing a safe product is a big concern . |
| 246 | This especially applies to places where educational resources are limited due to geographic barriers . |
| 247 | Therefore , unlike US and developed European countries , not much capital can be spared for engineering design processes for innovations , which causes the capital problem . |
| 248 | The improper education model and the unsatisfying experimental conditions stand out among many reasons . |
| 249 | In addition , the undesirable climate in the academic circle is hampering innovations even more seriously . |
| 250 | Children who later grow up into adults do not do not utilize their creativity , which may be helpful in the engineering design process . |
| 251 | One problem faced by engineering design in Singapore is the various restrictions due to the socio-political system of the country . |
| 252 | In this way , the lack of money actually affects the stage of process for innovation . |
| 253 | Developing new inventions requires substantial funding , so engineers in China are faced with the difficulty of insufficient funding for innovating industries . |
| 254 | This will slow the development of solar technology and the innovation of it . |
| 255 | The completion of the process might be slowed down due to financial constraint and the parties involved in the engineering design process might have to seek financial help . |
| 256 | Although Singapore has the means to encompass these above processes to produce innovative design , certain problems arise to hamper our design processes . |
| 257 | Furthermore due to lack of the technology system in my country a lot high technology research have to be postponed . |
| 258 | However , limitations of the technology and failures of publicity resulted in a weak adoption of the new technology . |
| 259 | Insufficient funds may not allow the engineering design process to proceed . |
| 260 | In Singapore , the small elastic market and the lack of facilities and flexibility for product testing may hamper the design process . |
| 261 | The second problem that hinders engineering design processes for innovations is that Singaporeans , are not as creative as our counterparts , for example the Americans , Japanese and Taiwanese . |
| 262 | Engineers have to understand why current technology has failed to solve the water shortage , and the oversights of engineers of the previous technology . |
| 263 | So , what are the problems in India that prevent engineers from their design processes for innovations ? |
| 264 | But due to the nature of these cells , scientists now face both technological and scientific problems which hinders them from unleashing the full potential of these cells . |
| 265 | The environment for research is bad in China because firstly , there is not enough capital given to do research . |
| 266 | A workforce that is educated in Singapore will probably suffer as they are not used to answering design questions while they are studying . |
| 267 | Public spending should also be limited because areas like R&D need more funds to ensure constant progress of the nation . |
| 268 | The mismatch between low levels of technological development on the one hand , and the enormous velocity of the catch-up process on the other makes companies unwilling to innovate on their own . |
| 269 | But apart from the technical factor , the development of the videophone was mainly limited by some social and economic factors . |
| 270 | The public can not get better living standard because of political corruption & political parties as they stop the engineer 's projects & ideas for better living lifestyle . |
| 271 | This means that it is rather difficult to have a centralised authority to control and regulate private engineering design sectors . |
| 272 | The possible reasons that Singapore lacked the initiative to come out with a brand new product could lie in the lack of resources support and the general mindset of Singaporeans . |
| 273 | Factors That Hamper the Innovation of Engineering Design |
| 274 | One is that students lack innovative thinking . |
| 275 | One possible factor that might hamper such creativity is our educational system . |
| 276 | The lack of skilled labour in the project caused it to be at the research stage of the innovation process . |
| 277 | In Singapore , there are two problems that many Singapore engineers may face when designing and innovating . |
| 278 | The second reason that I feel makes it difficult for new engineering innovations to be successful is the large number of professionally qualified Sri Lankans migrating to other countries . |
| 279 | As a result of the defect in invention law , the production invented by scientists can not be protected very well . |
| 280 | In Singapore , one of the problems that engineers might face during the engineering design process is that Singapore 's education system is rigid . |
| 281 | Hence , it is imperative to address the issue of engineers unable to convince their superior to implement their products or ideas . |
| 282 | Actually , decentralization of human capital and delayed financial support hamper the stage of research and development to quite a large extent . |
| 283 | In fact , problems often occur during the two most critical parts of the designing process which lie during the research and development sections . |
| 284 | So the problems in education system is the main obstacle to the engineering design process . |
| 285 | This frame of mind gradually prevents Singaporeans from having the courage to venture into the unknown which is required for innovation . |
| 286 | Technology is often the limiting factor when it comes to designing a sophisticated medical device . |
| 287 | Title : Two Problems that Significantly Hamper Engineering Design Processes For Innovations and Their Effects . |
| 288 | As such , we face several problems that are not encountered by other nations , like inadequate technologically inclined talents and insufficient support from citizens , resulting in adverse societal attitude towards failure . |
| 289 | Electric cars have a very obvious shortage in their technical design . |
| 290 | So in this way , the impetus for designing and processing innovations has been greatly encumbered . |
| 291 | Problems do occur in Singapore during each and every innovating design by the engineers . |
| 292 | Some people find it difficult to do so and interestingly enough , they even take courses to learn to be creative . |
| 293 | Innovations are restricted by the many rules and regulations the country imposed , and sometimes the over emphasis of specific policies which causes development of ideas in an irrelevant area to be neglected . |
| 294 | For example , the investment and attention that the nation puts on technology research and engineering are deficient ( Xin , 2005 ) . |
| 295 | In Singapore , there are some problems which hamper certain stages of the design process . |
| 296 | There lie two major hurdles , the small population size and the lack of natural resources , to engineering design process in Singapore . |
| 297 | A country ruled under such a government will certainly enjoy very limited development in terms of creativity and innovation . |
| 298 | Although the knowledge and technological breakthroughs we accumulated through ages have provided humans with aolid foundation for putting our ideas into practice , there still exists many inevitable factors due to the advancing capitalism which deter the process of innovation . |
| 299 | In the engineering of the eco-car , it is also evident that the lack of resources poses a great deal of challenges to the team of NUS students , having to import the materials outside of Singapore . |
| 300 | But now , there are two factors hampering the innovative design process . |
| 301 | Disease has been a great concern for humans from a very long time ago , but medical system seems not to be enough in the fight with countless threats that steals many human lives .There are many limitations that can only be surpassed by the magic of engineers ' technology . |
| 302 | To sum up , the lack of skilled labour and the inability to re-create computer simulation in real life are not the only 2 problems commonly faced in the engineering design process in Singapore . |
| 303 | Given the land constraints , it is definitely a costly as well as non-feasible innovation and only time will tell if this technology can be upgraded into something that can be fitted into a society like Singapore . |
| 304 | The first problem is that the education system does not allow students to express themselves freely , causing students to be less curious and therefore not creative . |
| 305 | Another serious problem for engineering design is the complex verification procedures for licensing for engineering projects due to the incomplete law system . |
| 306 | Firstly , the problem of the system of education has always been an obstacle for many aspects , especially in Engineering where creativity and innovation should be privileged , where the personal and original opinion should be highly respected , that is why we have to analyze to its core . |
| 307 | Even if passionate engineers get together and plan to launch a project , it is very difficult to get sponsorship . |
| 308 | Therefore this is the main reason why technological inventions may have not ease the aging process in Singapore . |
| 309 | Just in this way , corruption hampers the execution stage of engineering design processes for Innovation , killing numerous of engineering design processes for innovation . |
| 310 | Therefore , it would take quite some time to gear local engineers towards an innovative mindset . |
| 311 | Though engineering design is considerably well established in the country , some practical problems unclear meaning . |
| 312 | Among all these socially determined resistance to the way of innovation , one fatally significant phenomenon is the unfair competition between monopolies and other less competent companies . |
| 313 | Although Xerox failed to transfer those technologies to the marketplace due to its poor commercial strategies , it is significantly meaningful that in a short time , Xerox PARC attained so many technological breakthroughs that were adopted later . |
| 314 | The long shipping time and greater cost due to importing of raw materials delayed the engineering design process as they only had a plan of the race car but no chance to physically fabricate the parts and build the car , while the raw materials were still on their way to Singapore Another problem which could greatly affect the engineering process for designing is a lack of funding . |
| 315 | The researchers of the innovation may receive poor feedback in the prior market research , or someone may even regard the researchers as idiots . |
| 316 | In the first stage of the engineering design process--define the problem , people need an active mind to design problem , but many students under the examination-oriented education system only know how to use their knowledge to answer the question on the examination paper , they do not know how to use knowledge to solve the real problems . |
| 317 | Engineers can not provide good services to the public when corruption is involved . |
| 318 | As a result , there is usually lack of creativity in the students produced through this system . |
| 319 | The two problems will be elaborated on how they impact the engineering process for innovations . |
| 320 | This kind of rote learning makes defining problems , which is the very first step of the engineering design process , hard for Indonesian students . |
| 321 | The psychology of the engineers was that they were not willing to accept the design flaws of the first generation , which was their several years ' work . |
| 322 | These two new obstacles in the 21st century will prove to be a huge challenge to the new generation of engineers in Singapore . |
| 323 | The problems affect engineering design in two aspects , independent innovation and engineering application . |
| 324 | Another very important factor in my opinion is about the lack of researchers . |
| 325 | Secondly , Singaporeans ' refusal to take risks and their contentment with their current lifestyles are also causes for the hampering of engineering design processes for innovation in Singapore . |
| 326 | Therefore , engineers may just stop at gathering pertinent information , and not go into generating multiple solutions as they worry that their products may not be in demand as expected , which again may hamper their design processes for innovation . |
| 327 | So when engineer produce a new product , taking these two aspects of factors into consideration is important . |
| 328 | These problems comprise , insufficient funds , insufficient resources , design may not be aesthetically pleasing to be selected and copyright infringement . |
| 329 | Thereafter , more problems may arise such as finding and building of the parts and materials that are not readily available in Singapore . |
| 330 | This paper will identify two main problems which hamper engineering design processes for innovation and explain their respective impact on certain stages of these processes . |
| 331 | For example , Singapore has limited resources and land area , thus in order to expand their economy , more overseas investments are needed . |
| 332 | Even though it is true that some science discoveries have not been applied efficiently in practice , they are the foundations for future scientists to rely on . |
| 333 | In conclusion , being a small country , Singapore has several issues that may affect the design process of future innovations , particularly its limited land space and its extremely dense population . |
| 334 | Despite having the most advance infrastructure , the best institute for research , Singapore still lacks the resources for certain development . |
| 335 | Obstacles of engineering design processes for Innovation |
| 336 | Compared to other countries , although Singapore does not have much technological constraints , there are still a lot of factors hampering inventions and innovations in Singapore . |
| 337 | The Examination-styled education limits the creativity of potential persons . |
| 338 | In short , although the ageing population and the mindset of Singaporeans may prove to be a challenge to engineers , it is possible to overcome them . |
| 339 | Some may think that science is impractical to apply in daily lives . |
| 340 | Engineers can not carry on with their water projects to solve the problem because different political parties have different views & comments on the projects . |
| 341 | However , these engineers fail to realise that failures are the key to innovation . |
| 342 | As can be seen from the above arguments , due to the limited resources available , and the ever growing number of issues that need to be tended to , it is impossible to ensure that all areas of Singapore 's development are well funded . |
| 343 | This argument is not true as scientists and experts have done research on the materials need to withstand the requirements currently . |
| 344 | Thus innovation among students is discouraged . |
| 345 | Local engineers might be able to think out of the box but they usually dare not venture out of it and apply their ideas to their innovations . |
| 346 | And although we have already found important information through research , we still can not continue analyses of design solutions because of lack of highly technological instruments to be used for investigation . |
| 347 | Secondly , the aging population in Singapore might have contributed to the problems faced by Singapore engineers . |
| 348 | There is no doubt about the trouble caused by such a perspective to engineering projects . |
| 349 | Thus they are the reasons why local Singaporean engineers have failed to come out with a stunning innovation yet . |
| 350 | Lastly , the benefits that the researchers had predicted are not totally beneficial to humans , |
| 351 | However , the efficiency of solar energy was very slow . |
| 352 | On the other hand , Singapore 's small economic market is affecting the second and third building stages in the engineering design processes , " Defining the problem and Conducting research " . |
| 353 | The scope of their thoughts is relatively narrow and hence they usually fail to come up with innovations that are beyond their imagination . |
| 354 | Two Obstacles of Engineering Design Progresses |
| 355 | The similarities of political obstacles in both two steps are that such problems can not be easily solved by the engineering group ; in other words , the political problems are unavoidable to some degree . |
| 356 | A good illustration was the failure of Xerox PARC in bringing their outstanding technologies into the marketplace |
| 357 | It is no wonder that India lags behind in technological innovations and research . |
| 358 | Two main problems are Singapore 's small economic market and its population holding a resistance to change . |
| 359 | Singapore 's small population size affects the initial two stages as well as the final testing stage of the engineering design process . |
| 360 | Another would be Singapore 's dense population that affects the location and structural considerations of the design process . |
| 361 | The Social Barrier for Innovation |
| 362 | Indeed , this was very discouraging for the young minds . |
| 363 | The impact of having a limited number of creative people has resulted in Singapore having to resort to buying foreign-based engineering design equipment from overseas . |
| 364 | Second , the social systems in Singapore are also affecting the generation of solutions in the design process . |
| 365 | Firstly , Examination-styled education cuts down children 's creativity . |
| 366 | In conclusion , the two examples we mentioned have shown that engineering processes can play a big part in the designing phrase of a product . |
| 367 | Examination-styled education kills children 's creativity . |

| 11 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be limited because the issue of an an aging population has become a major problem in the society . |
| 12 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be limited so that it guarantees the welfare of the aged and protects their rights and benefits . |
| 13 | Thus public spending on the aged must not be limited as it is problem . |
| 14 | Hence , with such demands from the aging population , it is imperative that public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 15 | therefore public spending should not be limited because it is still part of the country 's responsibility to take care of the aged population . |
| 16 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be overly limited . |
| 17 | Public spending on the aged should not be limited as the aging population is not one to be looked down upon , however , the other areas of development should not be neglected . |
| 18 | However , public spending on the aged should not be limited as they had made contributions to the economy when they were of working age . |
| 19 | In conclusion , the public spending on the aged should not be limited because it is as important as other areas of the country 's development . |
| 20 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 21 | Therefore , government spending on the aged is important and should not be limited . |
| 22 | Basing the argument on the fact that public spending on aged should not be limited , it is important not to neglect other areas of the country 's development . |
| 23 | Therefore , spending on the elderly should not be limited in order to better them . |
| 24 | Hence , public spending on the aged should not be limited. . |
| 25 | Hence , public spending for the elderly should not be reduced . |
| 26 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be limited in order to divert the money to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 27 | In addition , public spending on the aged should not be limited as people have longer life expectancy as compared to the past and as a result will face larger financial health risks . |
| 28 | Hence , the public spending on the aged should not be limited and be spent on other areas of the country 's development as the money is needed for the healthcare and financial needs needsr the aged . |
| 29 | Hence , public spending should not be limited on the aged . |
| 30 | Thus , public spending on the elderly does provide important benefits to the country and should not be limited . |
| 31 | The elderly have contributed much to the country 's development so public expenditure on the elderly should not be limited . |
| 32 | For this reason , public spending on the aged can not and should not be limited . |
| 33 | As long as the country is financially capable , it is important to ensure that public spending on the aged is not limited so as to support the growing proportion of the aged in the country . |
| 34 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 35 | Hence spending on the aged should not be severely limited . |
| 36 | Therefore , public spending on aged should not be limited . |
| 37 | In conclusion , the amount of money utilized to help to ease the burden of the aged should not be limited . |
| 38 | However , this essay will argue that public spending on the aged should not be limited because not only the elderly will get the benefit from the spending , but indirectly , society will also benefit . |
| 39 | However , although spending on the aged is high , it should not be limited . |
| 40 | So , public spending on the elderly should not be limited . |
| 41 | Therefore , public spending for the aged should not be reduced for the country 's development . |
| 42 | The country 's development should not be hindered just because there is a need for public spending on the aged . |
| 43 | In conclusion , spending on the aged should not be limited due to costly healthcare expenses and limited retirement saving for the future . |
| 44 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should not be limited because they deserve to receive help from the government when they need it as they once helped to contribute to the country 's development . |
| 45 | In a nutshell , the above mentioned arguments and reasons point to the fact that public spending on the aged should not be limited as if it is limited , dire consequences ,such as the country itself might be seen as neglecting the aged , will surface . |
| 46 | In conclusion , public spending should be used on the aged but also not neglecting other problems which hinder the country 's development . |
| 47 | Therefore the government should not limit public spending on the aged as these effects are long-term and permanent to a country 's development . |
| 48 | Although the tendency is for public spending to be increased , especially for the elderly , it does n't mean that other areas of the country 's development have been taken for granted . |
| 49 | As such , my point of view is that the spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 50 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should not be limited because the impacts caused by the limited spending will lead to long run negative impacts on the country 's economy . |
| 51 | Therefore , considering all the various negative impacts in terms of social , economic and cultural factors on the society , I feel that public spending on the aged should not be limited and diverted to use in other areas of the country 's development . |
| 52 | The development of the country is important but public spending on the aged should never be limited under all circumstances . |
| 53 | Public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 54 | To sum up , the government has to assume responsibilities in taking care of the elderly and to ensure that the country is adequately prepared to accept an ageing population ; thus , spending on the aged should not be limited and money should not be diverted into other areas of the country 's development . |
| 55 | As such , public spending on the aged should not be forgone for the development of the country . |
| 56 | Although governments ought to provide financial assistance for the elderly , spending on other sectors of the country should not be neglected . |
| 57 | Thus , this suggests that public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 58 | Despite the government 's consistent spending on the old , public spending on the aged should not be limited but should be used accordingly based on the circumstances . |
| 59 | Thus , in this instance , financing the elderly is an obligation in which public spending should not be cut back just because the aging population is growing at an alarming rate . |
| 60 | Therefore , public spending on the aged is necessary , but we should not eliminate other possibilities that will ease the spending |
| 61 | Public spending on the aged should not be limited although the money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 62 | Critics of my position say that public spending on the aged should not be limited because we need to take into account what the aged have done . |
| 63 | Public spending on the aged should therefore not be limited as investing time and resources to solving aging population eliminates any unnecessary social costs and contributes to the development of the society as a whole , promoting cohesiveness and progress towards a gracious society . |
| 64 | When taking into account all the above factors , I can safely conclude that public spending on the aged should not be limited even though the amount of money can be used to invest on some areas like education , infrastructure and development projects . |
| 65 | Therefore , the expenditure on the elderly should not be restricted just because the other areas of development of the country are assumed to be more important . |
| 66 | In conclusion , public spending on the aged should not be limited just so money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 67 | Public spending on the aged should not be limited in order to divert this money to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 68 | Public spending should not be limited on the vulnerable because the ageing population is becoming a worldwide issue . |
| 69 | Therefore , the government should not limit public spending on the aged population . |
| 70 | Spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 71 | Therefore , even though the aged could greatly benefit from the advancement of healthcare services , public spending on the aged still should not be limited to a large extent so as to ensure sufficient funds to maintain affordable healthcare costs for the elderly . |
| 72 | Public spending on the aged such as health care should not be limited . |
| 73 | On the whole , public spending on the aged should not be made at the expense of the progress of other sectors . |
| 74 | This further infers that there is not enough public spending on the aged . This is another reason why public spending should not be limited on the aged . |
| 75 | However , public spending on the aged should not take a backseat . |
| 76 | However , this does not mean that public spending on the aged should be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 77 | The repercussions and generator of economic growth indicates to us why the public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 78 | Clearly , public spending on the aged should be continued to protect the rights and benefits of the aged . |
| 79 | It can be argued that public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 80 | All these constitute a win-win situation which proves that public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 81 | Therefore public spending on the aged should not be limited and used to divert to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 82 | However , to solve the aging problem is not merely spending more money on the aged . |
| 83 | An aging population should not be the only issue that is given most attention to , as there are other areas of the country 's development that would require public money . |
| 84 | In conclusion , it is not wise to limit public spending on the age given the fact that reliance on government support is necessary to certain groups of the elderly . |
| 85 | The aged should not deprive from public spending due to a lack of social and economic power . |
| 86 | Therefore public spending on the aged should not be limited and should fluctuate according to changes such as impending demographic shift , population growth and healthcare expenses . |
| 87 | Therefore , the government should not reduce public funding on the elderly . |
| 88 | To sum up , the spending on the aged should not be limited as it spurs economic growth and prepares the healthcare industry to combat this pressing issue . |
| 89 | With increasing amount of people turning into old age , the portion of the public spending on the aged should not be decreasing instead . |
| 90 | Therefore public spending is essential , and it should not be limited to assisting the developments of other areas and neglect the major problem of ageing population . |
| 91 | The government should not use the ageing population as a reason to limit public spending as they always encourage productive and healthy living for the elderly people . |
| 92 | However , some may argue that public spending on the aged should n't be limited . |
| 93 | Nevertheless , despite the fact that the ageing population is likely to hurt public finances , it is crucial to recognize the well-being and livelihood of the aged can not be compromised by investing in other developments for economic gains . |
| 94 | Lack of family support , unemployment due to low education level , and social and political impact on the country are some of the factors why public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 95 | The government should not limit the spending on the aged . |
| 96 | It is argued that the government should provide more public assistance to the elderly and not to limit the amount of spending on them . |
| 97 | In conclusion , we should not limit spending on the aged because it is our way to express our thanks to their contributions to the society and this allows the under-privileged old people to live on to maintain economic and social stability . |
| 98 | While a country has to focus on many sectors of development and most likely funding for the aged is not a prime concern , its funding should never be limited . |
| 99 | In a nutshell , limiting public spending on the aged and diverting resources to other areas of the country 's development do not necessarily mean that the government is neglecting the needs of the aged . |
| 100 | Therefore , the government should not limit their public spending on the aged . |
| 101 | While public spending on the aged is vital , it should not comprise other aspects of a country 's growth and development . |
| 102 | Hence , this shows that despite the increase in the spending for the aged , it does not mean that the other areas of development will be neglected as each development plays an important part in the growth of the country . |
| 103 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should not be compromised for the country 's development . |
| 104 | In view of the aging population problem , some people argued that we should not limit public and financial assistance to the elderly because of the increasing number of elderly in an aging population . |
| 105 | Another reason why we should not limit public spending on the older population is because of the fact that the phenomenon of ageing population is expected to continue growing . |
| 106 | To minimize or eliminate the occurrence of this phenomenon there should not be a limit to government spending on the elderly . |
| 107 | Thus , to cater to the needs of the older population , which may also be the largest group of people within the country in the future , it is best not to limit the amount . |
| 108 | I do not agree that public spending on the aged should be limited because spending money on the aged such as facilities and equipment is something that is definitely necessary for a society to be able to advance with no one left behind . |
| 109 | With that to show that the elderly really need that attention and help from the government , we can not forget them and leave them aside but help them in the process of growing old . |
| 110 | There should not be a limit on public spending for the health care of the aged . A balance should be struck in providing for the elderly and concomitantly , driving the country 's development . |
| 111 | Though public spending should be used fully on the aged , there are other areas of concern that the government money should be diverted to , such as the healthcare system . |
| 112 | All in all , the elderly should not be viewed as incapable of providing any further services to the nation . |
| 113 | It will provide the necessary revenues to sustain the social services demanded by an aging and growing population without limiting the budget for the aged . |
| 114 | Therefore , we should not limit public spending on the aged . |
| 115 | Nevertheless , I believe that as long as the government is able to obtain a balance in the areas of public spending , the country 's development can still progress without limiting public spending on the aged . |
| 116 | Hence , the government should not reduce public spending in this area to protect the vulnerability of the aged in terms of health care cost and enabling them to be self-sufficient through elder-friendly facilities in the housing districts . |
| 117 | And obviously , those of old age should also be provided services such as healthcare , insurance , housing...Thus , there is no reason for the government to eliminate its expenditure on this area while many people 's lives can be improved thanks to the support . |
| 118 | In conclusion , although the population of the earth in general is getting aged , which could lead to certain consequences , the government should not be panicked to address that problem in a temporary way by increasing public spending for the aged as much as possible . |
| 119 | This essay will argue that public spending on the aged should not be limited to a large extent . |
| 120 | Even though the world is facing an aging population , public spending should not be spent only on the aged as there are many other areas that need to be taken care of in a country 's development . |
| 121 | However , in my view , placing a limit on public spending for the elderly does not mean that we do not care about the ageing population . |
| 122 | At the same time , cutting back on public spending does not equate to cutting off public spending , with careful planning and considerations , there can still be efficient allocation of money in aiding the aged . |
| 123 | In conclusion , aging population is a global phenomenon , but it does n't imply that the government should waste too much money on finding a solution . |
| 124 | Nevertheless , the government should prioritize its spending and not neglect this aging population . |
| 125 | Public spending should not be limited to helping the elderly with financial difficulties . |
| 126 | In conclusion , the government must plan properly to allocate sufficient resources for the aged , yet not forgetting other aspects of the country . |
| 127 | Public spending on the aged is favorable , but other areas of the country 's development should not be compromised as the resources are limited . |
| 128 | Certainly , such spending will benefit the elderly , but it should not be exclusive to them , for there are other age groups who require assistance in this sector as well . |
| 129 | In conclusion , even though the issue of an aging population is important , other areas that are essential to a country 's development can not be neglected . |
| 130 | ( Peterson , 2001 ) . Also , the effects of having little education , not being able to save during one 's economically active years as well as deteriorating health among the elderly suggest that government should not limit public spending on them ( Friedland and Summer , 2005 ) . Although there are many benefits if money is diverted to other areas of a country 's development , such as education and generation of a more productive workforce , public spending on the aged should not be limited to allow elderly people to age with dignity . |
| 131 | Many people would use these figures to support their claims that public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 132 | While it is important to care for the aged , it is just as important to take into consideration and not neglect other areas of the country 's development . |
| 133 | Thus , public spending on the aged should be maintained to prevent the elderly from becoming less independent . |
| 134 | While it is important to care for the elderly , other areas of the country 's development should also be taken into consideration and not to be neglected , so as to achieve a balance in both the social and economic structure of the country . |
| 135 | Although there is a limit to the national budget and the government has to balance spending in different areas for the country 's development , subsidy for the elderly should not be cut . |
| 136 | Clearly , public spending on the aged should not be limited to money being diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 137 | Pension , subsidy and medical insurance is the main way through which the government can directly help the aged , however , this does not imply that more financial support would definitely lead to better situation . |
| 138 | Hence , spending on pension and retraining for the elderly is essential and should not be limited as it aids them in being financially independent after retirement . |
| 139 | However , this does not mean that we should limit public spending on the aged on the basis of their decreased efficiency and productivity to society . |
| 140 | After all , the aged is not the only area that we should look into when deciding on the allocation of public spending . |
| 141 | However , we must note that certain public spending on the aged can not be compromised and must be put in place by the government in order for the aged to stay healthy and not be a burden to the society . |
| 142 | However , public spending on certain areas of the aged can not be compromised because they are necessary to maintain a healthy ageing population . |
| 143 | Despite it , the government should not only focus on a particular policy in order to resolve the aging problems . |
| 144 | However , this does not mean that we should forgo any spending on the elderly people . |
| 145 | This paper recommends that public spending on the elderly should not be limited so that money can be diverted to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 146 | Nonetheless , we must not fail to help the aged , but we could prioritize the expenditure such that other developments are not shortchanged in this process . |
| 147 | Many may argue that public spending on the aged should not be restricted . |
| 148 | these various aspects show that governments have taken a more well-rounded approach in taking care of the needs of the elderly ; and that public spending on the aged is not and should not be used as a single depiction of how governments can express their concerns towards the elderly . |
| 149 | The elderly did contribute much to the country in their younger age and the society should be obliged to look after them when they are older and not cast them aside . |
| 150 | Thus , the government should not spend too much on the elderly and neglect the rest of society . |
| 151 | Despite all these improvements , it does not mean that every single one of the elderly in the country would be covered and well taken care of . |
| 152 | Furthermore , public spending is made for everyone in the society to enjoy and seek help from and we can not limit the funds for the elderly just because they are not able to produce any returns after enjoying the funds . |
| 153 | Lastly , an ageing population places pressure on the entire nation and everyone should play a part to take care of the aged . |
| 154 | Public spending on the elderly should not be removed . |
| 155 | Even though there is a need to support the aged , the efficiency of the country should not be compromised . |
| 156 | The article Help the aged ( 2009 ) stresses that " the budget must not forget older people " even when governments are in difficult financial situation . |
| 157 | We should not shortchange other groups of society and other developments of the nation , for the needs of the elderly . |
| 158 | Public spending on the aged should not be limited and c . |
| 159 | Instead of merely focusing on public spending for the aged , we should also look at a broader base of challenges that an aging society will bring to us . |
| 160 | Hence in conclusion , aging population is a natural occurrence due to low birth rates and higher life expectancy . Therefore , the government should not reduce on their public spending on the aged , but should instead increase . |
| 161 | While healthcare for the elderly is still important , governments must ensure that other important areas will not get neglected as well . |
| 162 | One of the primary reasons why the government should not set limits on public spending on older people is the aim to create a higher quality of live for almost everyone . |
| 163 | The community should do its part to help the elderly as well , after all the well being of the aged is our responsibility . |
| 164 | Although the government should invest its expenditure on the country 's development , it does not mean that the government should cut pension payments . |
| 165 | However , critics may argue that the elderly have contributed their part to nation building and should not be denied access to government funds . |
| 166 | Firstly , contributions to society made by the elderly can not be ignored . |
| 167 | The extravagant public spending on the aged does not justify its cause . |
| 168 | However caring for the elderly , especially those who can not provide for themselves , is being prioritized as a national issue . |
| 169 | It is not a question to reduce or increase public spending upon the aged population , but it is about keeping a healthy balance in public spending efforts . |
| 170 | Although , the welfare of the senior citizen may be important it should not to an extent where the other areas of the country 's development are being hindered . |
| 171 | A country 's developments should be all-rounded but it should not be achieved at the expense of the health care for the elderly in the society . |
| 172 | This is because the elderly have once contributed to the country 's economy and their well-being should not be overlooked when they age and are unable to work . |
| 173 | This implies that public spending should not be limited as it will be required to subsidise costly healthcare expenses . |
| 174 | Each area must not be neglected , as they have significant contributions in taking care of the aging population . |
| 175 | Hence older people are an enormous neglected resource that should not be forgotten , they should play an active role in society . |
| 176 | Rather than it being limited , public spending on the aged should be referred to as being controlled . |
| 177 | However , it should be made clear to them that public spending on the aged should not be misused . |
| 178 | Before going into further investigation , it is important to bear this in mind that aging process is not as simple as longevity , but associated with one 's ability to contribute to the society and participate in various social activities . |
| 179 | There is too much human factor involved when it comes to whether elders should get more funds to help them cope in their latter days , which should not be part of any equation when other development sectors can benefit instead . |
| 180 | Besides , notwithstanding the agreement upon restrictions on public expenditures on old populations , governments still have to provide necessary supports . |
| 181 | The problems associated with a rapidlyageing population suggest that public spending should not be limited and allocated to other areas . |
| 182 | But it should be remembered that while sympathy and appreciation for the aged must remain , it must not be overdone because there are more than just the aged to look after . |
| 183 | In addition , the aged are still quite vulnerable to diseases and are weak , thus public spending on the aged should not be limited so as to assist them with their healthcare costs . |
| 184 | This also suggests that public spending on on the aged not be limited . |
| 185 | However , it is wrong to regard the aged as a burden , because the aged is a national asset that should not be neglected by the society . |
| 186 | Hence , the government and society would have to do everything that is possible to support and prepare for the inevitable increase in the aging population even at the expense of the country 's development in other areas . |
| 187 | Therefore , the government needs to pay extra attention to taking care of the aged . |
| 188 | This would mean that more resources should be allocated to address the ageing population issue rather than to disregard it . |
| 189 | However , this is not to say that public spending on the aged is the sole factor for the cause of lower investments in other areas of a country 's development , though it is only one of the many factors . |
| 190 | However , some have argued that public spending should not be limited to the aged . |
| 191 | Hence , the public should continue to provide for the aged . |
| 192 | In addition , limiting the public spending on the aged and diverting resources to other areas may not necessarily mean that the government is neglecting the needs of the elderly . |
| 193 | The aged still try their best to create value for society |
| 194 | Therefore , the public should continue to provide for the aged . |
| 195 | Thus , countries should not be overwhelmed by the problems of aging population and overlook other potential problems . |
| 196 | The reason is , the government is not the only form of support for the aged . |
| 197 | The second reason is that public spending is not the only solution to the problem of population aging . |
| 198 | In summary the government should not limit public spending on the elderly and divert it to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 199 | Therefore , we can conclude that we should not limit the public spending on the elderly . |
| 200 | Even if the elderly is able to support themselves , the government should continue to assist through other policies . |
| 201 | Since there is a need for other areas of the country 's development to receive the money and at the same time not neglecting the aged , a compromise must be reached . |
| 202 | It should , however , be emphasized that governments do pay attention to the aged population . |
| 203 | It should be the responsibility of the country to ensure that all the aged , who have contributed to the society , to be properly assisted in their old age . |
| 204 | The contributions of the elderly should not be forgotten , the need to reward them for their efforts is crucial . |
| 205 | Everyone has a responsibility to assist seniors living among us and people need to change their mindset of seeing the elderly as a burden to the society when in actual fact , the elderly are the knowledgeable and experienced resources of the society . |
| 206 | In a nutshell , easing the aging process does n't just stop here with our current findings in the medical as well as other sectors nor with policies created by the government for the aged . |
| 207 | This will take up part of the public spending which should not be limited . |
| 208 | While critics acknowledge the huge budget deficit is caused by the ballooning public spending on healthcare and activities for the aged among many nations , they are against the idea of containing public spending on the aged . |
| 209 | The nation must not be short sighted and seek to solve problems of an ageing population only . |
| 210 | ' Resources available to a country are scarce and limited and the government should not compromise the budget spent on other areas to fund the aged instead . |
| 211 | Public spending should not be limited as the money can be utilized to promote campaigns that encourage the vulnerable to stay employed . |
| 212 | With that said , it is important to address the need of an aging population and not be overly concerned with the fiscal costs of an aging population . |
| 213 | Nonetheless , public spending on healthcare subsidies should neither be reduced nor limited as the elderly still deserve care from society to lead a prolonged life . |
| 214 | They would rather provide more so that all the aged are taken care of , rather than risk any one of them suffering due to insufficient aid . |
| 215 | Yet it is also impossible for the government to limit the spending too much as the elderly should also be entitled to the basic rights and be provided with the basic necessities . |
| 216 | Next , public spending on pension should not be decreased . |
| 217 | Hence , public funds should not be allocated solely to helping the aged . |
| 218 | Now elderly are given more access to the public , but the ultimate choice still lies with them . |
| 219 | Thus , while the government educates the aged about their rights and campaigns about health maintenance methods , the other sectors of society in need of help should not be left out . |
| 220 | As a result , governments should continue to put efforts into dealing with the aging issue . |
| 221 | Therefore we should not limit public spending to a large extent . |
| 222 | With the increase of public spending on the aged , there will be many areas that may be left out if the government focused only on the welfare of the aging population . |
| 223 | 'By shrinking the budget allocated to public spending on the aged does not reduce the cost incurred on the society . |
| 224 | Hence , it is infeasible to limit public spending on the aged . |
| 225 | On the one hand , limiting public spending on the aged does not mean that we can spend less money on the aged . |
| 226 | However an ageing population is not the only concern of any government . |
| 227 | In conclusion , limiting public spending on the aged does not mean ceasing expenditure on them . |
| 228 | However , taking care of the elderly should not be the sole responsibility of the government . |
| 229 | It is in the government 's interest that these elderly do receive an appropriate amount of attention and care so that they will not be deprived of company at old age . |
| 230 | The government must be able to balance the funds so that it will benefit all age groups without compromising anyone . |
| 231 | There should be a level of awareness to help the aged so that they will age with dignity and pride . |
| 232 | It is quite a pity to limit public spending on the elderly |
| 233 | In conclusion , public spending should not be limited and divert to other areas of the country 's development in order to make their old age into golden age . |
| 234 | It is not always necessary to measure everything in dollars and cents , and we must recognize that the aging process is not a simple one and accentuate on the development of 'elderly-friendly ' facilities to ease the aging process for them . |
| 235 | Therefore , there should not be a need to divert public spending on the elderly to other areas of the country 's development . |
| 236 | Diverting money to other areas of the country 's development does not mean government will take less responsibility to this social problem . |
| 237 | It is important for society to show its appreciation for the contribution made by the elderly . |
| 238 | In a nutshell , government spending on elderly should not be reduced as it would potentially be unfavourable especially since the current aging trend involves the " baby boomers " , a substantial amount of people . |
| 239 | On the other hand , the increase in retirement age does not necessarily mean that people will be able to maximize their working years as some might be faced with health issues even before their retirement age . |
| 240 | But this does not mean that to overcome these challenges , excessive spending should be done by the government . |
| 241 | Hence , we can not simply turn a blind eye to the needs of the elderly . |
| 242 | This is true , but as mentioned , aging process does not simply mean longevity . |
| 243 | However , the government has been creating awareness on looking out for each other especially the elderly in society . |
| 244 | As many believe health is wealth , if spending a little more could give the elders a healthy lifestyle , everything is worthwhile . |
| 245 | In this essay , I will tell you why public spending on the aged should not be limited . |
| 246 | Therefore , it is necessary that the public finances spent on the elderly is always considered carefully by the government . |
| 247 | Despite the increase in capital investments on elderly friendly amenities , the allocated budget for a country 's development need not be jeopardized . |
| 248 | Lastly , the whole world is facing the proliferation of aging population in this contemporary world , so caring for old people is many developed countries ' top social priority . |
| 249 | Therefore , continual support from the government is important to promote children to stay with their elderly parents . |
| 250 | However some may argue that public spending should not be limited . |
| 251 | The government has been aggressively promoting awareness of health care issues among the ageing society . |
| 252 | Furthermore , there is also a need to continue to provide such support to the elderly for the government to retain support and instill a sense of belonging amongst the citizens to prevent people from migrating . |
| 253 | To limit spending on the aged does not mean that government should not spend on them . |
| 254 | Every individual should try to play their part in dealing with the problems of an aging population . |
| 255 | Hence , it is important to educate people to appreciate the elderly . |
| 256 | All in all , as long as we have a definitive balance on the spending on the aged , we can achieve both taking care of them and national development . |
| 257 | Therefore more attention is needed to be given to the aged . |
| 258 | Since there is no way to escape aging , the government needs to pay a lot of pay a lot of attention to the issues relating to aging . |
| 259 | Therefore , public spending on the elderly should still be continued in the form of financial policies and benefits . |
| 260 | Contrary to limiting public spending , critics of human rights have been advocating that state funding should not be minimized at the expense of growing the economy . |
| 261 | The government should hence allocate enough funds to ensure that all the elderly in the country have a place to stay and proper medical treatment should be made available to them regardless of whether they are able to pay . |
| 262 | Limitations should not be encouraged as years later the demand for elderly friendly facilities might exceed the supply of them . |
| 263 | Instead , the public itself should take a major role in ageing issues and work together with the government to solve these long term difficulties . |
| 264 | The government should spread out its public spending to the various groups of people in need instead of just focusing on the elderly . |
| 265 | These efforts must not be neglected and hence , government should provide for them now that they have turned economically inactive . |
| 266 | The government 's moral obligation should not be supporting the elderly only . |
| 267 | public spending on the elderly constitutes a safety net for them and all parties should work hand in hand to resolve . |
| 268 | The government is still taking care of the aged in various aspects . |
| 269 | Therefore , we still need to spend on maintaining the welfare of these people . |
| 270 | Moreover , public spending on these areas has a wider coverage rather than focusing only on the aged . |
| 271 | Thus , I do not think that we should limit the amount of money to be spent on the elderly . |
| 272 | Although the elderly are an important asset , they are not the only asset a nation has . |
| 273 | But the problem is limiting the public spending does not mean cutting off the spending . |
| 274 | Thus , in order to keep her citizens in the country , welfare benefits have to be maintained or even increased such that people do not turn to foreign lands to enjoy their retirement . |
| 275 | To achieve this , we need to remember this ; assisting the elderly is important but building a nation is more important . |
| 276 | Limiting public spending does not mean depriving them of support , but it means providing what 's necessary . |
| 277 | Hence , the government should be advised to continue providing for the aged and try to overcome the obstacles presented . |
| 278 | Nevertheless , a government can still provide funds for the aged . |
| 279 | However , this argument may not be valid because the elderly are considered as an integral part of a country and can not be totally excluded . |
| 280 | However , other areas should not be neglected , as our nation 's growth and development are of vital importance as well . |
| 281 | Creating a positive image of the elderly is necessary . |
| 282 | Taking care of the aged is now a global issue that no country can steer clear of . |
| 283 | It is also vital that a perspective is set on the government not being the sole agent to relieve the ageing process . |
| 284 | As for the aged , although we can not neglect them , we can always provide them with just the right amount so that they too will get what they deserve from the society . |
| 285 | The three main methods in solving this problem will be filial obligation , later retirement and government subsidies . Last but not least , every single person and organization should combine strength together to curb this problem , as quoted in the MOH Philosophy , " An elderly person should stay in community for as long as possible as institutionalization should only be a measure for the last resort . |
| 286 | Everyone has to play a role in alleviating the effects of the aging process . |
| 287 | They are still very important and the government must help take care of them in a way and not to overlook them . |
| 288 | Thus , it will be unfair to limit the fiscal cost spent on the aged . |
| 289 | Although the elderly could only do the minimum for the society and the country , they made up a higher percentage of the population and should not be ignored . |
| 290 | In conclusion , there are so many other issues of the society the government has to consider other than the aging population . |
| 291 | The challenge for the future is to ensure that people with different ages can continue to participate in society as citizens with full human rights . |
| 292 | This is due to the fact that the aged is not the only dependent group in society . |
| 293 | Research and development/policies are not the only ways in easing the aging process though . |
| 294 | Since everything provided by the government is considered as a right of people , the more the subsidies for the elderly , the more demand will be created . |
| 295 | So the government should not limit public spending in case of complaints from the public . |
| 296 | Everyone has a role to play to solve the persisting aging problem in many developed societies . |
| 297 | This saying used in the ageing process implies that people must do everything in their power to look into the difficulties faced as they age . |
| 298 | In other words , the government should not leave those elderly in lurch to struggle on their own for survival . |
| 299 | Therefore , it is pertinent that the government does not overlook their needs . |
| 300 | Therefore , the emphasis is not just on the aged . |
| 301 | Hence , the government should not focus on limiting public spending but on ways to spend it wisely . |
| 302 | Some of the reasons mentioned are " reducing the share of public support does not eliminate societal costs " ( Friedland and |
| 303 | They are still very important to the country and the government must play a part to take care of them . |
| 304 | Therefore , public spending should not be limited as limiting public spending is the wrong way to develop a country . |
| 305 | The amount of public spending should not be an object . |
| 306 | Sufficient government funding on the aged ensures that the elderly are well taken care of and they have a proper environment to live in . |
| 307 | From these solutions proposed , it is very obvious that money spent on the elderly currently is predicted to be sufficient to cover their needs anymore . |
| 308 | Therefore , it is better to give equal if not more spending to the aged , while keeping existing welfare benefits in place . |
| 309 | Instead , the government needs to recognize the efforts contributed by the elderly in nation building . |
| 310 | So it can be deduced that limiting elderly spending in the present does not equate to paying off in the future . |
| 311 | In the long run , we are still maintaining our level of elderly care a different way . |
| 312 | However , apart from coping with the latter , countries must not neglect other parts of development which are crucial to these countries as well . |
| 313 | However , we should not place our focus in financing the aged . |
| 314 | Social subsidies should not be expanded simply because there is currently a budget surplus . |
| 315 | However , limiting public pension does not equal to removing it . |
| 316 | Therefore the public should continue to provide for them . |
| 317 | This limitation establishes a bottom line for public spending to control the budget but this does not necessarily mean having a cut down . |
| 318 | However , the easing of the aging process does not only depend on the above factors . |
| 319 | The country is not only made up of the elderly . |
| 320 | Technology in itself is not the only panacea to solve the aging global population . |
| 321 | Relying merely on governmental subsidies does not solve the problem . |
| 322 | We can not abandon them as ultimately they are still an integral part of our society . |
| 323 | We have to be conscious that even though they are deemed as a liability , they are also part of the nation and should not be neglected . |
| 324 | The government will still take care of those who can not take care of themselves . |
| 325 | Furthermore , the issue is to limit spending and not totally cut it off . |
| 326 | If the benefit is to save a live , it is likely that anyone is willing to pay any amount . |

| 0 | We tend to need more health care as we age , in addition to this , medical advancement has led to rising health care cost , these have led to an increased pressure on the nation 's budget . |
|---|---|
| 1 | With rising medical costs , the government has to set aside a considerable amount for health and medical subsidies for the elderly as most of them would not be able to afford it . |
| 2 | The rise in the median age of a country can cause substantial burden to the economy because governments will have to incur huge spending on healthcare system to meet the needs of the growing demand of healthcare services . |
| 3 | This high cost would be a heavy burden on society and might affect the budgeting for other sectors like the health care system as well . |
| 4 | As healthcare costs are now getting more and more expensive , it becomes harder and harder for poor , old people to fulfill their payment for their medical bills . |
| 5 | The high cost of healthcare services results in high taxation on citizens |
| 6 | With the growth of the aging population , public spending on healthcare costs will be exorbitant . |
| 7 | With the rising cost of basic necessities and medical costs due to inflation in the future , those with no or low income will suffer as these factors will result in the elderly not having enough savings or income to overcome the current economic climate . |
| 8 | As age increases , chronic illnesses inevitably rise alongside and the burden of medical cost may simply be too much for one to bear . |
| 9 | For instance , as people age , there is an increased need for more healthcare resources , hence leading to inevitable spending in healthcare . |
| 10 | Therefore , the development of healthcare facilities to meet growing ageing demands would inevitably raise public expenditure on the aged . |
|---|---|
| 11 | For example , the rising cost of healthcare for the elderly has taken its toll on and many can not afford it . |
| 12 | However , there are increasing pressures on social benefits including health services funds especially during the economic crisis . |
| 13 | To maintain the healthcare system for the elderly , a significant amount of money will have to be spent on it , which may have serious consequences for society . |
| 14 | In addition , rising medical cost makes it more imperative for the elderly to receive help in order to support their medical needs in the future . |
| 15 | Although governments raise funds and increase budgets to support the elderly , healthcare costs is still high and some of the treatments which apply new technologies and methods are so expensive that money they save will run out after a few days . |
| 16 | As one ages , one 's body tends to be more vulnerable to health problems and this will add on to the medical cost which requires funding from the government . This would put greater stress on the younger generation in terms of increasing taxes . |
| 17 | On the other hand , with the rise in aging population , it is necessary to invest heavily in the medical sector as poor medical facilities will lead to more health problems within the country . |
| 18 | Expensive medical and health care cost , in addition to the very high daily cost , have indeed caused serious difficulties . |
| 19 | Pressures to spend on healthcare will also rise with an ageing population . |
| 20 | He is likely to face financial constraints due to high medical expenditures . |
| 21 | It may be costly to implement these policies , but it is necessary as in future the aging population is projected to soar . |
| 22 | Otherwise , it would be a huge drain on government resources to pay for all their medical expenses . |
| 23 | This is because as people aged , their health will deteriorate and this results in the increase of healthcare and social cost . |
| 24 | Therefore , public spending is essential due to the high healthcare services fees , the lack of resources to support the growing numbers of aged and the labour input of the aged in the society . |
| 25 | Despite heavy subsidization on healthcare , the elderly who are destitute without family support may still find medical service prohibitive . |
| 26 | Adding on to the misery , the cost associated with healthcare is also growing with the combined effect of a rising standard of living and the high cost of advanced medical development . |
| 27 | This would put even more pressure on the government financially in terms of funding the medical and social expenses of the elderly . |
| 28 | However , some people may think that the aged will not be able to afford the treatment as better equipment and treatments will increase the cost . |
| 29 | At present , healthcare is dreadfully expensive and the aged may not be able to afford proper treatment should they fall ill . |
| 30 | However , high living and medical expenses could make them have not enough funds to support themselves in their old age . |
| 31 | Spending needs are growing in many areas , not forgetting social spending ,but the government budget is expected to be tight , therefore our challenge will be to manage the increase in social spending as our population ages , and to focus subsidies on those most in need . |
| 32 | Furthermore , this aging population is very much dependent on the public spending to cover their daily needs , more importantly their medical expenses . |
| 33 | higher demands and costs for healthcare spending will pose a great challenge to the distribution of family and public resources . |
| 34 | This again will cost the government even more as now the government will need to support the increased number of people in need . |
| 35 | Without healthcare benefits for the aged such as subsidized medical fees , most elderly are unlikely to afford the high medical expenses incurred . |
| 36 | As the elderly are prone to more serious illnesses , some would not be able to pay their medical bills . |
| 37 | The society finds it even more taxing to support the elderly in ways like subsidizing on healthcare or even facilities . |
| 38 | The cost of healthcare is on the rise . One of the challenges of the Government is to try to make healthcare services more affordable . |
| 39 | The cost of medical and healthcare is increasing and this causes problems for families especially those earning a low income . |
| 40 | When the aging population is excessive , this results in extra enormous expenditure and the government is pressured to ask the citizens for higher taxes . |
| 41 | The healthcare cost of the aged will increase too . |
| 42 | This will result in high cost of health care services . |
| 43 | Besides , long- term medical bills for chronic diseases are so expensive that they undermine an average income person 's total wealth . |
| 44 | As the cost of living increases , the cost of healthcare also increases . |
| 45 | They may not be able to afford the increasingly expensive health care services . |
| 46 | In fact , it is very hard to be ensured that the money saved by the elderly for the future needs will definitely be sufficient as there are lot of large unexpected expenditure such as medical fees . |
| 47 | Although it might seem a feasible and effective way to cut down injury rate and therefore rising medical costs which will take the load off the national budget , it might do more harm to the economy than good as the government will have to spend more money investing into the installation of all these facilities to make it more " elderly friendly " . |
| 48 | an increase in the number of elderly persons can potentially lead to an increase in healthcare costs . |
| 49 | However , governments ' intervention often meant huge spending on medical resources and infrastructure for the elderly , which created many other economic problems such as hindrance to the nation 's economic progress . |
| 50 | With an aging population , the government has to direct more resources to take care of the needs of the elderly in areas such as medical care . |
| 51 | Costly health care system is highly unsustainable as it strains government budget and imposes a great burden on the aged and their families ' finances . |
| 52 | With the never-ending introduction of new medical technologies and the seriousness of prolonged illnesses associated with old age , medical treatments for the elderly would be increasingly expensive . |
| 53 | However , the increase in public spending means that working people may need to pay higher taxes , as public spending is supported mainly by taxation . |
| 54 | Today , as our society is faced with the issue of ageing population , the needs for better healthcare and social services will increase . |
| 55 | Large proportions of the elderly are unemployed and they may not be able to cope with the rising medical costs . |
| 56 | Also , this group of people might not be able to earn enough to sustain their own medical fees when they grow old thus the burden will again be borne by the government . |
| 57 | Besides , it brings us back to the aspect of high medical expenditures which the younger generations are probably unable to afford as well . |
| 58 | Some elderly people who have retired might find themselves unable to cope with their rising medical expenses . |
| 59 | As we are now facing the problem of a fast aging population , healthcare expenses incurred by the elderly need funding . |
| 60 | However , the national budget will come under pressure when growing numbers of elderly persons are supported by relatively fewer young persons , which leads to the question , " Can we really afford so much health care for an aging population , or are we heading toward a healthcare crisis in the near future ? |
| 61 | Medical expenses are costly and patients , especially , the elderly need to seek for welfare assistance when necessary . |
| 62 | There is a concern regarding the rising health and living costs which will become a risk to economic growth and social security . |
| 63 | Governments may be spending too much money on expensive medical infrastructure such as new facilities to suit the elderly . |
| 64 | Population aging is progressing rapidly in many countries and in the near future , this may push up the public spending on social security and healthcare costs . |
| 65 | Thus , it is crucial for the government to spend more public funds in dealing with medical problems of the aged . |
| 66 | Although this may increase the government 's expenditure , it is a necessary investment for a better future of the country . |
| 67 | As the number of elderly increases , with a great , there might not be enough young people in the workforce to support the economy and generate enough money for healthcare subsidies and government pensions as mentioned previously . |
| 68 | Taxes may have to increase and takes a bigger toll on the people . |
| 69 | As such , this intensifying phenomenon creates a huge economic impact on numerous countries across the globe , presenting challenges on the allocation of fiscal budget to mitigate rising healthcare costs as well as costs in other related areas . |
| 70 | This is important as not every elderly is able to pay for the heavy medical bills . |
| 71 | Due to the high standards of living , the huge medical expenses incurred by the elderly not only strain their children emotionally , but financially as well . |
| 72 | Critics of this approach have argued that if the government continues spending , more tax will be imposed on each working individual and elder dependency will rise . |
| 73 | Moreover , healthcare cost has been increasing . |
| 74 | Moreover , a fast aging population would inevitably increase the amount of government expenditure on healthcare and welfare programmes . |
| 75 | This would then translate into a more serious problem as the country would then need to pump in even more money to increase the health standard of the elderly in the future ( Weil : 1997 ) . |
| 76 | This issue will increase the health care spending and national budgets . |
| 77 | If [ individuals ] do n't have adequate coverage , there will be a tremendous strain on subsidized care which will drain revenues from the state . |
| 78 | However , as the economy grows , wages increase and the cost of living also increases , it would be inevitable that prices of products , medication , services , and hospitalization bills , would also be on the rise . |
| 79 | However , some may think that if the public spending is limited , it will result in pressure on the aged as well as on the working people as they will have to provide for rising health care costs in the future . |
| 80 | Even though there are subsidies , the elderly will still not be able to afford medical expenses . |
| 81 | In addition , the costs for medical care should be subsidised as some treatments can really be expensive and most of the people will not be able to afford them . |
| 82 | The aged need money to cover their extensive bills , that range from medical purposes to other basic necessities . |
| 83 | Living expenditure for the elderly has increased in terms of rising medical costs and standard of living . |
| 84 | However , if the illness has became too severe , it might be life threatening and it will be much more expensive to cure it . |
| 85 | With a shrinking workforce and an ever-increasing cost of living , the aged would have difficulty coping with daily expenses and medical bills . |
| 86 | Therefore , it is difficult to cut down on health or retirement benefits , as the aging population is becoming so serious . |
| 87 | However , to develop the medical sector , huge sums of funds have to be involved which may in turn hamper the development of other sectors . |
| 88 | With such pressures , the need to prevent healthcare costs from escalating remains a key challenge . |
| 89 | Nonetheless , if the spending on healthcare is limited , the burden will fall increasingly on low-income individuals as well as their families . |
| 90 | Subsequently , the government would have to spend more resources to solve the problems that arise . |
| 91 | They would be unable to support themselves , especially with the increasing healthcare costs . |
| 92 | This would result in an especially high cost for the government to bear . |
| 93 | However , with rising costs of healthcare services , the money in these accounts may be used up quickly and therefore they will not be able to afford any more healthcare services . |
| 94 | For instance , the physically impaired population requires extensive medical needs which require government funding . |
| 95 | However , with new development of treatments , it will mean that there will be an increase in health care cost . |
| 96 | The increase in aging population reflects the need for better healthcare and social services . |
| 97 | As such , this has increased the need for public spending on the aged in order to fund for the needs of the elderly which include the construction of facilities for the elderly and the provision of healthcare subsidies . |
| 98 | As the aging population increases , the active contributors have to bear the increase burden of paying more taxes . |
| 99 | There is an increased demand for health care services by the aging population . |
| 100 | " If [ individuals ] do n't have adequate coverage , there will be a tremendous strain on subsidized care which will drain revenues from the state , " she said . |
| 101 | For instance , one will have lower productivity in work as well as will need to face the issue of rising social and healthcare cost |
| 102 | Furthermore , global inflation and rising medical costs will add to their financial burden . |
| 103 | The drastic rise in numbers among the elderly will force policymakers and governments to anticipate the resultant demand for healthcare and a host of related infrastructural needs . |
| 104 | The elderly population needs a huge amount of money for healthcare expenses . |
| 105 | There might be one day when the country 's work force can no longer support the extremely high amount of public spending . |
| 106 | Hence , with lower incomes , they may not be able to afford the increasing healthcare services . |
| 107 | As the population ages , the need for healthcare services will increase . |
| 108 | Even the existing healthcare policies that help people to cope with the expensive healthcare services may not be sufficient . |
| 109 | However , new or improved treatments arising from advancements in technology will incur higher health care costs . |
| 110 | As a result , the health of the elderly can deteriorate as they may not seek treatment due to the inability to pay the medical bills . |
| 111 | However , such programs are a burden on the country 's budget . |
| 112 | Public spending on the aged has been rising rapidly because people need more health care as they grow older . |
| 113 | More capital might be required to be invested into the healthcare sector . |
| 114 | For instance , the demand for welfare benefits and healthcare subsidies will rise as the population ages . |
| 115 | This is because the aged population will not be able to afford the financial burden for the recurrent treatment of their illnesses . |
| 116 | However , these are really not enough to cover the high medical bills for most people , especially those who suffer from illnesses that require long- term treatment . |
| 117 | In order to cope with the rising numbers of elderly , the government has increased public spending on health care programs and subsidiaries . |
| 118 | Therefore , an increase in social disparity and healthcare problems would be an issue for the country . |
| 119 | Increasing healthcare budget would be an initiative which might be seen as a necessity by the government . |
| 120 | Firstly , Governments are setting aside more funds for healthcare to meet the growing demand of the elderly . |
| 121 | This small amount of money is hardly enough to cover their living expenses and healthcare costs as now healthcare costs are increasingly higher . |
| 122 | But if one is to be diagnosed with a chronic disease or incapacitating illness , the fund in his Medisave might not be enough for the hefty bill over time . |
| 123 | Since the number of elderly is increasing , it is important to cater to their needs in terms of healthcare . |
| 124 | As medical procedures get very advanced , the cost of medical treatments is too heavy a price to bear . |
| 125 | Since a primary source of revenue for public spending comes from taxation , the government will have to increase the tax rates in order to finance its unlimited spending on the ageing population . |
| 126 | A fast aging population is a serious matter as this challenges the government to consider whether to reduce old age dependency or limit healthcare costs . |
| 127 | More medical centres are needed to cater for the ageing population which require more healthcare assistance . |
| 128 | Firstly , many low and middle income group elderly are unable to enjoy such medicines and healthcare treatments because such treatments tend to be long term care which can be very expensive for them to afford . |
| 129 | By limiting public spending on the aged , this group of people may not be able to afford the increasingly expensive healthcare services . |
| 130 | Likewise , these individuals may be required to pay more when they apply for a health insurance . |
| 131 | If no effort is being put to limit the increasing healthcare and social security costs , expenditures on other priorities will soon come under pressure . |
| 132 | Therefore , the end products produced in terms of medical and lifestyle products will be costly and unaffordable to purchase for those financially weak elders and thus , not many elders will be enjoying the benefits . |
| 133 | While the wealthy could struggle to fight the illness , the average man and below would not be able keep up with the medical bills if no subsidies on medical treatment from the government were given . |
| 134 | Even with government subsidies and paying their CPF they might still find it difficult to handle hefty medical bills . |
| 135 | However , in the future , healthcare systems have to be reformed to deal with the increased needs of healthcare support required by the aged . |
| 136 | For example , a person will need health insurance to protect oneself from the high cost of medical treatment . |
| 137 | This will then result in an increase in the amount spent on medication , thus adding a greater financial burden to the shrinking workforce . |
| 138 | As such , it is important for the government to spend more to help these people . |
| 139 | It will be more worrying if they need special or long term medical treatment that might be too costly for them to handle . |
| 140 | Problems such as a shrinking workforce and an increased need in healthcare support have exerted pressure on government spending . |
| 141 | As the elderly population soars , the demographic changes that occur will cause increased public spending on the elderly in different fields such as medical care and public infrastructures . |
| 142 | Governments are forced to spend more money to overcome them . |
| 143 | Long-term care is expensive and begets the issue of who pays for the care . |
| 144 | As an illustration , the rising cost of health spending will make the burden for the young become heavier and heavier . |
| 145 | As people age , their income drops but their medical expenses are actually increasing . |
| 146 | Nevertheless , in a capitalistic society , public goods are getting more expensive due to repeated economic downturns over the years . |
| 147 | This is mainly due to the increasing needs of healthcare and welfare services for the elderly . |
| 148 | Many governments , in view of this problem , would invest more resources , especially in monetary terms , to seek remedy . |
| 149 | For example , more tax would be imposed on them in order to have more funds for the aged . |
| 150 | Treatments for diseases are always costly . |
| 151 | Yet over the years , when this group of people increases , especially at rather high rate , the amount needed will be more than the amount being put aside . |
| 152 | As healthcare services gradually increase , public spending on the aged also increases . |
| 153 | As the proportion of the world 's population in the older ages continues to increase , many observers are concerned that an ageing population will accelerate growth in health care spending as individuals tend to use more healthcare facilities when they age . |
| 154 | However , as healthcare technologies improve , the costs of healthcare also increase . |
| 155 | With these rising issues , there is an urgent need to pump in more money for this group of needy people . |
| 156 | Thus , more funds have to be set aside to lessen the strains on the people caused by the increasing costs of basic necessities . |
| 157 | As people grow old , they tend to use more health care products and services . |
| 158 | Public spending will only continue to spiral upwards if the government is committed to healthcare spending on the aged . |
| 159 | The government should then carefully decide the necessary healthcare spending that has to be supported by the public sector , as excessive spending or spending that exceeds the means of the government will lead to the future generation having to pay higher tax , as the successor government is left with huge bill ( Tan Ho , 2008 ) . |
| 160 | Therefore , if public spending on the aged were to be limited , less budget would be set aside for the elderly , which would affect them as healthcare is very important to them as they face many health issues . |
| 161 | Firstly , it is important for the government to finance healthcare and eldercare services as it is inevitable that people fall ill and frail as they get older . |
| 162 | In addition , increased spending on new medical technologies may restrict society 's ability to expand healthcare coverage to more elderly people . |
| 163 | Although more hospitals were being built , many aged patients with financial problems ca n't afford to go to them . |
| 164 | Furthermore , these elderly can not afford expensive medical bills . |
| 165 | That is when all the medical expenses start to rise as a result of health problems . |
| 166 | The medicine and the appointments to see the doctors are normally for a lifetime , which would mean more necessary costs . |
| 167 | Aging problems are likely to cause a substantial increase in public expenditure on health . |
| 168 | Although forking out a lump sum of money for medical fees is inevitable , the government should not neglect the economic growth of the country . |
| 169 | The high occupancy rate would mean that more healthcare professionals are needed to look after the patients . |
| 170 | They will not be able to afford the high medical costs and thus are unable to get proper treatment for their illness . |
| 171 | As some may argue , maintenance also needs money and may lead to an increase in . |
| 172 | The higher the expenditure of a country 's welfare , the higher the tax rate will be to finance it . |
| 173 | Providing better healthcare and welfare services is more important than before due to the ageing population . |
| 174 | Besides encouraging abuse , increased spending in healthcare for the elderly will also cause an increase in taxpayers ' money to subsidize the cost , placing a heavier burden on the people . |
| 175 | With limitations to ... ( what ? ) , it will create more social problems and repercussions that result in higher costs that far exceed the amount of money that was transferred to other developments . |
| 176 | Therefore , the opportunity cost of retiring early is too high and is almost beyond many individuals . |
| 177 | Some may feel that the costs are too high . |
| 178 | This could then result in a precarious situation , where many elder needy may not get the medical and financial attention that they need . |
| 179 | This will create a huge economic cost to the country . |
| 180 | It is true that these developments incur significant costs and more public spending has to be poured in to establish such developments . |
| 181 | When they fall ill , the high costs of medical fees may discourage them from seeking medical care , and as a result , their health conditions may deteriorate over time . |
| 182 | However , they receive low salaries , which can hardly cover the increasing cost of their medical bills . |
| 183 | Patients are expected to co-pay part of their medical expenses and to pay more when they demand a higher level of service . |
| 184 | Spending needs are growing in many areas , including social spending . |
| 185 | Even though health care is expensive , it is one aspect that can not be overlooked . |
| 186 | High welfare always comes with high taxes . |
| 187 | This will mean higher tax is required . |
| 188 | Moreover , it also accentuated the financial risk of long term care that may not be sufficiently covered by existing insurance policies . |
| 189 | Their financial burden will increase with financial related social problems following behind . |
| 190 | Lastly , by having a high limitation , it may mean that proper healthcare and medical technology are not provided for the ageing population and this may lead to a poorer health standard among the aged . |
| 191 | In this case , they might encounter difficulties in paying for the medical fees as they have more than one elderly person to look after . |
| 192 | To fund these expenses , a large sum of money is needed . |
| 193 | This growth in number of projects put heavier pressure on the government budget , which consequently created an imbalance in the expenditure for different domains . |
| 194 | Sick elderly who are single are not able to work to provide for themselves , thus leaving them with no income to pay for their high medical fees . |
| 195 | Medical cost will be much higher than before . |
| 196 | With a large population living in poverty , its government spent quite a large amount of money on the needy . |
| 197 | However , these policies can not help those people who have long term diseases because these diseases require a huge amount of money to cure . |
| 198 | Government entities also need to justify themselves if they opt for more expensive solutions which may/may not generate returns . |
| 199 | At any rate , the government has to increase its expenditure . |
| 200 | " When companies develop new medicine and healthcare products , they would tend to price it more expensive to recoup as much money as fast as possible . |
| 201 | The government has to increase taxes in order to fill vacancies . |
| 202 | In order to provide for the elderly , the working population will have to pay more in taxes . |
| 203 | For instance , if health insurance belongs to an individual for people should pay a lot more to see a doctor and get a prescription This causes problems for old people as they do not earn after retirement but have to visit hospital more frequently than before ( Peterson,2001 ) . |
| 204 | In fact not many people can afford long term medical treatment especially for elderly who have either retired or have savings that are not enough to cover the expenses . |
| 205 | Over the years , public spending such as in the form of healthcare benefits and subsidies for the aged has increased . |
| 206 | This places an increased strain on the budget . |
| 207 | There are arguments that the implications of this system would be excessive costs . |
| 208 | This could create serious problems for the government as it will cause additional pressure on the national budget and the economy . |
| 209 | These taxes contributed a significant amount to the public funds . |
| 210 | The government can also increase taxes so that money could be used to maintain welfare programs continuously . |
| 211 | Furthermore , with the increased income , the government can impose more tax and use it to introduce more or to continue existing welfare programs for the elderly . |
| 212 | This implies that the government has to invest more on training local medical specialists in these fields to meet the growing ageing needs and thus , more expenditure is required . |
| 213 | The government might end up paying more for the aftermath just |
| 214 | Tax prices may need to be increased to meet the needs of providing financial aid for the aged . |
| 215 | However , for the elderly with low or no income , they may face difficulties and restrictions in seeking appropriate medical treatment due to financial problems . |
| 216 | Each working individual will have to contribute more taxes due to the decline of economically-productive people . |
| 217 | The cost of implementation of the SCWR may then seem to be too steep . |
| 218 | Opponents may argue that it will cost too much to put the design into use . |
| 219 | The burden on an average working class adult has increased with yearly inflation and higher standards of living . |
| 220 | One of the challenges is the increase in the national debt and annual interest payments . |
| 221 | In this case , they will not be able to pay for their huge medical fees . |
| 222 | This would give an even larger larger burden to the working adults and taxes will definitely increase . |
| 223 | For instance , the workforce gets smaller as elder workers retire and the working class has to pay more taxes because of a slower economic growth and the need to provide more healthcare services for the aged . |
| 224 | Even if we have enough capital for elderly spending , recent surges of new pandemics such as the H1N1 virus , call for more funding into the medical field . |
| 225 | Most countries , by now , should be aware about the rise in the ageing population and also the heavy expenditure it brings about . |
| 226 | With an increasing number of elderly in society , it is rather strenuous for the non-elderly to contribute to the tax base . |
| 227 | However , many of these advances discussed require financial resources to achieve . |
| 228 | The increasing costs will outweigh their contributions . |
| 229 | Caring for health of the aging population will pose a problem for the government . |
| 230 | Government should spend much effort on taking care of them by providing financial support . |
| 231 | Thus , it is inevitable that their demand for healthcare will increase with age . |
| 232 | These will increase the nation 's health expenses and pension fund . |
| 233 | One impending problem with such rapid technological advances in medicine would be the rising cost of healthcare which is brought about by the intensive research processes to develop new cures and treatments . |
| 234 | Critics of this position point out that the cost of providing pensions leads to the increased taxes on the workforce . |
| 235 | In the absence of a subsidised health insurance scheme , people with serious illnesses or hospitalisation will be a problem especially when they pass the age of 85 or can not afford the increase premiums from age of 80 to 85 . |
| 236 | Therefore , the government should not neglect healthcare benefits for the aged as the consequence is undesirable . |
| 237 | Policies will need to be introduced and thus will increase expenditures of the government . |
| 238 | Children of the aged have to undertake the higher proportion of expenses especially in the aspect of medical . |
| 239 | Most of the above technologies come with a price , and not having enough cash for the elderly is effectively cutting off all their access to the aids provided for them . |
| 240 | A large amount of money is required to purchase these resources . |
| 241 | Therefore , the purchase of materials can be quite costly as plenty of them will go to waste . |
| 242 | With most of the elderly retired and having no source of income , they might be unable to fund their medical expenses should the need arise . |
| 243 | Aging is a difficult process as the elderly are more inclined to get sick because of a lower immune system so having to recuperate longer would be financially draining . |
| 244 | Among them public housing policies and public pensions are good choices of public spending but simultaneously also cost the government a great deal . |
| 245 | As a result , they will place further demand on government funds . |
| 246 | However , today , the cost of living is high . |
| 247 | Yet , they are more expensive to employ . |
| 248 | As this segment of the population becomes more significant , spending is unavoidable . |
| 249 | At the same time , it will also increase government tax as more people begin to work . |
| 250 | The wanted healthcare costs are significantly higher as specialist services and pharmaceuticals use high technology equipment and expertise . |
| 251 | For many , time wasted waiting would translate to high opportunity cost . |
| 252 | Besides the large demand , any new development would also bring about a rise in the pharmaceutical companies ' share prices . |
| 253 | Together with advances in medical technology , there will be an upward pressure on healthcare spending . |
| 254 | However , this is not the only area where government spending is required . |
| 255 | However , the amount of money invested way exceeds the amount they need . |
| 256 | Such attractions require large amounts of money . |
| 257 | In essence , most of the old remains incapable to afford their medical expenses despite with the help of Medisave . |
| 258 | Their inability to pay for expensive medical treatments has revealed the need to provide healthcare support for them . |
| 259 | This means that it will be a burden for the government to keep financing the pension or taking care of all the expenditure in health and accommodation issues . |
| 260 | Taking into account the issues of not having enough money to pay for expenses , we should all the more fund areas which can in turn generate more revenue for the country . |
| 261 | Hence , it may deplete and that would push prices up . |
| 262 | However , detractors usually argue that the effect of inflation rate increases costs of living steadily over the time ; as a result , old generations who retired in the 80s or 90s are likely to suffer in the current situation where prices are highly inflated . |
| 263 | In conclusion , healthcare services should not be neglected especially in countries which face an aging population . |
| 264 | As suggested , " if the government does nothing it will experience a rise in the structural budget deficit . |
| 265 | With this , more public funds will have to be allocated to fund this sector . |
| 266 | ( Lee , 2008 . Aging often becomes terrible as the elderly are drained from high medical and healthcare fees . |
| 267 | These are necessary expenditure that is unavoidable . |
| 268 | Firstly , the factors that increase the financial expenditure have been over-emphasized . |
| 269 | Products that are not practical and expensive will face rejection . |
| 270 | All these would incur more costs . |
| 271 | Thus , substantial increases in economic growth would be needed to offset the increased costs of aging ( Visco , 2008 ) . |
| 272 | However , the presence of R&D does come with a hefty price tag . |
| 273 | Consequently , the tax payers , mainly the younger generation who are productive , will pay even more taxes . |
| 274 | In conclusion , progress of development in healthcare needs have to always be maintained at a high pace as the tempo of aging progression hastens . |
| 275 | This increases economic burden for them . |
| 276 | Moreover , with longer life expectancy , the Medisave savings may not be adequate . |
| 277 | It will come to a time when they are left with no choice but to seek medical help for their illnesses ; but since they are left with little savings , they are unlikely to be able to pay for the medical expenses . |
| 278 | Hence , the cost of operation will not be as price-friendly as claimed . |
| 279 | Now , the problem some may question is whether such expenditure is too much . |
| 280 | Thus it requires additional tax revenue . |
| 281 | Such is an example of raising the eligibility age for public pensions and government incentives . |
| 282 | Also with the expansion of society , time becomes money . |
| 283 | This can be achieved by increasing the eligibility age for public pensions and government incentives . |
| 284 | This is because , as the world becomes more globalised , what follows is the surge in the cost of living . |
| 285 | I agree that other areas do need public funding , and indeed money has to be spent on it . |
| 286 | Thus , it is evident that huge amount of financing and support is generally required in both environments . |
| 287 | It would hardly be a surprise that healthcare costs for the elderly would continue to escalate in the decades ahead . |
| 288 | Secondly , treatment costs have increased in relation to the tremendous advancements made in medical science technologies . |
| 289 | On the other hand , the jobholders have to pay more taxes . |
| 290 | This retirement scheme further worsens the income inequality problem . |
| 291 | One thing to notice is that this stuff is very expensive . |
| 292 | The economy underwent a series of revolutionary changes due to the surge in population , hitting greater heights as the trend continued . |
| 293 | When dealing with an aging population , the government knows that healthcare is one major sector that they can not neglect . |
| 294 | They might not have enough money to get their regular medical checkups done . |
| 295 | High cost of living - what the government can do . |
| 296 | Hence , there would be more loss to the world if production stops . |
| 297 | Thus , the government is investing large amounts of money into medical research on age-related diseases and bringing in new medical technology . |
| 298 | Firstly , recent research and developments have resulted in higher levels of medical care . |
| 299 | In my opinion , medical imaging is the most important area where we need to spend time and effort . |
| 300 | Firstly , the cost of pharmaceuticals and diagnostic tests have increased . |
| 301 | Not only man , the world has been changing continuously especially in the economic sector which is the most important part of making a living . |
| 302 | The amount is a large amount . |
| 303 | A number of old people are going up day by day while young people , who contribute mainly to country 's economics , are on the way down . |
| 304 | Firstly , in the medical arena , huge amounts of money have been poured in for research and development . |

| 0 | However , nuclear power plants do not require any fossil fuel for combustion ; therefore , there will be no emissions of carbon waste to the environment . |
|---|---|
| 1 | However , if we use nuclear energy , we will not have this kind of worry due to its non-green-house-gas emission . |
| 2 | However , clean energy sources like solar energy do not cause these problems . |
| 3 | Also , nuclear energy does not produce pollution directly into the atmosphere in the form of greenhouse gases . |
| 4 | For instance , electric-powered vehicles were cleaner because they did not produce any harmful byproducts from combustion , and they were quieter , more luxurious and safer because they did not deal with any forms of combustion or heat . |
| 5 | It is stable , reliable , and clean in which does not emit any carbon compounds and toxic pollutants to the environment . |
| 6 | With the fuel being so thermally inactive that it does n't break down even in the event of a meltdown clearly poses as a major safety advantage.Another advantage is that the VHTR does not require frequent refuelling which extracts a heavy toll on the human labour . |
| 7 | Furthermore the environmental impact of VHTR is positive , since both roust fuel and coolant ( Helium ) do not release significant radiation . |
| 8 | In this way , it can largely avoid the release of radioactive elements and become safe and environmentally friendly . |
| 9 | Moreover , VTHR does not require the disposal of radioactive waste and the cost required for radioactive waste disposal can be minimized . |
| 10 | In addition , the system does not require steam-water separation , which reduces the flow path of the coolant , water , and subsequently minimizes the heat loss to surroundings . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Furthermore , nuclear waste is not a problem for future generation IV reactors like the Supercritical-water-cooled reactor because it recycles waste . |
| 12 | This is because the design of the cycle for SCWR is pretty simple as it does not require the use of jet pumps , pressurizes or dryers . |
| 13 | Another important point to consider is that nuclear energy is not a source of carbon dioxide emission , unlike the burning of fossil fuels . |
| 14 | The production of nuclear energy does not have carbon dioxide as a by-product ; thus it can reduce the effect of global warming , which is the reason for many other problems , like rising of sea levels . |
| 15 | In short , the high temperatures will not become a threat to the public as safety measures are taken to prevent accidents ; instead , the high temperatures can be used to improve the efficiency of VHTR . |
| 16 | The great breakthrough in the research also suggests that the VHTR does not require intermediate refueling , therefore eliminating the likelihood of accidents . |
| 17 | This means that there is no radioactive waste in the whole process . |
| 18 | Firstly , due to the research already being done on known materials to serve as reaction vessels , safety is no longer an issue as they are capable of withstanding the operating conditions of VHTR . |
| 19 | Therefore , the second advantage of VHTR is because VHTR does n't produce any nuclear waste . |
| 20 | Nuclear energy , like all other alternative energies , produces no air pollutants or greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide , sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides during its daily operations . |
| 21 | Also , nuclear power is not a source of carbon dioxide , a major greenhouse gas that causes global warming . |
| 22 | As a result , no air pollutants are released such as nitrogen oxides , sulfur oxides , dust or greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide . |
| 23 | Therefore , the high temperature and pressure in process and radioactivity of the element are not big problems to affect nuclear power research . |
| 24 | Therefore , safety is not a problem for SFR and it is safer than VHTR in some degree . |
| 25 | The electric car is also lightweight and very quiet , which does not produce noise pollution as well . |
| 26 | What 's more , the nuclear power plant almost does not release any greenhouse gases or exhaust gases . |
| 27 | During the convertion to electrical power , there is no emission of poisonous gas or water . |
| 28 | Environment impacts are also negligible . |
| 29 | Hence , nuclear waste disposal will not be a great concern in the future . |
| 30 | As a consequence , people do not need to worry about the radioactive waste during the production . |
| 31 | Lastly , solar energy is free of pollution . |
| 32 | No carbon dioxide emission and no contribution to acid rain or global warming , makes nuclear energy fully deserving of energy support . |
| 33 | As such , a leakage would not be radioactive . |
| 34 | The elimination of reprocessing will not cause any problems . |
| 35 | Thus , humans are safe from the radioactivity produced by the nuclear waste . |
| 36 | Meanwhile , SFR does not have the problems regarding maintaining the coolant at high pressure . |
| 37 | As VHTR has this important feature , disastrous events can be effectively avoided and the prevention does not depend on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators any more . |
| 38 | The low temperature indicates that we do not need to manufacture a new kind of material to withstand the temperature . |
| 39 | However , the VHTR is passively safe , meaning there is no need for human intervention to ensure that the reactor shuts down properly in the event of emergencies . |
| 40 | Generally , nuclear power is a sustainable energy source that does not pollute our environment with tremendous amounts of toxic gases such as nitrogen oxides , sulfur oxides and carbon dioxide . |
| 41 | Secondly , nuclear plants are said to be environmentally friendly due to the fact that they do not produce Carbon Dioxide . |
| 42 | Hence , with multiple layers of safety measures , operation of VHTR would not pose any threat to the public . |
| 43 | In addition , it does not produce carbon dioxide which can lead to global warming . |
| 44 | On the contrary , solar energy will not lead to such pollution . |
| 45 | In other words the MSR 's core can not have a steam explosion ; thus , it eliminates the need for additional advanced technology to control the high pressure . |
| 46 | Comparing with other forms of Generation IV reactors , the SCWR does not require high development cost as it uses existing technologies such as Light Water Reactors ( LWRs ) and supercritical fossil-fired boilers . |
| 47 | The risk of radioactive leakage is therefore minimal over its span of usage . |
| 48 | And there is no high pressure steam in the core either , thus the mechanical stress is reduced . |
| 49 | They are equally environmentally-friendly and the depleting of resources for renewable energy is of no worry since the reactants are renewable . |
| 50 | This will result in negligible pollution produced . |
| 51 | Therefore , VHTR is a safe model and would eliminate any such concerns . |
| 52 | The safety features of SCWR are passive ; they do not need human instructions in case of an onsite emergency . |
| 53 | VHTR systems do not use waste recycling , thus reducing the risk of proliferation . |
| 54 | Moreover , since VHTR is a CO2 emission free reactor , it will not contribute to global warming . |
| 55 | In the process of reacting , no high pressure steam is required within the core which means that there will not . |
| 56 | Since VHTR does not incur any waste recycling , VHTR eliminates the expensive cost of building extra facilities for proper storage and reprocessing of nuclear waste . |
| 57 | " Even after decommissioning , the VHTR can still discharge surplus heat and does not need additional safety systems like other types of reactors " . |
| 58 | Briefly , sodium-cooled fast reactors have brilliant prospects and the public do not need to be much concerned about their safety . |
| 59 | Firstly , it is environmental-friendly , with no greenhouse gas emitted . |
| 60 | Hence there is no need to be concerned about the safety of the reactor coolant . |
| 61 | The simplified safety features do not rely on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators ( Nuclear Power 's New Dawn , 2004 ) . |
| 62 | In conclusion , this technology is free of proliferation risks . |
| 63 | But for Lead-cooled fast reactors , people do not need to worry much about safety . |
| 64 | On the other hand , the electric vehicle utilizes electrical energy from batteries , so the engine is relatively clean , emission-free and quiet . |
| 65 | Also , nuclear energy does not rely on oil and coal which are limited resources and its energy generation is the most concentrated compared to other sources of energy . |
| 66 | It is true to some extent as no carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are produced during the production of energy through nuclear power . |
| 67 | Unlike wind turbines , nuclear energy does not require specific environmental conditions and compared to fossil fuels , they do not produce green house gases , However , the future of nuclear energy depends on further research where these generation IV reactors have to be tested , constructed and operated in such a way that they can provide competitive prices while maximizing the usage of natural resources and enhancing nuclear safety . |
| 68 | However , this is not true as the VHTR is developing a passive heat removal system that can achieve a higher level of safety which is not dependent on human intervention . |
| 69 | The public does not need to worry about the large amount of radioactive waste produced by VHTR because VTHR spent fuel is contained in a repository that is very resistant to leaching of radioactive materials . |
| 70 | This is because the only emission to the environment is steam , which does not pollute the environment in any manner . |
| 71 | Therefore , VHTR is proliferation-proof as it does not reprocess nuclear waste . |
| 72 | Besides the advantages mentioned earlier , nuclear energy also does not produce any greenhouse gases , like carbon dioxide . |
| 73 | One advantage about the device is that it does not require line-of-sight monitoring . |
| 74 | Therefore , there will be no need to worry about the nuclear waste reprocessing . |
| 75 | In addition , unlike the heat-energy reactor , the gas emitted by the nuclear reactor during the operation has little influence on the environment and global warming . |
| 76 | However , the sound-powered telephone does not pose any health risks to human beings due to its relatively simpler circuits compared to the mobile phone . |
| 77 | As no radioactive waste is thrown out , there is no danger of radioactive poisoning . |
| 78 | Unlike coal , the process used by nuclear power does not emit carbon dioxide to the environment . |
| 79 | Furthermore , VHTR does not emit greenhouse gases . |
| 80 | Its coolant is water , which is cheap and will not generate pollution . |
| 81 | It will not chemically react with other materials ( International Atomic Energy Agency , 1996 ) . |
| 82 | As it is well controlled , no deaths were caused . |
| 83 | This feature would simplify safety features ; hence we would not need to rely on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators . |
| 84 | Moreover , it does not require clean and fresh water to be the coolant , so sea water or some used water can be recycled as coolant of the nuclear reactor . |
| 85 | Additionally , when it is exposed to radiation , it will not be radioactive . |
| 86 | The Generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor will most likely be able to provide mankind with abundant and affordable clean and green energy with minimum risks , and thus removing the stigma on nuclear power . |
| 87 | For that reason , to find a suitable coolant will not be a problem because there is no difficulty to find water in earth . |
| 88 | On the other hand , unlike solar energy , the provision of nuclear power by lead-coaled fast reactors does not depend on weather or location . |
| 89 | Unlike its fossil fuel counterparts , that is petrol , gas and coal , nuclear energy does not cause pollution . |
| 90 | Nevertheless , this does not affect solar power to be the most ideal energy for the future . |
| 91 | As a result , the final products serve its purpose without imposing damage to the surroundings . |
| 92 | Since nuclear power does not generate carbon dioxide , it was once regarded as the best replacement for fossil fuels . |
| 93 | Unlike energy produced by burning carbon , nuclear energy is clean as no greenhouse gases is produced from nuclear plants , where nuclear energy is made . |
| 94 | Thus , it will not result in a steam explosion , which can happen in reactors using water as a coolant . |
| 95 | Furthermore , the SCWR does not require steam separator plates , heat exchangers nor turbines compared with the ? |
| 96 | In this way , the safety of the patients is no longer an issue . |
| 97 | Nuclear energy does not emit toxic pollutants in the atmosphere nor does it emit combustion by-products like carbon dioxide , a greenhouse gas that punctures our ozone-layer further , giving rise to global-warming . |
| 98 | Our new technology used in VHTR nuclear power plants includes simplified safety features that do not rely on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators . |
| 99 | Hence the operating conditions make the SFR practically safe as a result of the low possibility of incurring the losing coolant accident . |
| 100 | One of the more outstanding features of an electric car is its non-polluting factor . |
| 101 | Nuclear energy is used because it does not produce carbon dioxide which causes greenhouse effect . |
| 102 | However , workers need not worry about them as radiation doses are controlled by the use of remote handling equipment , physical shielding and limiting the time workers spend in the nuclear plant . |
| 103 | In contrast , the SFR does not have this safety concern for its operating temperature is just half of that of the VHTR . |
| 104 | Therefore , the VHTR is definitely safe to be used because the encapsulation for the spent fuel fission products has been further improved so it is extremely resistant to leaching in a final repository ( U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear , 2002 ) . |
| 105 | Opponents said that it is safe to use the electric car on the road , as quoted from " Electro Automotive " ( n.d. ) , they claimed that it 's fully safe as the battery does not leak even if an accident occur . |
| 106 | On the other hand , it also does not need gasoline as generating material . |
| 107 | Consequently , the alternate fuel source generated is also emission free . |
| 108 | Besides that , weather must not be an obstacle for good cars . |
| 109 | ( Bouchard , & Bennett , 2008 ) Furthermore , the use of nuclear power to generate electricity would not increase the risks of global warming . |
| 110 | Nuclear energy does not produce greenhouse gases or acid rain , and thus governments abiding by the Kyoto Protocol will definitely be looking at this to cut down on greenhouse emission . |
| 111 | Nuclear power plants do not emit huge amounts of green house gases like carbon dioxide when compared against traditional coal power plants . |
| 112 | The world seems to get relieved from the lack of energy source since the Generation IV reactors come out . |
| 113 | So , it is not affected by radiation , unlike other coolants such as water . |
| 114 | This means that it will not cause any corrosion or react with any of the power plant 's structure to cause damage . |
| 115 | As such , a leakage is unlikely to be radioactive in nature . |
| 116 | This eco-car has no fuel tank , therefore , it produces no emissions at all . |
| 117 | VHTR is the safest concept among other nuclear reactors , due to low decay heat and non-combustible nuclear-grade graphite , which is virtually impossible to be burnt . |
| 118 | Therefore , the electric car serves its purpose of being a clean and pollution-free car . |
| 119 | There is actually no need to be very worried . |
| 120 | The eliminated design like circulation pumps , steam generators and steam separators would not affect the safety factor at all , while the eliminated pressurizers and dryers may affect a little . |
| 121 | And if the government can reinforce the management of where the nuclear waste goes after using , people do not have to worry about the attack from terrorists . |
| 122 | Furthermore , nowadays most nuclear reactors are built quite far from cities , so people do not need to worry too much about the effect of radioactivity . |
| 123 | In addition , as the fuel waste is recycled , there is no need to replace the fuel for a few years . |
| 124 | Furthermore , electric vehicles typically have less { noise pollution } [ HYPERLINK : http : //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_pollution ] . |
| 125 | In return , but this also means there is no need to maintain the heaters . |
| 126 | Therefore , the cost is not a problem for SCWR . |
| 127 | Besides , it is not dangerous to humans who might happen to consume it . |
| 128 | So there is no need to be concerned about the safety of VHTR . |
| 129 | ( Rennie , 2004 ) " With SSTAR , countries wo n't need a large nuclear reactor industry to benefit from nuclear energy , " says Craig Smith , a nuclear engineer in Livermore 's Energy and Environment Directorate . |
| 130 | The reason is that all the six concepts of Generation IV reactors contain simplified safety features that no longer depend on sophisticated operators , which means that they can cool themselves if anything goes wrong in the whole process . |
| 131 | VHTR also adopts a passive safety feature in which in the event of an emergency , does not require operator 's action to shutdown the plant safely . |
| 132 | In short , operating at 1000 degree Celsius is not much of a safety issue since VHTR is safe and reliable at high temperatures . |
| 133 | The electric car is created as it does not pollute the air unlike gasoline vehicles . |
| 134 | Furthermore , " Very-High Temperature " reactors do not need to spend any money on waste recycling as all the waste goes directly to the repository . |
| 135 | Besides , it does not need very high temperature and can produce a large amount of electricity . The only obvious weak point may be the high pressure needed . |
| 136 | Therefore , even if there is a leak in the coolant gas pipes , it will not pose any harm or danger to the public . |
| 137 | However , with the considerable degree of benefit that they will have , I think this hurdle would not be a problem . |
| 138 | Hence , the public does not need to worry about nuclear waste falling in the hands of the terrorists . |
| 139 | On the contrary , the VHTR does not have this issue , for it operates in a once-through uranium cycle . |
| 140 | Furthermore , the gas type hardly has noise , which solves the most severe problem regarding noise ( Cowan , 1985 ) . |
| 141 | These nuclear reactors , unlike the conventional power plants , do not produce greenhouse gases ( Gerstner , 2009 ) . |
| 142 | However , these two disadvantages are not problems for the Generation IV reactors . |
| 143 | So the high temperature will not be a problem . |
| 144 | It does not emit any carbon dioxide gases or other pollutions . |
| 145 | The former did not cause any leakage and was well under control . |
| 146 | ) So the damage of the decay heat will be less serious . |
| 147 | This removes any possible corrosion or irradiation which could occur with the component materials . |
| 148 | This problem is not present in the VHTR that stores waste instead of recycling it ( Very High Temperature Reactor , n.d ) . |
| 149 | For example , water we use to flush toilets , to irrigate farmland and to wash cars is not necessary to reach the same hygienic level as the drinking water . |
| 150 | In other words , the corrosion will not be an issue . |
| 151 | Passive heat removal system is developed to simplify the operation of the reactor , which requires no short-term human intervention ( Shuwen " Eric " Wang , 2005 , p. 9 ) . |
| 152 | It would include simplified safety features that do not rely on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operatorsall are , in principle , 'melt down proof ' of an accident with minimal , if any , human intervention ( Butler , D. 2004 ) . |
| 153 | This also implies that MSR does not need to spend additional money developing new materials to withstand the high pressure . |
| 154 | Even though the coolant leaks out , it will not do any harm to the environment and human beings . |
| 155 | VHTR will not cause such concern . |
| 156 | As a result , the VHTR need not use liquid to gas exchangers , unlike the MSR . |
| 157 | As we all know , genetic disorders are not contagious and there is no risk for those people who want to offer help . |
| 158 | With future technological breakthroughs , nuclear waste disposal will no longer be a concern . |
| 159 | As a result , heated fuel will be disposed of immediately without threatening an explosion or leakage ( Joseph & Angelo , 2005 ) . |
| 160 | Compared to hydro or solar power , nuclear energy does not change the ecology of a certain environment . |
| 161 | There is no flammable or reactive coolant materials used to ensure that no big scale explosion occurs when being attacked . |
| 162 | No immediate danger , prognosis for a radioactive earth . |
| 163 | This eliminates the problems arising from having to maintain a pressurized coolant . |
| 164 | And the nuclear plants emit hardly any key agents for acid rain and photochemical air pollution , the sulphur dioxide or nitrogen oxides . |
| 165 | In fact , we do not need to be very scared because of this point . |
| 166 | ( GIF , 2007 ) MSR has lower fissile inventories and no need to spend on ways to handle solid fuels . |
| 167 | Therefore , an aging population might not pose problems as feared . |
| 168 | For VHTR , safety is definitely guaranteed because of its inherent safety characteristics which can cool itself down in the event of an emergency . |
| 169 | From all the weaknesses of the EV mentioned above , we can actually see that they are no longer a threat to the EV drivers or pedestrians . |
| 170 | LFR do not require maintaining high pressures in the core unlike SFR . |
| 171 | ( Charles W. F. , 2004 ) . In addition , almost no excess reactivity of the fuel goes on in the reactor , since the fuel is added in as needed and the radioactive substances are removed on-line from the nuclear plant . |
| 172 | Firstly , it took away the necessity of having a communication medium , which made it more reliable . |
| 173 | Instead of using gasoline , electric cars used only battery power , which no longer caused air pollution and reduced the cost as well ( Rogers , 2003 ) . |
| 174 | Therefore , Generation 4 nuclear reactor plants like MSR recycle their waste products and do not need to dispose them . |
| 175 | The building of nuclear reactors is not necessary for smaller countries in Asia like Singapore . |
| 176 | Thus , there is no need to fear when there is no crime done . |
| 177 | Moreover , generation IV nuclear reactors are free from nuclear proliferation . |
| 178 | In that case , whether VHTR can fulfil one country or even the global needs of electricity is not of concerned . |
| 179 | In this way , people no longer have to worry about exhaust of gasoline resources . |
| 180 | As the new plants would include safety features that are not solely dependent on any sophisticated back-up system . |
| 181 | A nuclear plant can be built anywhere , which does not require natural resources . |
| 182 | People who are against nuclear reactors even claim that the existing method of generating electricity is good enough and a new method is not necessary . |
| 183 | If the genetic test result shows that the genetic disorder is not present in them , it can give them a sense of relief . |
| 184 | Moreover , the simplified safety features of the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor are independent of all the sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators . |
| 185 | According to Gerstner , the Gen IV nuclear reactors will promise safe , economically competitive , proliferation-resistant nuclear power without the danger of increasing greenhouse gas emissions . |
| 186 | In terms of environment , nuclear plant operation by no means entails greenhouse gas emission . |
| 187 | The spent fuel pellets will then be safe for disposal and not pose a security risk should there be any intention from terrorists to extract fissionable products from it ( CHM333 , 2007 ) . |
| 188 | CITATION Lui09 \ l 1033 ( Echavarri , 2009 ) . As the result , radiation and waste will not be a significant problem anymore . |
| 189 | [ 7 ] Therefore , nuclear power will still be a preference to other alternatives as it does not depend on the inconsistency of nature . |
| 190 | But now , with the assistances of science , we are no longer worried about this issue . |
| 191 | Hydrogen has its high thermal value and can also be used without any pollution . |
| 192 | A positive result is not considered as a personal problem or bad luck . |
| 193 | Hence , it does not contribute to the worsening of Global Warming . |
| 194 | Lastly , the design of VHTR enhances safety features and excludes sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators so as to minimise human intervention . |
| 195 | Hence , it is not necessary to ban the use of RFID which can bring us so much convenience . |
| 196 | Moreover , as its fuel cycle is closed , there is no need for an offsite emergency response system - the system will shut down without spreading radioactive materials . |
| 197 | This does not concern MSR , as it is able to operate with non-weapon grade fissile fuel which gives no chance for people to misuse the research to develop nuclear weapons . |
| 198 | The wireless type would be less restrictive as there are no wires from the amplifier connected to the ear phones . |
| 199 | They directly negate the fears of nuclear proliferation due to its once-through uranium fuel cycle . |
| 200 | When it is used as the coolant , it hardly interacts with other materials ( { High temperature gas cool reactor technology development } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.iaea.org/inisnkm/nkm/aws/htgr/fulltext/29026666.pdf ] , 1996 ) . |
| 201 | We wo n't worry about fire hazard or explosion hazard . |
| 202 | Nuclear energy helps in coping with global warming by not producing greenhouses gases unlike conventional energy sources . |
| 203 | To prevent the repeat of past events , the VHTR has enhanced safety features and components1 that do not rely on sophisticated backup systems or experienced operators to function . |
| 204 | Therefore , under normal circumstances , there will be no problem for the materials to stand the required high temperature . |
| 205 | In this way , they are not subject to fierce competition in the markect . |
| 206 | An original hypothesis was that non-ionising radioactive particles do not harm our body tissues . |
| 207 | With such an invention , failing eyesight will not be the reason to stop old people from driving ; therefore , they will not feel emotionally affected by the inability to drive . |
| 208 | Otherwise since the disorder is not serious , then the carrier can live a normal life . |
| 209 | Furthermore , greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide will also not be emitted . |
| 210 | It is without question that the 'Herald of Free Enterprise ' would not have capsized if psychological approach is taken during the design process . |
| 211 | This concern would be diffused if we are developing VHTR , since its design does not incorporate a waste recycling component hence there would not be a basis for any uranium enrichment program . |
| 212 | The final argument advanced by opponents is that there are other sources of safer energy such as solar energy and wind turbines , so there is no need to adopt the nuclear power reactors which are still untested . |
| 213 | However , due to technological advancements in the VHTR , this is no longer an area of concern . |
| 214 | Since the very high temperature of VHTR does not allow the waste to be recycled , the problem that people may misuse the technology will be resolved . |
| 215 | Therefore , there is no need to worry about the reprocessing of uranium for weapon proliferation . |
| 216 | The design was not tested but it proved to be reliable because over the years it did not have any major problems . |
| 217 | The greater use of CNG vehicles for public transportation will result in a quieter urban environment , which will be a plus for our living environment . |
| 218 | The nuclear power will not produce any byproduct which can damage the atmosphere like CO2 . |
| 219 | Unlike the normal gasoline vehicle which emits greenhouse and harmful gases , the power of the CNG vehicle can emit 70 % lesser CO2 and little harmful gas . |
| 220 | Some jobs like this are not very brain-consuming and do not need a lot of physical strength . |
| 221 | Despite the fact that nuclear power plant accidents really result in environmental contamination , it is still relatively not very bad contrasted with the pollution produced by traditional power generation . |
| 222 | Not only is it convenient , because the individual already gave prior permission , but it is also not considered to be a breach of privacy . |
| 223 | They do no not have to worry about their physical needs not being well-taken care of . |
| 224 | First , it wo n't give off carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide , which has a positive impact on our environment . |
| 225 | However , it would translate to designs encompassing user friendly backup systems non reliant on the competency of operators . |
| 226 | Therefore , with the passive fail safe devices in place , operators need no longer worry about any protocol when the panic button is pressed but instead the system will take care of itself . |
| 227 | Again this concern is no longer a problem actually . |
| 228 | Thus , the VHTR is neutral in sustainability which means that VHTR spent fuel that could be disposed of in a geological repository or conditioned for optimum waste disposal . |
| 229 | Hence , the high one-time economic investment does not seem to be a problem compared with the high efficiency and the significant side product of the VHTR system . |
| 230 | Solar panels do not contain moving parts , unlike the turbines in the windmills or hydroelectric dams . |
| 231 | Cost should not be an issue as it will eventually be reduced with the overhead costs . |
| 232 | This essentially obliterates the security risks involved in transporting radioactive wastes and allows security efforts to be focused on the plant itself . |
| 233 | Media release : Privacy law does n't risk lives . |
| 234 | Therefore , terrorism should not become an obstacle in the development of nuclear reactors . |
| 235 | Actually this should not be a worry . |
| 236 | They make assumption that operators would know how to handle the equipments when the process is offset , thus a potential safety features are not necessary . |
| 237 | " ( M. Allen , 2006 . In this modern world where decisions are made based on most available technology and rational choices , the negative impact of aging process has been eased and negated . |
| 238 | When it stops , no energy is consumed as the engine will switch off by itself and operate upon motion of the vehicle . |
| 239 | In addition , nuclear power plants do not require specific areas for construction , unlike other alternative energies such as wind farms , which will require areas that have sufficient wind speeds , or hydroelectric plants , which will require a large river for the dam . |
| 240 | Hence , SFR is very safe . |
| 241 | The benefits actually supersede the violation of people 's privacy or in some case it does not violate at all . |
| 242 | Furthermore , it also addresses the issue on global warming as it does not produce greenhouse emissions which could further aggravate the situation . |
| 243 | The electric vehicle wins over the petroleum vehicle as it produces less carbon emissions . |
| 244 | With the aforementioned technologies , this is no longer the Chernobyl era , and we should have confidence that by the time VHTR is really put into mass practice , the security can be even better guaranteed . |
| 245 | Thus , this will not threaten individual 's privacy . |
| 246 | In fact , limitation on it does not always mean a bad effect . |
| 247 | Also , what people worry about , like security , is actually not very bad . |
| 248 | It has zero waste . |
| 249 | However , this is not a problem for SRF . |
| 250 | Therefore , the safety issue concerning high temperature and pressure is overcome to some extent . |
| 251 | The Britain 's Road to 2010 strategy states that nuclear power , which generates low carbon electricity , is affordable , dependable and safe ( Nuclear Power In The United Kingdom , 2009 ) . |
| 252 | Under the concept of SCWR , Butler ( 2004 ) also states that SCWRs have simple safety features that do not depend on well-trained operators and complex backup systems . |
| 253 | There is no requirement for fuel fabrication . |
| 254 | Therefore , material is no longer a problem . |
| 255 | The VHTR , being " passively safe " ( Hansen , 2008 ) , is self sustained in case of emergency by shutting itself down safely . |
| 256 | ( Holtzman , 1996 ) . This way , both parties benefit and there is no unfair discrimination . |
| 257 | Nonetheless , the inferiority in the rate of performance of the SCWR should not be a discouraging factor to its construction . |
| 258 | First of all , all generation IV nuclear reactors include passive design that relies on law of nature , which simplifies the current nuclear generator design that has redundant valves and control system . |
| 259 | Vibration and noise is minimal compared to an internal combustion engine . |
| 260 | It is convenient to use as it can stick to almost any surfaces and be peeled off easily without leaving any marks . |
| 261 | In addition , MSR is free of pressure and easy for fuel dumping , which is its own property . |
| 262 | Hence , the economic model for one off development and limitation of human resources should not be obstacles for our country 's progress . |
| 263 | Hence , the plant can be operated at high temperatures without having to worry about corrosion of the plant pipes . |
| 264 | Therefore the VHTR 's limit core temperatures are retained in the ceramic fuel particles without the necessity for operator Intervention . |
| 265 | This definitely will not pollute the environment . |
| 266 | However , government initiated policies are not as inefficient after all . |
| 267 | Also , the plant is not very expensive to construct as the opponents claim . |
| 268 | Since solar energy is a renewable source of energy and therefore can not be depleted . |
| 269 | In the case of the VHTR this major security flaw is completely eliminated . |
| 270 | Hence in case of a meltdown or any terrorist activities the system can avoid a meltdown without any human interaction . |
| 271 | With multiple security features to prevent thefts , there is no need to be afraid of radioactive materials being stolen . |
| 272 | They may be slower but they do not complain . |
| 273 | As a result , VHTR can keep on operation for long lifetime without intermediate refueling . |
| 274 | Apart from reducing the air pollution , The natural gas vehicle also produces lower noise levels than gasoline vehicles . |
| 275 | Concerns from the public regarding the implications of radiation exposure of an operating nuclear plant are all but unfounded as ironically , conventional fossil fuel plants emit more pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and nitrous oxide which causes acid rain , carbon dioxide which causes global warming . |
| 276 | Its effects on global warming are less prominent . |
| 277 | " CITATION Ver09 \ l 2052 ( Very-High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) ) The pebble-bed and prismatic design of VHTR makes no intermediate refueling necessary . |
| 278 | Unlike the nuclear power or water power , we never need to worry about the explosion of the powerhouse nor the collapse of dams caused by the strong water stream . |
| 279 | One more important information is thatt there is no need for GFR to be manually moderated because GFR has already used Thorium which can absorb fast neutrons and decay into Uranium-233 ( " Gas-cooled Fast Reactor " ) . |
| 280 | Therefore , the concern about radioactive waste is not founded . |
| 281 | I believe that if the LTA really hopes to solve this problem , the cost would not be an issue . |
| 282 | In case of an industrial accident in one of the systems , operators can easily isolate that particular system and rectify the problem as quickly as possible without worrying that the problem might spread to parts of the other two systems . |
| 283 | Accordingly the new fuel will improve performance drastically , reaching burn-up basis of 80GWd/tHM and withstand very high temperature ( 1600C ) , yet without making any significant radionuclide release . |
| 284 | A nuclear power plant emits significantly low carbon while fossil fuel pollution kills around ten thousand people per year in the United States due to respiratory problems . |
| 285 | The VHTR , instead , uses a once-through fuel cycle that does not reuse waste material . |
| 286 | Furthermore , no greenhouse gas is being produced . |
| 287 | Furthermore , in contrast to the SFR , the VHTR is resistant to nuclear weapon proliferation as it abandons the reprocessing process . |
| 288 | Therefore , having an ageing workforce might not necessarily be negative . |
| 289 | Thus , cost should not be an area of concern for the general public . |
| 290 | " Old age is n't so bad when you consider the alternative " , said Maurice Chevalier ( citation ) . |
| 291 | However , contrary to what is commonly believed , Pat Thane ( citation ) argued that , they are not inevitably unhealthy . |
| 292 | However , this does not affect a majority of the population . |
| 293 | Low rolling resistance tires save gas . |
| 294 | The design of the reactor could thus include simple idiot-proof automated safety mechanisms without relying on operators ' competency . |
| 295 | From that point , old age is not appalling anymore . |
| 296 | Besides this , as mentioned in the previous paragraph , the operating pressure is almost the atmosphere pressure which is very safe . |
| 297 | It may not be a disadvantage and can even benefit many people based on the points mentioned above . |
| 298 | Such worry is unfounded . |
| 299 | Oppositions agree that the design the electric car is safe enough for driving . |
| 300 | Unfortunately and much surprisingly , there are no requirements for airbags . |
| 301 | Thus , it is a less urgent need compared to the aged . |
| 302 | However , the real situation is not as bad as they think . |
| 303 | The statement puts forward the proposition that the issue of ageing population is not as important compared to other sectors such as social , economical and political progress in a country . |

| 0 | The VHTR has a better performance in terms of higher energy output , a safer design that meets safety standards and ultimately a more cost effective solution . |
|---|---|
| 1 | This would make VHTR model the more viable choice for energy since its high efficiency and stability would offset the high start up cost . |
| 2 | With such performance , the VHTR can also have high energy output when compared with SCWR . |
| 3 | Therefore , further funding for the research and development of VHTR should be made available as VHTR will bring long term benefits to the public . |
| 4 | Proponents of VHTR claim that it operates at a higher temperature which is much more efficient than the SFR . |
| 5 | Therefore , the great value and benefit from developing the concept of VHTR are far more than the high cost it requires . |
| 6 | In conclusion , for the long term consideration , the VHTR is worth the research into and money spent on it as it not only generates energy highly efficiently but produces a by-product which is also a source of clean energy . |
| 7 | However , the favourable VHTR has advantages in performance , safety and cost that outweigh those of the GCFR and thus should be given support for further research and development . |
| 8 | Thus , further improvement should be made to the VHTR to increase its efficiency . |
| 9 | As VHTR is operating at a higher temperature , there is an efficient conversion of energy from heat to electricity . |
| 10 | Therefore , with the advantages offered by VHTR in terms of security , cost and performance , people should support the construction of Generation IV and further research and development funding are also required for VHTR to be developed . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Since VHTR is one of the better options among the generation IV nuclear reactors and it is feasible , we should invest in and support further research and development on VHTR . |
| 12 | On the whole , the concept of VHTR can clearly benefit the society much more than any other sources of power . |
| 13 | It is not wrong to assume that under a higher temperature VHPR can achieve a higher efficiency than SFR . |
| 14 | The flexibility and higher efficiency of VHTR allow it to be competitive in the near future . |
| 15 | Therefore , the VHTR provides a number of processes to use the heat and produce electricity efficiently . |
| 16 | With more funds channeled into research into this area , the potential of VHTR could be maximized . |
| 17 | Given so many advantages of VHTR , we should devote more effort in promoting the reactor development . |
| 18 | However , the VHTR which operates at a higher temperature is highly efficient in the conversion of heat to electricity compared to the MSR . |
| 19 | However , the VHTR in the long run will be able to balance off the high cost of materials with its high energy output . |
| 20 | Therefore , in the long run , the VHTR is more economical in producing a large amount of energy . |
| 21 | While its initial cost is high , VHTR makes up for its efficiency and versatility . |
| 22 | On top of that , VHTR require a relatively high operating temperature and pressure for optimum function . |
| 23 | Lastly , implementing the VHTR is more cost saving than GCFR . |
| 24 | Thus , the VHTR offers a higher efficiency conversion of heat to electricity as compared to conventional power plants and perform better than existing nuclear plants . |
| 25 | The development of the VHTR system will not only benefit the fuel industry , resolve the energy crisis , but also encourage the development of new heat-resistant materials and temperature controlling techniques . |
| 26 | This may be true , but the value the VHTR system can rise and the benefit obtained can not be ignored . |
| 27 | In addition , VHTR is more efficient than LFR . |
| 28 | Moreover , VHPR is expected to achieve an even higher efficiency than SFR due to its higher operating temperature . |
| 29 | Hence , it should be evident that VHTR works better than LFR in terms of security , cost and performance . |
| 30 | As a matter of fact , the overall cost of building , operating and maintaining the VHTR is more cost-effective than for the SFR . |
| 31 | To sum up , it is better to build VHTR to solve our energy problems . |
| 32 | Thus , it is true that the VHTR has higher performance . |
| 33 | First , VHTR performs under very high temperature , thereby allowing for more efficient conversion of heat to electricity . |
| 34 | In conclusion , I would like to reiterate my stand that VHTR is a better reactor design than SCWR in terms of safety , performance and costs , and hence funding should be given to support the research and development of VHTR . |
| 35 | So a higher operating temperature of VHTR would allow for more electricity to be produced compared to gas cooled reactors . |
| 36 | The VHTR will require large amounts of money to be spent on special materials that can provide high temperature and high pressure . |
| 37 | As a result , VHTR can provide more economic energy to meet the demand of the world . |
| 38 | In the case of VHTR , though more costly than LFRs , its performance and safety systems exceed those of LFRs , which justifies the extra cost incurred in building VHTRs . |
| 39 | Due to VHTR 's high temperature and corrosive operating conditions , the materials used must have high dimensional stability and be able to withstand high pressure . |
| 40 | Thus , the VHTR is promising in providing energy and solving the energy shortage problem . |
| 41 | As the VHTR operates at a very high temperature , there are fewer wastes to reprocess than those of other systems . |
| 42 | In conclusion , the VHTR should receive further funding for research and development given the advantages it holds over the GCFR . |
| 43 | This fact makes the VHTR more thermally efficient than other types of reactors . |
| 44 | Secondly , the high temperature generated by the VHTR is advantageous in many different ways . |
| 45 | Hence , the VHTR systems are highly practical economically . |
| 46 | As a result , a misleading conception arises , which is that the VHTR works much more efficiently than the SCWR . |
| 47 | On the other hand the VHTR is more expensive to build ; its materials have to withstand high temperatures as well as high pressures . |
| 48 | Thus , in my opinion , more funding should be provided for research and development to further improve the production of nuclear power , and the research should focus more on the VHTR . |
| 49 | It is necessary for the further research and development funding for VHTR . |
| 50 | The VHTR is more economically competitive than the SFR as its overall cost of building , operations and maintenance is lower |
| 51 | Further , I think that the VHTR deserves further research and development funding compared to the SCWR . |
| 52 | The VHTR has high thermal efficiency and high fuel burn up . |
| 53 | Therefore , it would be beneficial to concentrate our research into this VHTR technology . |
| 54 | In terms of running cost , VHTR is a more cost-effective reactor than the SFR . |
| 55 | VHTR must overcome these challenges , particularly in reactor safety and costs in order to be comparable with the SFR system . |
| 56 | Hope we can benefit a lot from VHTR . |
| 57 | Therefore , despite the current challenges for this new energy source , the society should provide funding for the research and development of VHTR . |
| 58 | As a result , the VHTR is more favourable among the 6 Generation-IV concepts and further research and development funding should go for it . |
| 59 | Therefore , research for VHTR technology should be funded for further development to reach its optimal potential . |
| 60 | As long as the concept is feasible and is better than the old ones , VHTR deserves further research and thus can bring more advantage to the society . |
| 61 | In addition , more electricity will be produced with the help of the VHTR . |
| 62 | More research should be done on the VHTR reactor because currently , the expected cost of operating this VHTR reactor is still relatively high . |
| 63 | Considering the large economic benefit VHTR can bring , governments tend to put it as top priority . |
| 64 | In this sense , VHTR is efficient in use of energy . |
| 65 | Lastly , proponents of SCWR claim that the construction cost of VHTR plant is much higher than SCWR due to its high operating temperature . |
| 66 | Hence , further research and funding for the VHTR will definitely benefit the future generations . |
| 67 | In addition , the high temperature exchanger and electrical heater of a VHTR system prevent significant efficiency loss . |
| 68 | In addition , VHTR is designed to work under high temperatures . |
| 69 | It seems that VHTR might be very dangerous since it needs high temperature and high pressure . |
| 70 | Thus , further research and development funding for VHTR should be supported . |
| 71 | Yes , the efficiency of VHTR is really very high . |
| 72 | It is true that VHTR needs more energy to start operating but once it is started , it produces energy more efficiently than other reactors . |
| 73 | Therefore , VHTR is a promising and practical form of power . |
| 74 | Therefore , we can get a lot of benefits through VHTR . |
| 75 | Therefore , VHTR is the one which deserves further research and development funding most . |
| 76 | In fact , " the VHTR system is designed to be a high-efficiency system and that can supply process heat to a broad spectrum of high-temperature and energy-intensive , non-electric processes . |
| 77 | However , the VHTR still has a high efficiency rate . |
| 78 | Therefore , the VHTR model should be given more funding for further research and development . |
| 79 | However , the benefit attained from the VHTR can cover the high cost . |
| 80 | I personally feel that VHTR deserves more funding and research than GCFR in terms of performance , safety and cost . |
| 81 | VHTR would be an ideal model to supply nuclear energy to resolve the problems . |
| 82 | Despite opposing views , further research and development funding for the Very-High-Temperature-Reactor ( VHTR ) should be encouraged . |
| 83 | Thus , it is essential to do research on VHTR and it will deserve the effort and the funds we spend in the future . |
| 84 | The VHTR has high working efficiency . |
| 85 | Finally , the energy power concept like VHTR helps prevent the effects of global warming . |
| 86 | Therefore , in my opinion , it is justified to support further research and development funding for VHTR . |
| 87 | From these evidences , we could say that operating VHTR will bring a lot of benefits to people in future . |
| 88 | As an energy supplier , the VHTR is able to work more efficiently than that produce only electricity . |
| 89 | In comparison with the VHTR , I feel the LFR has more advantages and is a better reactor design and thus deserves more research . |
| 90 | Therefore , further research and development funding are essential for the VHTR concept . |
| 91 | Thus , in terms of feasibility , the VHTR is a better choice for further development . |
| 92 | Further Research and Development Funding for VHTR is needed |
| 93 | However , in my opinion , on the whole , the benefits gained from VHTR will far exceed the problems created . |
| 94 | However , these problems can be solved and the VHTR will benefit society a lot . |
| 95 | Finally , many people are worried about the high cost of establishing such kinds of the VHTR systems . |
| 96 | Consequently , more research and development funding should be given to VHTR . |
| 97 | Hopefully , VHTR technology will be completely adopted because it brings benefits and advantages to the society . |
| 98 | Therefore , the funding for the research and development of the VHTR concept is needed . |
| 99 | On the whole , the VHTR has shown great potential in becoming the future source of energy . |
| 100 | However , VHTR has proven itself as a high-efficiency system . |
| 101 | Last but not the least , VHTR is designed to be a highefficiency reactor , meaning that it can help to make great economic profit . |
| 102 | Whether it is about safety , cost or performance level , the VHTR is a notch above its peers such as the SFR . |
| 103 | Hence , VHTRs are , to some extent , better than LFRs . |
| 104 | The design of VHTR has an abundance of advantages . |
| 105 | From this , we can see that VHTR greatly outperforms LFR . |
| 106 | Furthermore , more research is needed to develop the VHTR system , including new materials such as heat resistant ones , and new techniques such as temperature control . |
| 107 | However , VHTR is designed to work at such a high temperature . |
| 108 | Therefore , VHTR should be further researched and funded for a better tomorrow . |
| 109 | This is due to the fact that the VHTR runs on very high temperatures and it will have a higher chance of failure . |
| 110 | Currently , the materials applied in VHTR are more advanced and steady compared to those used in previous reactors . |
| 111 | To sum up , even though there are concerns about the Generation IV VHTR system , such as the potential danger of the system , the high cost of the system and possible negative effects of the system , the advantages of the Generation IV VHTR system surpass its disadvantages . |
| 112 | As VHTR would be expected to operate at a very high temperature , all these are essential to prevent the reactor from being over-heated . |
| 113 | Since the VHTR is able to benefit us economically and environmentally , we should continue to develop it despite its risks . |
| 114 | We can not deny that the advantages of having VHTR are gained through years of research and development . |
| 115 | In order to fund the development of the VHTR , support of the public need to be gained through evaluation of its security , costs and performances . |
| 116 | With regard to safety , the VHTR has certain desirable safety measures under both normal and extreme conditions . |
| 117 | Furthermore , the VHTR has a higher operating temperature , which is essential in achieving better efficiency , as energy output is dependent on temperature ( A Technology Roadmap for Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems , 2002 ) . |
| 118 | The construction of VHTR is to totally replace the conventional sources of energy in order to benefit the human population . |
| 119 | Some skeptics feel that the building of VHTR is a risky investment , complaining that VHTR is an expensive source of energy , hence unfeasible . |
| 120 | Basically , high temperature operations are more efficient to convert heat energy to electrical energy and can avoid wasting of energy in other forms . |
| 121 | In conclusion , I personally feel that VHTR does deserve more research and funding in it than gas cooled fast reactors . |
| 122 | Firstly , the VHTR system can largely contribute to easing the energy crisis that is widely spread all over the world , . |
| 123 | Firstly , the VHTR has better performance than the GCFR . |
| 124 | In a nutshell , the VHTR is more economically competitive than the SFR . |
| 125 | Federal funding should be channeled for the R & D of the VHTR concept as it promises enhanced safety and inherent security designs , in addition to a highly efficient production process . |
| 126 | Some may say that the temperature needed for the VHTR to operate is high and it is not easy to provide the operating temperature for it . |
| 127 | While , the initial cost of constructing the VHTR is higher than the SFR . |
| 128 | Some people say that the SFR is good , but evidence shows that the VHTR is better in terms of cost , efficiency and safety . |
| 129 | In conclusion , although the there are several advantages of the VHTR however there are factors that makes it difficult to implement it as it is more expensive and limited by choices of construction materials as compared with the GCFR . |
| 130 | Secondly , the VHTR has high efficiency in converting heat to electricity . |
| 131 | Nevertheless VHTR will be more sustainable than LFR as the Ultra-long life VHTR systems can be developed with minor actinides ( MA ) . |
| 132 | Nevertheless , in spite of so many advantages VHTR has got , it still faces some technical challenges . |
| 133 | Therefore , for a better environment to live in , countries should support further research and provide large funding for the development of the VHTR even though the public is concerned with the cost and security of the VHTR . |
| 134 | Although VHTR is designed to be a high-energy-efficient system , there is evidence that shows MSR is the better concept . |
| 135 | In conclusion , funding for research on the VHTR must be supported . |
| 136 | In conclusion , VHTR has very promising path to be the generator of the future and we should channel our efforts to further develop and research the technology to be able to use broadly . |
| 137 | In contrast , the VHTR operates at a higher operating temperature . |
| 138 | The fact that the potential problems will be well dealt with should further strengthen people 's belief in the VHTR . |
| 139 | Therefore , the development of the VHTR should be supported . |
| 140 | However , VHTR includes features and benefits that would offset its disadvantages . |
| 141 | Though the VHTR possesses commendable qualities , the MSR is a better investment as a generation IV reactor . |
| 142 | This is also one point that makes VHTR a more economical plant than SCWR . |
| 143 | Hence , the development of the VHTR should be supported . |
| 144 | The overall plant efficiency of the VHTR is also greater than that of an MSR . |
| 145 | ( VR , 2007 ) Further research and development funding for VHTR should be supported by the governments or companies , because it is an efficient , secure and practicable technology , despite the worries raised by the opponents . |
| 146 | To date , the nuclear industry has created a lot of problems ( safety of nuclear installations , nuclear waste , radioactive emissions and so on ) without a solution , and with the current growth rate , nuclear power would not be able to play an important role in future world energy production CITATION But04 \ l 1033 ( Butler , 2004 ) .Research and development funding for developing VHTR must thus be increased while addressing public concerns about safety and improving design to reduce costs and improve performance . |
| 147 | However , there come some controversies concerning the issue that the VHTR requires very complicated technologies and very high cost construction compared to the Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor . |
| 148 | VHTR produces a high-efficiency electricity production with a broad range of process heat applications , while retaining the safety characteristics in both normal and off-normal events . |
| 149 | VHTR is worth building . |
| 150 | The construction costs for VHTR will be significantly higher compared to other power plants . |
| 151 | VHTR is just an update of High-Temperature Reactor ; therefore it is easier to build a system with the foundation of similar technology . |
| 152 | Hence VHTR has the potential to be the main provider of electricity in the future . |
| 153 | Thus , the VHTR is worth further research . |
| 154 | The VHTR is Worth Further Research |
| 155 | As the non-renewable resources are running out , the VHTR provides an excellent alternative solution to energy generation . |
| 156 | People may be concerned that the high temperature of VHTR can trigger an explosion . |
| 157 | However , there are also constraints and problems to be solved before the VHTR can be commercially implemented . |
| 158 | This additional fuel production would mean a larger net output by the VHTR in comparison to the SFR |
| 159 | To some extent , the VHTR system is indeed more expensive than the Generation III Nuclear Energy Systems . |
| 160 | Therefore , choosing VHTR to be a new energy supply is the best choice . |
| 161 | We must know clearly about the benefit VHTR will bring to us once the research is successfully done . |
| 162 | In other words , VHTR has the promising potential to be the future energy supplier . |
| 163 | Therefore in my opinion , VHTR is rated better in terms of physical protection and performance as compared to SFR . |
| 164 | In contrast , the VHTR needs special materials to withstand high temperatures ( Ghetta , 2008 ) . |
| 165 | Though expensive , VHTR is able to generate H2 which is useful as a non-polluting fuel to generate large amounts of energy . |
| 166 | Due to the fact that the VHTR should withstand extremely high temperatures , the materials for the chamber must be ultra hard and corrosion resistant , many times better than those that we have already discovered . |
| 167 | The merits of further research into VHTR technology |
| 168 | Thus , funds should be provided in this case to strengthen the passive safety design in VHTR reactors . |
| 169 | Hence , I strongly recommend further funding for research and development for engineers to overcome the challenges involved in constructing the VHTR . |
| 170 | Naturally , The public would have an impression that VHTR would be much more expensive , compared to renewable energy such as solar and wind . |
| 171 | This demonstrates the superiority of the VHTR as compared to the other generation IV concepts . |
| 172 | In addition , the VHTR uses materials that have low reactivity and high temperature endurance . |
| 173 | Once this research has been done , not only would the VHTR system benefit , , but also many other industries . |
| 174 | Despite the apparent benefits from harnessing energy through VHTR , the public continues to harbor doubts over the reliability and effectiveness of this technology . |
| 175 | The VHTR is a clean source of energy and could be the solution to the energy crisis . |
| 176 | Apparently , the cost of VHTR is really high . |
| 177 | In conclusion , the VHTR can be seen as a safe , reliable and affordable way to produce electricity since electricity has become a necessity in our everyday lives . |
| 178 | Therefore , we should provide funding for the research and development of VHTR . |
| 179 | VHTR 's technology is based on an upgrade to current HTR technologies . |
| 180 | VHTR has a better back-up system . |
| 181 | Developing countries should also invest in the development of the VHTR as satisfying their energy demand is essential for their economic growth . |
| 182 | Therefore , engineers design the Very High Temperature Reactor to make it safer . |
| 183 | Even with these arguments , there is still a need to develop VHTR as a source of energy for the future . |
| 184 | Some opponents may think that VHTR would be very costly . |
| 185 | With the VHTR , developing countries will be able to meet their energy demand and will thus lift millions of people out of poverty . |
| 186 | Hence , the VHTR is worth researching and developing on . |
| 187 | Secondly , the VHTR produces energy in a very efficient manner . |
| 188 | In conclusion , even though MSR costs more due to research than VHTR , its benefits outshine VHTR . |
| 189 | Hence , this makes it justifiable to spend more money to build VHTR plant . |
| 190 | However some have argued that VHTR is unsafe as it is operating at a higher temperature and it would easily be the target of terrorist attacks |
| 191 | Essentiality to develop VHTR |
| 192 | Thus it translates to higher electrical production efficiency , meaning that it can produce more electrical energy . |
| 193 | Whether it is necessary for the further research and development funding for VHTR therefore has becomes a big issue that is being widely discussed . |
| 194 | Although there is certain undenied limitation of VHTR , I am strongly convinced that with the current technology advances , the limitation will be solved . |
| 195 | In that case , we can safely draw the conclusion that VHTR is worth further research and development . |
| 196 | The initial cost for VHTR is high but it can be covered in the long run by its quantitative energy output . |
| 197 | In conclusion , the VHTR is much superior to the SFR in several ways ; this has made it the most popular choice amongst the Generation 4 reactors . |
| 198 | Therefore , high initial investments should not deter companies from setting up VHTR , as there will be long term gains for the public . |
| 199 | This is partially due to the reason that VHTR 's coolant , helium gas , is much more costly than LFRs ' coolant , and because of the strong structure that VHTR consists , it costs more to build . |
| 200 | Proponents of SFR claim that the VHTR would incur a higher capital investment . |
| 201 | First of all , opponents of VHTR doubt whether it is cost-effective and achievable . |
| 202 | To sum up , VHTR has many advantages that other generation IV reactors do not have . |
| 203 | However , the concept of a VHTR , one of the safest reactors proposed , encompassed this consideration and will prove hard to be a security breach due to the high temperature in which the nuclear byproducts are embedded in |
| 204 | Last but not least , the efficiency of the VHTR ( even higher than 50 % ) is also higher than that of the SCWR ( GIF , 2002 ) . |
| 205 | Besides efficiency , VHTR also shows its potential in two other aspects . |
| 206 | All the research and funding for the VHTR are definitely worth the money and effort with regards to the security issue of nuclear power plants ( Nuclear Energy Information Centre , 2006 ) . |
| 207 | In the event of sudden shutdown due to malfunction , VHTR can still produce energy . |
| 208 | It is a fact that the cost for VHTR is high . |
| 209 | Moreover , although in the short run , companies running VHTR may incur losses , in the long run , they will be able gain profits . |
| 210 | The high initial start up costs is also a crucial factor in the opposition of VHTR . |
| 211 | This will further complicate the VHTR system and additional cost is incurred . |
| 212 | Besides these , other safety designs like the passive heat removal system can also enhance the safety factor of the VHTR . |
| 213 | Further , the VHTR will be built on hard rock surface and this will minimize the effect of natural disaster such as earthquake . |
| 214 | In conclusion , though the VHTR has admirable qualities , the MSR seems to be better in terms of efficiency and security of nuclear material . |
| 215 | In conclusion , the MSR is a much better reactor than the VHTR as the MSR is safer , has higher overall plant efficiency and more efficient recycling method . |
| 216 | In addition , it is very costly to build the VHTR because of its excessively complicated inner structure . |
| 217 | Scientists pointed out that the VHTR is a highly efficient system . |
| 218 | In terms of safety or security , there is a temperature monitoring system in VHTR to ensure safety . |
| 219 | In conclusion , VHTR should be chosen to proceed on for further research and development . |
| 220 | This will result in the VHTR producing more energy with the same amount of fuel . |
| 221 | In conclusion , VHTR is still one of the better choices when compared to MSR . |
| 222 | Opponents of the VHTR have argued that developing heat-resistant materials for the VHTR is a challenge unlikely to be overcome . |
| 223 | Thus , the VHTR would incur a higher cost of installing since it needs thicker pipes to sustain the high pressure . |
| 224 | Moreover , for the VHTR , a lot of technical challenges also remain to be settled . |
| 225 | After all the above , we can see that we have many reasons to support the development and further research on VHTR . |
| 226 | Critics also highlight the efficiency problems of the VHTR . |
| 227 | One reason that causes the public to disapprove of the idea of providing funds for the research and development of VHTR is the high expenses on it which most believe that many countries can not afford . |
| 228 | Moreover , a few oppositions raise doubts on the efficiency of the VHTR system 's performance . |
| 229 | There is still a lot of research to be done before putting VHPR into service , which may bring many uncertainties in development and unpredictable cost . |
| 230 | It is because the higher the outlet temperature , the greater the efficiency of electrical generation . |
| 231 | Thus , the construction of VHTR reactor will definitely be more costly as compared to GFR . |
| 232 | In VHTR , heat resistant materials are used to build the nuclear reactor so that the heat is carefully contained . |
| 233 | Opponents may also argue that VHTR will cost a lot . |
| 234 | The great discrepancy threatens VHTR 's development . |
| 235 | In general , we are confident to develop suitable materials for VHTR . |
| 236 | Firstly , the cost of operating a VHTR is truly subjective . |
| 237 | With this in mind , more researches and development have to be carried out especially for VHTR system which has been described as a prototype for next generation nuclear plants [ 4 ] . |
| 238 | Therefore , the MSR is a much safer reactor than the VHTR . |
| 239 | However , even if there are several advantages for the use of VHTR , a number of disadvantages are still present in Generation IV reactors . |
| 240 | This is especially for VHTRs as they operate at temperatures up to 1200 Degrees Celsius as compared to the lower pressured MSRs . |
| 241 | Firstly , the VHRT had an earlier delivery date than most other designs and that was the reason why I supported it . |
| 242 | The VHTR should thus be accepted as the next generation of reactor and funds should be allocated for the research and development of the VHTR . |
| 243 | In spite of the fact that cost of building for VHTR is relatively higher , two products are generated for the price of one . |
| 244 | Some may argue that the VHTR has too high a capital cost , as a prototype would cost 1Billion US dollars . But many countries have shown great interests in the development of the VHTR , and the cost of Research and Development , therefore , will be split amongst several countries . |
| 245 | Therefore , I do agree with nuclear power is a new dawn for the next generation and the main focal point for research and development ( R&D ) should be focusing on VHTR . |
| 246 | MSR works better than VHTR in various ways . |
| 247 | For the VHTR Model when compared to the MSR , the construction of the plant is costly and takes up a relatively large space . |
| 248 | This is the reason why most of the people prefer VHTR to other Generation IV reactors . |
| 249 | This allows for more efficient conversion of heat to electricity . |
| 250 | This article will attempt to justify the merits of funding further research on VHTR through refuting the detractors ' claims in terms of safety , performance and cost . |
| 251 | Opponents of VHTR claim that production of nuclear energy is expensive . |
| 252 | In terms of safety and fuel technologies used , MSR stands in a better position than VHTR . |
| 253 | The by-products of VHTR are hard to extract and the usable amount is of insignificant amount . |
| 254 | Lastly , SFR has an obvious advantage over VHTR . |
| 255 | Since researchers would also be finding suitable high heat-resistant materials for the VHTRs to prevent the plant from melting down , the extra protection would make the future plants almost impossible to penetrate in the future . |
| 256 | Both the LFR and the VHTR have their advantages and disadvantages over the other in terms of performance . |
| 257 | The amount of waste produced by fossil fuel plants is significantly higher than that of VHTR . |
| 258 | Taking everything into account , because of its achievement in research in advanced materials , effective design and security , the SCWR should be so highly appreciated to pursue the GEN-IV through continuous development and funding . |
| 259 | It is clear governments should fund the VHTR nuclear projects to develop it further , and nuclear energy will definitely be the energy of the future . |
| 260 | Secondly , the overall performance of the MSR also surpasses the VHTR , making the MSR a better nuclear reactor . |
| 261 | First , opponents claim that the VHTR requires materials to reach a high standard and currently there is no suitable candidate . |
| 262 | Therefore , the high operation cost of VTHR can be offset by extra revenue earned from these services ( Idaho National Laboratory , 2009 ) . |
| 263 | Some critics that VHTR 's building cost are relatively expensive as compared to SCWR . |
| 264 | They argue that currently there is no existing material that can maintain the high operating temperature and pressure of the VHTR . |
| 265 | Therefore , adoption of the MSR as an alternative to electricity production is a wiser choice than choosing the VHTR . |
| 266 | However , even before VHTR has been made use of , the public has begun to debate whether this concept can do more good than harm . |
| 267 | Therefore , similar to those rich countries , developing countries should also provide funding for the development of the VHTR . |
| 268 | The higher the temperature is the higher heat resisting level the materials must achieve . |
| 269 | Nevertheless , some countries such as the United State and France prefers the VHTR rather the SCWR . |
| 270 | Therefore , countries should provide funding for research and development of the VHTR . |
| 271 | On safety features , the SCWR operates at a lower temperature ( 510C - 550C ) than the VHTR ( 1000C ) which gives the impression that VHTR is more dangerous than the SCWR . |
| 272 | With some degree of uncertainty over the possibilities of putting a VHTR into operation , such a huge bill is difficult to be issued anytime soon . |
| 273 | In conclusion , the VHTR would be clearly a preferred choice as compared to the other reactors . |
| 274 | Some opponents have raised doubts of the performance of VHTR . |
| 275 | In this essay , I would present my argument to support further research and development funding for the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) as opposed to the Supercritical Water Reactor ( SCWR ) , from the perspectives of security , performance and costs . |
| 276 | However , in VHTR , as mentioned earlier , it produces wastes and researchers are trying to find solutions to it . |
| 277 | However , until now , there is still no material that can withstand the high temperatures and pressures required for the VHTR to operate , and even if such materials are found , they might add millions of dollars to the still- unknown cost of constructing a VHTR power plant ( Svoboda , 2009 ) . |
| 278 | These two problems , together with a few others , may disrupt further research into and funding for the VHTR . |
| 279 | However , high temperature of VHTR has limited the use of available metallic components for the heat utilization or power conversion systems . |
| 280 | Some people might have a wrong assumption that the MSR has higher performance than the VHTR since it is a fast reactor that relies on fast neutrons while the latter is a thermal reactor that relies on moderators to slow neutrons first . |
| 281 | Therefore , the VHT reactor concept should be further researched and developed . |
| 282 | One of the main reasons for LFR being safer is LFR , which operates at around 550 degree Celsius , has a lower outlet temperature than VHTR , which operates at around 1000 degree Celsius ( Butler . |
| 283 | Thirdly , critics argue that the construction of the VHTR is too expensive . |
| 284 | On the other hand , VHTR 's research had been mapped into proper stages and there is a large pool of researchers working on it . |
| 285 | The energy output is much less than the VHTR models which will exceed 50 % . |
| 286 | In this case , I 'm confident that Generation IV reactors in general and the VHTR concept in particular deserve to be funded around the world . |
| 287 | Therefore , we can be rest-assured that future nuclear reactors like VHTR can meet the industrial demands and thus its research should be funded . |
| 288 | Opponents always think that building VHTR is very costly . |
| 289 | However , Ti is too expensive and thus makes it of high cost to build generation IV reactors . |
| 290 | I strongly feel that the strife for more development and research should be done for the sake of creating a more durable and lightweight Heartmate III . |
| 291 | Despite the negative points of the VHTR , it is still way ahead of the MSR and all other generation IV models , as only VHR has an efficiency of more than fifty percent . |
| 292 | Furthermore , the MSR discards a larger amount of waste compared to the VHTR . |
| 293 | High reliability organizations : unlikely , demanding and at risk . |
| 294 | Supporters of other reactors believe that they have better performance . |
| 295 | Therefore , I conclude that MSR has a better chance over the other reactors . |
| 296 | In addition , the VHTR is operating in a midsized plant as compared to the MSR which is large in size . |
| 297 | As such , I am in favour of the MSR over the VHTR . |
| 298 | Secondly , compared with other generation four reactors , the SCWR should be more applicable for most countries . |
| 299 | However , other GenIV reactor concepts seem to be practical , too . |
| 300 | Actually , it has some other wonderful features , for instance , its proliferation resistance and sustainability . |

| 0 | The solutions which Singapore has adopted and the policies that they have implemented aims to help the aged lead a more comfortable life . |
|---|---|
| 1 | In conclusion , although the aged in Singapore face increasing number of problems each day , the government is actually implementing many policies , funding , facilities , programmes and services such as the Central Provident Fund Scheme to ease the problems the aged faces . |
| 2 | The Singapore government has implemented policies which have helped to solve problems arising from the aging process to a large extent . |
| 3 | However , it is also important for Singaporeans to plan ahead so that they can depend on several sources of income to sustain their old-age livings and at the same time ease the burden of public spending on the aged . |
| 4 | This is one of many ways to ensure that Singapore citizens will live a better life when they get older . |
| 5 | Looking specifically at the case of Singapore : current research and development R&D and policies such as the employment policies , the public pensions programs and the health care and community development prepared for the aged have greatly helped in easing the problems posed by the ageing process . |
| 6 | In the context of Singapore , some of these include mandatory personal retirement funds , development of the health sector to better manage an ageing population , as well as encouraging longer working lives . |
| 7 | The government has placed necessary policies and developments to empower Singaporeans to lead meaningful lives in their golden years , to ease their process of ageing . |
| 8 | Thus , with the solutions given by the Singapore government , they will help the aging population to gain . |
| 9 | The Singapore government has put in place many measures to help ease the aging process . |
| 10 | For Singapore to be ready for its expanding ageing population , developments and policies have been enforced over the years to enable seniors to lead a fulfilling and enriching lives . |
|---|---|
| 11 | By providing and having more policies that have focus groups helping the elderly would also solve the problem of the aged being neglected , such as encouraging and supporting voluntary welfare organizations through 'Many Helping Hands ' Approach in Singapore . |
| 12 | In conclusion , the Singapore government has implemented policies and development that are relatively effective in easing the aging process . |
| 13 | Singapore is no exception , but to quite a large extent , many policies and community services have been developed over the years to help ease the weight of an aging population . |
| 14 | Given the high cost of living in Singapore , the government has provided benefits for the elderly by granting subsidizes on healthcare . |
| 15 | For instance , over the years , the elderly have helped to build up the economy of Singapore by developing several policies and they have worked hard in securing and maintaining the stability of the country . |
| 16 | In order to do so , Singapore has introduced policies that worked to ease the aging process . |
| 17 | Hence , in order to aid the elderly through the aging process , the Singapore government has implemented several policies and measures to ensure that there is adequate protection for the elderly . |
| 18 | To conclude , Singapore has constantly adapted and adopted policy reforms to ease the impact of its growing number of senior citizens . |
| 19 | This strategy enables senior citizens to stay engaged and contributing in the workforce , have more self-reliance in finance , boost the economic development of Singapore , , and thus slow down the aging process . |
| 20 | On the whole , the government and society should support public spending for the elderly because the aged have in the past contributed to society and have made Singapore what it is today . |
| 21 | The CPF in Singapore has played a crucial role in helping to reduce the fiscal cost of elder dependency as it compels citizens to save in advance for their old age |
| 22 | In conclusion , the Singapore government has seriously looked into the needs of its senior citizens and the challenges faced in terms of aging population by implementing policies to ease the aging process . |
| 23 | By making Singapore a better place for old age , it could resolve the issue of a diminutive pool of human resources as well as boost the State 's economy . |
| 24 | However , the Singapore government had come up with some policies to help make the aging process a more comfortable one . |
| 25 | All these developments and policies have contributed towards easing the aging process in Singapore . |
| 26 | These are just examples of the many strategies that the government has come up with to ease the aging process in Singapore . |
| 27 | The elderly in Singapore are enjoying a better quality of life under the current research and development or policies for them . |
| 28 | Presently , existing policies have helped Singapore extensively in providing ease to the foreseen aging crisis . |
| 29 | To deal with this problem , there are several policies or development implemented by Singapore 's government to help to ease the aging process . |
| 30 | Increasing the retirement age that has been implemented by the Singapore government helps in easing the ageing process . |
| 31 | In order to reduce the stresses , the Central Provident Fund ( ) was set up as a compulsory savings scheme in Singapore so that they can use this savings to support themselves in their old age . |
| 32 | Knowing this , the Singapore government provides sufficient financial aid to help the poor elderly . |
| 33 | For example , the Singapore government has implemented many policies and provided a lot of subsidies to help the elderly . |
| 34 | CPF Reforms and Other Measures to Help Older Singaporeans Improve Retirement Adequacy and Work Longer . |
| 35 | Hence , the effort of the Singapore government to improve returns on CPF Savings has buffered the impact of the aging problem . |
| 36 | In order to take care of the challenges , the Singapore government has implemented several policies ,such as housing , health and employment policies , to overcome the obstacles of the aging phenomenon as well as to provide . |
| 37 | Some examples of government 's spending on the aged in Singapore include healthcare benefits like the ElderShield and lift upgrading programme in HDB to provide an environment which is friendlier to the elderly . |
| 38 | In conclusion , this essay has illustrated that the current policies in Singapore have helped ease the ageing process to a large extent . |
| 39 | This would help to ease the public spending on the aged and money can be spent on other area of Singapore 's development . |
| 40 | In Singapore , the government has provided many measures to protect the elderly . |
| 41 | The purpose of such an account is to ensure that Singaporeans would have sufficient funds to support themselves when they grow old . |
| 42 | On the other hand , it is fortunate that the Singapore Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , which is the fundamental pillar of our social security framework for the aged , lends itself readily to provide for the needs of aging population . |
| 43 | All in all , though the government economic policies have some flaws , the policies have done much in making the lives of elderly citizens of Singapore easier and more comfortable . |
| 44 | Another solution to reduce elder dependency is The Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) system , a source of financial support to Singaporeans during retirement . |
| 45 | The state 's readiness to provide financial benefits or aids to 'foreign talents ' , and the conducive and attractive work environment that Singapore provides meant that these people are able to replace the elderly in the workforce and maintain , or even bring the economy to higher levels . |
| 46 | It has enabled our society to be better prepared for the aging trend in Singapore . |
| 47 | Another policy is to ensure that Singaporeans are financially secure after retirement . |
| 48 | All these developments and policies have helped to ensure that Singapore will be prepared in both the short run and long run against the problems of an aging population . |
| 49 | The Singapore government has made contribution of salary to the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) as a regulation compelled by law , and this helps in easing the aging process . |
| 50 | Singapore government improves returns on CPF Savings to help the retirees . |
| 51 | In general , healthcare policies have been contributing a lot to meet the needs of the 'aged Singaporeans' . |
| 52 | Lastly , the Singapore government has been encouraging citizens to retire later to accumulate more savings . |
| 53 | At present , the Singapore government has taken a very proactive role in dealing with population ageing and various policies to enhance the quality of life of older people have been put in place . |
| 54 | This will improve the standard of living for Singaporeans and will eventually contribute to a better healthcare system in Singapore . |
| 55 | In Singapore , the government and society have come up with various policies and strategies to assist the aging population . |
| 56 | In conclusion , it is true that the current research and development or policies have helped to ease the aging process due to the proper and effective planning adopted by the Singapore government . |
| 57 | The government and the public have actually done a lot in helping the elderly in Singapore . |
| 58 | Therefore , Singaporean citizens will be more sensibly confident and well prepared for their old age when they have financial guarantee for retirement years . |
| 59 | ( Asher , 1995 ) Alleviating the aging structure , the contributions to these savings are deductible in Singapore as the Governments aim to address basic needs and medical expenses security and stability for aging population . |
| 60 | Due to the advancement in technologies and the implementation of efficacy policies by the Singapore government , the problems that accompanied the aging process have been alleviated to a large extent . |
| 61 | Besides Singapore , countries around the world also put in efforts to ease the aging process . |
| 62 | This essay argues to a large extent that current research and developmentpolicies have helped to ease the aging process because of the innovative that Singapore 's government and other organizations have provided . |
| 63 | Despite some of the limitations of these policies , they have certainly eased the ageing process in Singapore . |
| 64 | Similarly , economic policy like the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) also aid in the ageing process of Singaporeans . |
| 65 | The reason for doing this is because the aging population in Singapore will be covered by this insurance plan . |
| 66 | In conclusion , our current policies clearly have helped to ease the aging process in Singapore . |
| 67 | On the other hand , countries such as Singapore have policies which help the elderly to cover their medical expenses . |
| 68 | There are a few measures taken by the Singapore government to ease the ageing process . |
| 69 | In light of the many policies and development that have been devised by the Singapore government to address elderly concerns , the aging process will be eased as most of their problems have been addressed . |
| 70 | Thus , this also shows that the aging population in Singapore is being well taken care of by the Singapore government . |
| 71 | The schemes offered by HDB have certainly helped to ensure that the elderly in Singapore can continue to provide for themselves in their old age . |
| 72 | With such initiatives , policies are now more focused on improving the lives of Singaporean as a whole . |
| 73 | Overall , to a large extent , current policies or schemes adopted by Singapore 's government has eased the aging process in the area of society , medicine , and workforce . |
| 74 | Furthermore , besides ensuring that the elderly will have sufficient funds for their living expenses after their retirement , the Singapore government also ensures that the elderly are able to cope with the hefty and long term medical expenses in their old age through the implementation of policies such as the Eldershield ( Healthcare Financing , year ) . |
| 75 | In the context of Singapore , to address this issue , various financial health care schemes like Medisave and Medishield are implemented to help lessen the financial burden for the elderly . |
| 76 | In conclusion , the current research and development approaches adopted by the Singapore Government are helpful to a large extent in easing the ageing process . |
| 77 | This win-win situation will allow Singapore to embrace itself for the future challenges and reduce elder dependency . |
| 78 | However , policies on the aged in Singapore have significantly heled to reduce the problems they face . |
| 79 | Such measures of saving for the rainy days will help Singaporeans to cover part of their medical expenses as they retire into old age . |
| 80 | This will really improve the allocations of funds to those who really need it from people who still can afford the healthcare in Singapore . |
| 81 | Most Singaporean are expected to accumulate sufficient amount for retirement with the help of this system . |
| 82 | As Singaporeans become more well off , research for innovative products to tap on the sliver industry ( market for the old people ) will result . |
| 83 | These programs will provide helping hands for the aging population in Singapore . |
| 84 | The Singapore social service sector has been taking care of the elderly with current housing , healthcare and job support policies . |
| 85 | It is a national medical saving policy designed to help Singaporeans build up sufficient savings to meet their hospitalisation expenses . |
| 86 | Singapore can tap on the aging population to assist in the growth of the country . " Singapore , with its well-established reputation for clinical and medical excellence , is poised to tap on Asia 's growing and aging population and entrench itself as a premier regional healthcare hub |
| 87 | To prevent the older generations from being a burden to younger generations , the Singapore government has come up with several policies and acts which allow the elderly to stay in the workforce for a longer period of time . |
| 88 | Hence , I agree that the current architectural development in Singapore has helped in the aging process to a certain extent . |
| 89 | Nevertheless , this problem has alerted the government to offer financial aids to the needy aging population in Singapore . |
| 90 | Although the standard of living in Singapore has increased , Singapore citizens are able to cope with it . |
| 91 | Since the government 's ability to provide social and welfare services for the aged is based on the tax revenue gained , diverting money to Singapore 's education system would indirectly aid the aged and improve the aging population in the long run . |
| 92 | In order to ensure that older workers are not at a disadvantage , Singapore established schemes such as smaller CPF contributions to the aged ( CPF , 2009 ) , as well as the Advantage ! |
| 93 | The Singapore government has been actively promoting awareness of health care issues among the elderly population in general . |
| 94 | Over the years , the new researches , developments and policies in Singapore have definitely helped to ease the aging process to a large extent . |
| 95 | This burgeoning trend ultimately leads to an aging population and the Singapore government has come up with several policies and development in different fields such as enhancing and inventing elderly-related products to cater to the elderly needs . |
| 96 | In conclusion , people are living longer resulting from better medical facilities . With the policies introduced to help ease the aging process , Singaporeans will be able to keep themselves occupied before formal retirement , and to be able to build up their retirement nest and retire in comfort . |
| 97 | Based on Singapore 's context , veterans ' retirement saving scheme is a feasible solution to ease the aging issue but there are still some problems that need to be carefully analysed . |
| 98 | For example in Singapore , a compulsory saving program is put in place to allow elderly to save in advance during their working years and set aside money for healthcare in the future ( Singapore Ministry of Health , 2007 ) . |
| 99 | As a result result , although financial difficulty is not a serious problem for the majority of senior Singaporeans , we still have to find greater plans so that all people are all well supported in their old lives . |
| 100 | With the foresight of our country 's leaders , sociologists and policy makers , Singapore has many solutions to help alleviate the problems and hopefully , will towards sustaining the country better . |
| 101 | The Singapore government provides health subsidies for the elderly to help the hefty medical bills . |
| 102 | In Singapore , it was mentioned in a report found on the family and community development website ) that the majority of Singaporeans have positive attitudes towards providing concern and support to the elderly . |
| 103 | Another method that the Singapore government has adopted to deal with the ageing process is the use of public pensions programs , more familiar to Singaporeans by the name of Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) . |
| 104 | The research and policies that have been continuously implemented for the aged in Singapore have worked well because of the pragmatic approach that has been taken . |
| 105 | To facilitate the aging process , the Singapore government has since build on existing policies as well as developed new ones that are pertinent to the current society . |
| 106 | Thus , there is no denying the fact that the good performance in Singapore is a convincing illustration for limiting public expenses on the elderly and investing in other fields such as education and research . |
| 107 | Central Provident Fund is a saving plan that has provided Singaporean with a sense of security in their old age . |
| 108 | Singapore sees an aging population as a potential risk and it channels sufficient funds to the aged . Nonetheless , at the same time , it focuses on other areas of development as well . |
| 109 | Singapore has a compulsory scheme for Singaporeans to save money for health-related issues through Medisave ( StateUniversity.com , n.d. ) . |
| 110 | This will indirectly help to solve some of the problems posed by an ageing population , as it will help to reduce elderly dependency and changing Singapore into an independent society where elderly will be less reliant on the government . |
| 111 | It is true that most of the aged people in Singapore have contributed to the building and development of Singapore up to this stage and it is time for the nation to look after them . |
| 112 | In addition , there are also other financial subsidies available , like the Medisave , Medishield and Medifund to keep healthcare cost affordable for Singaporeans . |
| 113 | The government has been focusing mainly on economic policies , which are more effective ways in easing the aging process among Singapore 's population . |
| 114 | Policies , such as the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , has been implemented to ensure that Singaporeans are able to support themselves after retirement . |
| 115 | Facing an ageing population , the Singapore government had done research and development to improve the ageing process . |
| 116 | Hence , medical advancement will prove to be beneficial for the aging population in Singapore . |
| 117 | With an effective government leading the way , Singapore has made much headway dealing with an ageing population . |
| 118 | In Singapore , the Central Provident Fund Board ( CPF Board ) is a saving scheme that covers working Singaporeans with a list of welfare benefits and offers a sense of security for their old age . |
| 119 | Therefore , rather than hindering the development of Singapore , the elderly provide opportunities for these sectors to develop . |
| 120 | Singapore has realized this , hence , the efforts to cater to the aging population . |
| 121 | I agree to a certain extent that the current architectural development in Singapore has helped in the aging process . |
| 122 | Thus , this will be beneficial to all the aging population in Singapore who could not afford any medical fees . |
| 123 | This concept is very much like the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) of Singapore , aiming to prepare the people through imposed sanctions on savings for retirement . |
| 124 | Hence , with these schemes , it is proven that the elderly in Singapore are given top priority in the community . |
| 125 | Secondly , money can be diverted to Singapore 's architectural developments in terms of increasing the accessibility of physical facilities for the aged . |
| 126 | In Singapore , our government has recently implemented a policy known as Lift Improvement and Facilities Enhancement , which aims to improve the living conditions of single elderly or those who have been abandoned by their families . |
| 127 | In Singapore , the government has come up with policies such as Medisave and Medishield to prepare people by saving a portion of their salary in these accounts . |
| 128 | Therefore , it is essential to ensure healthy economic growth as it will provide many alternatives to the problems Singapore faces . |
| 129 | Singapore 's government heavily subsidizes medical service and grants some flexibility in the CPF system so that the elderly can utilize part of their saving in the CPF account for hospitalization expenses . |
| 130 | Hence , the Singapore Government should invest more in programmes to cater to the mental aspect of the elderly so that the elderly can proceed to commit themselves to important and useful roles in society after retirement . |
| 131 | With this fund , most Singaporeans will retire with a sum of money which can be used to pay for medical expenses . |
| 132 | Singapore has also helped working adults to save money when they are working so that when they retire , they will still have money for living expenses . |
| 133 | All in all , Singapore has been largely successful in accommodating the rising proportion of elderly in its society . |
| 134 | In Singapore , the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) has been introduced to provide the working Singaporeans with a sense of security and confidence in their life after retirement . |
| 135 | With increased birthrate , Singapore would be able to resolve the problem of aging population in the near future . |
| 136 | Last but not least , it is important to make the elderly an asset to Singapore 's society by giving senior citizens who are physically capable the opportunity to work . |
| 137 | For example , Singapore encourages people to save for their old-age . |
| 138 | The Singapore government has done well in its foresight of the problems regarding the ageing process , but more can be done to achieve better integration between the private and public spheres . |
| 139 | Singapore has made legal amendments to improve state provisions which include social programmes for old age and sickness ( Hort and Kuhnle , 2000 ; ISSA , 2004 ) . |
| 140 | The Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) in Singapore is an inclusive social saving plan that require savings from the labour force in order to better prepare for an aging population in terms of retirement , health care , home ownership and family protection . |
| 141 | According to Singapore 's Ministry of Health , the policy is an affordable severe disability insurance scheme which provides basic finances to those who require long-term care during old age . |
| 142 | In this case , we will take Singapore as an example because of the policies being implemented for the aging . |
| 143 | Moreover , the amount of government incentives , for example the Central Providence Fund Board ( CPF ) in Singapore will be enough for them to live independently after the retirement . |
| 144 | As a result of that , the Singapore government has been actively engaged in formulating elderly-friendly policies . |
| 145 | To help Singaporeans to pay for their medical expenses , the Government has put in place a financing framework , which consists of Medisave , Medishield , ElderShield and Medifund . |
| 146 | Singapore has been lending out its helping hands to many companies to encourage the balance among work and life . |
| 147 | This ensures a constant flow of revenue for the economic stability of Singapore . |
| 148 | Without the Singaporean government ( Ministry of Community Development and Sport ) providing funds and subsidies to these organizations , some of them might not be able to survive and continue operating , especially during the economic downturn which has has badly hit Singapore recently . |
| 149 | ElderShield is viewing at the increased life expectancy of Singaporeans , which translate to people living longer as compared to in the past . Therefore , one should deposit some savings during the productive years to prepare for old age disabilities . |
| 150 | On top of that , the government has implemented mandatory schemes like Central Provident Funds to ensure that all Singaporeans have sufficient amount of money for the latter part of their lives . |
| 151 | Some intermediate and long-term care facilities like community hospitals , services like home medical and home nursing services , and aid like public subsidies in Singapore are perhaps good examples of support from the government . |
| 152 | The Singapore government has devised plans and policies to develop a strong sense of familial commitment in order to ease the aging population burden of the state . |
| 153 | For example in Singapore , the government has implemented the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) LIFE scheme that will provide lifelong income for the elderly in their retirement . |
| 154 | Apart from the two policies above , the government has also implemented the Public/Society Scheme , which acts as a 'safety net ' for elderly Singaporeans . |
| 155 | Factors such as improvements in sanitation , medical technology , and public health awareness have raised the life expectancy of Singaporeans , resulting in an ageing population in Singapore . |
| 156 | " CPF is a comprehensive social security savings plans that has provided many working Singaporeans with a sense of security and confidence in their old age . |
| 157 | Working class Singaporeans would be motivated to work hard as they know the government would contribute in taking care of them as they aged . |
| 158 | Hence , with the multi-dimensional approach taken by the government , Singaporeans are able to enjoy quality healthcare services . |
| 159 | Besides relying on the government , Singaporeans must also pay attention to the aging issue and help to play a part in reducing elderly dependence on the government . |
| 160 | For example , the Singapore government has introduced a pilot wellness programme for the elderly Singaporeans in an effort to promote a healthy lifestyle among them and also engaged them socially . |
| 161 | As recently mentioned in the media , Singapore will get a boost in funding for palliative care . |
| 162 | If these problems are rectified , then Singapore will have more innovators , and hopefully more useful innovations to improve people 's lives . |
| 163 | Therefore , current research and policies are able to cater to most of the needs of Singaporeans to prepare for old age . |
| 164 | It is also significant to create a barrier-free environment for the increasing ageing population in Singapore . |
| 165 | The Singapore government will provide subsidies for all the elderly when they seek for medical treatment . |
| 166 | Last but not least , to ensure that basic healthcare is affordable to all Singaporeans , Singapore has prepared her people with MediShield , MediSave and MediFund . |
| 167 | All these show that the elderly could still contribute to the development of Singapore . |
| 168 | With the budget given by the government , the aging population in Singapore will be given an equal entitlement to medical advancement to maintain a healthy lifestyle . |
| 169 | Not only that , all the residential committees ( RC ) and community centres in many neighbourhoods were promoting this meaningful and health program to the needy aging population in Singapore . |
| 170 | Secondly , the Singapore government has employed initiatives to help elderly to extend their working lives . |
| 171 | In view of this , the Singapore government has been actively engaged in formulating elderly-friendly policies . |
| 172 | Other than extending their retirement age , the government might consider collaborating with the insurance companies and help Singaporeans to purchase a basic insurance with their CPF to facilitate illnesses associated with old age . |
| 173 | ( Statistic Singapore , 2007 ) Since the population is unlikely to be able to replace itself in the near future ( The Business Times , 2007 ) , it is important to have policies that help to ease the ageing process by helping the elders to increase their retirement savings so as to lighten their dependency on the younger generation . |
| 174 | To ensure all Singaporeans own their homes , the government gives generous subsidies for public housing . |
| 175 | For example , in Singapore , there are priority seats for the elderly so that they do not have to stand for long hours . |
| 176 | In some relatively politically stable regions like Singapore , it is good for the government to enact the laws for the adult children to provide family support . |
| 177 | Thus , the Singapore government has provided a safety-net in which the aged can fall back on while diverting money to other areas of development . |
| 178 | Other than the lift upgrading programme , the Singapore government can direct more money into enabling housing estates to be barrier-free . |
| 179 | For example , the government could topup the Medisave accounts of the less fortunate elder Singaporeans when there are budgetary surpluses to ensure that seniors have the capacity to afford healthcare services |
| 180 | Thus , all the needy elderly in Singapore will be taken care of by the Singapore government . |
| 181 | For example , in Singapore , the Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports , often works closely with voluntary welfare organisations to provide community-based programmes and residential care for the aged . |
| 182 | In Singapore , there are many creative ideas to solve the problems that are encountered in daily lives . |
| 183 | Also , due to the advancement in the field of medicine , life expectancy in Singapore has risen too . |
| 184 | In Singapore , the government has tried using schemes such as CPF ( Central Provident Fund ) , Medisave and Medishield and even scrapped the pension scheme in order to encourage more Singaporeans to take greater responsibility for their own health . |
| 185 | As Singapore is the second fastest aging country in the world " ( Koh ) , The Singapore government has carried out many policies to ease the aging process to ensure that growing old in Singapore will be a satisfying and fulfilling experience . |
| 186 | Medisave , Medishield and Medifund Sliver are some examples of medical schemes introduced in Singapore to lighten the medical cost burden of its senior citizens . |
| 187 | Healthcare in Singapore are made affordable through the administration of the Medisave , Medishield and Medifund framework . |
| 188 | The Ministry of Health ( MOH ) has decided to make the efficient and accessible screening more affordable and convenient for all the needy elderly in Singapore . |
| 189 | Singapore has made much headway dealing with an ageing population . |
| 190 | However , the situation is improving for some countries such as Singapore . |
| 191 | Through the increment on healthcare expenditure , we can see that the government is bringing in better technologies and focusing on Singaporeans ' health . |
| 192 | Singapore makes it her top priority to create a safer environment for the elderly to live in . |
| 193 | For instance , Singapore should consider subsidizing more of the costly medical bills for the aged . |
| 194 | Although most of the Singaporeans not only pay for their own medical bills , there are other subsidy schemes which may lessen their financial burden . |
| 195 | For example , Singapore has a well connected system of foster homes and hospices providing the elderly with a comfortable environment . |
| 196 | The Home Ownership Policy ensures that Singaporeans have something set aside for their old age . |
| 197 | In Singapore , the government has enforced individual savings through mandatory Central Provident Funds ( CPF ) , which mandates that the population saves for old age . |
| 198 | This has come about due to the improvement in medical technology , public health awareness and sanitation , which in turn showed that many Singaporeans are living in better conditions than they had before . |
| 199 | Singapore has a low population and a transparent administration in compared to other Asian countries to attain high workability from this programme and hopefully , it can reach a higher level when the health care and employability policies are implemented . |
| 200 | Therefore , the government has been granting permanent residency ( PR ) status and citizenships more freely than before , as well as providing incentives such as tax rebates to attract foreign companies to invest in Singapore 's economy . |
| 201 | However , Singaporeans enjoy healthcare subsidies . |
| 202 | Like many governments around the world , the Singapore government has implemented the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) whereby a fixed percentage of its citizens ' salaries is set aside to the fund . |
| 203 | The CPF savings are entirely invested in special government bonds which are risk free and have long term interest rate.CPF has been a major source of financial supplement for most of the retired elderly . CPF ensures that all working Singaporeans have a saving that is set aside to support their needs when they retire . |
| 204 | The Singapore government has been actively educating senior citizens about the importance of healthy living and community activities and campaigns . |
| 205 | This is an ideal method which can be adopted especially in congested cities like Singapore . |
| 206 | Moving on , Singapore wants for its seniors , even the less mobile , to have a safe and accessible environment . |
| 207 | For example , Singapore 's main retirement 's scheme , the Central Provident Fund system , is one of the way of funded retirement saving . |
| 208 | Singapore has already implemented adequate schemes such as Medishield and Medisave for citizens to pay medical fees which are also heavily subsidised . |
| 209 | To help families in Singapore cope with the extensive treatment cost , the Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports ( MCYS ) has come up with services and programmes that provide affordable healthcare and eldercare services . |
| 210 | The medisave accounts assist older Singaporeans to pay for their expensive medical bills . |
| 211 | This will certainly be a win-win situation where both Singaporeans and immigrants will benefit . |
| 212 | Therefore , without the help and support from welfare organizations such as MCYS , majority of Singaporeans might not be able to handle the high cost incurred for taking care of the elderly . |
| 213 | The purpose is to provide a compulsory and comprehensive savings plan for Singaporeans . |
| 214 | In the recent years , Singapore health care institutions have tried to improve their existing methods and introduce innovative applications into the healthcare system . |
| 215 | Health care insurance schemes such as the Medisave , Medishield and Eldershield , allows Singaporeans to place aside part of his/her own income for health care needs in the future . |
| 216 | Policies and developments are in place to ensure that aging will not become a problem to the society but just a natural process in Singapore . |
| 217 | Firstly , with limited money spent on the aged , the government can build more infrastructures to attract foreign companies to set up businesses in Singapore . |
| 218 | In the context of Singapore , the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) is set up to provide Singaporeans with a retirement plan . |
| 219 | These are just some examples of how the engineering process can be substantial in meeting the needs of a targeted group , which in this case , is the elderly in Singapore . |
| 220 | In Singapore , we have the Wellness Programme to encourage healthy living through medical check-ups , regular exercise and social networking . |
| 221 | However , the Singapore government has increased the retirement age to 65 years old so that the elderly can continue to contribute to the economy . |
| 222 | In addition , in the case of Singapore , people can fully utilise their Medisave funds , which they have saved up from their working lives , to pay for their medical bills . |
| 223 | The Singapore government has been doing well in this respect . |
| 224 | Critics have validated the spending on aged by arguing for the role which the elderly hold in building and molding Singapore to where it is now . |
| 225 | Singapore can limit public spending on the aged , use the savings and indirectly reduce the total expenditure on the aged in terms of healthcare and accommodation . |
| 226 | For example , in Singapore , the Medifund set aside by the government can help the elderly to subsidise their hospital bills . |
| 227 | To ensure that healthcare remains affordable for most Singaporeans , especially the lower-income group , the government gives different rates of subsidies to the different classes of wards in hospitals . |
| 228 | Singapore was lauded by economists " for avoiding the pitfalls of erecting an expensive welfare state that diverts government funds from economic development ( Burton , 2007 ) . " |
| 229 | More importantly , the efficient system of governance in Singapore lives up to most of the promises made to its people during general elections . |
| 230 | In Singapore , the government finances health carehrough a combination of taxation and private or national insurance schemes to provide affordable healthcare to its people ( Lim , 2001 ) . However , with limited resources , the government needs to allocate resources in such a way , so that development in one area will not be at the cost of another . |
| 231 | With the current CPF structure where/ in which part of a Singaporean 's monthly wage goes into Medisave and Medishield , an 'untouchable ' fund that can only be used for hospital and most healthcare bills , Singaporeans may get complacent thinking that they have already saved enough for their medical bills in the future . |
| 232 | It aimed to transform Singapore into an elderly friendly and barrier-free environment for the elderly in the near future . |
| 233 | This also all the needy aging population in Singapore to sign up these insurance plans . |
| 234 | With all the efforts put in by the public , the government and the people , Singapore will continue to strive for the status of being a . |
| 235 | This also resulted that all the needy aging population in Singapore were given a chance to receive certain in Singapore . |
| 236 | In the case of the aging population , there are many policies up to date , such as pension system in the USA , CPF schemes in Singapore , various employment schemes , medical schemes and more . |
| 237 | In response , Singapore has devised strategies to cushion the impact . |
| 238 | Developing palliative care in Singapore gets a boost by S Ramesh , Channel NewsAsia.com |
| 239 | Nonetheless , the government has also introduced the Interim Disability Assistance Programme for the Elderly ( IDAPE ) , a government assistance scheme providing financial help to needy and disabled elderly Singaporeans , who are not eligible for ElderShield because of their age or pre-existing disabilities . |
| 240 | Secondly , direct subsidies are given to government hospitals , polyclinics and some nursing homes for the elderly to ensure that basic healthcare services are made available for all Singaporean senior citizens . |
| 241 | Needless to say , Singapore 's GDP shows economic improvement every year . |
| 242 | Singapore has encouraged people to buy an HDB flat near their parents by subsidizing a substantial amount of money . |
| 243 | The Central Provident Fund and Financing Retirement Needs of Elderly Singaporeans . |
| 244 | While Singapore strives to develop itself to become a " world-class " and self-sufficient country , it is equally important for its society to be socially stable and secure . |
| 245 | Singapore has implemented the retirement pension known as the Central Provident Fund that allow elderly to fund for their retirement right from the start of their working life . |
| 246 | Some of the facilities provided by the Singapore government were park connectors near working industries and central business district . This allows working people to enjoy working and still have a good quality of life . |
| 247 | Singapore introduced the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) in 1995 as a compulsory saving scheme to help workers to benefit in their retirement . |
| 248 | Nevertheless with proper planning , Singapore is currently handling the situation very well without compromising on the other areas of development . |
| 249 | Through Singapore 's successful CPF scheme , many elderly have been able to become flat owners . |
| 250 | A fine example of being self reliant would be the CPF scheme in Singapore , whereby a portion of one 's salary is made as a compulsory saving . |
| 251 | Singapore could set an age limit and look into the cases of each elderly person who might need the help from the government . |
| 252 | Hence , Singapore has introduced policies to ease healthcare financing , such as Medisave , Medishield , Medifund , and Eldershield ( MOH , 2007 ) . |
| 253 | For example , in Singapore , people begin to save a certain percent of his salary into their bank accounts , in order to pay the housing loan , car loan or for advanced age . |
| 254 | Not only that , if the government is scrapped financially , the government may consider setting the limit and help Singapore in its development . |
| 255 | Besides focusing all her resources on education and economy , Singapore should also be spending some of her resources on the aged . |
| 256 | Thankfully in Singapore , such issues have been ironed out and certain measures have been carefully implemented . |
| 257 | The government has also set up a mandatory saving scheme for all working Singaporeans . |
| 258 | Another scheme that the Singapore government adopted is the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) . People have to save a part of their salary and could only withdraw and use the savings upon retirement . . |
| 259 | Admitting immigrants is also a strategy that many countries such as Singapore are applying to attract talented people ; which costs far less in comparison to training high quality workers . |
| 260 | With the inflating cost of health care in Singapore , the government can not avoid implementing schemes such as Medisave and Medishield . |
| 261 | For example , in Singapore , where land is very small , engineers built a lot of condominiums and apartments to solve the problem of insufficient houses and managed to save some of the land for other purposes . |
| 262 | ( Lee,2009 ) .This is done when Singaporeans reach the age of 55 , part of their CPF savings will be transferred into an annuity which will provide a steady stream of income from the age of 65 for life . CPF is a mandatory saving scheme and therefore it ensures that the elderly will have the financial means to support their aging process . |
| 263 | It has always been for the development of Singapore and its people . |
| 264 | In view of this , the Singaporean government has in place a variety of measures to minimise the occurrence of this situation . |
| 265 | In Singapore , the Lease Buyback Scheme helps the elderly in smaller flats to monetize flat value whilst continuing to stay in the same flat . |
| 266 | Drawing from these two examples , money should be diverted to Singapore 's architecture developments as it acts as a long term investment the government has towards the issue of an aging population . |
| 267 | Currently , many governments have implemented measures which enforce compulsory savings for old age , such as the Singapore government which implementa Medisave . |
| 268 | In this case , there are positive effects associated with the engineering designs made for the HDB flats , and thus the government had implemented the solution throughout Singapore . |
| 269 | He advocates that more of such programmes will help Singaporeans feel more " rooted " and possess a greater sense of belonging , since they will then have a 'stake ' in this country . |
| 270 | Singaporeans need to learn how to be more courteous and gracious and care more for the elderly and needy . |
| 271 | However , Singaporeans still enjoy heavy subsidies in public hospital , especially in the lower class wards . |
| 272 | This solution seems to have been adapted fairly well by the Singapore government since the beginning of the 21st century , and the immigrant workers have been closely associated with the economic development of the country . |
| 273 | Singapore , for instance , welcome talented immigrants to 1 " help us reach our goals " . |
| 274 | More commonly seen as a social security savings plan , contributions are made monthly to the CPF by working Singaporeans and their employers . |
| 275 | Indeed , Singapore 's niche in R&D has resulted in the advancement in the healthcare sector providing better healthcare facilities . |
| 276 | Basically , the essence of that is to conceptualize a Singapore in which we can work , live and have fun . |
| 277 | In order to reduce this high medical advancement expenses , Ministry of Health ( MOH ) has been reaching out to the senior citizens in Singapore by implementing mobile screening buses for the monthly health check ( as cited from Health Promotion Board , 2009 ) . |
| 278 | The Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) has been the state institution to provide economic support to older Singaporeans . |
| 279 | The building of the Integrated Resort is one example of Singapore 's economic decision to spend money in this area of the economy where rewards are deemed to be centred on . |
| 280 | Such an approach can be seen in countries like Singapore , where employees are obliged to contribute part of their monthly salary to their Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) Account . |
| 281 | In Singapore , this particular self-funded retirement scheme is called " CPF Contributions " . |
| 282 | There are also other available alternatives which could be implemented to deal with the medical needs of the elderly , such as stressing filial obligations and introducing retirement schemes . |
| 283 | The four economies in East Asia --- Singapore , Hong Kong , Taiwan , and South Korea have taken the approach to being a 'light welfare state ' , in which they have achieved high standard of living without burdening the state with heavy social expenditures ( Midgley , 1986 ) . |
| 284 | Singapore was able to pull itself out of the rut from a third world country to a first world country in one generation due to its focus on well utilised human resource . |
| 285 | For example the CPF scheme in Singapore states that the account holder must have a certain amount of money , which was saved up automatically since the start of his working years , before he can withdraw the entire amount at the maturity age . |
| 286 | The Central Provident Fund is a savings account for all workers in Singapore for them to set aside a sum of 33 percent of their wages for retirement purposes . |
| 287 | Take Singapore as an example , the government has made it compulsory that every working adult must contribute a certain percentage of their monthly income into their individual CPF ( Central Provident Fund ) account in preparation for retirement . |
| 288 | For example , the Wellness Programme in Singapore provides companionship with the other seniors through activities like brisk walking , dancing , gardening or cycling . |
| 289 | In the context of Singapore , the means-testing system carried out in nursing homes assesses the financial status of the entire family . |
| 290 | This is done by implementing policies like the Medisave system , where Singaporeans have to put aside a certain percentage of their income into the Medisave account |
| 291 | Singaporeans are required to deposit a certain amount of their salaries into their CPF accounts . |
| 292 | Investing in healthcare facilities and medical insurance for the elderly will result in a high profile , risk free , user friendly , low cost and safe healthcare solution that does not just benefit the elderly but the society as a whole ( Munshi , 2007 , p.g.1 ) . |
| 293 | It is mandatory for everyone in Singapore to have a Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) account . |
| 294 | This policy has been effective as the compulsory contribution to the fund will be allocated to both medical account and general account , which does not only ensure stability but also healthcare stability . |
| 295 | In the case of Singapore , the government implemented policies such as Medisave and Medishield , to " force " her citizens to set aside money and plan for their future finances. . |
| 296 | The Singapore government has set up the Central Provident Fund ( CPF ) , one of the many pension funds around the world , which requires employees to save almost 12 % of their income in their CPF accounts . The money can not be withdrawn except for housing , education , investments or medical care purposes . |
| 297 | For example , Medisave is made compulsory for Singaporeans to contribute part of their income into saving for medical use . |

| 0 | The VHTR can not only supply heat to a broad range of high temperature and energy intensive processes but also produce electricity to meet the modern demands.Also in the end , hydrogen is produced , which clearly is a huge benefit as the energy required to produce pure hydrogen is really tremendous . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Furthermore , VHTR produces hydrogen as future fuel , which is environmentally-friendly and can effectively solve the energy shortage as well . |
| 2 | The very high temperature reactor , belonging to the new generation , has a high efficiency of energy conversion and the applications can be extend to hydrogen generation . |
| 3 | This co-generation of electricity and hydrogen is made possible by the high operating temperature of up to 1000oC for the VHTR which allows for the efficient production of hydrogen by thermo-chemical processes . |
| 4 | Furthermore , the ability of the VHTR to produce hydrogen provides another source of clean energy which we could utilize to power our economies and cars which are the main contributors of greenhouse emissions . |
| 5 | In addition , the abundant heat produced in the VHTR system raises the efficiency of hydrogen gas production to a significant level . |
| 6 | By using the very high temperature reactor ( VHTR ) , hydrogen can be used as the fuel of the future to replace fossil fuels . |
| 7 | VHTR outperforms other reactors because of its potential to produce hydrogen . |
| 8 | VHTR produces hydrogen as a byproduct , thus increasing the chances of utilizing the reactors for other energy sources . |
| 9 | For instance , since VHTR is specially designed to operate under a very high temperature , it will produce hydrogen , which is a source of clean fuel . |
| 10 | This means that VHTR generates both electrical and hydrogen fuel as a clean the energy for the future . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Firstly , what distinguishes the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) as compared to the other designs would be that it does not provides only energy , which can be converted to electricity , but hydrogen as a byproduct as well . |
| 12 | It uses high core outlet temperatures that enable hydrogen and electricity production . |
| 13 | Furthermore , the high power efficiency of the VHTR makes it economical to operate and the production of hydrogen provide a source of revenue for the state as well as another alternative source of clean energy which reduces greenhouse emissions . |
| 14 | VHTR is not only able to produce electrical power but also produce hydrogen via electrolysis of water at high temperature . |
| 15 | However , the VHTR offers high thermal efficiency in supplying electricity and producing hydrogen , alongside process heat applications . |
| 16 | Supporters and experts believe that nuclear hydrogen production by VHTR has the potential to meet the nuclear energy needs of the future . |
| 17 | It has better performance as well since it has high efficiency and both electricity and hydrogen as its reactive product . |
| 18 | On the other hand , instead of being a threat , the high temperatures can be used to produce hydrogen , which can eventually be converted into electricity for the public , making VHTR more efficient compared to coal reactors and even some of the other Generation IV reactor concepts . |
| 19 | Furthermore , hydrogen produced in VHTR can be commercialised as clean fuel for transportation to make profits ( U.S . |
| 20 | The VHTR is a better choice due to its capability to generate hydrogen gas which can be used as fuel and due to its excellent fail-safe concept which may prevent an adversity should it arise . |
| 21 | Secondly , due to the high operating temperature of VHTR , the large amount of heat produced can be used for many purposes , ranging from providing domestic energy supplies and refining crude oil , to providing energy for hydrogen production . |
| 22 | Hydrogen can be used to generate power for machines like hydrogen-powered cars which are clean for the environment . |
| 23 | The VHTR has an open fuel cycle and can supply electricity , hydrogen and heat at a highly efficient level . |
| 24 | Furthermore the high energy efficiency and potential uses of hydrogen , gives it more economic advantages over the renewable energies . |
| 25 | Furthermore , VHTR produces hydrogen fuel that can be used to produce electrical energy . |
| 26 | This is because nuclear reactor plants have many advantages such as being able to produce both hydrogen fuel and a large amount of electricity from a small amount of fuel at the same time . |
| 27 | This high outlet temperature allows it to be highly efficient ( > 50 % ) in energy generation and also gives it the ability to produce hydrogen ( OECD Nuclear Energy Agency , 2009 ) . |
| 28 | Another significant performance of the very high temperature is that it can generate hydrogen from water , which can be used in seawater desalination . |
| 29 | In addition , it is able to produce hydrogen gas which is useful because of hydrogen 's role in emission-free hydrogen fuel cells that can be used in transportation . |
| 30 | Therefore , the VHTR design is superior as it produces more energy and hydrogen gas |
| 31 | Furthermore , VHTR is designed to efficiently produce both electricity and hydrogen at the same time . |
| 32 | VHTR plants are able to produce hydrogen for fuel using high-temperature steam electrolysis , which breaks apart the bonds of water molecules ; this process is 50 percent more energy-efficient as compared to existing hydrogen production methods ( Svoboda , 2009 ) . |
| 33 | As hydrogen is capable of replacing fossil fuel as an energy source ( Bose , Malbrunot , 2006 ) , having nuclear plants that produce hydrogen will relieve us of our dependence on the fast depleting fossil fuel for energy . |
| 34 | However , despite the actual construction cost in building the reactors , VHTR would be economically beneficial because of its high efficiency in electricity and hydrogen production . |
| 35 | Furthermore , the VHTR offers high thermal efficiency , while retaining the capability of hydrogen production and utilization in heat process applications . |
| 36 | Consequently , many countries have regarded VHTR as the energy source of the future , because it produces hydrogen gas as a complimentary energy source that is reusable . |
| 37 | Another property of the new nuclear plant is the production of hydrogen fuel together with electricity . |
| 38 | Lastly , because of the higher temperature , it is possible to produce hydrogen gas from water thermochemically ( Elder and Allen , 2009 ) . |
| 39 | It is because it can co-generate hydrogen and electricity with superior efficiency , tackling the fuel crisis issue head on . |
| 40 | The VHTR system is highly ranked in efficiency not just because of its high nuclear production but also the large hydrogen production , and such a by product can also be used in many other industries . |
| 41 | Therefore , in the long run , it is profitable to build the VHTR because it can produce both electricity and hydrogen through a very efficient process . |
| 42 | In addition , due to the high temperature and pressure involved in VHTR , conversion rate is improved and this produces hydrogen gas as well which can be used to fuel green cars of the future . |
| 43 | Moreover , by processing electricity , hydrogen can also be generated with electrolysis by the SCWR , which will support the development of the hydrogen industry in the following decades and make additional profits . |
| 44 | In addition , as the new nuclear reactor works at high temperature , scientists can utilize it to produce hydrogen from thermochemical reaction of water , which is material for other industries . |
| 45 | The efficiency of the MSR will improve in the near future as scientists are working to increase the output of hydrogen and electricity ( NERAC ) . |
| 46 | In addition , the production of hydrogen as a by-product is indeed very attractive for tomorrow 's energy market . |
| 47 | Therefore , the ability of producing hydrogen is a great advantage to VHTR . |
| 48 | The high operating temperature also enables hydrogen production using thermochemical process , with superior efficiency . |
| 49 | In addition , VHTR offers an alternate clean fuel , hydrogen . |
| 50 | Last but not least , in addition to hydrogen production , recycling of radioactive fuel in a fuel cycle helps to reduce the amount of nuclear waste compared to those produced by current reactors and generating high quantities of electricity makes the use of VHTR more economically in our daily life . |
| 51 | Besides , the VHTR can gain hydrogen through regular running , which could be converted into electricity for cars and homes . |
| 52 | In summary , it can be concluded that nuclear power is the answer to the current energy crisis and the VHTR is an ideal candidate because it not only produces thermal and electric energy efficiently but also provides hydrogen which can help decrease CO2 emissions . |
| 53 | If VHTR is widely used , the amount of hydrogen-production could be enough to become a major fuel that can be another solution to the vehicle power system . |
| 54 | And due to high temperature , the reactor generates electricity and hydrogen simultaneously , superior to the sodium-cooled fast reactors and critical-water-cooled reactors which can only generate electricity . |
| 55 | The reactor operates by using a high temperature exchanger and electrical heater to avoid efficiency penalty and enable the generation of electricity and hydrogen at the same time . |
| 56 | In conclusion , VHTR is a very promising energy system to provide us electricity and hydrogen cogeneration . |
| 57 | Actually , according to the report from DISCOVERY : VHTR plants could even produce hydrogen for fuel using high-temperature steam electrolysis , which breaks apart the bonds of water molecules . This process is 50 percent more energy-efficient than existing hydrogen production methods . |
| 58 | Since hydrogen is one of the clearest forms of energy in the world and it is not easy to produce , the heat produced by VHTR can help to solve this big problem . |
| 59 | The VHTR can produce electricity and hydrogen efficiently in a much safer way without producing hazardous waste . |
| 60 | It provides high-efficiency operation , produces not only heat but also hydrogen productions , has lower risk , and offers enhanced waste minimization . |
| 61 | Besides , due to the high temperature , hydrogen , which can be used in transportation and other industry is also produced from water splitting ( Elder , 2009 ) . |
| 62 | Hydrogen fuel cells have been identified as the energy source of the future , so the capability to produce hydrogen gives NGNPs an edge over existing coal and gas plants . |
| 63 | First of all , engineering design processes help to make good use of new energy resources like hydrogen energy and solar energy . |
| 64 | The hydrogen produced by the reactor will have further uses as fuel for other systems where its combustion will not produce any greenhouse gases . |
| 65 | Therefore , it would be better if we develop reactors that can generate hydrogen fuel rather than ones that can only generate electricity . |
| 66 | The VHTR also produces hydrogen which could be used as another source of fuel for power plants or could be sold to industries which use it , hence generates a source of revenue for the state . |
| 67 | If fact hydrogen is also an alternate form of clean and efficient energy . |
| 68 | Furthermore , the VHTR produces hydrogen in addition to electricity . |
| 69 | Another great benefit under the extremely high temperature reactors is that the reactors can be used to split hydrogen from water thermochemically . |
| 70 | On one hand , nuclear energy has the advantage of high efficiency , non--greenhouse-gas emission and the by-product hydrogen , which is supposed to be another ideal energy . |
| 71 | Hydrogen production , an energy--intensive process , is important as hydrogen holds enormous promise as a power source for the future generation . |
| 72 | Reactor for processing heat , hydrogen and electricity . |
| 73 | It offers the potential for the cogeneration of electricity and hydrogen , alongside process heat . |
| 74 | The same reason of high operating temperature gives birth to VHTR 's second advantage which is the produce of hydrogen . |
| 75 | For example , heat can be used for petrochemical reprocessing while hydrogen can be used as fuel in fuel cell plants to produce even more electricity . |
| 76 | Besides , the VHTR can produce not only heat but also hydrogen productions . |
| 77 | Nuclear energy can generate hydrogen which is important for petroleum refinement and can be used as an oil alternative in transportation . |
| 78 | In addition , the VHTR produces useful hydrogen gas and is environmentally friendly . |
| 79 | For example , hydrogen produced in the nuclear reactor would be used to power the next generation hydrogen fuelled cars . |
| 80 | In order to handle the energy crisis , the research and development of hydrogen energy is an important section . |
| 81 | It supplies heat with high core outlet temperatures , which enables applications such as hydrogen production or process heat for the petrochemical industry . |
| 82 | It has high-efficiency electricity production and hydrogen generation , safety and comparable economics . |
| 83 | In conclusion , VHTR has a high-efficiency system that can produce electricity and hydrogen , and it has a high rank of safety . |
| 84 | This is a valuable process because hydrogen-production can be further processed to other types of fuel which is suitable for use in vehicles . |
| 85 | The VHTR can also produce both electricity and hydrogen through a very efficient process , so the cost of running a VHTR will not be as high as other reactors in the long run . |
| 86 | The GFR is primarily developed to produce electricity and is able to support hydrogen production from water . |
| 87 | Hence , the generation of hydrogen is an advantage of VHTR . |
| 88 | Moreover , the heat produced by the Gen IV reactors can be used to produce hydrogen from water or supplied to the petrochemical industry ( The very-high-temperature reactor , n.d. ) . |
| 89 | Besides , nuclear reactors produce a great output of electricity and hydrogen . |
| 90 | The fact that it is also able to produce both electricity and hydrogen makes it all the more practical . |
| 91 | On the other hand , for solid-state hydrogen storage , it requires materials that can absorb hydrogen quickly and massively . |
| 92 | VHTR , the only Generation 4 reactor with high enough temperature to help the electrolysis process forming useful hydrogen gas which can then be used as fuel source for hydrogen fuel cars . |
| 93 | To sum up , the research and development of the storage of hydrogen will meet human 's need and make a great contribution ; and the engineering design progress plays an importantt part in it . |
| 94 | The Generation IV VHTR system should be fully developed since the VHTR system intends to increase safety , efficiency and reliability as well as provide other benefits such as hydrogen production . |
| 95 | It can therefore be used as a significant source of electrical power and hydrogen generation or as a heat source . |
| 96 | VHTR could even generate hydrogen at the same time under its high temperature . |
| 97 | It is true that the VHTR can produce not only electricity but also hydrogen ; however , the electricity is more widely used than hydrogen nowadays . |
| 98 | Also , it will produce hydrogen which can be used as another type of fuel . |
| 99 | Firstly , the VHTR has a core outlet temperature of about 1000 degrees Celsius this high temperature increases the efficiency of the reactor and also enables us to use it for applications such as hydrogen production ( VHTR , Generation IV technology forum ) . |
| 100 | Hydrogen is getting increasingly important because of its potential to be used in fuel cells . |
| 101 | The new nuclear plants will not only generate huge amount of electricity , but also a considerable amount of hydrogen which is also a prosperous and useful green energy . |
| 102 | The more hydrogen is put into use , the better the situation could be . |
| 103 | Moreover due to VHTR 's high operating temperature of above 1000 ° C , it offers the potential for cogeneration of electricity and hydrogen , alongside process heat applications ( " Very-High-Temperature Reactor " , n.d ) . |
| 104 | The hydrogen gas generated as a by-product can also be sold to hydrogen industry to power hydrogen fuel vehicles . |
| 105 | Hence , VHTR is actually more profitable to operate as electricity , heat and hydrogen can be obtained altogether . |
| 106 | Thus , hydrogen can replace fossil fuels as a source of fuel . |
| 107 | Thirdly , the VHTR produces a by-product , hydrogen gas , which is considered as another environmental-friendly source of energy . |
| 108 | Besides this , in the process of nuclear reaction , a large amount of hydrogen can be generated for the use in petroleum refinement and also as new advanced fuel in transportation ( Vilim , 2007 ) . |
| 109 | Experts see hydrogen as the future fuel and large amounts of hydrogen are needed to convert heavy oils and tar sands to liquid fuel . |
| 110 | According to Hylko ( 2008 ) , the VHTR has relatively higher efficiency for heat transfer and hydrogen production . |
| 111 | In addition , it is cost effective because of its economic production of hydrogen . |
| 112 | As a result , many countries that largely depend on oil for their energy needs realise that hydrogen might be the fuel of the future and solution to their problems . |
| 113 | Generation IV reactors , namely the VHTR , generates not only electricity , but also hydrogen . |
| 114 | As Butler ( 2004 ) mentioned , the very high temperature reactors can be used to split hydrogen from water thermochemically , which can meet the need for hydrogen fuel of the future . |
| 115 | One of the nuclear reactors is the very high temperature reactor ( VHTR ) which is used to produce both hydrogen and electricity . |
| 116 | The high temperature and pressure , which give birth to the advantage of producing hydrogen , on the other hand , mean a high risk of accident . |
| 117 | Contrary to the opponents ' concerns about nuclear power safety , cost and sustainability , it has been shown in the above that the generation IV nuclear power supply under the GFR concept is able to achieve higher safety goals , lower its building cost and make great economic contribution by splitting hydrogen , and exhibit improved sustainability . |
| 118 | With this high core outlet temperature , VHTR enables applications like hydrogen production or electricity cogeneration for petrochemical industries [ 3 ] . |
| 119 | First of all , the biggest advantage of VHTR over othert reactors is that it not only generates electricity but also Hydrogen . |
| 120 | Because the eco-car runs on hydrogen gas , this will lead to the reduction in the usage of petroleum and thus save the natural resources for better usage . |
| 121 | With hydrogen generation made possible , the VHTR can replace future coal fueled hydrogen production plants , taking over the role of supplying energy for other hydrogen intensive industries and may also be able to generate hydrogen as a source of fuel . |
| 122 | Although the cost of hydrogen replacing gasoline is huge , there will surely be more benefits to mankind due to high efficiency . |
| 123 | Besides electricity , VHTR also produces heat and hydrogen which can be harnessed for other industrial applications . |
| 124 | In addition , the hydrogen that is produced by the VHTR can be used in fuel cells . |
| 125 | It supplies heat with high core outlet temperatures ( about 1000 ) which enables applications such as hydrogen production or process heat for the petrochemical industry or others . |
| 126 | Moreover , VHTR produces hydrogen for vehicles ' fuel . |
| 127 | Another advantage of VHTR over SWCR is the ability to produce hydrogen without consuming fossil fuels or emitting greenhouse gasses ( Forsberg , Peterson & Ott , 2004 ) . |
| 128 | The very high temperature reactor can generate both electricity and hydrogen and it is 50 % more effective than the conventional reactor and it allows countries to be self sufficient in terms of energy . |
| 129 | In short , cheap material , additional product ( hydrogen ) and high performance ( property of nuclear power ) make the Molten Salt Reactor system as well as nuclear power most efficient . |
| 130 | Furthermore , it gives significant economic and environmental advantages as it is more energy efficient and it also produces hydrogen which could be used for other purposes . |
| 131 | Supporters argue that with nuclear power plants being built , it will contribute to countries by the use of hydrogen being produced for other important uss such as direct fuel or as feedstock ( Farbman & Brecher , 1975 ) . |
| 132 | According to the design , VHTR could squeeze 50 % more electricity from the same amount of fuel comparing to the traditional reactors and it also can produce hydrogen at the same time which is considered as an ideal energy . |
| 133 | This is because hydrogen gas is produced during the nuclear reaction process . |
| 134 | For VHTR , water will be electrolyzed more fully compared with the other ones , so the hydrogen production is the largest . |
| 135 | As the reactor operates at such a high temperature , it can be used to split hydrogen from water thermochemically . |
| 136 | As a reactor which also produces hydrogen which is combustible , it is likely for the VHTR to explode at high temperatures . |
| 137 | VHTR generates electrical energy in two ways , from the nuclear reactant directly and from hydrogen fuel . |
| 138 | The main difference between VHTR and SCWR is that the former generates hydrogen as a by-product . |
| 139 | As an introduction , the Very High Temperature Reactor concept uses either a prismatic-block or pebble bed reactor design graphite-moderated core with uranium fuel cycle to generate electricity and produce hydrogen through a thermochemical process . |
| 140 | On the other hand , VHTR technology has both electricity and hydrogen output . |
| 141 | The SCWR also creates hydrogen , which can be sold to the hydrogen economy , resulting in the reduction of operating costs ( Buongiorno , 2003 ) . |
| 142 | Apart from this , the hydrogen fuel has higher combustion energy and lighter weight . |
| 143 | The second advantage of VHTR is that it does not only produce electricity but at the same time create hydrogen fuel as well ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 144 | Also it produces useful hydrogen as a by-product . |
| 145 | VHTR system is highly ranked in economics because of its high hydrogen production efficiency ( A Technology Roadmap for Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems , 2002 , p. 22 ) . |
| 146 | Unlike elctrical cars ' battery engine which needs more time to be fully charged , the Hydrogen powered cars need much less time to be filled with hydrogen fuel . |
| 147 | They use fuel cells that convert hydrogen to electricity , which is then stored in batteries and is used to assist in the power surge required when climbing a slope or overtaking . |
| 148 | With a high efficiency in transferring heat into power , the VHTR costs only US $ 1 to produce 1 kilogram hydrogen , which is much lower than SFRU.S . |
| 149 | The huge amount of heat produced from the nuclear cores can also be used in refineries , for petro chemistry , metallurgy and hydrogen production ( U.S . |
| 150 | Besides , VHTR can also be used to split hydrogen from water thermo-chemically . |
| 151 | Even though it might prove costly at the beginning it pays off well as it produces both electricity and hydrogen fuel instead of electricity only . |
| 152 | Although the mass conversion to full hydrogen-fuelled vehicles might be costly , it will bring more advantages as a long-term strategy . |
| 153 | On the other hand , the VHTR produces both electricity and hydrogen . |
| 154 | Moreover , the heat produced during the processing of uranium is used for hydrogen production and desalinization ( Very High Temperature Reactor , n.d. ) . |
| 155 | Based on studies ( Elder & Allen , 2009 ) , these nuclear reactors are capable of replacing gasoline with hydrogen in the long run with its enhanced efficiencies . |
| 156 | In addition , the high temperature of the lead-cooled fast reactors can also be used for thermochemical hydrogen production , which would contribute to reducing the cost as well . |
| 157 | So the Very-High-Temperature-Reactor ( VHTR ) is believed to play an important role in America 's energy crisis , because it can help to reduce the dependence on oil for its over 2 million normal cubic meters hydrogen production per day . |
| 158 | It not only generates 50 % more electricity than conventional plants from the same amount of fuel , but can also split hydrogen from water , which is another fuel for the future . |
| 159 | In addition , VHTR systems are economically cheap , safe and reliable due to its high hydrogen production efficiency and inherent safety features of the fuel and reactors [ 4 ] . |
| 160 | Last but not least , VHTR will not only produce electricity but also hydrogen . |
| 161 | The final argument advanced by the opponent is that while high temperature makes electricity and hydrogen production easier , it also poses a threat of explosion . |
| 162 | As the VHTR is able to produce two products , hydrogen and electricity , concurrently , it helps to reduce the cost of producing both products separately . |
| 163 | High temperature processed in the reactor can be used as a condition to yield hydrogen from sulphur-iodine cycle , which is a series of thermo-chemical processes that will fail without a sufficient source of heat . |
| 164 | In VHTR , in order to produce hydrogen for similar usage , it requires another indirect cycle that consists of a heat exchanger . |
| 165 | VHTR also incorporates the indirect combined cycle design for electricity generation , enabling a common heat source to be used for electricity and hydrogen generation . |
| 166 | It is because it makes use of the thermo-chemical iodine- sulfur ( I-S ) process , so that hydrogen can be generated from heat and water . |
| 167 | At the same time , it can split hydrogen from water , which can be alternative fuel for transport to deal with oil shortage ( Nuclear Power 's New Dawn , 2004 ) . |
| 168 | While electricity can be used to power up houses , hydrogen can be converted into fuel cells which can power up automobiles and vehicles . |
| 169 | Besides , hydrogen technology is developing rapidly . |
| 170 | Thus , the VHTR produces electricity , hydrogen and a large amount of concurrently in . |
| 171 | Nuclear heat for hydrogen production : Coupling a very high/high reactor to a hydrogen production plant . |
| 172 | In addition , hydrogen power output of VHTR is an additional incentive that VHTR is worth researching . |
| 173 | In comparison to other hydrogen producing methods , the VHTR produces hydrogen at a lower cost . |
| 174 | As hydrogen gas has zero carbon dioxide emission , it has a potential to replace petroleum as a clean fuel for transportation . |
| 175 | For people who are obssesed with the VHTR , one main reason would be it allows an easy way to generate a clean natural energy , Hydrogen . |
| 176 | Moreover , it offers non-electrical fuel source , hydrogen , which prolongs the time needed to develop another source . |
| 177 | But this is no problem because of the nature of the VHTR.Running at very high temperatures of about 700-900 ° C , the VHTR can supply energy to split water into oxygen and hydrogen , providing hydrogen for the nation 's industry . |
| 178 | By using fuel cell , hydrogen gas can be converted to electricity , replacing the uses of fuel or gasoline . |
| 179 | In addition , the close helium or nitrogen Brayton power cycles are adopted thus allowing the high temperature generated by the MSRs to be efficiently used . |
| 180 | Furthermore , comparing the Generation-IV reactors with older nuclear reactors , the new reactors are much more efficient . Some of them , like the VHTR , produce hydrogen at the same time ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 181 | It is because the new reactors could produce hydrogen as well which is an important source of fuel ( Butler , 2004 ) but expensive to produce . |
| 182 | Some upcoming plants are the lead-cooled fast reactor for example , which produces both electricity and hydrogen as its products . |
| 183 | At the same time , VHTR also produces useful hydrogen gases as by-products . |
| 184 | Hydrogen fuel is considered the energy for the future since it is carbon-free , non-toxic , less of a fire risk and more highly efficient than petrol . |
| 185 | Initial study indicates that with the high operating temperature of Generation IV reactors , it will generate hydrogen and electricity ( Bulter , 2004 ) . |
| 186 | Hydrogen is much needed in motor vehicle industries where future vehicles will most likely run on hydrogen fuels when coal and oil eventually runs out . |
| 187 | Nuclear heat for hydrogen production : Coupling a very high/high temperature reactor to a hydrogen production plant . |
| 188 | Another fascinating fact is that the VHTR 's waste goes back to its repository and that it can produce hydrogen from water due to its high working temperature . |
| 189 | Moreover , the processed heat that the nuclear reactor produces can also be used in other industrial areas such as hydrogen production , water desalination and the treatment of crude oil ( Jacques , 2008 ) . |
| 190 | The basic reason is that under such a high temperature , water can be electrolyzed smoothly , turning into hydrogen and oxygen . |
| 191 | The only production of combusting hydrogen is water and burning the same amount of hydrogen or other fuels , we get much more energy from hydrogen . |
| 192 | Hydrogen gas has been produced,but the transmission is still hard work.We need a high-pressure and low-temperature surroundings to let the hydrogen remain in liquid form.But it is very hard to make that kind of surroundings in normal life.We need a kind of catalyst to make the hydrogen be liquid at normal temperature and pressure . |
| 193 | means that VHTR can produce 50 % more electricity from the same amount of fuel compared to existing reactors . In addition , it can be used to produce hydrogen which holds much potential as a fuel of the future . |
| 194 | As for VHTR , it produces both electricity and hydrogen from only heat and water by applying the steam reformer technology . |
| 195 | MSRs are also much more efficient than helium-cooled Very High Temperature Reactors ( VHTRs ) operating at similar conditions , in terms of electricity conversion . |
| 196 | VHTR uses Helium as its coolant instead today 's water-cooled reactors and transfers energy into hydrogen which surely saves the source . |
| 197 | In addition , the production of hydrogen during the process does pose hazards to the nuclear plant . |
| 198 | And the most important application is hydrogen production . |
| 199 | Furthermore , it is also able to produce hydrogen , a side product which is useful too . |
| 200 | Another is to use special materials for solid-state hydrogen storage . |
| 201 | In addition , hydrogen is not the only by product , heat and electricity will also be generated during the nuclear processing . |
| 202 | However , the investment in hydrogen fuel will bring us more pros than cons . |
| 203 | The economic production of hydrogen ( H2 ) by thermochemical cycles , can reduce the maintenance cost for operating the VHTR . |
| 204 | As we all know , hydrogen is clean energy which has a very high calorific value . |
| 205 | The most popular one is Fuel cell which is made from hydrogen . |
| 206 | One is to use full-scale high-pressure hydrogen tanks for vehicles . |
| 207 | These reactors can also be used to split hydrogen from water thermochemically . |
| 208 | On the one hand , to store hydrogen under pressure is a rather well-known technique . |
| 209 | Hydrogen is a carbon-free and non-toxic fuel that could probably replace oil , especially for transport applications . |
| 210 | The heat and high amount of electricity generated by the molten salt reactor , on the other hand , can be said to be constant and can be further tapped into for the production of hydrogen ( Duffery , 2005 ) . |
| 211 | VHTR is also an environmentally friendly plant as its main emissions are electricity and hydrogen , in fact , it does not produce any material waste as compared to other reactors . |
| 212 | There is a rather mature and secure electricity transit and selling system in the world , while hydrogen transit is still a problem waiting to be solved . |
| 213 | In term of cost , VHTR able to generate electricity and hydrogen for the price of one , which is estimated to be roughly $ 1 billion . |
| 214 | Alternative energy sources such as wind , solar , hydrogen as well as water should be used instead for a more secure future for the next generation . |
| 215 | This energy source is hydrogen . |
| 216 | Consequently , safety measures such as implementing a maximum of 100kg storage of hydrogen near the nuclear reactor and transporting hydrogen gas in double-walled pipes away from the reactor to storage plant at a safe distance ( Satyen-Baindur , 2008 ) . |
| 217 | They also raise concerns about corresponding infrastructures such as " hydrogen-fuelled cars " and " hydrogen-stations " which have not yet been widely implemented . |
| 218 | However , the use of hydrogen tanks in vehicles , and in particular the challenge of using very high pressures , require advanced technology . |
| 219 | It can also be effectively used for manufacturing hydrogen as well as for actinide management . |
| 220 | Because it does not include waste recycling and produces both electricity and hydrogen . |
| 221 | MSR uses a multi-reheat helium Brayton cycle which is a simplified balance of plants with lower cost and improved efficiency . |
| 222 | With this kind of hydrogen energy,a lot of problems that obsess us today will be solved.No wars for energy will break . |
| 223 | As we know that hydrogen can be made by electrolysing water,so we need electrical energy.We first convert solar energy into electrical energy . |
| 224 | A car which runs on hydrogen does not need heavy materials and much space for its fuel tank . |
| 225 | Particularly , the power output of the Molten Salt Reactor system includes both electricity and hydrogen , which can also be used for other purposes . |
| 226 | Ultimately , if we are talking about performance based on the total power output of the plant , ( LFR ) definitely has an edge over ( SFR ) , which operates at lower temperature and does not produce hydrogen as part of its process . |
| 227 | Technology : hydrogen-fuelled vehicles . |
| 228 | This system can be applied to hydrogen production , petrochemistry , electricity generation and so on ( U.S DOE Nuclear Energy Research advisory Committee and the Generation IV international Forum , 2002 ) . |
| 229 | Many countries around the world that largely depend on oil and fossil fuels for their energy needs are betting on hydrogen as the fuel of the future , using fuel cells to convert the gas into electricity for cars and homes . |
| 230 | Hydrogen production needs a high temperature of 700C , so heat from VHTR can be transferred to hydrogen production plant but SWCR does not produce high enough temperature . |
| 231 | There is a demand for hydrogen gas which may become a fuel for cars in the future . |
| 232 | In spite of the controversies , the " very-high-temperature reactor " which is independent of reprocessing nuclear waste and generates hydrogen as by-product , is the most feasible one among the six . |
| 233 | On the other hand , VHTR discharges no carbon dioxide and the hydrogen it produces is the cleanest fuel ever found . |
| 234 | Besides , from a practical point of view , electricity is more widely used than hydrogen . |
| 235 | This is ideal for countries largely dependent on oil import because hydrogen is an important oil alternative used in fuel cells . |
| 236 | What is more , GFR also gets hydrogen production . |
| 237 | Alternative and renewable fuels include both biofuels and hydrogen fuel . |
| 238 | The hydrogen gas is believed to a future source of fuel which can be sold to other countries as another source of income . |
| 239 | It is proven scientifically that hydrogen could be generated in the VHPR system . |
| 240 | Besides , VHTR can be used to separate hydrogen from water thermodynamically at the operating range of temperature 700-900 ° C . |
| 241 | There is an abundant supply of sources of biofuels and hydrogen fuels . |
| 242 | During the procedure , the heat generated when hydrogen becomes water can also be used in industry processes . |
| 243 | Hydrogen fuel refers to using hydrogen gas as an energy carrier ( Gupta , 2009 ) . |
| 244 | Hydrogen , another non-polluting fuel , could be used in smaller-scale energy generation as seen in its application in hybrid- cars . |
| 245 | Hydrogen can be used as fuel cells to convert the gas into electricity for cars and homes . |
| 246 | Hence , we can feel safe to use the electricity and drive cars powered by Hydrogen which is supplied by VHTR . |
| 247 | the reactor can separate hydrogen gas from water thermodynamically during the nuclear reaction at an extremely high temperature of about 700-900 degrees celcius . |
| 248 | Hydrogen is also a clean fuel as it does not emit green house gasses when it is burned . It is also an alternate fuel which could be used to power vehicles in the future . |
| 249 | Moreover , besides electricity power , GFR concept plants can also produce hydrogen ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 250 | Being the lightest element of all , Hydrogen is capable of producing the highest ratio of energy-to-mass ratio ( Schlapbach , 2009 ) . |
| 251 | Thus , by using this hydrogen , the government can reduce the cost of importing oil . |
| 252 | Nonetheless , VHTR are almost emission free as nuclear power contributes the biggest portion of the world 's electricity from non-greenhouse gas emitting sources ( n.d ) . |
| 253 | For instance , in the process of consuming hydrogen fuel , greenhouse gases will be generated , which may contribute to global warming . |
| 254 | It can be hazardous if hydrogen leaks , and even cause disasters if hydrogen burns and explodes . |
| 255 | For the lead-cooled fast reactor , it has new features to increase the longevity of core life , and scientists have come up with the idea of creating a medium size reactor to reduce the cost . |
| 256 | However , it is not important , as no research has proven that the method of generating hydrogen can achieve a higher efficiency compared with generating electricity . |
| 257 | Unlike other reactors in Generation IV reactors such as the gas-cooled fast reactors ( GFR ) and the lead-cooled fast reactors ( LFR ) , although the LFR and GFR can generate electricity and hydrogen , the power output efficiency is not as high as the VHTR . |
| 258 | In addition to this , it can also be suited to provide hydrogen upon further modifications . |
| 259 | Furthermore , ( LFR ) produces hydrogen as part of its processes which ( SFR ) does not . |
| 260 | Hydrogen energy is this kind of energy.There is only water after it burns and hydrogen contains a lot of heat.So we need to try hard to invent a machine to make hydrogen energy . |
| 261 | It runs on a hydrogen fuel cell that drives the electric wheel hub motor . |
| 262 | The first way is changing the way energy is generated , such as changing petrol engines which produce carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons to fuel cells which only produce water and oxygen . |
| 263 | However , one disadvantage of the SWCR is that it , in fact , is the only concept among the GenIV reactors that does not produce hydrogen fuel . |
| 264 | However , NGNPs are not only capable of generating electricity like coal and gas power plants , they can also simultaneously produce hydrogen ( GIF , 2008 ) . |
| 265 | This is because the explosion of hydrogen could damage the nuclear reactor . |
| 266 | Another example is that of hydro-powered cars , which actually have been produced but not used widely due to the fact that hydrogen is flammable , so there are still big concerns of consumers ' safety . |
| 267 | In addition , Bouchard ( 2008 ) mentions the uses of process heat for various types of industries such as chemical plants , petroleum refineries and hydrogen production . |
| 268 | The public may argue that the conversion from petroleum-fuelled to hydrogen-fuelled would be very complicated and costly . |
| 269 | This property , which can never be reached by the current reactors , serves to preserve the environment by replacing the contaminating fossil fuels using hydrogen gas . |
| 270 | Moreover , electric cars require long periods of time to recharge compared to hydrogen . |
| 271 | Furthermore , carmakers have tried to promote cars using the hydrogen technology , which may still require years of development . |
| 272 | As we know , the storage and transportation of hydrogen have been two major factors that restrict the wide use of hydrogen . |
| 273 | How to store hydrogen safely is one of the difficult points among this section , so it should be given priority . |
| 274 | At temperatures of about 700-900 , hydrogen can be split from water thermochemically ( Nature , 2004 ) . |
| 275 | Instead , Hydrogen fuel cell was brought in to substitute the electric battery . |
| 276 | Besides , the heat it generates is also useful for refineries , perochemistry and metallurgy ( The Generation IV and Nuclear Hydrogen Initiative Programs , para.3 ) . |
| 277 | The concept of hydrogen fuel is not new and its efficiency is of course nothing to be doubted . |
| 278 | For example , the team that invented hydrogen fueled cars faced several setbacks before they could attain their goal . |
| 279 | Besides the exciting news about hydrogen storage technology , we still need to pay attention to its dangers . |
| 280 | Many countries that depend on oil are also placing hopes on hydrogen as the new generation fuel for cars and perhaps home use ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 281 | However , it is an undeniable fact that most people do still depend largely on fuel to run , imagine planes powered by electricity , though it may be possible in the near future , it may not generate the power equivalence of hydrogen fuel given the same storage space . |
| 282 | Furthermore , recycling nuclear waste and producing hydrogen power are under dispute . |
| 283 | For instance , the reactor and gas turbine system is separated from the hydrogen production plant during abnormal events at a hydrogen production plant . |
| 284 | Critics may consider the use of hydrogen irrelevant to future society since there are already electric cars in place . |
| 285 | However , considering the large amount of space taken up by a plant and its hydrogen output , governments will debate over whether it is worthwhile to use so much land to produce enough fuel for the nation . |
| 286 | But hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are still in the testing and implementation phase . |
| 287 | Hydrogen is also needed in fertilizer production . |
| 288 | Due to current technology , hydrogen produced by nuclear reactors is not enough to completely replace gasoline for transport demands , the opponents argue . |
| 289 | The design for hydrogen vehicles is not similar to that of petroleum vehicles . |
| 290 | " words from Jeffery.D.Sachs , director of the Earh Institute at Columbia Universtiy . This implies that gasoline is replaced not only by hydrogen , but also electricity , biofuel , and solar energy . |
| 291 | This means that no radioactive waste is released to the public and also no hydrogen is produced as a byproduct . |
| 292 | Besides generating energy , the energy generated from nuclear reaction can also be used in crude oil refining or metal production ( Ogawa , & VonLensa , 2002. ) . |
| 293 | One is that the reactor and the gas turbine system are separated from the hydrogen production plant , which is aimed at isolating the hydrogen plant from the reactor system during the abnormal events of the hydrogen production plant . |
| 294 | At high temperature ( 700-900 ) , H2 is split from water and can be further utilized as fuel for transportation and factories . |
| 295 | Unlike the VHTR which uses rare gas Helium as a coolant , the SCWR simply uses water to cool down the system . |
| 296 | ( 2008,April 27 ) .Hydraulic hybrid cars-no batteries required . |

| 63 | Very High Temperature Reactor |
| 64 | First , they say that the generation IV actors are very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) , which react in both high temperature and pressure . |
| 65 | Since VHTR , also known as the 'New Generation Nuclear Plant ' , has more advantages over the SCWR , VHTR is definitely a better nuclear system to be further developed . |
| 66 | In this sense , the SCWR is a better nuclear reactor compared to the VHTR for our future . |

| 89 | Personally , in my opinion , Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) is by far the best nuclear reactor concept to be chosen for funding of research and development . |
| 90 | Therefore , VHTR could be a promising nuclear reactor for the " Nuclear power 's new dawn " . |

| 93 | The new generation reactors are planning to run at very high temperatures or high pressures ( Butler , D. ( 2004 , ) . |
| 94 | ( http : //www.cogeneration.net/very_high_temperature_Reactor.htm ) . |
| 95 | VHTR is likely to be the most advanced concept in terms of practical experience as Japan already operating a similar high temperature reactor at Oarai . |
| 96 | All these will make the VHTR more competitive in the fierce competition of today 's energy market ( Renkai , 2000 ) . |
| 97 | In conclusion , the VHTR provides an economically competitive nuclear heat source and hydrogen production capability ( Idaho National Laboratory Idaho Falls , 2006 ) . |
| 98 | Very-high Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) is one of the six generation = 4 \ * ROMAN IV nuclear reactor systems selected by the Generation = 4 \ * ROMAN IV International Forum for further development in 2002 ( Preparing Today for Tomorrow 's Energy Needs , para.3 ) . |
| 99 | VHTR seems to be the most feasible design in the IV generation reactor . |
| 100 | The VHTR is designed to be a highly efficient system and is able to supply process heat to industries that require high-temperature , energy-intensive and non-electric processes ( Idaho Laboratories , 2009 ) . |

| 104 | Hitherto , scientists have successfully proposed the Generation IV nuclear reactor concepts , namely , gas-cooled fast reactors , lead-cooled fast reactors , molten salt reactors , sodium-cooled fast reactors , supercritical-water cooled reactors and very-high-temperature reactors . |
| 105 | As we can see , the two major advantages efficiency and safety imply the VHTR should be a very promising and powerful nuclear reactor system . |

| 107 | I think that Very-high-temperature-reactors ( VHTR ) will become the most popular in the future , since there are lots of advantages . |
| 108 | But in terms of performance , VHTR is a more efficient concept compared to others in generation four nuclear reactor concepts . |
| 109 | In conclusion , the VHTR offers good prospects to be the next generation of reactors . |
| 110 | However , in terms of safety , costs and overall performance , the VHTR would be the best nuclear reactor to be implemented |
| 111 | VHTR is thus a better reactor . |
| 112 | And reactors with super-high operating temperature seems to be the ultimate answer . |

| 142 | The design of GFR development strategy is to take full advantage of the Very High Temperature Reactor development ( VHTR ) . |
| 143 | I believe that GFR is one of the most promising generation IV nuclear reactors , and its large scale application is just around the corner . |
| 144 | With the new generation IV reactor concepts , Lead-cooled fast reactor is the paramount choice for producing nuclear power as it surpasses the other reactors in terms of different aspects ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 145 | VHTR can provide some outstanding features which the rest can not , or VHTR is an extremely high efficiency reactor with a good security guarantee . |

| 147 | Assessing Gas-cooled Fast Reactors for Generation IV Services To meet the energy demands of the 21st century , a new generation of nuclear reactors termed as Generation IV , is being developed . |
| 148 | According to Prof Mirko Ascic 's scientific journal ( ASCIC , 2005 ) , the energy of neutrons in the reactor is the dominant factor that affects the process of converting heat to electricity . |
| 149 | There has been a debate between two Generation Four reactors , the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) and the Supercritical Water Reactor ( SCWR ) , as to which reactor has superior performance . |
| 150 | One of the latest prototypes of generation IV nuclear reactor is the Lead Cooled fast reactor ( LFR ) . |

| 0 | On top of that , a shrinking and less productive workforce could have an adverse impact on the country 's economic growth . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Neglecting the other areas of the country 's development will hinder its progress and lead to limited economic growth and thus a shrinking budget . |
| 2 | The cut down of spending in these essential areas might hinder the growth of a country . |
| 3 | If the government does not invest enough in these areas , the country will lose its competitiveness , productive capacity in the economy and decrease in public services which will greatly harm the economy . |
| 4 | Eventually , this will lead to a less thriving economy , which can pose a major problem to a country . |
| 5 | There is a worry that the diversion of spending could also result in a country 's slow growth and low productivity . |
| 6 | This shows that an aging population will result in lower productivity and affect our economies . |
| 7 | With little economic growth , a society may be faced with fewer options on how to take care of people who are least able to take care of themselves . |
| 8 | If consumption of goods reduces significantly , there will be low credit flow in the economy , which will result in sluggish economic growth . |
| 9 | The aging workforce will then decrease work productivity and lower the nations economic development . |
| 10 | Other than that , an aging population will hinder the economic growth due to its lower productivity . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Another reason is that limiting public spending may arouse complaints from the public , which in return , has an effect on the development of the country . |
| 12 | This in turn would lead to lower labour deployment for the country and hence lower productivity , having an adverse effect on the country 's development . |
| 13 | This is a pressing issue which may lead to an economic decline as the workforce is affected . |
| 14 | This could eventually slow down the productivity of the whole economy . |
| 15 | In the long term , the country will suffer from irreversible losses as progress is made by its people and remaining talents are insufficient to substantiate the growth . |
| 16 | If the country faced an economic downturn , its revenue would be reduced . |
| 17 | The high cost of the product may deter possible customers and in the end , the profit of the company will drop . |
| 18 | On the economic aspect , an aging population leads to shrinking workforce , low productivity and slow economic growth . |
| 19 | Furthermore , due to high taxes , the reduced incomes of citizens could have negative impacts on their purchase and in the same way , the domestic market and the economy in general might be faced with a lot of trouble . |
| 20 | However , with sufficient economic growth , this would not be the case as there would be more options and fewer persons in need of the help . |
| 21 | Finally , it negatively affects the society by decreasing productivity and economic growth . |
| 22 | An aging society means a smaller working force which would result in lesser tax payers This might cause in a decline in government fund . |
| 23 | The seriousness of the problems will not only affect oneself but also affect the whole economy as there will be lesser population contributing to the workforce and to the National Service . |
| 24 | However , over focusing on this situation may inhibit the growth of our economy as precious funds can be diverted to other uses , especially . |
| 25 | For this will eventually beset and hinder not only a country 's development but also slowdown the pace of the world 's economic growth as well . |
| 26 | These clashes will slow down the progress of administrative work , causing possible long term impacts to be felt by the economy . |
| 27 | These can incur huge government expenses which can slow down the economy . |
| 28 | In an aging society with lesser tax payers , government funds will eventually drop and this will provide a huge cut in possible public expenditures needed to sustain a country . |
| 29 | Society has fewer choices on how to care for those who are least able to care for themselves when there is only little economic growth . |
| 30 | " With little economic growth , society is limited in its ways to assist those who require assistance . |
| 31 | In that case , governments would have less financial flexibility due to the relatively smaller scale of economy with less tax revenue generated by the limited scale of workforce . |
| 32 | This may sound good and interesting but with the current economic status , where is less economic growth , tougher choices need to be made to cope with the demand of the society . |
| 33 | Having an aging population means that there will be lesser people in the workforce and this will have an impact on the country 's economy . |
| 34 | Due to this , the country 's development in other areas has to take a step back , thus resulting in the inability to attain its potential . |
| 35 | As a result , the social economy will be affected dramatically in a negative way , one of which is the lack of a labour force . |
| 36 | A failure in proper public spending would therefore cripple the country and its development . |
| 37 | However , the increase of public spending on the elderly may not be effective as it can be diverted to other sectors that need it . |
| 38 | Hence the burden of costs would hinder the growth of the country 's important developments , and one of which is the economy of the country . |
| 39 | The economy growth of the country will be affected when there are less people who contribute to the country . |
| 40 | To deal with these challenges , the government has limited options , and one of which is to limit the spending on this sector to reduce the burden on the society . |
| 41 | Furthermore , their declining productivity has also lessened their income . |
| 42 | On the contrary , excessive public spending can also hinder the development of a country too . |
| 43 | However , this hinders the distribution of resources for the country 's development . |
| 44 | This would lead to price inflation and could cause an economic slowdown as affordability would become a concern . |
| 45 | This would greatly affect a country 's development as there are not enough people to fuel the economy . |
| 46 | In the long run , this can lead to shrinkage in the Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) of the country or even affect the other sectors of development . |
| 47 | These people will suffer as the country works toward other areas of its development . |
| 48 | When there are limited resources , scarcity is unavoidable which leads to a situation where not everyone will benefit and there will be those who are in need who will be left out . |
| 49 | As resources consumption increases rapidly and they are limited , there are fewer resources for people to use . |
| 50 | This shrinking workforce may signal the advent of a less productive workforce and greater financial strain on the members of the workforce as they need to produce adequate amounts of output to support the burgeoning elderly population ( Schuiz et al. , 1991 ) . |
| 51 | If the public spending on the solutions are limited , thus effects of these solutions will not be able to meet our expectations . |
| 52 | Thus , if a limit was not imposed , the economy of a country will be adversely affected in the long run . |
| 53 | Subsequently , a labour shortage will have a negative impact on the economy as it slows the country 's economic growth . |
| 54 | With little knowledge and skills , the country would be poor and would not grow . |
| 55 | Decreased economic performance may be directly related to an ageing workforce as a result of reduced labour participation and productivity , and reduced job mobility . |
| 56 | It might then adversely affect the economy of the country as the citizens may not be willing to work for the country for fear of being abandoned by the nation once they are economically inactive . |
| 57 | Lower productivity of an older workforce can lead to a decline in economic growth . |
| 58 | In any case , a lopsided spending will only compromise progress for other sectors which in turn will lead to other social and economic problems . |
| 59 | If the government is to limit public spending on this sector and instead channel it to other sectors , this might deprive the needy elderly from obtaining assistance and might lead to adverse effects . |
| 60 | While some might argue that there is little that people in the low income groups can do to prepare for this and it might simply cause unnecessary stress for them ; it must be pointed out that it is even more important for this group of people to plan ahead for the future as they will very likely lack sufficient resources to deal with it when the problem surfaces . |
| 61 | If not , there could be a drop in the GDP and eventually the percentage of public spending on the aged could be reduced too . |
| 62 | It would no longer be able to have constant economic growths and that would be detrimental for the country . |
| 63 | Thus it will also create an impact in the financial losses and holding back economic growth throughout the world . |
| 64 | With an aging population , less people are able to work and the development of the economy is likely to decline . |
| 65 | Unemployment will cause the workforce to shrink and result in an economic slowdown . |
| 66 | As a result , there will be less and less engineering products being developed as a result people might not have opportunities to enjoy the conveniences and leisure that is brought about by the products . |
| 67 | It can slow down the productivity of the society . |
| 68 | Not only would this pressurize the workforce , it would also cause them to spend less as they have lesser discretionary income . |
| 69 | However , if this trend of spending continues in the future , it will be destructive to a country 's financial structure . |
| 70 | The lack of human resources brings great impact on our country 's economic growth . |
| 71 | In addition , an aging population causes a decrease in the workforce . |
| 72 | Hence , if the health status of the people is very low , investors may not want to invest in the country and this may affect the economic growth of the country . |
| 73 | This causes taxes , budgets , living standards and economic growth to be adversely affected . |
| 74 | Government will have less money to divert to other development areas . |
| 75 | The trepidation will be answered by the cutting on expenditure and discouragement of foreign talent residing here for retirement which decreases the return to the country 's financial system . |
| 76 | Hence , this has exerted more pressure on society , which could lead to problems such as low social security , economic depression and inadequate education . |
| 77 | High levels of taxation may also lead to a decrease in domestic and foreign investments . |
| 78 | Less money leads to higher risk of failure . |
| 79 | Limiting public spending will instead create unintended costs , such as unhappiness amongst people . |
| 80 | At the same time , it loses the opportunity to save costs and increase production efficiency . |
| 81 | It is a problem that every country is facing , and if it is not properly dealt with , it will hold back the country 's development and be an economic hindrance . |
| 82 | As a result , the dependence on governments may lead to unexpected problems such as overspending and a lack of budget to invest in other fields . |
| 83 | More people are less willing to provide labor work in manufacturing sectors with low career advancements . |
| 84 | It could jeopardize government spending on other areas of a country 's development in the long run . |
| 85 | However , economic benefits will be minimal if the state decides to be a welfare state and compromises the economic development of the country . |
| 86 | Low education in a country may result in increases in the number of the unemployed , which eventually hamper the economic growth because people who are jobless are very dependent as they do not earn money for living . |
| 87 | However , failure to efficiently plan public spending can have disastrous effects on the society and the nation at large especially in the current phase of global economic crisis . |
| 88 | This will cause the proportion left for developments in other areas to be reduced in the future as well . |
| 89 | As mobility decreases , daily major activities are greatly reduced too . |
| 90 | Therefore , it affects and slows down the rapid growth of the economy . |
| 91 | There will be lesser amount of skilful adults in the workforce and this may in turn slow down the economy . |
| 92 | High selling price of the product will often deter potential customers and hence result in a fall of profit . |
| 93 | Additionally , this also leads to lost income for designers as they might not earn their production cost back . |
| 94 | Hence , when the economic situation worsened , the government agencies were affected . |
| 95 | This dependency may hinder the activity of the people around them which may otherwise be productive . |
| 96 | In such case , companies will find them a huge financial burden slowing the growth of the company . |
| 97 | Additionally , the income differentiations , low level of commitment from individuals and lack of awareness from a certain number of populations can be the main obstacles to the achievability of the policy . |
| 98 | Other areas of development that will increase the economic growth of the country will then be compromised . |
| 99 | Their low-skilled and physical jobs limit their possibility to continue working after certain age . |
| 100 | This deficiency in raw materials and useable land as well as to a lesser extent , wealth and labour , limits the magnitude of the engineering solutions to be pursued . |
| 101 | Consequently , they would be struggling for survival with the limited welfare policies available to them . |
| 102 | It is true that by doing so , a country 's development and productivity will suffer . |
| 103 | In addition , the economic situation and current circumstances , as well as financial problems also create barriers for innovation to take place . |
| 104 | If the usage of public funds is not well balanced , it will not only affect the country 's development , but also put the country 's future into jeopardy . |
| 105 | This would negatively affect the society and the country 's economy on a whole . |
| 106 | With an aging workforce , productivity of the workers will be reduced . |
| 107 | Shortage of labour would impede the growth of the country . |
| 108 | If taxes are raised substantially , it would worsen the severe financial stress for the working population and adversely impact the consumer market . |
| 109 | This would result in the lack of motivation to work . |
| 110 | Once the process is lacking in funds , there is little hope for the process to continue . |
| 111 | However , the limited public spending also have some side effects on the country , such as the overall wealth distribution of the country will be unequal . |
| 112 | However , the limitless spending on them will hurt the country 's development in areas which are of importance such as education , employment and communication infrastructures . |
| 113 | Besides , the lack of financial support or sudden stop in the financial support may even lead to the incompletion of a project . |
| 114 | Lastly , shrinking responsibility to take care of aged citizens will lead to drastic loss of talents in the country . |
| 115 | With the economic downturn , job opportunities have decreased |
| 116 | This will lead to emigration and brain drain from the country , which will in turn lead it to lose/losing its competitive edge , and thus it will be less attractive to investors . |
| 117 | It interferes with the sum of money allocated to develop the country in other ways . |
| 118 | These less competitive elderly people would be cut off from any benefits of economic growth . |
| 119 | These alarming statistics would bring about economic and societal problems to many developed countries . |
| 120 | If the project would be carried out over a few years , the funds would be running low very fast . |
| 121 | Thus limiting the funds in this sector would mean restrictions placed around how much can be done to help these people . |
| 122 | To emphasize this point , studies have shown that economic hardship requires households to make difficult decisions between care and basic living expenses , which at times compromises necessary treatments and health care ( economic hardship requires households to make difficult decisions between care and basic living expenses , which at times compromises necessary treatments and health care ) . |
| 123 | In addition , this would lead to a market downturn . |
| 124 | These illnesses will affect their daily lives in some ways such as cause inconvenience in social life and inhibit their activities . |
| 125 | It is no doubt that future prosperity is likely to be negatively affected because of the lack of investment in education , nutrition and other aspects for young generations . |
| 126 | This will result in a loss of revenue and it will slow down the rate of return of investment for the government . |
| 127 | Firstly , as a country usually allocates its budget to various areas , any increase in spending on a particular area will mean reduced spending on other areas . |
| 128 | Therefore , the fiscal outcome may not turn out to be ideal because other expenses such as education and national defence will end up being squeezed . |
| 129 | This is because it might result in detrimental social problems in the long run as other more beneficial developments might inevitably be neglected in the process . |
| 130 | As a result some government campaigns might have to be delayed or even cancelled due to shortage of funds . |
| 131 | In addition , it could also be dreadful for those who are not well equipped with education or skills to work and who really needs the country 's help . |
| 132 | A well-developed country may indirectly even lose competency with the other countries . Especially in , agriculture where small middle enterprises depend on the government funding . |
| 133 | However , there are some concerns about it , such as security , costs and performance , which have limited the popularization of this promising substitute . |
| 134 | It may undermine investors ' incentive to invest . |
| 135 | This action will ultimately affect the country 's economy . |
| 136 | Opponents of this position argue that there would be an increase in the wage base with a lower retirement age , because people will save less as they need less wealth and lower savings . |
| 137 | Given the current shaky economy , another big upset would have an adverse effect on our lives . |
| 138 | They may not be able to pay taxes if they have lost their jobs and thus , the government should consider spending its funds wisely . |
| 139 | This result in a reduction of the government budget for the country 's development in both economic and social terms . |
| 140 | With a lower GDP , Sweden generates less revenue to divert to other areas of a country 's development . |
| 141 | Investors may well eventually be deterred from investing in the country . |
| 142 | Denying support for them on the other hand , will further result in a nation with social , political and economic disparities . |
| 143 | Since the taxes is the main resource of governments ' revenue , and the tax base can hardly be increased in the short run , overspending a/ the limited budget on retirement welfare for the time being means less investing in improving infrastructure , and developing advanced technology , which could greatly accelerate economic development in the long run . |
| 144 | This has raised concerns about the issue of our ageing population and how we could allocate our limited resources efficiently . |
| 145 | When more elderly people are employed , there will be less workplace for younger , more effective workers ; this is really a huge waste of human resources . |
| 146 | This will , if not already , cause problems as there is very limited space for us . |
| 147 | This is made worse with the shrinking workforce that we are now experiencing . |
| 148 | The cooling system will have a slower response time . |
| 149 | As a result , they end up with poor health and reduced productivity in their work . |
| 150 | Then , they might not focus on solving other problems in other areas , which may cause many troubles for the entire development of the country . |
| 151 | Furthermore , as people get older , their vision will become poorer and responsiveness might be slower than before . |
| 152 | However , these plans tend to get hit by delays after delays because of various reasons . |
| 153 | To sum up , without a doubt diverting public spending from supporting the aged population to the other areas of development in the country may at first seem to be the best option , but eventually , it could result in more harm than good , either by upsetting the balance of wealth in the country , imparting wrong moral values or conveying the wrong message to its citizens . |
| 154 | When one ages , he may be less optimistic and feel disconnected from the society . |
| 155 | As a result , the efficiency of work was lowered . |
| 156 | Many economies have dipped into recession , job losses are prevalent and many countries are experiencing social instability . |
| 157 | Yet that token of gratitude should not be too much till it may drag down the development of the country . |
| 158 | Conversely , if the country were not knowledge- based , it could hardly make any economic progress , due to the lack of understanding of technology in development . Thus , this may lead to shortages in the government 's annual budget for the aged . |
| 159 | A population with poor educational background will find it hard to compete with other foreign talents with quality education background , thus losing out when it comes to employment and resulting in a huge percentage of the population being unemployed . |
| 160 | In addition , once economic growth is stable , there will be prosperity and employment rate will decrease . |
| 161 | This problem leads to the loss of precious time that could be put to good use and it also affects the progression of work and major projects . |
| 162 | It can not solve the problem effectively , and may also lead to the economy being subjected to increasing pressure . |
| 163 | These groups of people have to struggle for their living resources and cost of living as they are vulnerable in the society . |
| 164 | The delay or shortage in either of them will lead to a lapse or even stoppage of the designing process . |
| 165 | Due to the need of raising taxes to provide for the elderly , local consumptions of goods may reduce significantly and foreign investors will consider relocating their investments . |
| 166 | The shrinking of the labour force and the lack of vitality for the workforce will happen in the near future . |
| 167 | I agree that under high temperature and pressure , materials generally tend to deteriorate faster and would have a lower lifespan . |
| 168 | By limiting it , the amount may not be able to cater to all the needs in the future as the limit is set on the basis of a population at a particular time . |
| 169 | If the money spent is not planned properly , there may be disastrous consequences . |
| 170 | This might reduce potential foreign investments . |
| 171 | Sadly , this creates a downturn in many developed countries . |
| 172 | In other words , the income that they earned would be constantly reduced . |
| 173 | Besides , increased unemployment rates contribute to a lot of social problems which may threaten the social security of the country . |
| 174 | First , economic decline wwill occur as the size of the working force shrinks . |
| 175 | These result in a decline of the proportion of economically productive people . |
| 176 | Instead , the society will face a wider range of issues related to education , housing and even transportation which creates a negative pressure on the economy of the nation . |
| 177 | Also , when foreign investors relocate their investments , jobs will also be relocated to other geographic places , this will result in fewer jobs for the population . |
| 178 | The Straits Time ( 2009 ) mentioned that the huge increases in public spending could slow down countries ' economic growth . |
| 179 | With all these factors , the time taken to develop a new technology will be shortened . |
| 180 | Hence , their availability to build up is limited . |
| 181 | However , this would not sustain the interest in foreigners if the country lacks an appealing living condition . |
| 182 | As a result , there will be very little funds left for leisure and other activities . |
| 183 | Hence , causing the market to suffer . |
| 184 | Furthermore , new challenges and problems will arise in the future ; hence because of these two reasons , I feel that the government should not be too focused on the ageing population issue as there might be other more urgent issues that require their immediate attention in the future . |
| 185 | The delay of which , could lead to more human fatalities . |
| 186 | Secondly , there was a lack of manpower and the construction process was slowed down as a result . |
| 187 | However , spending money on them could have disadvantaged other groups of needy people . |
| 188 | Thus , foreign investments will decline drastically even with an advanced Research & Development sector or Banking & Finance sector because the social instability of Singapore loses foreign investors ' confidence , and Singapore will incur severe loss in terms of economic competitiveness . |
| 189 | They not only struggle to balance the social needs and interests of different demographic groups but also to sustain economic growth . |
| 190 | This whole bunch of weak supports from the Government policy and law has lead to serious hampers in the local creativity of engineering design . |
| 191 | Therefore , with inadequate input into these areas , the development of the latter will be neglected . |
| 192 | Secondly , skeptics argue that under high temperature and pressure , materials tend to deteriorate faster and become weak . |
| 193 | An aging population is often associated with a decline in the workforce and the productivity of the country . |
| 194 | As the benefit of the approach can only be seen in the long run , reducing and limiting the public funding amount immediately would result in shortage of funds to deal with current demand . |
| 195 | That 's why the whole process of innovations tends to stop after problems or needs arise . |
| 196 | could be defined as scarcity , which means resources are limited in quantity and iimplies that not all of society 's goals can be pursued at the same time . |
| 197 | The society may face a wide range of social issues on education , housing and many more which may not be solved by setting limits on healthcare expenditure on the government 's part as this may instead create even more problems . |
| 198 | One of the major reasons for the temporary structure to collapse is the use of a cheaper material which made the structure unable to withstand the capacity to cater for the loads . |
| 199 | Thus , the acceleration of enhancement of engineering will be reduced at a large scale . |
| 200 | Absence of these talents and labour would keep back potential investments by foreign companies ( Peh , 2006 ) and hence have adverse effects on the economy . |
| 201 | These may result in crucial time loss . |
| 202 | This can be attributed to the inflexibility of the system causing rejection of innovations that are less relevant to the corporate or country 's interest . |
| 203 | High risk means less money pumped in . |
| 204 | The world will experience slow growth , shrinking labour and rising public spending . |
| 205 | Furthermore , as it is mineral resource , the supply of gas is becoming less and less which directly leads to the rise of the price . |
| 206 | Moreover , a dwindling population signifies that there are lesser people to defend the country . |
| 207 | The scarce land space further adds to the problem . |
| 208 | A shrinking workforce is another problem arising from an aging population . |
| 209 | This indicates that the public support has declined in recent years . |
| 210 | This in turn would create unnecessary stress and might affect the way they lead their lives . |
| 211 | Yet the use of it has been restricted by economic factors , military demands as well as government regulations . |
| 212 | It reduces economic growth as the size of the workforce shrinks as more elderly people leave the workforce and less people are recruited into the workforce . |
| 213 | It can cause a drop in the labour force and population . |
| 214 | In conclusion , the two factors of lack of resources and behaviors of the customers cause great problems to the engineering design process in my country . |
| 215 | This is certainly a very large demographic number for the governing states to deny support because public spending , on the aged , if limited , will incur more disadvantages than advantages , not only to the aged who will be directly affected , but also to the overall society as a whole due to the fact that members in society interact with one another . |
| 216 | Those who are more affluent might migrate , which could cause a loss of investors and talents . This may affect the country 's development . |
| 217 | However , the over exertion of her efforts may simply cause innovations in the other areas to be neglected . |
| 218 | This will cause distractions and time wastage during the course of production . |
| 219 | Traits such as one 's mobility , as well as visibility will be significantly reduced as compared to their younger days . |
| 220 | It is because as they stop to work , people who pay taxes will decrease . |
| 221 | However , many of these people fail to consider the number of lives that are placed in jeopardy should the design process fail . |
| 222 | This not only hinders one 's potential , but also affects the way the individual walks his or her remaining path of life . |
| 223 | This is because neglecting them will create a 'paralysed ' society - a society of social problems with discrimination and marginalisation of certain groups of people that impair the progression of the groups ( TheFreeDictionary , 2009 for the definition of 'paralysed ' ) . |
| 224 | And the company loses its opportunities to innovate . |
| 225 | This demographic change has lead to several serious consequences which not only challenge the whole society but also the government and policy makers . |
| 226 | Or else , the country development would be stagnant and the nation would not have to live in a comfortable life . |
| 227 | Land limitation greatly reduces the range of technological advances local engineers can create in our country . |
| 228 | However , in my country there are still some problems that hamper creativity and design , especially the lack of resources and the behavior of customers . |
| 229 | Failure to make decisions in government budget will affect whole countries ' systems including their economy... , education , or environment , etc . |
| 230 | Hence , this will greatly hinder the development of these countries and deter national progression ( Dooling,2009 ) . |
| 231 | As a result , valuable time was lost and the accident happened . |
| 232 | As a result , the rest of the process can be ruined because of the first steps ; for example , if the problem statement is not broad enough , the statement will preclude new thoughts on the issue . |
| 233 | These problems include insufficient housing for people , higher unemployment rates and insufficient budget for the future aged population . |
| 234 | In summary , the flow of the design process can be hampered by the lack of funds and knowledge . |
| 235 | The economic downturn also prevents consumers from buying things that they think are not essential . |
| 236 | Hence students gradually lose the ability to conceive fresh ideas . |
| 237 | If the young are not well educated , there may be social implications such as increasing crime rates and unemployment . |
| 238 | Our resources are fast disappearing and we have to take some radical steps now . |
| 239 | Immediate action is necessary as the Earth is getting weaker and weaker . |
| 240 | This allows the elderly to have less physical capabilities in their work . |
| 241 | This will mean that the countries will be diverting plenty of resources on the supply of health care and neglecting the potential of the other areas which may help to generate wealth for the country . |
| 242 | If not , our future pillars or hope will eventually be compromised . |
| 243 | Education alone is not enough because even if the society is better-educated there may not be adequate jobs available and the unemployment problem still exists . |
| 244 | If this product does not provide a satisfactory amount of benefits to the parent organization , it may be dismissed despite its potential usefulness . |
| 245 | When the improvements in a new design are unable to compensate for limitations , designers should abandon the design . |
| 246 | The financial problem faced by these unemployed is also worsened by the high cost of living in developed countries . |
| 247 | These include lack of technology as well as funding from the appropriate ministries or bodies . |
| 248 | Thus , the money which goes into operation is largely reduced . |
| 249 | Or else , they may have to end up suffering without assistance or even notice of the others . |
| 250 | So if their incomes are limited , it must arouse complaints and evoke the indignation . |
| 251 | The number of people in need of assistance will thus decrease . |
| 252 | The diverse obstacles associated with an aging population creates lots of pressure , ranging not only from medical services but also to the education system too . |
| 253 | In conclusion , with the development of technology , the aging process will become slower . |
| 254 | Some governments even do it " too " well that a large amount of money , which should be spent on other social issues , is wasted . |
| 255 | In addition , the increasing demand on the country 's healthcare system will cause the country to divert many resources for the healthcare industry thus neglecting the other potential areas . |
| 256 | In developing countries , there will not be sufficient skilled labour to support the development since most of the people are not equipped with such skills ( Travis et al. , 2009 ) . |
| 257 | This significantly decreases the amount of entertainment an elderly person can enjoy . |
| 258 | The government can not choose to develop everything because of the scarcity of resources , such as land , funds and workers . |
| 259 | For another example , during this recent economic downturn , most of the major manufacturing companies are slowing down in manufacturing existing products and releasing new products . |
| 260 | This causes a decrease in demand for it . |
| 261 | Finally , fewer and fewer companies will be willing to go for the innovation process . |
| 262 | Due to the advancing technology , the lifecycle for a new product has been sharply shortened . |
| 263 | This would then lead to an overall fall in the revenue of a country which will translate into a drop in the public spending on the aged ( Weil : 1997 ) . |
| 264 | For some countries with little economic growth , the society faces few choices on how to care for those who are least able to care for themselves . |
| 265 | Although some people might think that the government forces them to contribute part of their income to CPF , they fail to realize that this can be good as it prevents them from squandering it on other less important merchandise . |
| 266 | Eventually , they will become weaker , more forgetful , slower in reaction and less agile . |
| 267 | Thus the over-eagerness and the time pressure exerted on them often lead to short-cuts and worsened the failure further ( Wilpert.B , 2007 ) . |
| 268 | Even with the support from the management , the amount of funding allocated is limited by its assigned budget . |
| 269 | So a small inducement can cause a huge disaster . |
| 270 | Citizens would consider migration and foreign talents would be less attracted to migrate into the country . |
| 271 | With this loss of precious time , we often have to make use of extra time to make up for the time lost in traffic congestion . |
| 272 | Secondly , the depletion of natural resources is at a much faster rate due fore mentioned reason . |
| 273 | Thus , the appeal of using the videophone is becoming lower and lower . |
| 274 | It would be investments without returns . |
| 275 | After all , people who fail to plan , plan to fail . |
| 276 | Then the innovators have to stop all work for the development . |
| 277 | If no limits are set , other citizens can abuse the system by using it indiscriminately , denying the rights of healthcare to truly needy patients . |
| 278 | With high personal and corporate tax , citizens may end up migrating to other countries causing a brain drain . |

| 0 | However , people may argue that surveillance technology is introduced to help ensure security , and it indeed works very well in preventing crimes from occurring and in providing information for investigation . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Furthermore , surveillance technology helps to combat threats . |
| 2 | On the other hand , supporters of surveillance technology state that surveillance technology plays an important role in crime detection and prevention thus maintaining the country 's security and prevents terrorist attacks . |
| 3 | Due to this , many surveillance technologies have been created in order to make the tracking job efficient . |
| 4 | The practice of surveillance technology is necessary for the benefit of the majority as it has been adopted to improve our quality of life . |
| 5 | Reports and articles have shown that the use of surveillance technology to track people can be beneficial to us , particularly in the healthcare and crime prevention sectors and in the enhancement of security . |
| 6 | Firstly , surveillance technology can be used for security and as a deterrent to prevent crimes . |
| 7 | Furthermore , surveillance technologies can also be used to improve the social security . |
| 8 | Nevertheless , using surveillance technology to track people has brought about many benefits and there are regulations to ensure that these technologies would not be abused . |
| 9 | However , when viewed from a broader perspective , surveillance technology would have been the platform to stop any terrorist attacks or crimes from happening . |
| 10 | Furthermore , surveillance technology can assist in monitoring potential threats . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Besides that , surveillance technology also can contribute in crime prevention and detection . |
| 12 | Hence , surveillance technology should be used to track people to allow better security and safety . |
| 13 | So , in my opinion , the surveillance technology should be used to track people as it could benefit us in many aspects . |
| 14 | Thus , tracking individuals using surveillance technology would result in a safer environment to live in . |
| 15 | With surveillance technology , such incidents can be prevented . |
| 16 | Of course , surveillance technology does have its benefits to the society in terms of safety and security , but does it outweigh the undesirable problems that it brings ? |
| 17 | Moreover , surveillance technology is vital in ensuring the safety of the public . |
| 18 | Hence , public safety can be ensured by the utilization of surveillance technology . |
| 19 | The most important aspect of surveillance technology is that of crime fighting , which in turn results in crime prevention . |
| 20 | On the other hand , surveillance tends to be more and more important in helping the government and law enforcement to maintain social control . |
| 21 | In conclusion , the use of surveillance technology would be constructive in many aspects of our daily life as the benefits far outweigh the societal concerns . |
| 22 | Thus , to ensure our continued freedom , surveillance technology must be commonly used . |
| 23 | Hence , surveillance technology can assist in cracking criminal cases . |
| 24 | These surveillance technologies bring great advantages in authorization of law enforcement authorities by monitoring and securing prosecution evidence on criminal and terrorist activities . |
| 25 | Supporters suggest that surveillance technology provides a sense of security and helps to detect potential terrorist acts early by criminal profiling . |
| 26 | Firstly , one undeniable advantage of surveillance technology is it might help us to protect people and their belongings . |
| 27 | Surveillance technology helps to ensure security in the society . |
| 28 | All in all , surveillance technology can help to improve the welfare of society by offering a tool for crime prevention , improving the healthcare system and also identifying of a person . |
| 29 | Thus , surveillance technologies in tracking people might be a good alternative in preventing criminal act from happening . |
| 30 | Thus , surveillance technology should be used to track people as it is not only a way to deter crimes , but also to ensure justice . |
| 31 | However , using surveillance technology to track people plays a vital role in addressing criminal issues and can benefit the healthcare sector . |
| 32 | There are benefits that surveillance technologies could bring us . |
| 33 | However , since the benefits reaped from surveillance technology outweigh the inconvenience it results in , surveillance technology should indeed be used to track people . |
| 34 | In addition , the use of surveillance technology such as surveillance cameras to track people is believed to aid in the reduction of crime rate in the country , which will be beneficial to the society . |
| 35 | Surveillance technology should be used to track people to ensure national security by preventing crime . |
| 36 | On the other hand , surveillance technology can also protect the well-being of people . |
| 37 | Surveillance technology helps prevent crime . |
| 38 | This is a classic example of how surveillance technology can be used to fight crime . |
| 39 | The use of surveillance technology is beneficial to people , particularly in terms of enhancing security and improving personnel safety . |
| 40 | Such technology provides higher security as it facilitates the monitoring and tracking of people and their actions . |
| 41 | Thus , surveillance technology should be used to track people as we have to use the best technology available to our benefit . |
| 42 | Therefore , surveillance technology should be used since it puts criminals and terrorists away and protects the society . |
| 43 | The use of surveillance technology to track people has become possible due to the advancement in technology . |
| 44 | The rapid development of technology has made it possible for a person to track other people by using surveillance technology . |
| 45 | By using video surveillance technology specifically at appropriate places , it could help the government protect the public more efficiently such as preventing the crimes before it happened ( Gray , 2009 , p.1 ) . |
| 46 | Thus , surveillance technology should be used in tracking people for security purposes . |
| 47 | People need to collect intelligence about a situation before they can act against it ; and this has led to the increasing employment of surveillance technology . |
| 48 | Though some may argue that surveillance technology is important for national security , it can also cause a threat to national security . |
| 49 | In addition , this surveillance technology protects a country 's safety and security from terrorist attacks . |
| 50 | However , the benefits of using surveillance technology outweigh the limitations as they could be improved with advancement in technology in the future . |
| 51 | Nowadays criminals and terrorists are equipped with high-tech equipment , so we have to take some appropriate actions to protect ourselves against them ; surveillance is one such action . |
| 52 | With the maturity of surveillance technology , a myriad of surveillance technologies is now widely utilized for administration , security purpose and public welfare . |
| 53 | First of all , surveillance technology should be used as it helps in eradicate crime and to identify the faces of a terrorist from miles away . |
| 54 | Although surveillance can be utilized widely in the aspects of health and medical , protection against terrorist attack and security purposes , abuse usage of such technology will bring us negative impacts . |
| 55 | In addition , these surveillance technologies are also very effective during rescue operations or investigations . |
| 56 | Sometimes criminals will be deterred if they are aware of hidden surveillance . |
| 57 | Advancement and breakthrough in technology has now made tracking individuals using surveillance technology a reality today . |
| 58 | These great functions of surveillance technology can be implemented and give positive impacts in many aspects including economy , research , security , military , and civil society . |
| 59 | However , since surveillance technology can help to identify problems , a solution or preventive measure can be formulated to prevent these problems from occurring , and this in turn lead to the protection of people 's health and the country 's socio-economic stability . |
| 60 | As the world advances so does technology . Surveillance nowadays covers a wide spectrum of life from the wellbeing of a child left alone in the room to national security to prevent events such as terrorism and political instability . |
| 61 | Hence , surveillance technology should not be banned as it is crucial in the modern society where there are threats around us and the only way to prevent such threats is through the use of such brilliant technology . |
| 62 | With the help of surveillance technology , crime rate can be reduced and prevented . |
| 63 | This essay shall elaborate on how surveillance technology will ensure one 's safety and also on its contribution to the overall improvements in healthcare services for the population by monitoring them . |
| 64 | Surveillance technology also aids social control . |
| 65 | However , citizens should understand that surveillance technology was developed as a tool to help society ; but it is the exploitation of people with criminal intent , or more often , the use of surveillance technology without careful consideration that makes surveillance technology harmful ( Sim , 2006 ) . |
| 66 | Another problem caused by surveillance technology is the security issue . |
| 67 | In conclusion , although each uptick in protection will typically come at the cost of more intrusion into the privacy of ordinary people , the development of surveillance technology has come up with the best possible inventions to assure that this trade-off will be worth it . |
| 68 | In addition , surveillance technology that appears beneficial in protecting our safety actually has limitations in crime detection and prevention . |
| 69 | We can not deny that surveillance technology is effective and convenient , but if data ownership is not controlled , surveillance technology may become a threat to our safety . |
| 70 | This is because this intelligent technology aids in crime prevention , social control and threat monitoring . |
| 71 | However , human tracking technology is essential in preventing terrorism and reducing crime rate , subsequently ensuring the safety of lawful citizens . |
| 72 | There are many factors that support the use of surveillance technology to track individuals . |
| 73 | Therefore , surveillance technology should be used to track people such as terrorists to ensure better security . |
| 74 | However , supporters believe that surveillance systems are indispensible in identifying and capturing terrorists and criminals , which is for public welfare .Mass surveillance is also effective for administrative purposes . |
| 75 | The usage of the surveillance technology gives people a false sense of security because they feel that with technology looking after them , they are sure to be safe . |
| 76 | With rapid technological advancement , myriad forms of surveillance technology have surfaced and people are using it both intensively and extensively . |
| 77 | Over the years , advances in science and technology has empowered surveillance technology by introducing many forms and magnifying the scope of surveillance . |
| 78 | With the advance of technology , surveillance technology has become prevalent in the society . |
| 79 | Ever since this technology has become immensely sophisticated , real benefits have been achieved in the development of surveillance technology systems . |
| 80 | Thus , if we can utilize this kind of surveillance technology more appropriately and keep more strict regulation on its application , it will surely be supported worldwide . |
| 81 | The benefits of surveillance technology outweigh the problems . |
| 82 | In this case , if surveillance technology is not implemented so as to protect individual 's privacy , millions of innocent lives may be in danger . |
| 83 | There may be arguments that surveillance technology is beneficial to humans in this modern era . |
| 84 | There are two main benefits that the use of surveillance technology has brought . |
| 85 | Surveillance technology should be used to track people |
| 86 | With the advances in technology , the use of surveillance technology is inevitable . |
| 87 | In conclusion , the advantages of using surveillance technology far outweigh its disadvantages . |
| 88 | Advances in technology have made surveillance technology very common nowadays . |
| 89 | One of the advancements in technology would be surveillance technology . |
| 90 | The concerns for safety and security have increased the extent of use of the surveillance systems . |
| 91 | Nevertheless , the advantages of surveillance technology still outweigh its side effects . |
| 92 | As a result , we can bring down the criminal rate by using surveillance technology . |
| 93 | Using surveillance technology to track people has benefitted people in three areas , socially , in the medical field and in the military sector . |
| 94 | In conclusion , the benefits that surveillance technology has brought to the society is far more advantageous than its unclear disadvantages . |
| 95 | Advances in technology have made mass surveillance possible , even to track humans . |
| 96 | Although these surveillance technologies may provide many potential benefits such as law enforcement , the issue raises a great deal of controversies as well . |
| 97 | We have developed into a surveillance society due to great advancement in technology . |
| 98 | With surveillance technology , terrorists could be more easily identified . Surveillance technology also prevents people from committing crime as they know they are being watched ( Easton , 2006 ) . |
| 99 | Moreover , police can also use surveillance technology to track potential criminals , for instance , to supervise a person who was imprisoned in the past for a short time to ensure that he will not commit a crime again . |
| 100 | While surveillance technology has contributed a lot to the society , it has also caused troubles such as privacy and security issues ( Anonymous 2007 ) . |
| 101 | In conclusion , tracking devices should be allowed in tracking people , as it is able to change human lives for the better , and it may even prevent or reduce crime rates . |
| 102 | In conclusion , I think the surveillance technology should be used as its benefits outweigh its harm . |
| 103 | There are two major advantages of using surveillance technology to track people . |
| 104 | All in all , it can not be denied that surveillance technology is important in securing a safe environment . |
| 105 | Surveillance technologies have become increasing popular in recent years . |
| 106 | Surveillance technology has brought us many applications in many areas of our life . |
| 107 | Although the use of surveillance technology may lead to undesirable implications , they are highly unlikely to happen . |
| 108 | Secondly , surveillance technology helps in enhancing and ensuring public security ( Gray , 2009 , para.1 ) . |
| 109 | As shown , surveillance technology and it uses ' benefits can outweigh the cons that it can bring . |
| 110 | Some suggest application of surveillance technology is advantageous in the safeguard of credentials , protection of national security and enhancement of business and commerce sectors . |
| 111 | As technology progresses , one may expect more surveillance devices to be developed in the near future . |
| 112 | Surveillance technology has advanced rapidly , and it has dominated our lives . |
| 113 | Surveillance technology plays an integral part of providing health care to patients . |
| 114 | Due to the immense usage of surveillance technology , the society has become relatively transparent . |
| 115 | This is because surveillance technology such as closed-circuit television ( CCTV ) allows others to watch and track our daily activities . |
| 116 | If surveillance technology is banned , safety of the society and the country 's security will be under a big threat . |
| 117 | Surveillance technology can be used to track the movement of the terrorists and arrest them before they cause greater damage to the society . |
| 118 | Rapidly rising availability of surveillance technology have made it possible to yield information about the locations of people . |
| 119 | This is because surveillance technology will help in crime prevention , improve medical healthcare and also identify a person via biometrics . |
| 120 | This is a very good evidence to show that the surveillance technology is becoming more and more widespread in current society , especially in healthcare |
| 121 | The presence of security cameras in public places helps to reduce crime rates as criminals fear that their actions will be recorded . |
| 122 | Surveillance technology can be a form of deterrence for potential criminals , or as a form of evidence when a crime is committed . |
| 123 | Since the explosion of technology during the last few decades , there has been a new method to track people , which is surveillance technology . |
| 124 | In other words , when combined with the " intelligent video security system using image process " technology which can " detect unexpected movement or unusual behavior that can pose a threat to people , property and infrastructure " , RFID will be able to prevent many potential risks from criminals or dire threat like terrorism ( Focus Group Meeting on Technology Convergence , 2008 ) . |
| 125 | Many countries use surveillance technology to prevent terrorism attacks but terrorists also use surveillance technology to plan their attacks . |
| 126 | Since we have a better technology to ensure the accuracy , I see no reason to ban such surveillance technology . |
| 127 | Moreover , surveillance technology helps protect against bank frauds and illegal activities , such as hacking into personal Internet banking accounts . |
| 128 | For instance , the existence of surveillance technology in the virtual world helps to curb crimes against copyrights , piracy and bank frauds . |
| 129 | In conclusion , surveillance technology has brought great benefits to our life and is accounting more and more in the hospital and government related areas . |
| 130 | In fact , it might bring additional work to the security force as they now have to take care of minor issue captured by the surveillance technology ( Monahan , 2006 ) , and this may cause them to overlook the real threat to our security . |
| 131 | ( { http : //www.spygearco.com/blog/index.php/how-to-prevent-crime-using-surveillance/ } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.spygearco.com/blog/index.php/how-to-prevent-crime-using-surveillance/ ] ) Information provided by surveillance is considered as a strong source of evidence in detection of crime . |
| 132 | Despite the proper usage of surveillance technology , there is a widespread abuse of the technology by some criminal organizations . |
| 133 | As a result , I think that the surveillance technology should be used . |
| 134 | However , surveillance technology also has its benefits such as security , safety and work efficiency . |
| 135 | Thus , surveillance technology should be deployed to monitor people , especially the terrorists . |
| 136 | Surveillance technology is increasingly important in the fast-paced and ever-changing world . |
| 137 | Surveillance technology also plays an important role in the healthcare industry . |
| 138 | Modern surveillance technology has constructed a means for us to gather information readily . |
| 139 | Technological advancement has led to the invention of several surveillance technologies . |
| 140 | Although the use of surveillance technology will raise ethical concerns , to obtain important information that might save thousands of lives , there is no choice but to do it . |
| 141 | As far as the government is concerned , with the use of surveillance devices , security is greatly enhanced and discipline is observed . |
| 142 | In today 's world , surveillance technology has been deployed for various purposes . |
| 143 | Surveillance technology could also be used to ensure the safety of our family members . |
| 144 | From just the above example , we can see that the advantages of using surveillance technology overweigh its disadvantages . |
| 145 | Besides that , surveillance technology also enables the tracking of criminals who are on the run , and even kidnappers . |
| 146 | By using this technology , all of the activities that are happening can be viewed through the camera so it is important to organize the security of the place ( Burnell,2007 ) . |
| 147 | Another area in which surveillance technology has been widely used is in medical sector . |
| 148 | However , some may argue that the benefits of surveillance technology actually compensate for the concerns about privacy . |
| 149 | Proliferation of surveillance devices threatens privacy . |
| 150 | While there are opponents raising the issue of invasion of privacy towards an individual and also the trustworthiness of the law enforcement personnel to act appropriately , justification can be done by the effectiveness of surveillance technology in bringing justice ( Michael & Rose , 2007 ) . |
| 151 | In addition , this technology also complements the work of security personnel and thus provides added protection against furtive terrorist attacks . |
| 152 | Surveillance technology can also be used in the medical fields . |
| 153 | There is no denying that surveillance technologies that are extremely useful with wide ranges of uses from monitoring traffic to the detection and prevention of crime ( Jeffrey A , 2009 ) . |
| 154 | During recent years there has been an increase in the use of surveillance technology . |
| 155 | Socially , surveillance technology is used to track people . |
| 156 | Undeniably , surveillance technologies do overlap with human rights , but more often than not , the use of these technologies brings about more benefits than negative consequences . |
| 157 | These devices play a part in deterring potential criminals from carrying out their nefarious activities knowing that their images are caught on tape and may be used for arrest and prosecution . |
| 158 | However , surveillance equipment has become common and developed into various types . |
| 159 | Both support the fact that surveillance technology create risks to privacy that far outweigh the technology 's heralded benefits . |
| 160 | However , I think that the benefits of such surveillance technologies outweigh the cost cost of intruding human 's privacy . |
| 161 | Although it appears to breach the privacy of communities , surveillance technology has in fact enabled to track the public 's health , ensured public safety and monitored employees in companies . |
| 162 | This then brings about the debates on whether surveillance technology should be banned This is because surveillance could provide security , and it could also invade our privacy and disturb the society . |
| 163 | However , as technology advances to prevent such intrusions , hackers and stalkers can advance to break into such protections too . |
| 164 | Surveillance technology is now widely used in several areas . |
| 165 | Surveillance technology helps us much in following dangerous criminals such as gangsters or a mafia chief . |
| 166 | Over the years , there has been an increase in the use of surveillance technology . |
| 167 | Moreover , an individual is less likely to commit a crime if he knows that he is being watched . |
| 168 | However in this , although the tracking device ia an invasion to a person 's privacy , it serves a good cause to ensure the safety of the general population . |
| 169 | The impact of surveillance technology towards human lives is huge and can be frightening at times . |
| 170 | Together these developments herald a high-tech surveillance society that is beyond previous generations ' imagination-- one in which virtually every advance brings benefits as well as intrusions . |
| 171 | The presence of surveillance cameras can prevent theft in the company because employees are less likely to steal company products as they fully aware that they are being watched by unblinking cameras which can provide evidence . |
| 172 | On the other hand , surveillance technology also influences the psychological condition of individuals . |
| 173 | Tentatively , with surveillance , security is on the whole tightened . |
| 174 | Perhaps , the increases in the number of terrorists attack have proven to us that governments should also tap on the advantages of current technology to counter those sophisticated attacks carried out by the terrorists . |
| 175 | The current technology has made it possible for the surveillance system to be used in our daily lives , such as electronic payment , supply chain management , and livestock . |
| 176 | Furthermore , individuals would behave themselves upon knowing that they are constantly being " watched " , leading to a possible decrease in crime rates . |
| 177 | In some western countries like USA , England and others surveillance technology has been widely used to monitor public action , when a crime happen , cob can track down the crime very efficient . |
| 178 | Surveillance technology can be used to control the outspread of acute diseases . |
| 179 | Opposition argues that with CCTV cameras , criminals will be aware that they are being watched and so the crime rate is reduced . |
| 180 | Although the use of surveillance technology in passports may not be perfect , with the rapid advancement in technological research , continuous improvement can be done in order to further enhance the security aspect of a passport . |
| 181 | In conclusion , although the individuals ' rights to privacy have been eroded with the increased surveillance , we should continue the usage of the technology because the security of a country and the safety of its citizens are always of utmost importance to everyone . |
| 182 | Some have claimed that the application of surveillance technology is advantageous in the safeguard of credentials , protection of national security and in the help of speed border crossings ( Lewan , 2009 ) . |
| 183 | They also point out that governments would not abuse the information on their hands since they are also monitored by the people .Additionally , surveillance creates in everyone a feeling of being watched , so one becomes self-policing , which can decrease crime rates and save administrative expenditure ( Foucault , 1979 ) . |
| 184 | The most common type of surveillance technology is the security camera . |
| 185 | These uses of surveillance technology have in many cases , brought about many benefits to mankind but there is also an increasing call for the ban of the usage of surveillance technology to track people as many are concerned with the loss of privacy and the exploitation of personal information . |
| 186 | Moreover , tracking devices are able to assist law enforcement personnel to monitor suspects closely ( Michael , K & Rose , G , 2007 ) . |
| 187 | Furthermore criminals are becoming wiser each day ; they may outsmart the technology by hacking into the system to prevent them from being caught . |
| 188 | Firstly , using surveillance technology for crime prevention is far more important than individual privacy . |
| 189 | Another point to be raised is that surveillance technology may not be effective in preventing or reducing crime rates as many people assume that they do . |
| 190 | In conclusion , the disadvantages of surveillance technology outweigh the advantages . |
| 191 | Though some suggest that surveillance technology benefits us the negative implications outweigh the benefits . |
| 192 | The past few decades have seen the improvement in technology by leaps and bounds , and one key area which we have benefitted from is the use of surveillance technology . |
| 193 | On the other hand , some argued that such method has inevitably threatened the most basic human rights to freedom as every movement or speech , for more advanced devices , is meticulously monitored . |
| 194 | Furthermore , surveillance technology has created many and upsets in the balance of our society . |
| 195 | While supporters argue that surveillance technology brings benefits to the human race , the harms it causes when it is excessively misused outweigh the benefits . |
| 196 | Furthermore , the use of surveillance technology may result in adverse psychological impacts on human beings . |
| 197 | Over the years , surveillance technology has advanced drastically and it has slowly integrated into our daily life where video cameras can be commonly seen monitoring us in shopping centre 's , workplaces and residential areas . |
| 198 | In the case of surveillance technology , we should concentrate on how to use it appropriately . |
| 199 | Surveillance technology allow others to monitor our daily activities and record these data in the form of CCTV ( closed-circuit television ) images , communication records and content enabling them to have access to our personal information . |
| 200 | While some suggest that the use of this technology brings benefits to both the country and the world , it in fact not only affects the country 's safety but also the citizens ' privacy in the country . |
| 201 | Surveillance cameras might also cause psychological impacts , where individuals will have the thought that they are constantly being watched . |
| 202 | This technology fights terrorism to make the world a safer place. . |
| 203 | Technological advancement has made it possible to track people using electronic devices . |
| 204 | Lastly , the use of surveillance technology can be abused by the government and or any agency that uses it . |
| 205 | Surveillance technology is essential in the military sector to track enemies and to search and rescue soldiers . |
| 206 | In addition , surveillance technology disturbs the society . |
| 207 | As with the surveillance technology , we have to adopt it while making a great effort to establish a complete and reasonable set of principles surrounding it to make it more acceptable . |
| 208 | The implementation of such a system has successfully foiled some of the terrorists ' plans . |
| 209 | Through video and satellite surveillance , polices can track the movement of dangerous criminals and terrorists . |
| 210 | Another sector using surveillance technology to track people would be the medical field . |
| 211 | Surveillance of terrorist focus on countering terrorist threats and allows the government body to intervene before a catastrophe takes place . |
| 212 | While some hold that it intrudes people 's privacy intensely , it in fact protects people in certain fields and makes life easier . |
| 213 | To conclude , it is indisputable that the advantages of surveillance technology outweigh the negative effects . |
| 214 | However , surveillance technology is a tool ; all technologies can be used in positive or negative way . |
| 215 | In recent years , numerous state-of-the-art surveillance devices and software emerged rapidly . |
| 216 | Surveillance technology has been used as a tool for illegitimate activities which in turn threatens public safety and security . |
| 217 | Surveillance has been around for hundreds of years but technology has 'springboarded ' it to a much higher level . |
| 218 | In fact , crime rates would probably be much higher if there are totally no surveillance cameras around . |
| 219 | Secondly , surveillance technology can be used in healthcare and independent living for safeguarding purposes . |
| 220 | A thorough inspection in surveillance |
| 221 | In a more specific context , monitoring is crucial to suppress transnational crime . |
| 222 | The benefits of surveillance technology conspicuously outweigh the concerns about human privacy issues that are so often brought up by human rights bodies and the law ( Michael & Rose , 2007 ) . |
| 223 | They are also well guarded to deter any terrorist attacks . |
| 224 | These gadgets act as a deterrent to crimes for it captures the illegal acts on tape , and forces a potential criminal to think twice before committing felony . |
| 225 | Strict measures have been taken to detect and anticipate any potential terrorist attack . |
| 226 | While it may have its advantages of being able to record down the scene of the location it is allocated , the issue on privacy and effectiveness sets in . |
| 227 | A lot of surveillance technologies have been invented and developed . |
| 228 | Critics argue that such surveillance technology is able to track an individual on a regular basis , thus there is a compromise of one 's privacy ( Michael & Rose , 2007 , p. 2 ) . |
| 229 | Moreover , if the government enhances the degree of secrecy of the surveillance technology , these people with evil thoughts may have a hard time to approach it . |
| 230 | Surveillance technology has also been used in emergencies such as the outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome ( SARS ) . |
| 231 | This helps in preventing terrorism as appropriate measures can be taken to stop terrorists from entering the country . |
| 232 | With the help of modern technology , humans are able to create increasingly efficient devices which are able to store relevant personal information or to trace one 's location . |
| 233 | This is primarily due to the fear of privacy invasion , dehumanization , and the social impact of mass surveillance after putting such technology in place . |
| 234 | There are several applications of surveillance technologies in the medical field . |
| 235 | Furthermore , scientists around the world have intensified efforts to perfect the art of surveillance , hoping to catch villains before they strike . |
| 236 | All these technologies are to deter and detect enemies so countries are not caught unawares should enemies invade . |
| 237 | In conclusion , there are some issues about using surveillance technologies to track people in the social , medical and military aspects . |
| 238 | Although until now there are still many debates about the ethical issues of surveillance technology , it after all still benefits the communities in many respects , so banning of surveillance technology should not be initiated . |
| 239 | As mentioned in the previous paragraph , the surveillance camera could enable the police to identify the terrorists easily after the attack and arrest them . |
| 240 | The open-street camera surveillance that has been used widely by many countries in the current society is likely to result in an unhealthy psychological impact on the citizens of the country . |
| 241 | For instance , the installment of Closed-Circuit Television ( CCTV ) in the multi-storey parking lots of a building will enable the security guards to monitor the situation and to pick out suspicious behavior . |
| 242 | Knowing that they are being spied on , they will have a lesser tendency to commit crimes . |
| 243 | It is useful in anti-terrorism . |
| 244 | Although one may argue that terrorist attacks still occur even with the use of surveillance camera , one should also note that the recordings would enable the police to identify the terrorists after the attack and conduct a swift operation to arrest them ( Quek , 2008 ) before they could plan and carry out their next mission . |
| 245 | One 's privacy has always been the utmost importance in our society but the benefits brought about by surveillance technology have been numerous and can not be ignored . |
| 246 | If we persist with the banning of surveillance technology , the public will be exposed to a dangerous environment in which crime will happen frequently . |
| 247 | Not only will surveillance technology invade our privacy , it might also cause individuals to develop health problems . |
| 248 | The opposition may not be completely correct since it will take time to produce a new technology to close in on the criminals and several crimes would have occurred during this period . |
| 249 | Surveillance technology is necessary in today 's society ( Evans , 2008 ) , although some people may feel that it is an invasion of privacy ( Kanellos , 2004 ) . |
| 250 | This surveillance technology equipment is installed in buses , common places or schools and with the constant video monitoring , detailed evidence of any suspicious movement or criminal activity can be assessed . |
| 251 | This method is highly efficient compared to traditional passport controls and surveillance methods . |
| 252 | Different companies also try to find new methods to prevent sneak shots . |
| 253 | While not compromising the benefits it brings , the ethical and moral issues regarding surveillance technology far outweigh the benefits it brings . |
| 254 | However , the opposition may argue that another novel surveillance technology will probably be invented to counter against such criminals . |
| 255 | Whereas advocates of such surveillance technologies emphasize on the benefits such as to promote work efficiency and secure communal settings , opponents strike back by stating intensified concerns related to individual privacy . |
| 256 | Technological advances in the recent century have led to many improved methods to trace people . |
| 257 | Nowadays , surveillance technology is growing at a rapid speed and surveillance equipments can be found in many common places such as supermarkets , schools and airport terminal . |
| 258 | Tracking activities plays a crucial role in identifying terrorists and monitoring ex-criminals . |
| 259 | First , surveillance is very useful to hospitals and governments . |
| 260 | There are views that it should be allowed on the grounds that such tracking devices actually bring about many benefits , but these benefits come at a heavy price ; our privacy and rights . |
| 261 | This technology has brought about privacy and security issues ( Kanellos , 2004 ; Masters & Michael , 2006 ) . |
| 262 | Even though it may not be an ideal and effective way to curb criminal offenses , it can on the other hand allow authorities to work more efficiently when an incident occurs . |
| 263 | Billions are spent every year to develop , purchase , maintain and implement the surveillance system to intercept and analyze online information . |
| 264 | Surveillance technology has advanced rapidly over the years and is commonly seen in many places , from leisure places to workplaces and even to our lifts and homes . |
| 265 | In conclusion , the effects of surveillance technology surrounding us is based on both major and minor premises , which are privacy and right of freedom of individuals , as well as the psychological condition . |

| 267 | Surveillance is no longer unfamiliar in the era of technology-based society . |
| 268 | Hence , it would be harder for terrorists to steal or use the material . |
| 269 | As we know it today , the use of surveillance technology is globally used as a mass communication . |
| 270 | While most propositions agree to ban the use of surveillance technology , they have in fact overlooked the actual and potential benefits of the surveillance technology . |
| 271 | Obviously , the feeling of being tracked will make people feel uncomfortable but the our safety is more precious . |
| 272 | This is very helpful in tracing and revealing the roots of terrorism and reduces the level criminal cases . |
| 273 | Nonetheless , the generalization of certain simple surveillance technologies causes their existence everywhere . |
| 274 | However , privacy issues arise when the same technology is used for tracking humans ( Cormode 2006 ) . |
| 275 | Law enforcement agencies are able to identify terrorists and put a stop to their plans . |
| 276 | To elaborate , the benefits of surveillance might be classified into two categories . |
| 277 | Though the consequence that people will be tracked seems unacceptable , the safety and convenience in life for humans is more important . |
| 278 | Surveillance technology on healthcare |

| 11 | The time saved from medical tests prior to an emergency operation might then improve the chances of a successful attempt to save the patient 's life . |
| 12 | For example , new and better treatment methods like open heart surgery or radiotherapy help increase the chances of recovery and decrease time required for recovery from illnesses . |
| 13 | For example , advancements in the medical field can save more people 's lives . |
| 14 | Moreover , with recent advances in science , more treatments can be developed to treat disease . |
| 15 | Once government sufficiently finances medical research , more diseases can be cured or prevented more effectively . |
| 16 | New surveillance technology can assist by reducing the delay in treating a patient , reducing errors in treatment , locating vital equipment and medical staff in a timely manner , tracking samples , test results and the patients themselves ( Collins , 2004 ) . |
| 17 | They may have medical check-up more frequently and if there is any disorder that can threaten their life , it will be identified soon and it is always better when we can control a disease when it has not become worse yet . |
| 18 | This helps them to make informed choices about their health and maybe seek treatment before the disease becomes worse . |
| 19 | This would then lead to necessary treatment to save lives . |
| 20 | This research and technology will be used in finding new cures for certain diseases , developing of new treatments and increasing the success rate of surgery . |
| 21 | Better clinical images would also be provided to the doctors ; as a result , doctors would be able to provide a clearer diagnosis of the disease/illness of the patient . |
| 22 | Nevertheless , such applications have helped to reduce the time spent in hospitals and medical costs , improve record tracking practices and speed of communication . |
| 23 | This would then enable earlier medical interventions and ensures higher survival rate . |
| 24 | With modern research , medicine have been produced to assist in treating the problems . |
| 25 | Indirectly , it could help in medical research development and make treatment for currently untreatable diseases possible . |
| 26 | It will benefit the future generations as scientists will be able to find new or more effective cures and treatments for the disease . |
| 27 | This will enhance safety of patients . |
| 28 | However , with the current developments and advanced medical help available , these sufferings would be reduced . |
| 29 | This would then allow them to identify the possible illness and seek proper treatment early so as to reduce the chance of it developing into a terminal disease which would then in turn reduce the amount of money spent on treatment . |
| 30 | Extensive research and development has been done in the medical field to make our lives easier . |
| 31 | This can lead to the best health care of the patients . |
| 32 | In case the test results are positive , they will be able to receive medical treatment to reduce risk . |
| 33 | Researchers also hope to develop early detection methods which help by prescribing preventive medication before the actual occurrence of the disease . |
| 34 | With this easy access to patients ' medical information , the fatality rate due to lack of information available to medical personnel will be reduced dramatically . |
| 35 | The storage of key medical records and information in a radio-transmitting chip will cut down time spent on rregistration , thus , allowing patients to receive prompt treatment . |
| 36 | " In order to do this they need to protect and treat the patients in a way that will not be detrimental and hopefully will improve their state of health . |
| 37 | Permanent and irreversible damages can be prevented if treatment or therapy is initiated in the early stage of the disease |
| 38 | Firstly , its use in hospitals is important as it reduces the chances of misidentification of patients . |
| 39 | It has improved our quality of life in many ways , especially in the field of medical science . |
| 40 | Furthermore , with the constantly improving technology in the medical field , many medical procedures have been simplified from surgery that requires hospitalisation to an outpatient procedure . |
| 41 | Through research and development , more effective medicines have been invented to cater to different types of problems . |
| 42 | This surveillance technology has allowed the healthcare professionals to perform their jobs efficiently and improve the well-being of the patients . |
| 43 | For example like machines for radiotherapy , dialysis , etc have helped people to recover from the sicknesses . |
| 44 | This would help reduce the chance of getting the cancer if preventative measures have been taken earlier . |
| 45 | It helps to enhance management , reduce crimes and enable optimal patient care . |
| 46 | They can then be prepared for these diseases and not become depressed about them easily . |
| 47 | Initially , the requirements for this design to kick start were its effectiveness in performing surgery , its ability to be user-friendly and the capacity of it to work without posing potential danger to the patient . |
| 48 | By investing money in research and development , more is done to explore new treatment solutions for existing illness thus , allowing healthcare treatments to be more efficient . |
| 49 | Firstly , modern medicine is now able to cure or treat many diseases that were once terminal . |
| 50 | This approach will help to free up beds in the acute hospital for more severe cases to be treated . |
| 51 | Many diseases can be detected earlier and thus prevented . |
| 52 | In many cases lives of the patients can be saved if the surgeries did carry out on time . |
| 53 | He and his can find ways to cure the disease . Similarly , a couple can prepare treatment for their child , one can have a right job to do , and he can prevent the disease to cause danger to people around him . |
| 54 | New age technologies like these have helped doctors to react within precious seconds in saving a person 's life . |
| 55 | For instance , Research and Development ( R&D ) has enabled cancer to be more controllable now . |
| 56 | Science has helped scientists to find out more treatments that can cure illnesses like cancer , stroke , heart problem , etc . |
| 57 | This prepares the medical sector to handle these illnesses . |
| 58 | They can also assess the their patient 's condition in a shorter and more accurate time frame . |
| 59 | Furthermore , advances in healthcare quality can be attributed to new medical technologies and diagnostic tools . |
| 60 | Surveillance technology provide a good solution for this problem by helping the hospital to shorten the time to locate their staffs , the equipment , and most important the patients . |
| 61 | First and foremost , usage of surveillance technology in the hospital can improve the success rate of treatment especially for emergency cases . |
| 62 | Moreover , early detection can lead to a lower risk of disease . |
| 63 | Firstly , modern medical research is able to treat and cure deadly diseases that we were incapable of previously . |
| 64 | In addition to that , the work of medical scientists also reduced pain to a great extent . |
| 65 | This will raise the efficiency of treatment done in the hospital and also prevent patients from leaving the hospital without receiving full treatment . |
| 66 | This will not only ensure that they are being looked after by a dedicated healthcare team but it will also alleviate the problem of bed shortages . |
| 67 | With the development of infrastructure and medical field as mentioned above , these problems are better handled . |
| 68 | However with R&D in the area of heart-related diseases , has led to the developments of new drugs and treatments to control and reduce the effects of heart failures in their everyday life . |
| 69 | Medical researches have moderately changed these couples ' lives , and also found a new path for further discoveries . |
| 70 | There is a higher chance of curing a genetic disease if it is detected early . |
| 71 | However , scientists are now offering glimmers of hope by making headway on research to diagnose , treat , prevent and optimistically to cure this devastating disease . |
| 72 | Some of the genetic diseases could be cured if it is detected early . |
| 73 | Investing in technology in the form of research and development will allow medical advancement as well as better facilities for medical cares . |
| 74 | Early detection allows the carrier to undergo treatment earlier when the genetic problem is still at its infant stage , and thus the problem will be easier to control as compared to its later stage . |
| 75 | With these preparations , the surgeons can have a better understanding and hands-on experience of the system , making it less likely for mistakes to happen . |
| 76 | Another reason this technology should not be banned is the improvement it will bring about in the healthcare sector . |
| 77 | For example , Stem Cell technology greatly helps to aid the discovery of new medicines by improving the process of developing new compounds . |
| 78 | In life and death situation , doctors that are in the vicinity of the operation theatre can be called in for help instantly , hence saving time . |
| 79 | It is important for the elderly to know how and where to seek for help once they have contracted an illness . They can tackle the illness at its earlier stage , thus reducing the hefty healthcare costs if it were treated at a much later stage . |
| 80 | These will provide more opportunities for treatment and shorten the traveling time in a time of emergency . |
| 81 | It also acts as a useful tool to ensure the patients in hospitals are well-taken care of . |
| 82 | Even if they do not develop the genetic diseases , the precautions taken at an earlier stage of their lives may protect them from other forms of illnesses that may not be caused by their genes . |
| 83 | In this way , human error is eliminated and people can see the doctor and get their medication in a faster way . |
| 84 | " From these , we can see that patients are definitely benefiting in many ways especially when the they are able to go back to their normal daily life within a shorter recovery time . |
| 85 | Investment in the healthcare sector could bring about new and more efficient medical technologies . |
| 86 | Development of new treatment for currently untreatable diseases is also possible . |
| 87 | It helps the doctor to diagnose diseases at an earlier stage . |
| 88 | As medical technology advanced , heavy amounts of research and development have been put to finding a better alternative for saving cardiovascular disease patients . |
| 89 | Relatives prone to the disease can also take necessary precautions to prevent the illness from developing ( Cancer.net Editorial Board , 2009 ) . |
| 90 | Early detection of cancer will not only keep it under control but also keep loved ones safe . |
| 91 | Whilst some insisted that the disclosure of the results is necessary because it leads to early detection of a disease and thus enhances preventability and treatability . |
| 92 | For example , these funds can be used in the research and development of cures for terminal illnesses like cancer . |
| 93 | An example would be neonatal screening for sickle cell disease , when an affected child is diagnosed with this disease at an early stage , it can reduce childhood mortality and morbidity ( Nuffiel Council , 1997 ) . |
| 94 | Besides that , the invention of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( MRI ) has also contributed to easing the aging process as cancer is able to be detected more accurately compared to when previous imaging technologies were used . |
| 95 | Research in this field , increasing training of surgeons , and improvements of other significant issues are conducted to achieve better acceptance of this technology . |
| 96 | Secondly , time saved on retrieving essential information of patients during an emergency could be put into treating the patients ( http : //www.verichipcorp.com ) . |
| 97 | Hence , in knowing this information at an early stage , early preventive measures can be taken to reduce the possibility of developing the breast cancer by controlling one 's lifestyle . |
| 98 | Secondly , medical professionals assert that the use of surveillance technology aids in improvements in medical care . |
| 99 | It is beneficial as it points out the underlying genetic condition of an individual who is prone to a particular genetic disorder , giving the individual the opportunity to seek treatment before the genetic disease comes into effect ( Nuffiel Council , 1997 ) . |
| 100 | If necessary , they can receive the proper medical treatment in time , for instance , prophylactic surgery . |
| 101 | That would save a lot of preliminary assessment procedures and help avoid many unnecessary complications like allergies . |
| 102 | Patients will be able to receive immediate and proper medical attention , which in certain cases can be a matter of life and death . |
| 103 | Firstly , technological inventions in the field of science have made health care more efficient . |
| 104 | In some circumstances , it is possible to cure a genetic disease in early stage . |
| 105 | Quick access to the lifestyle of a patient helps in effective diagnosis of the patient 's diseases in the future . |
| 106 | Nevertheless , it has the ability to track criminals , improve the efficiency of our healthcare system , as well as to expedite the cracking of criminal cases . |
| 107 | Moreover , the country would also be more prepared in case of a pandemic such as the H1N1 virus . |
| 108 | However , early notification can let them have enough time to have psychological preparation so that they would not feel so unprepared or unready when the patients ' condition worsens . |
| 109 | Individuals can reduce the risk of getting this disease . |
| 110 | It also alerts them to early detection and treatment . |
| 111 | With the the advancement of medical technologies , illnesses such as cardiovascular and cataract diseases have lesser occurrence . |
| 112 | If they are informed of the result , they might avoid the risk of developing the disease . |
| 113 | This scheme is aiming to help the people who suffer from major or prolonged diseases . |
| 114 | Therefore , some research in economics , science and medicine might help to ease the problem . |
| 115 | It is a newly developed technology to help enhance the quality of surgery . |
| 116 | In line with that , there will an increase for demand of medications to prevent and treat chronic illnesses and also to improve quality of life . |
| 117 | Furthermore , the ability to predict familial diseases such as a certain type of cancer at a young age may allow for possible successful treatment or cure , extension of life expectancy and improvement in quality of life . |
| 118 | If they are being alerted to such a condition , they will be able to seek possible treatments and receive warnings to avoid detrimental environment stimuli . |
| 119 | The decision to reveal a genetic test result such as that for breast cancer would help early detection and treatment . |
| 120 | In fact , the risk and severity of certain adult onset genetic disorders can be alleviated by preventative measures and treatments . |
| 121 | Therefore a more efficient way of allowing people to see doctors is needed . |
| 122 | Chemotherapy is often recommended to cure the disease depending on the patient 's condition . |
| 123 | It successfully has successfully saved the people people who suffered from the diseases and given them happiness to have the chance to live again . |
| 124 | For instance , the use of ultrasound vibration to remove cataracts through a small incision results in faster visual recovery after surgery . |
| 125 | Also , with the insurance coverage , an individual can seek adequate medical treatment to recover from any sickness . |
| 126 | With the occurrence and wide spread of mutant viruses and disease , medical research serves a greater purpose for survival of the infected patients and drugs can be manufactured in large quantities and be easily available for them . |
| 127 | This signifies a massive improvement in recovery time and less pain endured by patients ( Young , 2007 ) . |
| 128 | However , this is based on the assumption that people are optimistic and they will undergo treatments upon knowing that the disorder is treatable . |
| 129 | When the other family members or relatives have an early detection of such diseases like Marfan syndrome , they are able to take preventive measures early like consulting a doctor , taking medications that could slow down the heart rate in order to prevent stress on the aorta and avoiding having sports to prevent of injuring the heart ( Haldeman-Englert , C. , May 15 , 2008 ) . |
| 130 | On the treatment front , improvements in pin-hole surgery have greatly minimized the trauma to the patient , leading to shorted recovery time . |
| 131 | " Hence it can be seen that the current research and development of medicine is indeed very beneficial but it is necessary that we best solve the issues arising from having better medicine and medical facilities , which brings us to the next point , government and social policy . |
| 132 | Thus her child might not suffer as much as children who undergo treatment only when the symptoms arise . |
| 133 | If the disease has not developed , steps like making changes to their health habits can be taken which might lower their chance of getting the disease ( National Human Genome Research Institute , 2009 , Aug 14 ) . |
| 134 | These tasks are increasingly needed to improve the level of technology in medical treatments today . |
| 135 | At the same time , health problems also created great needs for advanced medical technologies and facilities . |
| 136 | They can prepare themselves for medical problems that they may have and make informed choices on the course of action . |
| 137 | The opportunity to test and implement meant that the surgical system was ready to start its race in addressing health concerns . |
| 138 | For , technologies can assist in their healthcare |
| 139 | In this situation , the patient is unduly putting others at risk as knowledge of inheriting a disease could help to save a patient if diagnosed and treated early . |
| 140 | These taxes have been used in the development of medical technology to help cure the incurable , such as heart attack , tuberculosis , cornea impairment and cataract . |
| 141 | The tracking of patients is particularly useful in the protection of infant babies , alzcheimer 's patients and others with special vulnerabilities ( Dr. Counse , n.d. ) It alerts the staff should the patient encounter a mishap or wander away . |
| 142 | As technology advances , new methods of treatment and medicine will be invented . |
| 143 | These treatments will be helpful because people get increasingly susceptible to chronic illnesses . |
| 144 | These records contain both medical chart information and digital photos to minimize the frequency of surgical errors and improve the efficiency of operating rooms during the clinical process . |
| 145 | They have both brought benefits to people in the medical field . |
| 146 | With investment in technologies , it provides new opportunities for medical interventions . |
| 147 | It is a system that enables surgeons to carry out operation with better precision . |
| 148 | However , the knowledge of the possibility of a genetic disease enables the medical physician to narrow down to specific testing and get the correct diagnosis earlier . |
| 149 | However , research has shown that for many diseases like diabetes , kidney failure , heart diseases and so forth , the chances of recovery are much higher if the disease were diagnosed in the early stages . |
| 150 | If they were found to have the probability of getting the disease , they could then be more mentally prepared due to the early notice . |
| 151 | Therefore , these investments on medical research will definitely be very useful in the near future . |
| 152 | This provides safe operation for the surgeons and better control of the system . |
| 153 | They should be offered free medical check-ups and treatment if necessary . |
| 154 | As such , one 's family may be 'empowered ' ( Cancer.net Editorial Board , 2009 ) to make apt decisions which reduce the risk of developing the illness . |
| 155 | This will help the doctors to analyse a patient with improved detailed images . |
| 156 | Further experiments and tests helped the bioscientists to discover the beneficial effects of this agent for surgery and other purposes . |
| 157 | These solutions are mostly in the area of medicine , technology and society which are essential in slowing the and eradicating this problem in the future . |
| 158 | This will help them determine their course of treatment or at least make precautions ( Allen , 2006 , Future samples , para . |
| 159 | Crimes like this should be attended to in the shortest possible time as it may result in injuries or even death of victims . |
| 160 | Thus , illness such as heart disease , cancer and diabetes and other disease can be prevented . |
| 161 | Besides , with the help of science , the percentage of a surgery to succeed is getting higher . |
| 162 | These help the patient to decide the best treatment for them . |
| 163 | Prior warning of a carrier can actually prevent unexpected death of blood relatives during surgery ( Andrews , 1994 ) . |
| 164 | If the result is positive , then they will receive necessary treatment . |
| 165 | The combination of the two will also bring modern surgery up to a new level . |
| 166 | Surveillance technology results in safety in the medical sector . |
| 167 | These technologies are beneficial in medical field , social security and natural disaster rescue or investigation . |
| 168 | This scenario maximizes efficiency as government hospitals will be able to deliver high quality medical skills and the community hospitals will be able to tend to patients ' psychology and social needs better . |
| 169 | They are believed to have the ability to create brand new organs , curing an array of serious diseases and even perhaps solving human ageing problems , . |
| 170 | For instance , if the family member is informed that she is at high risk of a genetic disease like cystic fibrosis that may cause suffering to her child , she might soon discover that this disease is treatable as soon as the child is born . |
| 171 | The American Society of Clinical Oncology concurs that disclosure may be permitted if the carrier refuse to disclose the information ; the disease caused by the disorder is highly probable to occur , serious , yet preventable and treatable or with early monitoring could reduce its risk . |
| 172 | Promoting healthy lifestyles and imparting valuable knowledge on healthcare are some of the options . |
| 173 | When the result of the test is positive , those who have a genetic risk will receive appropriate treatment . |
| 174 | If they are tested with the same increased genetic risk , it will allow them to have early preventive medical treatment ( US National Institute of Health , 1998 ) . |
| 175 | Today , many medicines have been created to treat cancers or other health problems . |
| 176 | Remarkable breakthroughs , particularly in the field of genetics , allow humans to better understand the cause of diseases , so as to formulate cure or preventive drugs that can be tailored to individual idiosyncrasies . |
| 177 | Technology can be used as a solution to cope with the current healthcare challenges we are faced with . |
| 178 | Diseases , such as tuberculosis , which were deemed incurable in the past , can now be easily treated by the level of medical procedures . |
| 179 | Nonetheless , it is more persuasive to believe that surveillance technology helps in the tracking of properties and improvements in medical care . |
| 180 | ( Kristen , 2005 ) Therefore , the hospital will be able to handle more patients , reducing the cost needed from patients for the surgery . |
| 181 | They will feel relieved that they have found an explanation on why individuals are suffering from cancer or diseases . |
| 182 | For example , a patient that has cancer can undergo several treatments to control the spread of the cancerous cells . |
| 183 | ( Gene Reviews ) Hence , this is crucial to save a hemophiliac from over bleeding especially if he or she is unaware of such a condition . |
| 184 | For instance , according to the US national institute of health ( when tumors of colon cancer are discovered early , the chances for survival are the greatest and this prevents thousands of cancer deaths a year . |
| 185 | Should they test positive for the particular mutation , preventive measures and cost-effective treatments could be carried out to reduce the risk of developing the disease ( The Changes in Health Care Financing and Organization ( HCFO ) , 2005 ) but not every person with the mutation would develop the disease eventually . |
| 186 | Medical technologies are still advancing and treatments are being catered to a wide array of medical fields . |
| 187 | Since there is no symptom of such disease in the early and most treatable stage , revealing of testing result by the carrier would alert the relevant third party to undergo similar testing and receive necessary treatment if it is a positive result . |
| 188 | In many cases , the faster the surgeries can be carry out the higher the success rate of the surgeries are . |
| 189 | This new imaging technology must have the advantages of both the non-invasive and invasive imaging . |
| 190 | This may prevent the diseases from being passed down to the future generation . |
| 191 | The risk of the future generation in inheriting genetic diseases can also be reduced . |
| 192 | In most of cases , scientists discovered medicine and the cure as soon as they discovered the causes of certain diseases . |
| 193 | Furthermore , they can be subjected to early treatment should they get diagnosed with the disease ( Babowice , 2008 ) . |
| 194 | This may also lower the risk of developing stress-induced illnesses such as cancer as well ( Morin & Huot , 2004 ) . |
| 195 | Thus they will undergo testing and treatment for that specific disease as soon as possible . |
| 196 | In order for us to progress faster , more money needs to be pumped to the research sector so that discoveries like cures for illnesses , could be discovered faster . |
| 197 | Other drugs such as Rember , are announced to delay progression of the disease up to 81 percent while Dimebon promised to power and halt the perishing of brain cells |
| 198 | Furthermore , a change in lifestyle can also reduce possible effects of genetic disease like homocytinuria which is the genetic disorder of collagen through a therapeutic diet . |
| 199 | If they know about the , they can seek help from doctors in order to prevent developing the heritable disease ( Takala & Gylling , 2001 ) . |
| 200 | Previously incurable diseases such as tubercolosis can be eradicated and this leads to an increase in life span and higher quality of life . |
| 201 | This is to prevent misidentification of patients from happening . |
| 202 | The technological advancement in medical science will be discussed to address some of the issues mentioned . |
| 203 | With the systematic design processing , there will be more upcoming amazing healthcare products in the future . |
| 204 | Long term illness such as diabetes is more effectively controlled , and the treatment process has become less painful . |
| 205 | RFID allows health conditions of patients such as blood pressure , heart rate and blood sugar level to be kept in check from time to time with ease . |
| 206 | Meanwhile the adjusted daylight can also benefit their health . |
| 207 | This includes Research and Development ( R&D ) where more efficient healthcare methods can be devised . |
| 208 | Then again , if relatives know that a genetic disease is hereditary and went for a genetic test to prove that they do not have the mutation that would put them at a higher risk of developing the disease , they would be able to get insured earlier ( Ostrom , 1997 ) . |
| 209 | However , in cases where revealing the result is necessary to prevent an imminent threat to others , doctors are able to make this decision on behalf of the patient ( Sharpe and Carter 2006 ) . |
| 210 | For example , the invention of high blood pressure and diabetes monitors helped people , especially the elderly to be more aware of and to be more able to monitor their own health conditions . |
| 211 | The advanced technologies have proven to enhance the comfort zone with sophisticated medical equipment and lifestyle electronic products . |
| 212 | With the testing the relatives could make adjustments to their lifestyle to lower the risk and also to prepare case of ever developing the illness ( Sturm , Varga 2008 ) . |
| 213 | Emergency respond units are able to have detailed medical records of the patients before arrival and apply the appropriate pre-treatment before sending the patient to hospital . |
| 214 | Of course , if the disorder is treatable , one would not worry so much about the consequences . |
| 215 | Consequently , the chance of an early death due to the genetic disease is reduced since one is not exposed to the decisive risk factor . |
| 216 | As the world develops and progresses in medical science as well as in other fields , fields it has enabled the human race to make suitable changes . |
| 217 | For example , Research and Development in pharmaceuticals is particularly important as the creation of new drugs will help in the advancement of medical and clinical studies . |
| 218 | Many health problems can not be addressed without the help of medical devices |
| 219 | Hence , alerting these potential disease carriers is essential such that similar genetic testing can be done , either to rule out any possibilities of carrying that particular DNA mutation or to detect the chances of developing the genetic disorder and apply treatments or preventative measures as early as possible . |
| 220 | The money used to futher develop this technology and to implement this technology would be better spent on more useful areas such as education and medicine . |
| 221 | In this way , the chances of the next generation of getting the same genetic disorder will be significantly reduced . |
| 222 | With proper medication , the 2 medical ailments would have a lower probability to lead to kidney damage . The treatment of this illness is more difficult than the common ailments . |
| 223 | Some diseases that can be detected by genetic testing like Marfan syndrome - a connective tissue disorder causing long limbs and heart defects ( Haldeman- Englert , C. , May 15 , 2008 ) can be controlled and treated . |
| 224 | Moreover , this service system allows patients to get consultation from doctors using the device whenever they feel unwell . |
| 225 | Some diseases are treatable in the presymptomatic stage . |
| 226 | The elderly can be stronger and fewer of them will be suffering from medical conditions , such as stroke , diabetes , cancer and high blood pressure . |
| 227 | Thus , the offspring will not have the defective genes , hence lowering its possibility of developing the disease . |
| 228 | An example of prevention would be an individual affected by the BRCA gene undergoing a mastectomy which would reduce the chances of developing breast cancer from 85 % to 1 % ( http : //www.medscape.com/viewarticle/573060 ) . |
| 229 | This technology is largely applied in the field of medical treatment today . |
| 230 | Therefore they need the aid of the government to help them cope with their medical issues and their daily lives . |
| 231 | This is because extremely sensitive elements are used to capture the patients ' situation during the surgery . |
| 232 | Therefore they argue that more and more money would be spent on researching new technologies to cure illnesses . |
| 233 | In the category of drugs , improvement and discovery of new drugs allow greater management of age-related problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes . |
| 234 | Medical technologies have developed to be more advanced and sophisticated over the years . |
| 235 | This results in the need to undergo several medical treatments . |
| 236 | This greatly increases the chances of help arriving in a timely manner . |
| 237 | Thus , surveillance technology should be used to track patients and infants to ensure safety . |
| 238 | If the carrier has a possibility of having heart disease , the rest of the family members may take steps to counteract that predictive disease ( Genetic Research and Genetic Testing , 2005 ) . |
| 239 | If carriers are responsible and share their testing results , people can come together to weed out the problem by say eradicating malaria . |
| 240 | Preventive measures can be taken before symptoms of the inherited disorder develop ( Lee , 2005 ) . |
| 241 | Many diseases that have plagued mankind in the past are now curable or can be vaccinated . |
| 242 | In the event that one of the carrier 's relatives discover that he is affected by the disorder , preventive measures can be taken in anticipation of the disease and in the event that the disease is incurable , palliative steps can be planned . |
| 243 | Meanwhile , this disastrous accident may be prevented if the relative is informed of the result by the carrier . |
| 244 | Administrative procedures are greatly reduced , and the patient 's vital records , for example drug allergies are readily retrievable . |
| 245 | One example of this type of technology is Aerotel 's Medical Parameters Monitoring ( MPM ) devices , which allow data to be stored for immediate consultation and treatment , as well as for future reference . |
| 246 | As a result , the chances of suffering from those inherited disorders can be lowered . |
| 247 | We have to use it carefully to utilise it to the maximum in the medical field , improving social security and assists in rescues or investigation operations . |
| 248 | A good example is the conversion of current medical records to technological solutions . |
| 249 | Warfarin can also help to prevent formation of future blood clots . |
| 250 | Thus they can seek treatment or go for a cataract surgery if needed . |
| 251 | In a research done by the Imperial College London ( ) , " The results showed that within a year of treatment , there was a 21 % reduction in death rates and a 64 % drop in heart failure , 39 % drop in stroke deaths and 34 % reduction in cardiovascular events . |
| 252 | Perhaps someday , the human ageing problems will be solved just purely by replacing old organs and injecting new cells to repair old and damaged tissues ? |
| 253 | For instance , diabetes can be due to genetic causes and one way to prevent or delay the onset of this genetic risk is to lead a healthy lifestyle which excludes excessive intake of sugar . |
| 254 | More often than not , those people who were waiting in the line were in urgent need of medical attention . |
| 255 | According to the Lancet , a renowned medical journal , new drugs in the market allow patients to control their blood pressure or sugar level without the need for so much dietary restrictions . |
| 256 | For example , if the genetic disorder is colon cancer , they can seek medical advice and treatment while it is at an early stage . |
| 257 | Firstly , it may help prevent the individual from encountering a situation where he is denied of insurance coverage when the health insurer finds out the affected individual could be prone to a one or more genetic diseases due to family history . |
| 258 | Since the increase in awareness of balanced diet , people have been consuming less salt , sugar or high fat food , thus reducing the chances suffering from chronic diseases like hypertension , diabetes , or cardiovascular diseases . |
| 259 | Medical progress is measured in many ways . |
| 260 | Since doctors and nurses are not able to be with patients all the time , cameras and other surveillance devices will record their condition and alert hospital staff when it become worse . |
| 261 | Diseases that were thought to be incurable in the past are now curable . |
| 262 | For example like high blood pressure , there are many types of medicine that are available to treat these sicknesses . |
| 263 | This may prevent the future generation from inheriting the mutated genes or become carriers of the genetic disorders . |
| 264 | Thus , these enable hypertension and diabetis patients to work and live normally after taking medicine . |
| 265 | Vaccination prevented people from getting life-threatening diseases in the past , such as tuberculosis , which is no longer a big threat today . |
| 266 | scientists have invented methods , compounded medicine and also introduced a solution for the aging process . |
| 267 | Psychologists assert that some family members can consult genetic counsellors about their risk of contracting the disease , and hence overcome their fears ( Adams , 2003 ) . |
| 268 | Both of the two discoveries are milestones that people began to explore new areas to fight diseases . |
| 269 | " The medical alert system is another good example . |
| 270 | If they are positive , they can undertake a further diagnostic procedure to determine whether any physical symptom will developg . |
| 271 | Telemedicine was introduced to provide care for the patient from any location with the help of transferring electronic information through various technology applications and equipments such as the web camera . |
| 272 | More funds should be provided to increase more research and development in the pharmaceutical and medical sciences fields as well as importing more advance technologies . |
| 273 | This in turn , has generated demand for chronic disease management , geriatric services and other healthcare services . |
| 274 | Accelerating production of medical isotopes . |
| 275 | For example , since elderly people have some knowledge about nutrition , they will have the ability to choose healthy food like vegetables , beans , and fish instead of high-cholesterol food like butter , sugar , and meat . |
| 276 | In the case of the Da Vinci surgical system , it will not be able to function unless it detects the presence of the surgeon 's head in the viewer . |

| 248 | Technologies are also consistently refined to meet changing needs of customers . |
| 249 | In the past few centuries , humankind has taken giant leaps in technology . |
| 250 | There are plenty of functions now but the newer the better . |
| 251 | However , the application of flexibility and context is most crucial as there are indeed too many factors and variables for the system to account for ; thus , it is better that humans master the system instead of the other way around . |
| 252 | For the past few decades , the engineering field has developed drastically to a new level . |
| 253 | However , these inventions do not appear out of nothing ; it is the result of bringing together technologies and systems to solve our problems and to improve human needs . |
| 254 | Although there might be future technologies which will be better than the VHTR , this is not definite as yet . |
| 255 | The only challenge is whether or not they can grab the opportunity and do further development to make the ideas into useful technologies . |
| 256 | From my point of view , no matter what the sequence of innovation-development process , as long as there is a new invention , it was invented to benefit all mankind . |
| 257 | Hisense Achieves Significant Breakthrough for Core Technology Through Independent Innovation . |
| 258 | It is most likely that technology will continue to play an essential role in almost all our lives . |
| 259 | Regardless of whether the technology is developed via research or discovered serendipitously , it has contributed significantly to mankind . |
| 260 | Though this preliminary stage appears simple , actually it not only takes a lot of time and calls for patience , but also is the crucial fundamental stage of the solution . |
| 261 | That is the reason why we always have to improve it , to nurture it . |
| 262 | The country has just started her technological and industrial progress in the recent decades . |
| 263 | Therefore , no matter whether the creation is based on research or luck , as long as it benefits us in one way or the other , it is a great invention . |
| 264 | He believed in his invention and was determined to make it successful . |
| 265 | We have seen that the identification technology has progressed by leaps and bounds over the last few decades . |
| 266 | For example , stem cells recently have been an effective way to make the human dream come true . |
| 267 | Looking back at history , we can see how this important technology has been shaped by societal factors as well as technological factors . |
| 268 | Technology , no matter how it is developed , will be used to address problems that people face . |
| 269 | As time passes , our aging population grows and so does our technology . |
| 270 | In other words , RIM has defied all odds and survived due to its understanding of the needs of its users , the risks from its enemies , and other social factors that could shape the success of an innovation . |
| 271 | People are now living in a world filled with technology with every edge of the world powered by electricity . |
| 272 | " Perhaps RIM 's success continues to be a surprise because it appears to defy the prevailing model for which companies thrive and which companies fail in personal technology " , " but RIM is an example of how smart engineering and a keen understanding of customers can allow a small company to survive in the shadow of better-financed giants " ( Austen , 2004 ) . |
| 273 | No matter whether their existence is a design or an accident , as long as it benefits people , that 's what society wants to see . |
| 274 | In recent years , numerous hypotheses and inventions have been raised . |
| 275 | All these transformation have been brought about due to several factors . |
| 276 | Conventional R&D organizations are " bureaucracies , structured to provide stability and continuity to nurture innovation " ( Rogers , 2003 , p.144 ) . |

| 0 | Among all the reactors , supercritical water reactor ( SCWR ) is outstanding for its high thermal efficiency and also better reliability . |
|---|---|
| 1 | In conclusion , the sodium-cooled fast reactor is rated better in performance , capability to save cost , and safety . |
| 2 | In this aspect , the gas cooled fast reactor is attractive as it boasts higher efficiency in converting heat energy into electricity than conventional nuclear reactors . |
| 3 | The SCWR is considered one of the most promising future nuclear reactors because of its high thermal efficiency . |
| 4 | This characteristic is advantageous as operating a reactor under such conditions is simpler compared to the extreme conditions such as high temperature required for the other designs . |
| 5 | In the meantime , the supercritical water reactor also enjoys high thermal efficiency and a high energy conversion rate . |
| 6 | This new reactors operating at high temperatures are safer and more efficient |
| 7 | In the long run , one of the benefits of using molten salt reactors would be that it can meet energy demands while maintaining a clean environment . |
| 8 | The VHTR has great advantages in security over other reactors like the sodium cooled fast reactor . |
| 9 | Under these circumstance , scientists have come up with very high temperature reactor ( VHTR ) to make use of energy in a safer and more efficient way . |
| 10 | In fact , due to the higher temperature and pressure , the reactor can , however , be safer . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Supercritical water-cooled reactors ( SCWRS ) are the most advanced nuclear systems . They can generate high thermal efficiency . |
| 12 | Nevertheless , the new generation of reactor would make the process more efficient by using higher temperature , and there will be no waste to the outside world . |
| 13 | On the other hand , the sodium-cooled reactor strengthens its safety with long thermal response time and large margin to coolant boiling . |
| 14 | Among the generation IV reactors , the very-high-temperature reactor is most likely to be the best choice due to its safety , efficiency and environment friendliness . |
| 15 | This modification allows the reactor to run at higher temperatures , which means higher thermodynamic efficiency . |
| 16 | Therefore , the safety of the very high temperature reactor is improved a lot . |
| 17 | In conclusion , the super-critical water-cooled reactor ( SCWR ) has been proven to be cleaner , safer and better performing as compared with the generation III nuclear reactors . |
| 18 | It is true that the higher temperature enables the reactor to work more efficiently ; however , it also raises a huge inherent safety problem . |
| 19 | Finally , the performance of the very high temperature reactor will reduce the energy crisis in the future . |
| 20 | One such reactor is the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) which can produce large volumes of energy cleanly , reliably , safely and affordably . |
| 21 | And among all types of the Generation IV nuclear power technology , the very-high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) would be the best choice due to its safety , efficiency and environment friendliness . |
| 22 | To support the idea , Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor is the ideal method representing the essence of nuclear energy , secured safety and high efficiency . |
| 23 | Over all , the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor has advantages over The Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor with respect to thermal efficiency , security and cost . |
| 24 | Moreover , supercritical water is used in the reactor to increase the overall efficiency of the nuclear plant . |
| 25 | The major draw in continuing the research of molten salt reactor is its potential to make converting electricity from nuclear energy much safer , more environmentally friendly and more economically viable as compared to current reactors . |
| 26 | As a generation IV reactor , the molten salt reactor has outstanding safety advantage in both reactor and reprocessing , and it is profitable in a long run . |
| 27 | It is a good electricity generator and better than super-critical fast cool reactor . |
| 28 | Not only is it advantageous to sodium because it can be subjected to high temperature , it is also efficient in the transfer of thermal energy . |
| 29 | In addition , the high efficiency and environmental friendly characteristic of a supercritical-water-cooled reactor make it profitable , in the long run , to build . |
| 30 | As mentioned above , the new reactors operate at very high temperatures and have highly automatic cycle systems , so they are more efficient . |
| 31 | In conclusion , both Very high temperature and lead-cooled fast reactors have good performance and excellent safety systems , but VHTRs are on a higher end as compared to LFRs due to the greater system performance and system safety it provides . |
| 32 | Among them is the supercritical-water-cooled reactor ( SCWR ) which is considered a popular one because of its many obvious advantages . |
| 33 | The high thermal efficiency and environmental friendly characteristic of the supercritical-water-cooled reactor make it attractive to build the reactor . |
| 34 | As is mentioned above , the molten salt reactors are operated at high temperatures and low pressure , thus utilization of the fuel is significant , which in turn means that there will be less waste produced during the process . |
| 35 | Moreover , it has high efficiency and the reactor is safe to use . |
| 36 | Compared with the sodium-cooled fast reactor , the gas-cooled reactor has its obvious advantages of performance and cost . |
| 37 | As a result , it offers various heat processing applications for higher- efficiency electricity production , while preserving the desirable safety characteristics offered by modular high temperature gas-cooled reactors . |
| 38 | This means it is safer to use this kind of reactor . |
| 39 | Anyway , the research about the very high temperature reactor shows that the very high temperature reactor is beneficial to the society . |
| 40 | In addition , the VHTR tends to have higher working efficiency and an ultra-long lifetime which makes it more favourable than other generation IV reactors . |
| 41 | Hence , the excellent performance of the high temperature reactor will benefit human beings a lot . |
| 42 | The prospect of molten salt reactor is promising as its safety is enhanced within the reaction system as well as out of the system and it can profit in a long run . |
| 43 | Firstly , the supercritical water reactor is not only very highly thermal efficient but also quite economical . |
| 44 | Although there are numerous public concerns on the safety of nuclear reactors , VHTR 's promising potentials and benefits in the aspect of security , cost and performance far outweighs the concerns . |
| 45 | The continual research of the molten salt reactor will also result in the use of nuclear reactors being more economical compared to the current situation . |
| 46 | The super-critical water-cooled reactor is the best future reactor to generate sufficient energy to fulfill the energy needs of the public . |
| 47 | However , compared with VHTR , the sodium-cooled fast reactor ( SFR ) has more advantages and should be chosen as a main type of reactor in the future . |
| 48 | To sum up , comparing the Very High Temperature Reactor with the Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor , the VHTR really does better in security and long-term performance . |
| 49 | The combination with Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor system proves to be efficient in dissipating heat and preventing radioactivity leak . |
| 50 | One of these reactors is the gas-cooled fast reactor ( GFR ) which has more benefits in terms of cost , safety , and performance than the other five reactor concepts , particularly the very-high temperature reactor ( VHTR ) . |
| 51 | People are worried about the potential dangers brought by operating the nuclear reactor ; however , the design of VHTR has assured people the improvement in its original gas-cooled reactor 's safety features . |
| 52 | Among them , very-high- temperature reactor ( VHTR ) and sodium-cooled fast reactor ( SFR ) are considered the two most advanced and reliable systems . |
| 53 | However , sodium-cooled fast reactors are rather safe because they can react under relatively low temperature of 550 degrees in contrast with the above 700 degrees for other reactors ; it also reacts under low pressure . |
| 54 | This control makes the gas-cooled fast reactor as safe as the sodium-cooled fast reactor . |
| 55 | In addition , the VHTR is a highly efficient reactor . |
| 56 | Firstly , in terms of safety , the VHTR is said to be a relatively safe nuclear reactor because it includes a back-up emergency core cooling system . |
| 57 | The Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor works with good thermal efficiency under a lower temperature when compared to the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor . |
| 58 | Although this nuclear reactor concept faces issues of high requirement of materials , past record of cost overruns , and nuclear safety threat , it still prevails because of the promising research on needed materials , simplified design , and advanced design features in proliferation and safety . |
| 59 | Among the six concepts of nuclear reactors , the Very High Temperature Reactor , ( VHTR ) and the Gas Cooled Fast Reactor , ( GCFR ) are quite similar , but the Gas Cooled Fast Reactor has more benefits than VHTR in terms of performance , sustainability and cost . |
| 60 | In conclusion , Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor has a more consummate security system than Very-High-Temperature Reactor to insure its safety . |
| 61 | For the sodium-cooled fast reactor , it is a primary system that operates near atmospheric pressure and important features of the system include a long thermal response time which is a large margin to cool the boiling . |
| 62 | Despite the public 's growing concerns over nuclear safety , the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor can clear people 's doubt due to its safety features . |
| 63 | The high operating temperature and the highly automatic cycle system make the new generation reactors not only more inexpensive but also much safer . |
| 64 | Instead , the high temperatures can be used to increase efficiency of the reactor . |
| 65 | The supercritical water reactor can be safer compared to the light water reactor . |
| 66 | In particular , the Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) and the Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor ( SFR ) are outstanding in safety , cost and performance ; but the SFR has more benefits than the VHTR . |
| 67 | Thirdly , the Supercritical water reactor is more eco-friendly and safe . |
| 68 | The first reason is the safety of the super-critical water-cooled reactor ( SCWR ) . |
| 69 | I personally support the molten salt reactor concept for further research and development based on the following factors : safe operation of the plant , global security and cost efficiency . |
| 70 | Therefore , sodium-cooled fast reactors are very safe and also safer than the other reactors in the fourth generation . |
| 71 | Therefore , the gas-cooled fast reactor is better than the sodium-cooled fast reactor in terms of cost . |
| 72 | There are obvious problems for power : accidents , nuclear waste , high expenditure of research and building , and the threat of nuclear weapons . But Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactors ( Generation IV ) raise people 's hopes for the new process of the nuclear industry and the public should be justified in extending activities for the research into Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactors ( SCWRs ) because of its efficiency , cleanness and developed technology . |
| 73 | Therefore , the gas-cooled fast reactor is better than the sodium-cooled fast reactor . |
| 74 | An innovative concept of a sodium-cooled reactor to pursue high economic competitiveness . |
| 75 | Compare this to SWCR ; in a word , sodium-cooled fast reactors do well in performance . |
| 76 | To address the safety concerns of the public , the design gas cooled fast reactor includes many safeguard systems . |
| 77 | To sum up , I firmly reckon that the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor is the most suitable nuclear reactor concept for further research and development , despite the issues of high requirement of materials , the potential cost overruns , and the threat of nuclear safety and nuclear proliferation , because the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor 's advantages of promising research on advanced materials , simplified designed factors , safety design features and resistance to nuclear proliferation overweigh the problems it faces today . |
| 78 | The supercritical water is also used in different areas for a long time , so that the supercritical water reactor can be a practical innovation and it is very safe . |
| 79 | In conclusion , even though the sodium-cooled fast reactor is a good type of generation IV reactor , the gas-cooled fast reactor is a much better one . |
| 80 | In this essay , I will discuss the benefits of the molten salt reactor ( MSR ) , which is one of the six Generation IV concepts , and show that it is superior to the very high temperature reactor ( VHTR ) in terms of safety , performance and cost . |
| 81 | Furthermore , SFR has a relatively large thermal inertia and a large margin to coolant boiling which ensure the safety of the use of sodium . |
| 82 | Although the public is very concerned about the safe operation of nuclear reactors , the technological breakthrough and theory innovation shows that Very-High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) will be built in the future . |
| 83 | This medium range of temperature increases the functional capacity of the reactor as compared to those which only operate at a fixed temperature . |
| 84 | Obviously it is more expensive to build a nuclear plant , but , after the start-up , the operating cost is cheaper because of high-efficiency , lower-cost high-temperature reactor for electricity and hydrogen production . |
| 85 | But in my opinion , the supercritical water reactor is actually simpler , safer and has less nuclear waste compared to the generation III reactor which we widely use nowadays . |
| 86 | Although nuclear energy is said to be one of the most efficient means of producing electricity , public concern towards their safety has brought down the number of new reactors being constructed in many countries . |
| 87 | In conclusion , Gas-cooled Fast Reactor is better than Supercritical Water-cooled Reactor , in the areas of efficiency , expend and security . |
| 88 | The Molten Salt reactor is a lot safer in performance and operation than the Very High Temperature Reactor |
| 89 | Thus , the VTHR is safe to use even though it requires high temperatures to operate . |
| 90 | The performance of sodium-cooled fast reactor seems so perfect ; however , compared with the performance of the gas-cooled fast reactor , that of sodium-cooled fast reactor is not perfect anymore . |
| 91 | This makes the reactor stable enough to sustain high temperature . |
| 92 | This is extremely efficient as compared to the conventional thermal power station methods . |
| 93 | Indeed , temperature is an indicator of how efficient the reactor is . |
| 94 | The supercritical-water-cooled reactors run at temperatures which are higher than the normal nuclear reactors which means that more efficient conversion of heat to electricity ( Butler,2004 ) . |
| 95 | Nuclear power plants , which produce minimum global warming emissions when they operate , give a relatively high thermal efficiency . |
| 96 | As such , even though mankind are in need of much more energy , the rate of further development and research on the generation IV nuclear reactor , such as the Sodium-cooled fast reactor , still depends heavily on factors such as cost efficiency , safety issues , and environmental friendliness . |
| 97 | To conclude , although some technical issues of the Super Critical Water reactor are still being researched , I reckon that the SCWR would be the most promising reactor against other generation IV ones , in terms of performance , cost , feasibility , and impact on the environment . |
| 98 | Compared to the old generation reactors which use light water as coolant , the molten salt cooled reactor operates at low pressure which prevents explosion caused by steam . |
| 99 | What 's more , many scientists have studied the operation security of VHTR , like He on the Third International Topical Meeting on High Temperature Reactor Technology in South Africa and put forward some constructive suggestions to improve the security condition of high temperature reactors . |
| 100 | Obviously , the most significant part of the safety features of the sodium- cooled fast reactor is the control action . |
| 101 | The turbines have also excellent thermodynamic efficiency due to the relatively high temperature it functions at . |
| 102 | In fact , despite the fact that reprocessing and research cost too much money , the molten salt reactor is profitable in a long term and it is economical compared to other reactors . |
| 103 | The total cost of building a VHTR is about US $ 670 M. It is much lower than the cost of building a Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactor , the next more expensive reactor , which is about US $ 870 M. Moreover , due to its high operating temperature ( 1000oC ) , the VHTR can operate with a high efficiency to produce electricity . |
| 104 | Researches done by the experts in the United State showed that the security of the very high temperature would be improved quite a lot . |
| 105 | Even though the safety of sodium-cooled fast reactor may be better than that of the gas-cooled fast reactor , it can not change the fact that the gas-cooled fast reactor is better than the sodium-cooled fast reactor at the present stage , because there is still no way to make the nuclear power totally safe now . |
| 106 | Among the six reactors , the Very-high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) stands out and may probably be the first choice as future fuel although some people may worry about its safety and cost . |
| 107 | The Very High Temperature Reactor is considerably cheap compared to other reactors . |
| 108 | This is much safer compared to Sodium-Cooled reactor , since Sodium is explosive in contact with air or water . |
| 109 | Furthermore , it is also efficient because it is operating at a very high temperature . |
| 110 | However , the Supercritical water-cooled reactor is one of the safest reactors compared to current generation II and III reactors . |
| 111 | Nevertheless , the advantage of VHTR can not be confined to the aspect of efficiency , the high level of safety is another huge advantage over other reactors . |
| 112 | In the lighter water reactor , the light water will boiling in the core vessel so that it produce a lot steam as bubbles in the light water , so that the light water reactor needs a lot of equipment to control these bubbles such as steam generators , steam separators and dryers ( Idaho National Laboratory , 2007 ) . |
| 113 | 1 ) Sodium-cooled reactor focuses its safety in its primary system and intermediate system which operate near atmospheric pressure . |
| 114 | However , nuclear power as well as the new Molten Salt Reactor system , in fact , is safer and useful . |
| 115 | In the molten salt reactor , a better or at least the same system will be used to ensure the safety of the reactor . |
| 116 | Although nuclear energy was famous for its cleanness and abundance , the public was anxious about its safety . |
| 117 | On the other hand , with the concern of the natural resources shortage , more and more people are in favour of the nuclear energy because it kindles the hope of solving energy crisis . |
| 118 | ( M.J. Lineberry & T.R. Allen , 2002 ) The Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor , not only includes a basic self safety control functions but also has many safety approaches applied to the system to make it work safely under high temperature with additional safety devices being added to the equipment . |
| 119 | Safety is highly regarded as one of the most important reasons in the decision of the final nuclear reactor concept . |
| 120 | Although the SCWR has many benefits , two main concerns about the cost and safety limit the population of this reactor . |
| 121 | Simultaneously it retains the safety properties provided by high-temperature gas-cooled reactors . |
| 122 | It is true that these two safety features provide SFR operating safety , but it is still dangerous when core exposures or coolant does not work . |
| 123 | Many people believe that the sodium-cooled fast reactor is the best of them . |
| 124 | ( Very High Temperature Reactor , n.d ) Though people may still be worried that the temperature control sensor may fail , all these safety features can be enhanced by having a back up sensor in the event of breakdown . |
| 125 | SFR is also operating at a pressure around atmospheric level so it is safer because the high pressure will increase not only the stress on the walls of the plant but also the damage if an explosion happens . |
| 126 | Graphite also has high heat capacity and thermal inertia , thus allowing it to withstand high temperatures . |
| 127 | Besides that , its efficiency is much higher under its rated working temperature . |
| 128 | Among the concepts , the most beneficial reactor seems to be the Molten Salt Reactor ( MSR ) compared to the Very-High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) and other 4 . |
| 129 | The SFR has a passive cooling system ; this is because the thermal difference between the coolant boiling temperature and the operational temperature is quite large . |
| 130 | Although there is much opposition to the idea of building nuclear reactors in developing countries , there is some evidence that building nuclear reactors , such as the Generation IV reactors , yields positive outcomes for these countries . |
| 131 | Safety is a major point , and it is important for the Generation 4 reactors to prove its safety . |
| 132 | Because of the above , water is the most suitable material to be the coolant of the generation IV reactors , so supercritical- water-cooled reactor is largely superior to the other five kinds in terms of coolant . |
| 133 | As such , the consistent performance of the SCWR will be a crucial factor that allows it to stand out among the other Gen-IV reactors . |
| 134 | ( " Nuclear Industry 's Safety , Operating Performance Remained Top-Notch in '08 , WANO Indicators Show " ) Since the nuclear plants are now of higher safety standards and with agencies to regularly check on the status of the plants , the further funding of nuclear plants should be supported so that this safe and reliable source of energy can be made available to everyone . |
| 135 | Therefore , the research and development of sodium cooled fast reactor is necessary and overwhelming . |
| 136 | The materials used in this reactor must be capable to withstand various supercritical water conditions that range from the low temperature inlet at 280 ° C to the outlet at above 500 ° C , and from a compressed liquid to a fluid nearly an order of magnitude less dense than ordinary water as the supercritical water traverses the core from bottom to top . |
| 137 | This is because molten salt reactor has different safety approaches which can prevent the meltdown . |
| 138 | Safety features are one of the main considerations when designing a nuclear reactor . |
| 139 | Secondly , it is appreciated that Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor has some safety features . |
| 140 | Besides that , nuclear power plants are safer than coal mines due to the reason that designers and engineers use the high-tech in building nuclear power plant and there are strict rules of operation . |
| 141 | In contrast , nuclear power reactors are expensive to build but relatively cheap to operate . |
| 142 | It also has high heat capacity and structural stability . |
| 143 | Because of the very high temperature used in the reactions , hotspots are prevented from forming within the core because the graphite core of VHTRs has very high thermal conductivity . |
| 144 | Nevertheless , at present , there is a safe nuclear reactor which is called sodium-cooled fast reactor . |
| 145 | Based on the goals for Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems , Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) is expected to be a better choice than other five reactors . |
| 146 | However , in terms of the overall development cost , the Very High temperature reactor is still much cheaper than the Molten Salt reactor . |
| 147 | Through research , a molten salt reference plant can produce power up to 1000MWe which is very efficient . |
| 148 | The thermal efficiency is the most important element of VHTR compare to other technologies . |
| 149 | Although the supercritical water reactor is still under research , it has already shown a lot of advantages . |
| 150 | However , to compare the two fast reactors specifically , it is better to choose Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor as the new reactor to meet the generation IV nuclear plan instead of Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactor . |
| 151 | The core of VHTR is made of graphite , which provides further stability due to its high heat capacity and stability at a very high temperature . |
| 152 | People still worry about the radioactivity a reactor sends out so they think the sodium cooled reactor is safer . |
| 153 | Furthermore , the supercritical-water-cooled reactor is just an improvement of the conventional water reactor , making it relatively cheap to build . |
| 154 | Design of the reactor was such that even when the rate of cooling of the reactor was insufficient to compensate the increase in temperature , it will still be operational . |
| 155 | Besides , the graphite , used as the moderator , has large thermal inertia , a high heat capacity and a stable structure even at high temperatures . |
| 156 | As mentioned in the last paragraph , the material that will be used to build the reactor can withstand the high temperature . |
| 157 | But in the Generation IV reactors safety is as important an issue as implementation of new technologies . |
| 158 | However , VHTR has a reactor core made of graphite , which possesses high stability even in high temperatures . |
| 159 | Design challenges for sodium cooled fast reactors . |
| 160 | Examining the public 's concerns with respect to the Sodium-Cooled fast reactor will give us a useful insight on the potential of nuclear power . |
| 161 | Although some have chosen lead-cooled fast reactor ( LFR ) over very-high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) because of the various benefits LFR has over VHTR , there is some evidence that VHTR is much better than LFR . |
| 162 | Thus , the overall benefit of the sodium reactor is too little compared to the Very High Temperature Reactor . |
| 163 | In the first place , Molten salt reactors are much safer due to the properties of the chosen salt mixture and . |
| 164 | Besides that , the nuclear reactor design strategy of generation IV reactors for preventing accidents and mitigating their potential effects is defense in depth ( Cohen , n.d ) . |
| 165 | It seems a perfect solution to the bad situation nowadays , however , the use of nuclear energy becomes a controversial issue which causes fierce discussion among not only scientists , but also publics . |
| 166 | While nuclear opponents highlight safety , cost and performance issues , the Very High Temperature ( VHT ) Reactor is a Generation IV reactor concept which should be researched and developed further . |
| 167 | Not only does it produce more electricity , but the high temperature generated is actually not useless . |
| 168 | For the SFR system , safety measures consist of a long thermal response time , a huge margin to coolant boiling and a main mechanism that works near atmospheric pressure . |
| 169 | In this report the concepts of very-high-temperature-reactor ( VHTR ) are attention-getting because the new features of VHTR will greatly improve nuclear energy 's popularity , thus forcefully rejecting opponents ' conservative views . |
| 170 | With considerable research background , Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors , or SFR , are able to ease public worry over these safety issues as mentioned before . |
| 171 | Also , as it is operating at higher temperature , it produces more electricity compared to the rest . |
| 172 | When the concept of the super-critical-water-cooled reactors is introduced , it will be much cheaper to build compared to the other conventional ones . |
| 173 | Reactor Coolant technology cost safety breeding Gas-cooled fast good high Not very safe Ok Lead-cooled fast Not good high Relatively safe Ok Molten salt good Not very high safe Ok Sodium-cooled fast excellent high Not very safe Good Supercritical water cooled good Not very high safe Breeding ratio < 1 Very high Temperature good Quite high Not very safe Breeding ratio < 1 The table includes four most important factors . |
| 174 | The supercritical water reactor is working at much higher temperature ( 500 º C ) and pressure than the generation III reactor ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 175 | Furthermore , sodium-cooled reactor benefits from the research which was done earlier . |
| 176 | This essay will focus on sodium-cooled fast reactors ( SFR ) in comparison with supercritical-water-cooled reactors ( SWCR ) based on three aspects : performance , cost , and safety , and show that the SFR is a better concept than the SWCR . |
| 177 | The current generation of nuclear reactors look very promising , though not all of them seem to address the problems of safety , cost and performance . |
| 178 | Thus , the sodium-cooled fast reactor is a good choice but still a little inferior to the supercritical-water-cooled reactor . |
| 179 | By considering the cost , efficiency and safety factors , we can judge that a very high temperature is the better choice in theong run . |
| 180 | However , the VHTR has a temperature monitoring system that constantly monitors the temperature of the core to prevent any meltdowns from occurring , and it has a proper back up system that continues producing energy during a malfunction . |
| 181 | In this essay , I will compare two outstanding generation IV models : the very-high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) and the sodium-cooled fast reactor ( SFR ) , and argue that the VHTR is safer , more economical and more proliferation-resistant than SFR . |
| 182 | They also point out that the operating temperature of current generation generators are high . |
| 183 | However , VHTR is very efficient compared with the conventional light-water reactor , which can only burn up 5 % of the initial amount ( n.f . |
| 184 | Some opponents argue that even though there is no radioactive waste , the reactor itself is a big safety problem ; the reactor may explode and cause disasters . |
| 185 | Energy is needed to run the cooling machine to maintain the temperature at the safe level . |
| 186 | In general , supercritical-water-cooled reactors exceed other five kinds of generation IV nuclear reactors on coolant to a large degree and could be developed in about 5 to 10 years which is relatively short and acceptable . |
| 187 | The slow but fatal effects of radiation have made radiation leaks from nuclear reactors a major safety concern among the public . |
| 188 | Sodium is four times more effective as a cooling agent than LFR , because of its better thermal hydraulic properties . |
| 189 | The next key agenda on the minds of the public is nonetheless the safety considerations and implications that these nuclear reactors can have . |
| 190 | For example , the core of the reactor will be able to withstand temperatures way above the normal operating temperatures . |
| 191 | Several billion dollars is needed to get a nuclear reactor going and the sodium-cooled fast reactors are even more expensive than the other ones . |
| 192 | The VHTR is capable of dissipating heat even under severe accident conditions and its graphite structure is able to withstand high temperatures to prevent itself from self-sustained combustion . |
| 193 | However , the safety and the efficiency of the new generation power plants raise many opposing public concerns . |
| 194 | It has high structural stability despite being heated up to high temperatures . |
| 195 | Moreover , by now the research on reducing the cost of this reactor has received significant achievement and the research is still undergoing . |
| 196 | Recent research and development with in depth studies for safety shows that , , the Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor system has through experiment demonstrated its security aspect . |
| 197 | Very High Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) emerges from the six as one of the most promising and is currently being heavily researched on . But is it worth the funds and efforts when safety concerns are still present and worse , unaddressed ? |
| 198 | " The fundamental safety objective is to protect people and the environment from harmful effects of ionizing radiation " ( Fundamental Safety Principles , 2006 ) . |
| 199 | SFR has higher boiling point , meaning that it requires longer thermal response time , thus it will be a large margin to coolant boiling that minimize the probability of accidents happening at boiling phase . |
| 200 | First of all , the safety factor of the nuclear reactors has been highlighted over the past decades by the nuclear-averse public . |
| 201 | However , in terms of performance , the SCWR can match the thermal efficiency of the other reactors ( Idano National Library , 2009 ) . |
| 202 | However , despite the catastrophic events caused by violating the safety regulations , nuclear plants are actually much safer compared with other coal-fired plants in both the senses of occupational fatalities and industrial accidents . |
| 203 | From the evidence I have collected , I have come to the conclusion that the sodium-cooled reactor is a better choice than the lead-cooled reactor as it outperforms the latter in three aspects , which are safety , performance and cost . |
| 204 | Next , the society is concerned with the safety and security aspect of Generation IV reactors . |
| 205 | One of the reasons for development in Generation 4 nuclear reactor plants is security reason . |
| 206 | In comparison with current nuclear plant technology , Generation IV nuclear technology brings us more benefits , according to the researchers . |
| 207 | ( Jaworowski , 2004 ) However , as compared to coal plant accidents , SCWR is still a superior choice due to its sophisticated safety systems and that is why the governments should have development funding for it to achieve zero nuclear disaster someday in the future . |
| 208 | Secondly , nuclear energy has incomparable working efficiency with other energy resources . |
| 209 | Thus , the core has large thermal inertia which means it is not easily corroded even in high temperatures . |
| 210 | Having seen the value of the sodium-cooled fast reactors , many countries are investing in the sodium-cooled fast reactors . |
| 211 | However , as the sodium-cooled fast reactor was developed later than the other kinds of reactors , especially later than the gas-cooled fast reactor , the cost of research and investigation of the sodium-cooled fast reactor is so huge . |
| 212 | So far , although there have been several concerns raised on these systems , such as the understanding of their reliability , limited opportunity to manage events , etc. , they are reliable , economical and safe to operate . |
| 213 | Because of the effect of graphite , it manages to maintain a high heat capacity and stability at the same time even at extremely high temperatures . |
| 214 | In spite of them claiming that nuclear energy is unsafe , costly and of low output , there is research and data to show otherwise with Generation IV reactors . |
| 215 | Thus , the efficiency rate is still very comparable to other reactors of high efficiency rate . |
| 216 | Even though the doubts and concerns following also deserve much attention from the scientists and engineers , application of passive safety systems is definitely reliable and economical . |
| 217 | According to Teri Ehresman , the VHTR is able to retain " the desirable safety characteristics offered by modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactors " ( Ehresman , 2009 ) . |
| 218 | However , the performance of the nuclear reactor is dependent on the temperature of the reactor core . |
| 219 | In that state , the reactor vessel radiates heat , but the vessel and fuel spheres remain intact and undamaged " . |
| 220 | Gas-fired power plants are very cheap and quick to build , but very expensive to operate due to the cost of their fuel . |
| 221 | In short , the Molten Salt Reactor system is safe to operate and friendly to the environment . |
| 222 | For the supercritical-water-cooled reactors , very high pressure is needed to prevent the water coolant from boiling at temperatures up to five hundred degree Celsius ( Butler,2004 ) . |
| 223 | While amazed by the enormous energy generated by the tiny mass , people are also concerned about the negative perspectives of nuclear power . |
| 224 | The core is composed of non-combustible nuclear grade graphite which has a very stable structure even at high temperatures and high heat capacity . |
| 225 | Scientists can use a certain way to significantly increase the thermal property . |
| 226 | However research is needed to prove the capability of sodium at high temperatures , as it has a low boiling point , which will result in a complex design . |
| 227 | When machinery failure occurs and reactor temperature increase to extremely high levels , the reactor does not undergo a meltdown or explode ; instead , temperature just stays at the high level until the heat can be dissipated or cooled by coolant liquids . |
| 228 | In addition , INL researchers also believe that nuclear energy will be important in maintaining the nation 's electricity supply as ( Svoboda , 2009 ) . |
| 229 | Finally , while it 's true to say that reprocessing nuclear waste is still controversial , the general characteristics of the SCWR make it an attractive candidate for addressing Generation IV safety goals against terrorism . |
| 230 | On the other hand , scientists support Molten Salt Reactor ( MSR ) because both its coolant and fuel can use same liquid salts to save materials . |
| 231 | To develop the fourth generation of nuclear plants aims to ensure the security of the application of nuclear energy , especially to protect nuclear plants from terrorism and incorrect operations which can lead to very serious results . |
| 232 | One of the main safety principles for Generation IV reactors is the concept of defence in depth . |
| 233 | The supercritical water ( 510-550 degree C ) is used to protect the water from boiling at temperature up to 500 degree C which directly drives turbine , without any secondary steam system . |
| 234 | In addition , these sensors are also highly sensitive to human body temperature , therefore resulting in a highly accurate detection . |
| 235 | In addition , engineers and researchers are not the only ones who are responsible for the security of the nuclear reactors . |
| 236 | The Sodium-cooled Reactor boasts a passive cooling system with a large thermal inertia . |
| 237 | To sum it all up , the many concerns the public has on the past generations of nuclear reactors that lead to catastrophic accidents are addressed in VHTR . |
| 238 | Insulating foam is used for covering the External Tank in order to keep a relatively high temperature . |
| 239 | This shows great advantage over the conventional reactors which possess burn-up levels of around 5 % . |
| 240 | ( Butler , 2004 ) The supercritical-water-cooled reactor has more advantages than the other five . |
| 241 | This feature ensures that the temperature in a VHTR core can never be high enough to trigger a meltdown . |
| 242 | Having being questioned and opposed for a long period , the nuclear power , with the rise in advanced generation IV concepts , once again finds its place to help cope with global energy shortage and many environmental issues . |
| 243 | Therefore , we are concentrating on searching for new energy source which can probably replace current fossil fuels .Although with many advantages like high efficiency , no carbon emission and so on , nuclear energy still meets with very strong public opposition , mainly due to memories of two horrible catastrophes in the past : Three Miles Island and Chernobyl . |
| 244 | Opponents claim that the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor is supposed to operate at superior thermodynamic condition , which refers to the operating pressure as high as 25MPa and the maximum temperature of more than 500 ° C . |
| 245 | The core is composed of prismatic graphite , and has high heat capacity and structural stablility at high temperature and pressure . |
| 246 | When people compare the two types of reactors , they tend to focus on the temperature at which reactors operates . |
| 247 | " Nuclear Industry 's Safety , Operating Performance Remained Top-Notch in '08 , WANO Indicators Show . |
| 248 | The form of the energy generation is the most efficient . |
| 249 | In summary , passive safety concept rely more on forces of nature , and this approach increases the reliability and predictability of how the plants behave under various circumstances . |
| 250 | Compared to the SFR , it has a high pressure drop and thus its temperature would increase dangerously beyond its boiling point . |
| 251 | This is because the temperature of the reactor core is affected by external factors such as weather . |
| 252 | It includes a long thermal response time which is a large margin to cool boiling . |
| 253 | Climate concerns giving boost to nuclear energy , but daunting challenges remain despite Chu support . |
| 254 | Hence , the very high temperature will prove to be competitive in pricing . |
| 255 | In addition , the material used to build the reactor is graphite which has a high melting point . |
| 256 | This will cause the temperature and the pressure of the coolant to increase . |
| 257 | Therefore , when there is high temperature the pressure in the system will also increase . |
| 258 | Compared with current Light-Water-cooled Reactors , the Supercritical-Water-cooled Reactor raises the operating temperature in outlet coolant from 300 ° C to 500 ° C . |
| 259 | Another additional function is the implementation of a temperature sensor . |
| 260 | Nevertheless , we can not deny the truth that scientists and engineers have actually thought about the safety precautions of nuclear energy system . |
| 261 | There is a large margin between the operational temperature and the coolant boiling temperature . |

| 0 | The limitation in public spending on the elderly may cause family members and individuals to shoulder a bigger responsibility in taking care of the elderly . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Some people claimclaim that it is everyone 's responsibility to plan financially for old-age to reduce dependency on children However , for those who are physically disabled and suffering from illnesses , they do not have the ability to work and look after themselves . |
| 2 | Imagine a situation in which without sufficient support from the government , the aged become a burden to their families. . |
| 3 | Without the government to shoulder part of the burden , most immediate families of the elderly will find it financially taxing on their part . |
| 4 | Eventually , this does not only burden the aged with insufficient funds to support their medical expenditures but it also strains the relationship with their children as they need to provide more monetary contributions to their parents . |
| 5 | The repercussions following the aging population would be social and economic concerns as the younger generations would have to struggle to support their families . |
| 6 | Since there are many people suffering to support their families , it is just harder for them to save for later years . |
| 7 | However , people might argue that the aged have their children to depend on , but this dependence is straining on family ties as average health care costs rise . |
| 8 | Last of all , some families may not be able to support their elderly parents due to their low income . |
| 9 | However , the younger generation have heavy financial burdens to take care of their own families and sometimes are unable to support their parents . |
| 10 | A neglected welfare system for the aging causes social instability to the country . For instance , citizens would feel cash-strapped with the rising healthcare costs and there would be myriad cases reporting about elderly poverty or abandonment . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Nevertheless , there are some low income families who face high costs of living and can not support both their children and elderly parents . |
| 12 | In cases where the elderly do not have any children or do not have any savings left , money is also needed to cater for their daily expenses , housing and medical expenses . |
| 13 | If large expenditures were to be dedicated to helping the elderly , the children may rely too heavily on the government to support their aged family members instead of both parties playing a part in sharing the burden of supporting them . |
| 14 | If funding for the aged is limited , this will result in children bearing the responsibilities to look after their own parents . |
| 15 | There may be opposing views which claims that the grown children do not have much money to support the elderly as they have their own families to support . |
| 16 | This is because some children may already have problems supporting themselves or even a new family which they started , so they may want to support their parents but are practically unable to do so . |
| 17 | In the end , it is still very taxing on the working population , who now not only have to support themselves and their children , but also their parents as well . |
| 18 | Moreover , even though married elderly have children , the high cost of living is also putting a challenge on the children 's finances , which makes it hard for them to provide for their parents . |
| 19 | This problem becomes worse if the elderly do not have any children or children who choose to neglect their responsibilities to support their elder 's healthcare finances . |
| 20 | Some of the children feel that they are having financial problems and they are not capable of taking care of their parents ' expenses . |
| 21 | Many may argue that the elderly are also equally , if not , more in need of the funds , especially since they were once economically . It is only right that their welfare is being taken care of now that they have lost the ability to take care of themselves . |
| 22 | In other words , most elderly people are rather dependent on their children to support them , particularly those who suffer from chronic illnesses . |
| 23 | On the other hand , cutting of elderly welfare finances may increase the financial burden of the family members . |
| 24 | The elderly are being forced to get help from the government as their children are not willing to support them . |
| 25 | As most elderly stay alone these days and are not supported by their families , this scheme would be useful for them especially when they do not have stable financial security . |
| 26 | Many may think that with the obligation to support their parents , the family members will bear a heavier burden . |
| 27 | As prices are rising acutely , family members will face difficulties to support their elder parents . |
| 28 | If the elderly do not have enough savings , they may depend on the government or their children . |
| 29 | However , by doing so , it will increase the dependency of the young adults on the government to help support their parents . |
| 30 | Any healthcare cost will become a burden to the elderly as well as to their family members . |
| 31 | Elderly people people who are financially strapped and/or have no spouse or intermediate family members to take care of them , should be taken care of by the government . |
| 32 | If such scenarios are already occurring to those elderly who have family , the situation would be worse for old folks who have no one to turn to except for the government . |
| 33 | The children of these aged folk do not earn enough to support their parents . |
| 34 | By cutting expenditure on welfare programs for the elderly , individuals and families are responsible for a larger share of the cost incurred by the elderly. . |
| 35 | Limiting the public spending on the aged may impose a financial burden on the future generations simultaneously as the main resource for financial support of elderly is family . |
| 36 | Secondly , while the government has emphasized the concept of filial obligations in children , the underlying truth is that children are going through a hard time trying to provide for their elderly parents sufficiently throughout their retirement years . |
| 37 | Elderly parents may end up looking after such working adults instead , imposing a heavier burden onto the elderly and government . |
| 38 | However , the withdrawal of governmental support in the health care for the aged would shift the responsibilities of looking after the elderly to the families of these aged and burden the development of the country in the long run . |
| 39 | As discussed earlier , rising healthcare costs coupled with longer living parents puts pressure on cash-strapped children to provide for their elderly parents . |
| 40 | Besides that , not all children have the ability to support their parents as they might be facing financial problems and hence are unable to take good care of them . |
| 41 | Besides that , countries face difficulties in supporting a growing number of the aged as there are many vulnerable aged who live alone and need assistance from governments . |
| 42 | Nevertheless , if we limit the public spending on the elderly , the first one to suffer is the younger generation who have to take care of their parents . |
| 43 | If elderly people failed to accumulate enough funds before retirement , they have to rely a lot on their children . |
| 44 | This will make the future generations to have a more stressful life because they can not effort to support their parents . |
| 45 | Firstly , the main problem of the aging population is that the children do not want to take care of their parents when they are old , because they think that parents are troubles for them , since they are old and unable to contribute . |
| 46 | This shows that in the course of taking care of their parents , the working adults do not take care of their own health , and what makes it worse is that they are financially in need , as evidenced by their incapability to settle their own healthcare bills . |
| 47 | In addition , limiting public spending on the aged would mean that individuals have to provide the cost for their own old age dependency . |
| 48 | In the context of the elderly , the reason why the government has to spend a lot of money on them is due to the fact that children nowadays are abandoning their parents either in hospitals or old folk homes . |
| 49 | Moreover , at present , there are still many people who can not take care of their parents and have to leave them in old folks ' homes because they have their own family and they are still struggling to get by in this increasingly complex world . |
| 50 | Those elderly who are unfortunate or those who have no children may face problems as they would have no one to take care of them and would be worse off without any help from the government . |
| 51 | Another reason for limiting public spending on the aged is that the children of the elderly should pay for their parents ' healthcare expenses . |
| 52 | Their family has to bear larger financial responsibility to take care of the elderly . |
| 53 | They will have to spend more money for their parents while sometimes they may not even be able to fulfil their own needs . |
| 54 | The small labour force has to carry the burden of supporting the aged in the country and with increasing costs for goods and services , income inequality may be resulted . |
| 55 | With more babies born , it could mean more people looking after their parents in the future , which would in turn cut down funds needed for the elderly . |
| 56 | Moreover , the rising cost of healthcare adds further strains to the limited income of the younger generation , which often lead to children being unable to fend for their parents and thus abandoning them . |
| 57 | Furthermore , if either of their parents contract a long term disease which requires a significant amount of care , both adults will be in a dilemma about whether to look after their parents or to carry on with their job so as to ease the financial burden that is added because of the medical bills . |
| 58 | With huge families facing financial crises , the government will have to stand in to provide for the elderly in need . |
| 59 | Some of the adverse effects includes , elderly people especially those who are childless , spouseless and elderly people who does not have huge amount of savings to face difficulties to fund their own healthcare or living expenses . |
| 60 | Too little provision may represent an increase in the social costs for the families of the aged and more difficult lives for the communities . |
| 61 | Thus it will be more essential for the government to emphasize the responsibility that adult children should bear to support the family rather than directly give financial support to the aged , which will in turn lay more tax burdens on the working population . |
| 62 | If the public spending on the aged is limited , the burden on the children or younger generation will be much heavier since they will have to bear with more expenses incurred by their parents . |
| 63 | The aging process is exacerbated when children abandon their parents as they feel that the old ones are a burden to them . |
| 64 | Old homeless people , for example , will have to depend on the Government for their livelihood . |
| 65 | When government spending on the aged is cut down , it leaves the individuals and their families to shoulder a larger portion of the costs involved . |
| 66 | The country 's economy will also suffer as a small number of young working population will have to support a bigger umbrella of elder generation . |
| 67 | If public spending on the aged is limited , there will be social costs and repercussions on families and local communities . |
| 68 | In addition , the young workforce is doubly worse off through the pre-determined obligation to support the old generations using their own earnings . |
| 69 | In this harsh situation , the elderly parents who have no income and no savings become a big financial strain . |
| 70 | If the government were to limit spending on them , they will face many potential problems such as unemployment or retrenchment , which will have a spillover effect on their children supporting them financially . |
| 71 | Elderly people always tend to depend a lot on their children and it results in a strain in family relationship . |
| 72 | On top of that , there are elderly who have no children , so if their financial conditions are unstable , they should be given the necessary funds to make ends meet . |
| 73 | Prolonging the life of the victim can be financially draining on the family , and cause financial and social tension within the family . |
| 74 | There are still many families who need the government 's aid in order to meet their needs . |
| 75 | Other than paying taxes , the working population still needs to pay for their personal and family expenses . |
| 76 | Some of the elderly may not have saved enough to last them till death or their children are not willing to take care of them . |
| 77 | The old notion of the elderly helplessly dependent on their children or social workers for their everyday needs is , thus , fast becoming dated . |
| 78 | This is because in actual fact , the burden is shared by the families of the elderly as well as the government . |
| 79 | Families will face various other problems , such as education , housing and transportation due to the high expenditures of taking care of the elderly . |
| 80 | However , there are still cases whereby children refuse to support their parents though they are capable of doing so . |
| 81 | Not only putting adverse impacts on other members in their families , the elderly can cause many difficulties to societies'developments in general . |
| 82 | The rising health care costs make it even tough for the child to cope with it and some are not willing to support their parents . |
| 83 | So , when the children have to bear the medical expenses and the cost of everyday lives of their parents , they tend to live beyond their income . |
| 84 | Even though family members are responsible for taking care of their elderly , many assume that the government would be responsible for it because of its vast resources . . |
| 85 | They think that this will become a financial burden for the young generation and working adults , who will be contributing to the public spending . |
| 86 | Often , the issue is that the elderly are neglected by their adult children and left to survive on their own . |
| 87 | Many elderly are neglected by their children and have become homeless . |
| 88 | It may then cause them to fail to take good care of their elderly parents and neglect their needs . |
| 89 | Some have been abandoned by their families while others can not afford a house because of their financial difficulties . |
| 90 | Finally , the financial impact of the disease on the carrier and his relatives must also be considered in the ethical reasoning of this argument as the financial aspects of a disease may be far reaching , especially for families in the low income group . |
| 91 | However , there are certain groups of elderly who are single , child-less , not on good terms with their children or who still need to support their 'parasitic ' adult children . |
| 92 | The reason for this is because bringing up children these days is expensive , which will result in a burden for parents . |
| 93 | Collectively , these findings suggest that the elderly must rely on others for financial and social support . |
| 94 | The reason is that the standard of living is rising and adult children find it difficult to provide for their parents , especially those stricken with illness . |
| 95 | At the same time , cutting down public spending on will shift the financial pressure on families with old people . |
| 96 | Adults will face the dilemma between providing for their aged parents or supporting their young children 's education . |
| 97 | Such a societal trend reduces the possibility of the elderly tapping on filial obligation from their children to support them in future . |
| 98 | The elderly people will then need to support themselves which is impossible without the government 's help . |
| 99 | The high standard of living in many developed countries causes greater difficulties for working adults to support their parents ' medical expenses and still take care of their children 's needs . |
| 100 | The resulting situation is an increased amount of stress falling onto the shoulders of the remaining working adults as they struggled to provide for their older counterpart . |
| 101 | During the aging process , the elderly will face financial problems and may be abandoned by their children . |
| 102 | However , the children have to realise that not assuming their responsibilities to care for their parents , affects the whole society . |
| 103 | The elderly people could be a huge expense on the national budget , while there are other significant sectors demanding for more concern from the entire society , In spite of partly against moral aspects , the country 's interest might outweighs the filial obligations . |
| 104 | Therefore , it would be a huge financial burden for their relatives to support them . |
| 105 | Limiting public spending for the aged may in turn bring about social problems , as well as other issues that concerned family responsibilities and dignity . |
| 106 | Currently , much of the public discussions about an aging society involve the responsibility of children to look after their aged parents . |
| 107 | Although some of the government 's policies are initiated with the goal of encouraging the young to look after their aged parents , it does not seem to work out as planned . |
| 108 | If we spend less on the elderly , children will have the filial obligation to take care of the elderly . |
| 109 | In an increasingly society , working adults often have no time , attention , care and even finance to take care of their elderly parents and thus eventually abandon them in homes . |
| 110 | There is a common misconception that most welfare states end up being in debt and the people have a higher tendency to be over-reliant . |
| 111 | Hence , public funding may indirectly relate with the rising case of abandoned parents at the old folks ' . F these parents , all the funding seems to have lost its values , if they have lost their connection with their beloved family . |
| 112 | For example , an elderly who lives all alone by himself , without any children , will receive more help from the government if he is unable to provide for himself . |
| 113 | Now that they are old , they have problems working for their own allowance . |
| 114 | Affordability is now dictated by the government and the patient who is considered not qualified for the fund will end up paying more . This will in turn highlight the importance of self-reliance . |
| 115 | Furthermore , leaving the elderly to the care of family members may be more detrimental to the overall developement of the country . |
| 116 | The policy of passing laws that make it a must for children to look after their elderly parents is also much speculated over . |
| 117 | Also considering that the elderly had contributed to society during their working years , there is a moral responsibility on the government to pay them back . |
| 118 | However , not all elderly are well supported by their children . |
| 119 | Hence , the reduction in housing spending while spending more on the aged , may cost the government more . |
| 120 | When the elderly in society have no means to further finance themselves , the government has to step in and provide the extra financial assistance . |
| 121 | They are not able to earn their livings and probably must be dependent on the support and help from their relatives or from the society . |
| 122 | Besides that , there are other groups of population which need more money than the elderly such as the orphans , the handicapped and others . |
| 123 | Thus , the cost of medical treatment is considered as expensive by the aged especially those who hold low-income jobs or who live alone without the support of the family . |
| 124 | They wo n't be able to get ample financial support from their children and have to depend on the government to provide this assistance . |
| 125 | So , should it not be only fair that their children support them through their old age , especially when they have no one else to rely on ? |
| 126 | If we limit the amount the government pays , the additional cost falls on the shoulders of the family members which will then be shifted back to the government by the family in other means |
| 127 | However , they should take into consideration the fact that there are elderly from the past generations without good education who have not been able to save in their younger days . |
| 128 | However , one has to bear in mind the sizeable segment of the population that needs the government to aid them . |
| 129 | However , this demographic pattern of aging shows that the elderly women are likely to be widowed or single , and hence , they will be economically dependent . |
| 130 | Despite limitation to public spending on the aged , the real needy will still be able to obtain financial aid . |
| 131 | Furthermore , Parents Maintenance Act may not be entirely successful in getting the children to pay for their parents ' maintenance . |
| 132 | However , there are some older workers who are unable to attend any courses despite being to them at subsidized rates . |
| 133 | However , it should be understood that not all elderly have families or are able to take care of themselves . |
| 134 | Other than the elderly , there are also other groups of people equally in need of the government support to help them . |
| 135 | In addition , there will be a need to have domestic helpers or day-care-centers to take care of the elderly when there is nobody else to look after them . |
| 136 | However , low-income families can still obtain financial aid from government despite limitation to public spending on the aged . |
| 137 | In addition , the aged are not the only ones who require monetary support , other needy groups , such as the handicaps , also require monetary support to fund their healthcare needs . |
| 138 | Not only that , elderly who are being abandoned or are childless are disadvantaged as there is no one to support them in the future . |
| 139 | First and foremost , the elderly are financially vulnerable in the society and need public funding for their health care . |
| 140 | In fact , the aging populations who do not have families or who have a disability really need help from others . |
| 141 | In fact , there are some older people having no child or are single , so it is more difficult for them in their old days . |
| 142 | When they are sick , because they do not have families or have a disability , they can not take care of themselves . |
| 143 | In today 's society , the elderly are often viewed as social and financial burdens . |
| 144 | Furthermore limiting of public spending on the aged would shift more of these healthcare costs to the elderly themselves , causing the elderly to shoulder a heavier financial burden . |
| 145 | In conclusion , aged people can not rely on the government to take full responsibility for their needs since there are other priorities in the country 's developments which will create job opportunities , greater economic revenues , convenience and efficiency.Though the government has a social responsibility to look after the aged , families should take up the bulk of responsibility for caring and providing essential needs . |
| 146 | One of the reasons is due to other financial commitments like house installment , which has occupied a large portion of the couples ' salary |
| 147 | At the same time , it could be the mindset of some senior citizens , who feel the government should be footing their bills , as a right for the country 's elderly . |
| 148 | A growing number of families have faced a common problem in elderly care and that is resource management . |
| 149 | One of the major problems the elderly face today is the lack of financial security . |
| 150 | This would be a substantial load on the working people , who would then be responsible for contributing to the welfare system of the elderly . |
| 151 | However , even if the married children live with their parents , they may have no time to look after them . |
| 152 | If the government reduces public spending on elders , those whose living cost depends on t public spending have to rely on their children for support . |
| 153 | In the above paragraph , the vicious cycle occurs when the elderly depend on their children but , what will happen to the elderly if the children refuse to fulfil their filial obligations ? |
| 154 | A country is likely to also include the poor , the uneducated , the physically disabled , the intellectually underdeveloped , and many others who require constant monetary aid from the government . |
| 155 | However , we do have to take note that some of the elderly are unable to work even though the retirement age has been raised . |
| 156 | This is because donations from the public are used to support the basic daily operations of these organizations , thus leaving little or nothing to help these old folks financially . |
| 157 | Despite the introduction of the central provident fund , the aged population feel that it is insufficient for them to retire . |
| 158 | The aged living in poverty is only one group needing help , the others consist of the handicapped , mentally-disabled , single and unmarried , the illiterate , and so on who should not be denied of receiving public fund from the government . |
| 159 | Furthermore , will heavily burden those who have an elderly person at home and such stress leads many of them to abandon their elderly . |
| 160 | If the government refuses to help these people who had once contributed to the country , who can they rely on ? ? |
| 161 | In this case , they may not have the financial ability to take care of themselves without any help from the government . |
| 162 | Nevertheless , there will be special cases when such aged folk do not have children to rely on , either because they do not have kids , or due to some misfortune have lost their children . |
| 163 | Old people in old folks ' homes may have to deal with loneliness and the harsh fact that their own children whom they have brought up , have abandoned them . |
| 164 | The social obligation , which has been instilled in the children about the responsibility to care for the parents , will be eroded . |
| 165 | In their later years , if they encountered ungrateful children who are unwilling to take care of them , |
| 166 | However , in times of difficulties , old people have no one but their families and relatives to rely on , and we are back in the situation that we have discussed earlier . |
| 167 | If the government cuts the pension aid , the social cost and repercussion on families and local communities may be higher . |
| 168 | The significance of limiting public spending on the aged is the shift of financial burden to the individuals and their families . |
| 169 | Hence , not only the family but also the government should bear the responsibility of taking care of the old . |
| 170 | Eventually , they will have to depend on their children or ask for help from the government . |
| 171 | However , we also have to take into consideration that the children might have reasons for not supporting their parents . |
| 172 | They are older single women who are uneducated and were not able to save , that the government should especially provide help for . |
| 173 | With no one to rely on or any proper financial aid , the elderly would be unable to fend for themselves and perhaps left homeless . |
| 174 | It is especially true for the single elderly who do not have any children to take care of them at home . |
| 175 | Smaller side effects include the over reliance on the government to support the aged . |
| 176 | Firstly , slow population growth results in an increased burden for children in having to take care of their parents ( Peterson , 2001 ) . |
| 177 | The elderly who are unable to support themselves and are being abandoned by their children will have nowhere to turn to if the government turned its back on them . |
| 178 | Other than taxation from the working population which is compulsory , it is necessary to garner support from the government to provide social welfare services , day-care centres , social support and improvisation of health systems . |
| 179 | As a result , the whole societ , including the aged , will face a lot of problems as some of them are still seeking aid from the government . |
| 180 | This will affect the elderly who are either single or have no children , and those who have low educational level . |
| 181 | It follows that we often hear that the aged are living in poverty . |
| 182 | Higher divorce rates and family breakdown are becoming rampant in modern , urbanized societies and will have consequential effects on the quality of care and support for the elderly . |
| 183 | Throughout the process of aging , people will face certain problems relating to health , finance , and socialization ; and many of these problems are usually interrelated . |
| 184 | Another social issue will be the aged taking government help for granted and depriving aged people who are really in need such as old single women and disabled people . |
| 185 | Community services and befriending services provided for the elderly also require government expenditure . |
| 186 | However , some children might think that living with their parents is a nuisance because they need a lot of care and attention . |
| 187 | This would eventually lead to more children abandoning their elderly parents . |
| 188 | Moreover , a country which insists on providing maximum resources to the elderly care will face a dilemma when proposing a financial budget . |
| 189 | Even though with the help from the government and fund raising campaigns set up by charity organizations , there will be still a sizeable segment of the population the government has to consider to continue to aid . |
| 190 | However , even with all of these policies and subsidies , there is no guarantee that the elderly are able to pay for all of their living expenses . |
| 191 | The second solution being discussed in many countries is raising the children 's responsibility to care for their older parents . |
| 192 | The reason being , many elderly are being neglected by their own children , and thus uninsured . |
| 193 | This will make older women vulnerable financially . |
| 194 | As people get older , they tend to be more dependent on others in their daily activities . |
| 195 | However , this is not a fair assessment because there are elderly patients that have been abandoned by their children . |
| 196 | Critics might think that as someone is aging , that person can no longer provide for the society anymore . |
| 197 | For example , there are also many other needy people like orphans , the disabled or unemployed that want to be subsidized by the government . |
| 198 | Wellbeing of a child has been a major consideration and concern for most parents . |
| 199 | Living with their elderly parents will not just limit their social life , but also causes their freedom to be taken away . |
| 200 | However , the community and not only the government can help the weak elderly in society |
| 201 | While someone may argue that financial support to the elders offered by a government should be increased regardless of other objectives |
| 202 | One reason is the rising cost of care for the aged . |
| 203 | Most elderly are worried about retirement costs . |
| 204 | One of the major problems faced by the aged is financial security . |
| 205 | This is to make sure that those who eventually get the money are those who genuinely need financial assistance , not simply because they fall into the right age category |
| 206 | Even though there are schemes to make people save for their old age now , the older generation who have little or no education , are not able to comprehend what these schemes are about and what benefits they will get. . |
| 207 | Besides , for couples who purchase a house near their parents , they may not have time due to hectic work schedule and family commitments . |
| 208 | We actually have many kinds of help for the senior citizens instead of giving them money from the public budget . |
| 209 | With no limits set on the expenditure of welfare for the aged , a country will face enormous financial burdens in the funding of the public pension system , expensive healthcare system and long-term dependency expenditures . |
| 210 | In the past , elderly people would need someone else to look after them and respond to emergency situations . |
| 211 | One primary concern in providing healthcare for the aged is the cost . |
| 212 | The tax payers have to finance the medical expenses of their own parents and at the same time , pay for other elderly people 's medical bills . |
| 213 | Ultimately , it is the responsibility of the working population and the government to take care of the elderly . |
| 214 | Not to mention there are others like the needy who need financial aid as well . |
| 215 | The government only contributes through distribution of subsidies to help the aged while their children carry the responsibility of supporting them . |
| 216 | They need financial sources from not only their own children but also from the society . |
| 217 | With these young adults leaving the country , the elderly are the ones who suffer because they are left alone and most of the time , their children do not have the intention of coming back . |
| 218 | Even though the elderly continue to get money from the public , they still can not pay their medical bills , nor can their children . |
| 219 | Try to imagine how heavy the burden is for a family to take care of two elderly , or even more . |
| 220 | Most of the elderly claimed that they could not find a job even though they have the willingness to extend their retirement age . |
| 221 | By limiting public spending on the aged , there is most likely to be more old people struggling with medical fees . |
| 222 | They will not save their income earned while they are active in the work force to provide in advance for their own old age as they will think that the government will support them and that there will be more subsidies in medical and health care . |
| 223 | It merely leaves the individual and his/her family more responsible for their healthcare issues . |
| 224 | The only problem left is that with a longer life , what will a person do to give back to society and the next generations ? |
| 225 | In addition , the government has to work hand-in-hand with social organizations , like the which helps ethnic groups financially , especially the aged . |
| 226 | Lastly , it is undeniable that , some of the elderly have no children , and they are unable to work , especially those who are too old or uneducated . |
| 227 | Therefore , the elderly have to rely on the government . |
| 228 | Furthermore , the money that is spent on the aged ultimately comes from the pocket of the working population . |
| 229 | The children may even end up not supporting their parents at all . |
| 230 | Some countries are having difficulties in managing to get a place to live for their citizens as they tend to get overpopulated . |
| 231 | This is the case as most people will agree that elderly are not able to take care of themselves outside . |
| 232 | Thus , the old are now commonly assumed as " a burden to society " . |
| 233 | However , a good question comes to mind : what happens to someone who can not work hard when young and therefore has no one to care for him when he is old ? |
| 234 | No one can also be sure that all the aged people can lead good lives without any federal help . |
| 235 | An aging population is a social problem as well as an individual problem . |
| 236 | Her own countrymen might feel that they are not able to depend on the government for help and support in their golden age . Hence , this may lead to the possibility of an outflow of her people . |
| 237 | In some of the worst situation , elders do not even have any children that they can depend on on . |
| 238 | In fact , there are even cases where adult children abandon their parents in nursing homes to fend for themselves . |
| 239 | In most cases , the aged would be neglected or a few may even be abandoned in nursing homes . |
| 240 | There are many other groups of people such as the poor , sick and disabled who need help apart from the aged . |
| 241 | Besides that , there are still a segment of people that have no job , no savings nor even no family that we often . |
| 242 | Nothing could be further from the truth ; to care for the aged is to be taken upon by respective dependants , such as their children . |
| 243 | Also , one can not be sure that the increase in revenue would be diverted to the ageing population as a country may continuously tap on the increase in revenue to spur more economic growth . |
| 244 | They may not be physically able to work and at the same time their children have abandoned the task of taking care of them . |
| 245 | Having quality health care services at affordable prices is viewed as one of the most important needs for the aging population . |
| 246 | Without any family support , the only support they get will only come from the public 's generous donations . |
| 247 | Secondly , some senior citizens who do not have any children will have no support at all . |
| 248 | Finally , having no limitation on public spending on the aged will lead to an increase in dependency on the public spending by the aged . |
| 249 | For instance , there are still many who are living alone with no children to care for them . |
| 250 | Financial independence during old age is of great importance to many . |
| 251 | Emotionally , the elderly will feel lonely as their parents , friends and in some cases their life partner has departed . |
| 252 | The elderly have been perceived as the nation 's burden . |
| 253 | In the past , the old people just depend on their next generations . |
| 254 | The government is considering implementing a longevity insurance scheme that provides basic and affordable plans to ensure long-life income . |
| 255 | Who will take care of the child when they are not around ? |

This could be to spend more on education and infrastructure which will generate sufficient revenue in the future and then it can be spent on the aged . |
| 7 | One of the reasons why social development has the highest percentage is because governments are facing the problems of an aging population and are looking for ways to resolve them . |
| 8 | The government needs to help solve ageing issues and plan for the country so that the country will not suffer when crises arrive . |
| 9 | Without new policies and further research and development in all fields of study , relating to the aged , they will face difficulties in living inheir current environment . |

| 11 | Government expenditure on these facilities would help prepare the country for the ageing population . |
| 12 | In conclusion , as many developed countries are facing a fast aging population , proper research and development have to be carried out in order to ease the aging process . |
| 13 | Thus , this highlights the need for effective policies and research to be implemented and conducted , in order to cushion the negative impacts of aging process . |
| 14 | With the help of current research and development/policies , the society and the people will be more prepared in adapting to an aging population . |
| 15 | Apart from the methods mentioned above , there are more and more effective methods need to be devised to handle aging population instead of directly spending on the aged . |
| 16 | Aging populations are compelling governments to create or revise policies and development that may affect the life of its citizens |
| 17 | Although it is a controversial issue to talk about aging population and its burden to the society , this essay indicates alternatives the government can do besides spending too much on the aged to adapt to the challenge for the future , which is " to ensure that people everywhere will be enabled to age with security and dignity and continue to participate in their societies as citizens with full rights " . |
| 18 | Only when the ageing population issue is well managed can a desirable outcome on the country 's development be achieved. . |
| 19 | Therefore , policymakers need to implement new policies to ensure that elderly people enjoy a happy yet productive life even when they age . |
| 20 | In conclusion , limiting fiscal costs on the aged without thorough considerations could lead to unexpected results which directly affect the elderly themselves and their families , as well as indirectly impact on the society and the country 's development . |
| 21 | Despite the government 's attempt to ease the aging process , there are still many issues that need further careful consideration . |
| 22 | In brief , leaders in governments must and implement practical measures to cope with the problems of a fast aging population . |
| 23 | With regard to the problems , many countries focus much attention on it by introducing policies or by giving out funds in order to reduce the problems caused by the ageing population . |
| 24 | It is also important that ageing related problems are highlighted so that corresponding policies can be implemented , for example the introduction of the pension system and late retirement to reduce elder dependency . |
| 25 | Hence , containing rising health care cost and increasing accessibility are essential to help ease the aging process . |
| 26 | The challenge is to encourage healthy and productive life for the aging population and find ways for them to contribute more to the society so that they can play a valuable role in the country . |
| 27 | However , more emphasis should be placed on the development of social policy that will help to alleviate and address concerns such as the lack of financial support and social care , which affects the elderly more directly . |
| 28 | Despite the perplexing issues arising in the process of aging , the government has put in much effort in developing policies and aiding in research to alleviate its negative impact on society . |
| 29 | However , it is when people can prolong their life-span that governments need to pay attention to another difficulty --- the social influences of an aging population . |
| 30 | There is a need to put in place government policies and programmes to meet the emerging needs of an ageing population . |
| 31 | To prevent such situations from happening , different governments of the developed nations have come up with policies to confront the challenges of an aging population . |
| 32 | However , social policy has to be revised to address the changing needs of the elderly . |
| 33 | Subsequently , these policies should be revised and improved frequently as the needs and concerns of the aged will change over time . |
| 34 | Finally , building new infrastructure that caters to the elderly will help a country prepare for the aging population . |
| 35 | Furthermore , if it is not properly handled , more issues relating to the aging population will arise causing serious consequences to the growth of the country . |
| 36 | To prepare for the growing demand of the ageing population , more government funding is required for providing better infrastructure and amenities for the elderly . |
| 37 | It is worth remembering that policy makers should also focus on other areas to develop their countries as well as reduce the pressure of the graying population . |
| 38 | The problems of an ageing population have led to these countries coming up with measures to counteract the problems . |
| 39 | Nevertheless working policies and development to assist the aged can help with the country expansion . |
| 40 | In conclusion , our society should pay much attention to the aging problems and come up with solutions . |
| 41 | Aging population is a problem that no country can escape , so what the government can do is to reduce this aging process with the help of research and policies . |
| 42 | Besides introducing policies that help the elderly , people have to also change their attitude towards the aged to engage the elderly into the society and strive together to ease the ageing process . |
| 43 | Without immediate actions from both the government and the society , it might create problems for the country and the elderly themselves in the future . |
| 44 | IIt is recommended that more policies be considered and technologies be developed in order to improve the life of the elderly . |
| 45 | Governments need to strike a delicate balance in allocating scarce resources to develop other crucial areas as they are indirectly related to healthcare costs incurred by the aged . |
| 46 | Thus , the government has to critically consider these worrying demographic changes and allocate a satisfactory portion of the national budget to lighten the burden of the caregiver generation . |
| 47 | The effectiveness and relevance of these policies should be evaluated regularly to provide an even better understanding of changing requirements and needs of the elderly . |
| 48 | In general , aging population is a global problem and needs to be solved as soon as possible but we have to consider the solutions carefully . |
| 49 | In the years to come , we will face greater challenges as we gradually experience the full impact of the aging population , of which new strategies will have to be integrated along with the current ones to meet the changing circumstances that we might face . |
| 50 | Hence , to prevent the ageing process from becoming a burden on the country , it will require policy treatments to cushion the adverse impact of the demands of an ageing population . |
| 51 | In social policy , the government has tried to improve the awareness among the young generation to care more about the elderly . |
| 52 | Taking care of the aging population and spending some for them is indeed the government 's obligation and responsibility but one can already see that there are some alternative and better ways to solve and to take care of this population problem , as shown above . |
| 53 | The government will have to constantly review and improve the measures to be prepared for the aging population . |
| 54 | But if we do not maintain a good infrastructure that caters to the elderly , no matter how good the economy is , the elderly will not be able to enjoy accessible and user-friendly facilities that make their life more convenient. . |
| 55 | Hence , more time and effort should be placed on the other areas of the country 's development which will in turn reduce the negative effects of an ageing population . |
| 56 | Thus , to deal with such challenges , research has been carried out and development as well as policies have been developed to help the elderly . |
| 57 | To a large extent , governments , society , and young people should do something for the aging problem . |
| 58 | Whilst we spend resources resolving the issue pertaining to the aging population , implications such as the increase in societal costs could arise if welfare programs are curtailed , cut and restricted . |
| 59 | Therefore , to have pillars such as having sufficient social support and having an active engagement in life helps the elderly to cope with the inevitable stress of elderly life . |
| 60 | With the increase in the number of elderly , there would be a need for safety areas , thus products or services should be designed to meet this need . |
| 61 | Hence , more support and care for the aged should be provided which in turn will pose a strain to the younger generation . |
| 62 | Even though The government has implemented so many policies to help ease the aging process , some people still view this as insufficient. . |
| 63 | Thus , measures for aiding the increasing aging population in terms of healthcare subsidies and daily expenditures should be proactively prepared . |
| 64 | On the contrary , if issues related to the aging population are not dealt with appropriately , the social impact on a nation 's development may be hindered . |
| 65 | Without these policies , the elderly will be facing problems in terms of monetary , healthcare and housing in future . |
| 66 | Governments , realizing that there will be profound consequences followed by this global demographic transformation , have now come out with different strategies and policies to ease the aging process . |
| 67 | As the aging population to some extent has had a negative impact on society , social policies play an important role in reducing the effect which could otherwise cause social disintegration within a country . |
| 68 | The government may need to consider the social changes and needs of the younger population to improve the aging process on a long-term basis . |
| 69 | Inevitably , governments must intervene in order to curb this ageing population problem . |
| 70 | It is more important to pay attention to other trends and characteristics of aging population in order to solve this problem in some other ways . |
| 71 | However , if these needs and concerns of the elderly are not taken care of , it may result in dire consequences . |
| 72 | In view of the increasing number of elderly , governments across the globe have implemented various policies to help them cope with the aging process . |
| 73 | Population ageing will bring about social and economic changes , and such a shift in the age structure means that the government has to make amendments to the public spending on the aged . |
| 74 | The strategies implemented might be successful ; however , the painful process of aging is still inevitable unless the country can understand the inner world of the elderly . |
| 75 | These are complex social problems that might significantly impact other members of the society , and hence , the development of the country , if not handled appropriately . |
| 76 | Unless there is a change in attitude towards the older workers , it will be difficult for them to be find jobs , which can keep them active and support their financial needs . |
| 77 | Despite the important role played by a government in ensuring the well being of the aged , there should be a balance in maintaining its social presence to prevent the elderly from over relying upon them . |
| 78 | Without growth , a country will not have the financial ability to be able to provide welfare benefits and to support the needy , usually the elderly . |
| 79 | While current research and policies have helped to ease the aging process , there are limitations to these policies that make these policies not as effective . |
| 80 | Critics may argue that even if the country is performing well economically , she may not be progressing socially if she fails to address the people 's needs , especially the elderly 's . |
| 81 | In addition , the government should provide for public facilities , amenities and services , to cater to the needs of the ageing population . |
| 82 | With regards to the ageing population , governments should adopt a flexible approach in policy making in order to cater to their country 's ever changing needs . |
| 83 | Therefore , we must pay attention on current research , development and policies to ease the aging process . |
| 84 | Because of this aging process , there is a need for research and development to come out with ideas to counteract it . |
| 85 | Resources will be needed to upgrade the country 's infrastructure to cater to the needs of the older population . |
| 86 | Clearly , as the aging process continues , the importance of adapting to the changes brought forth by an aging population becomes greater . |
| 87 | In conclusion , the government has done well to prepare the country for ageing population in the aspects of economy , social and population growth . |
| 88 | With the development of societies , governments and policy makers pay more attention to the phenomenon of aging populations , especially in developed countries . |
| 89 | Governments have thought of many measures to help improve the aging population situation . |
| 90 | In the following paragraphs , issues on whether the government should redirect public funds to other more important matters concerning the country , or focus on improving the health of the aged by growing the resources especially for them . |
| 91 | Certainly , without the policies undertaken by the state , the graying population will bring about problems both in the economy and at home . |
| 92 | In anticipation of this , governments have set in place policies as well as initiatives to ease the ageing process for both the individual and society . |
| 93 | In conclusion , countries have used various means to ensure a better aging process for the elderly . |
| 94 | Lastly , it is essential for there to be continuity in research and development to be able to create policies that suit the the needs of the elderly . |
| 95 | However , more research has to be done in order to keep elder dependency low and provide cost effective and affordable healthcare . |
| 96 | Therefore , other strategies should also be introduced to cope with the problem of an aging population . |
| 97 | We must deal with problems such as labour force shortage and low productivity to ensure the sustainable development of our economy before we could proceed to handle the costly expenses such as the healthcare , housing and retirement benefits of the aged . |
| 98 | Policy makers should find another solution to reduce the rising cost of healthcare or welfare schemes to maximize the benefits of both citizens and the nation . |
| 99 | Reducing elderly dependency is one way in which governments can tackle the worrying phenomenon of a greying population . |
| 100 | Aging is a big issue , governments from all over the world are pushing forward policies and Research and Developments to stem its economical and social impacts on a country . |
| 101 | Examples include a need to build facilities that are elderly-friendly and heavy subsidizing their medical fees due to their poor health and low income . |
| 102 | Without this , a nation will face stronger challenges . Helping the aged will then not even be possible . |
| 103 | Although the aging process has raised many problems in our lives , current science research and social policies have helped to solve these problems . |
| 104 | This leads to a continuous search for new research and developments/policies which can aid in today 's aging population growth . |
| 105 | As the population ages , the importance of public spending on the aged with regards to healthcare should be managed effectively without having to over spend or iinadequately provide . |
| 106 | The problems that come with the ageing process can be resolved by implementing targeted policies for the elderly . |
| 107 | Secondly , there is a need to increase the efficiency of the social and health care system by curbing the rising cost of health care service and making it more accessible to the aged . |
| 108 | Governments and policy makers will take the main role to formulate the best policies to deal with the long-term economic and social challenge of global aging , so that we are fully prepared to face this issue . |
| 109 | Thus , there is a need for other policies in order to protect this vulnerable group of elderly . |
| 110 | The fact that it may pose serious challenges for financial resources and the caring from the younger generation when the aging population changes rapidly urges people to alter the way they support themselves . |
| 111 | This will compel agencies to change the way they service , especially to the elderly . |
| 112 | Some strategies can be introduced to deal with the aging population . |
| 113 | Finally , society plays a major role in coping with the problem of an aging population with the country 's government as a support . |
| 114 | The issue if not dealt with properly , might place government into a challenging position , lack of funds on important sectors such as education and defence and also causing the citizens to be over reliant on the society . |
| 115 | Governments of many countries have come up with policies and solutions to decrease elder dependency and slow down the process of a fast aging population . |
| 116 | This is a good solution to cope with the increasing aging population , one of the current difficult global problems . |
| 117 | This has shown that the government is committed to address the needs of an ageing population in its policies . |
| 118 | Firstly , improving on current facilities to better suit the aged is compulsory . |
| 119 | In a nutshell , current development on policy reforms and researches has been carried out simultaneously over the past decades to help cope with both societal and physical impact of the aging issue . |
| 120 | They have invested time and money to research on policies that can help solve the aging population crisis . |
| 121 | Many countries are starting to pump money into research and to introduce policies to ease the aging process as it will lead to problems like widening of the tax base and healthcare shortages . |
| 122 | The government has responded to this issue by establishing policies and programs to manage the aging process . |
| 123 | The elderly often face emotional , mental and physical problems and if these issues are not addressed , there will be economic and social implications for the country . |
| 124 | Thus , the government needs to prevent health care costs from escalatng too much and also to decide how much funding should be set aside for the elderly . |
| 125 | As the pace of population ageing increases with time , the issues may become more complex because of the changing expectations and preferences of the population . |
| 126 | Without these developments , there 's no way we can ensure that the welfare of the graying generations will be met . |
| 127 | Deterioration of a greying population due to problems associated with it can be addressed via strategies formed from policies for the aged . |
| 128 | Hence , a change in the healthcare system will result in cost effectiveness as the aging population increases and efficiency in treatments . |
| 129 | Other than that , the elderly must also play their part by creating more awareness in society and participating actively in the policies or devices produced for them . |
| 130 | The government has taken some measures to deal with the reality of the aging society |
| 131 | Careful management of current expenses along with an expanding economy will be our only feasible cure to aging problems . |
| 132 | Research and development is also important to measure to what extent the government should provide sensible solutions in terms of expenditure to support medical requirements for the aged . |
| 133 | To countries with old populations , medical science needs to be considered and invested more in so that we will have more and better ways of easing the aging process . |
| 134 | Thus , research and policies need to be revised to deal with the aging process effectively . |
| 135 | To ease the aging process , governments have to put in a great effort in the research of medicine to provide the best treatment for the aged . |
| 136 | If a country fails to take care of this significant portion of society , its people would lose confidence in government 's ability to handle other topics as well . |
| 137 | Lastly , an ageing population would mean the special care that to be directed in order to cater to the needs of them . |
| 138 | Likewise , they need to forecast future demographic trends and be flexible in changing and implementing new fiscal measures to deal with the graying population . |
| 139 | Although there is still skepticism around the two policies which are used to ease the pressure of aging population , a number of study and facts have shown us their benefits to our society . |
| 140 | However , it is a worthwhile practice for citizens to plan for their income and expenditure and their future . |
| 141 | As mentioned above , the country 's development will determine its future financial capacity to solve various social problems including aging . |
| 142 | Although this much have been done to improve the living conditions of the elderly , the full benefits can not be reaped if the plans are not widespread enough . |
| 143 | With a carefully constructed policy , government agencies get to develop a holistic approach that meets the needs of the elderly . |
| 144 | As the elderly are physically weaker and have poorer vision , elderly friendly infrastructures ,which include enhancements to transport facilities and housing , are necessary to free the elderly from problems of mobility within the community. . |
| 145 | In conclusion , the country 's development is more important than the aging population as it helps the entire population including the elderly . |
| 146 | Instead , the society is able to afford this growing aging population only when we can ensure that the growth rate of our economy is able to match that of the aging population . |
| 147 | Aging would become much more difficult and uncomfortable without these technologies . |
| 148 | Solutions such as having different subsidy frameworks for community hospitals to help patients to cope with the expensive bills ( Ministry of Health [ MOH ] , 2009 ) and monthly Transport allowance for the elderly who visit day-care centres ( Lin , 2008 ) were implemented to ease the tension that fast aging has brought to the low-income elderly . |
| 149 | Extra care and effort must be provided to consider the safety and wellbeing of the elderly . |
| 150 | Not attending to their needs may have serious impact on the society . |
| 151 | In this modern age , there is no doubt that up to date research and development on policies is imperative to identify problems that the elderly face . |
| 152 | There are a lot of alternative methods that we can use to cope with the aging population . |
| 153 | Maintaining and sustaining a country is not just about looking after the aged , but also about developing growing sectors of our nation . |
| 154 | Although this problem is unlikely to be solved in the short run , many ways have been carried out to ease the aging process , particularly in social policy and science research . |
| 155 | Furthermore , excessive spending on the aged can hinder a country 's growth , which demands equal attention . |
| 156 | The aged should be cared for by society . Their basic needs should be satisfied first , then the countries ' development can be tackled . |
| 157 | As a result , immobility would be a hindrance to their lifestyles without the existence of convenient infrastructure . |
| 158 | Therefore , the government should think of a better way to tackle this problem so that the society will have a domestic routine to serve the elderly who need its assistance . |
| 159 | Issue in regards to the graying population requires a balance effort from both the government and its citizens . |
| 160 | Without the determination of individuals to work past their prime and increase their wealth accumulation , implementing good economic policies will also be ineffective . |
| 161 | The elderly have to be convinced to adopt a healthy and balanced lifestyle . |
| 162 | Among them is the aging problem , which leads to a restructuring of the social composition . |
| 163 | Despite strains experienced on public spending , to a large extent given the severity/urgency of the problem , the well being..wt the well being of the elderly should be attended to first with priority before any other aspects come into considerations during policy making . |
| 164 | Therefore , I conclude that although current research and development and policies have helped to ease the aging process to a large extent , they have not managed to fully solve the problem . |
| 165 | In dealing with an ageing population , research and development has pushed countries to move forward in a new paradigm of ageing . |
| 166 | However , with the world noticing the shift in its demographics to a more aged society , things are becoming more accommodating for the elderly . |
| 167 | These social policies should be credited in helping the current generation of older adults cope with the emotional and behavourial challenges of the aging process . |
| 168 | More emphasis will have to be placed to catering to the needs of the elderly , so that they can transit into the aging phase more easily . |
| 169 | Clearly , as the population of the older generation increases , the importance of research and development of policies grows larger . |
| 170 | In conclusion , it seems that governments from all over the world are prepared to counter rising aging population problems . |
| 171 | Laws should also be implemented to help control the issue of the elderly being neglected . |
| 172 | An ageing population brings challenges and opportunities for people to explore . |
| 173 | In conclusion , research and development is the best method to help the elderly survive several conditions that compromise the quality of their health and independence . |
| 174 | If the government did not provide any form of aid and shifted the responsibility to the family or society , there would be catastrophic consequences . |
| 175 | The new research and development/policies in the future should be well thought so that they will provide aids for the elderly instead of hindrances for them to go through the last phase of their life . |
| 176 | It is hard to see how such research and policies do not help to ease the aging process |
| 177 | If the problem is not dealt with properly , this may eventually affect the country 's development . |
| 178 | This essay will discuss those policies as the government 's efforts to create a brighter future for the old people . |
| 179 | Lastly , policies have been implemented by countries to help the aged . |
| 180 | The growing pool of seniors would require varied expectations and needs . |
| 181 | Over the years , research and development in all fields of study has been constantly changing and improving the life of older people . |
| 182 | In conclusion , although such research and policies have yet to fully solve the problem of an aging population , they still provide alternatives for the aged and society to cope with the problem . |
| 183 | Even though research and development or policies in can have an unconstructive impact , it still has a positive impact in aiding the ageing process . |
| 184 | Limiting spending on the aged population could bring about social instability , affecting society infrastructure which greatly affects a country 's image in the international community . |
| 185 | These changes demonstrated how seriously the government has assumed its responsibility in managing its ageing population . |
| 186 | If governments do not provide enough aid and thus lead to an increase of the severity of the situation , it can indirectly affect the country 's development . |
| 187 | Researchers and policy makers have made a lot of suggestions and developed a lot of strategies to help buffet the negative impact of an aging population on our society . |
| 188 | The government should aim to provide a better infrastructure for the old as well . |
| 189 | This description of old age is true as most countries have now increased efforts to address the challenges surrounding the graying population . |
| 190 | These needy are our country 's liability and we ought to render more help to them , who could in the end , contribute back to the society after they have recuperated . |
| 191 | Solutions , for instance , decision making for the policies and development of technologies through research can definitely influence the aged . |
| 192 | There is much concern due to the negative impact on the stable economy and society caused by a graying population . |
| 193 | This is essential to the elderly so they will not feel so helpless and unwanted . |
| 194 | Thus it comes as no surprise that governments around the world have stepped up their efforts to alleviate the effects of global aging . |
| 195 | Also , cost reduction and increasing accessibility are vital for an efficient health care system . |
| 196 | Knowing the difficulties in encouraging Singaporeans to have more children , the government and related organizations decided to carry out research studies and implement policies to ease the aging process in different areas such as the medical field . |
| 197 | Researchers believe that the critical challenge of an aging society is not only about how to accommodate the older population , but about how to ensure the productivity of future workers , regardless of age . |
| 198 | Young adults need to make an effort to save . |
| 199 | With the development of various policies and strategies , leaders must understand that the best strategy is one where everyone unites together in conquering the long term battle of global aging . |
| 200 | During their contribution to the working world , the aged should be able to plan ahead for their future on the likely costs incurred for health care services . |
| 201 | There are many current researches done to help the issue of aging process , be it in the field of economics , medicine , social policy and much more . |
| 202 | The CPF policy may provide cover for the elderly , but they will not be able to use it wisely if the state does not provide useful information or advice for its usage . |
| 203 | By and large , until we find the better way to balance the global population , the two solutions are , at least , beneficial . |
| 204 | It is essential that they learn how to not only manage their wealth but also expand it so that when they choose to stop working , they would have enough money to pay for their necessities and have enough for any unexpected expenses . |
| 205 | In the above paragraph , it was mentioned that if the government does not target the health issue of the aged seriously , it may eventually backfire. . |
| 206 | First of all , put first things first , this means satisfying the basic needs ofthe aged is the most important thing for a country , as only when the basic needs of people are satisfied , can development be possible. . |
| 207 | Social subsidies should be evaluated on their merits and the ability to sustain them without burdening future generations by borrowing from reserves . |
| 208 | In terms of improving the ability of the elderly in engaging social exchange , mobility and places are the important aspect . |
| 209 | In order to tackle the issues that are resulted from aging populations , many researches and studies have been done . |
| 210 | Now when they are old , they can not continue to do productive work , so it is our society 's responsibility to support them . |
| 211 | Furthermore , in order to change the mindsets of the elderly , a systematic year-round public education ( PE ) program ( Committee on Ageing Issues , n.d. ) should be conducted , to infuse a culture of personal responsibility and lifelong planning for old age . |
| 212 | Understanding the issue will change the way the society thinks about aging elderly , taking it to the level of humanity instead of practicality . |
| 213 | Hence , in future , when migration issues becomes a global pandemic , the public should give a helping hand to the aged since the children will no longer take care of their needs . |
| 214 | As such areas are the key pillars of a country 's development , any slowdown in these areas will affect the country 's regional competitiveness . |
| 215 | One aspect is the formulating of policies with the elderly in mind . |
| 216 | This shows the government 's quick response to situation changes while staying true to its aim of easing the aging process . |
| 217 | Firstly , for a graying population around the world , lots of policies have been applied to control the birth and death rate or to balance the age structure . |
| 218 | As mentioned in the " Global action on aging " website , the number of senior citizens is rising taking care of them imperative . |
| 219 | Also , we have to create an environment which is elderly-friendly so that the elders are able to take care of themselves without the help of others . |
| 220 | Without clear guidelines , the elderly could easily abuse the system . |
| 221 | As such , critics disagree with the statement that the current policies have helped to ease the aging process to a large extent . |
| 222 | Therefore , creating a barrier-free environment is necessary to cater to the needs of the elderly . |
| 223 | This may result in a slowdown in the progress of a country because the progress of a country is dependent on its ability to keep up with the competitive global economy . |
| 224 | There are differing views about health insurance to be subsidised from current budgetary surpluses , and about the Government financing more of its longer-term development expenditure by borrowing from its reserves so as to free up current revenues for social spending . |
| 225 | The policies and investments on the aged for today is the preparation by the Government to mould a better future for tomorrow . |
| 226 | Due to the globally aging population , many countries have since started their research and development on the aging process . |
| 227 | Now , people who are living longer and longer lives must carefully plan their lives. . |
| 228 | In conclusion , the nation needs to sacrifice the elderly temporarily for the benefit of everyone . |
| 229 | Although they have not been perfectly completed , based on fair judgment , such ideas have helped to lighten the aging effects in our society . |
| 230 | Nevertheless , the effectiveness of current research and policies in helping to ease the aging process are doubted by the public . |
| 231 | In a modern individualistic culture , a person should be conscious and prepared for his post-retirement . |
| 232 | Despite some opposite opinions on how science makes aging a serious problem in many societies , the benefits science brings to ease this process seems to severely outweigh its detriments . |
| 233 | However , some may argue that doing so may limit the country 's development . |
| 234 | But today , without them , our survival seems questionable . |
| 235 | However , it is also important that stringent guidelines be set to ensure that those elderly who are eligible for the financial assistance scheme are really the ones receiving them . |
| 236 | US citizens involved in the process have to be very careful with their daily lifestyles . |
| 237 | However , such a large proportional expense can only be achieved under the condition of a stable economic environment . |
| 238 | " Our society must make it right and possible for old people not to fear the young or be deserted by them , for the test of a civilization is the way that it cares for its helpless members . |
| 239 | Sectors like housing and consumers'market had to be carefully taken care of . |
| 240 | It is not unknown that Scientists have been researching while governments are constantly improving development and policies for the elderly . |
| 241 | Therefore , in view of this , current research and policies have been carried out by the Korean government and have helped to buffer the ageing process . |
| 242 | When talking about the most striking features of aging we can not forget the progress of science and its effects on almost every aspect of human life . |

| 6 | Besides , the demand for the energy is soaring , a more efficient ways should be used to generate energy . |
| 7 | Hence , there is a need for new alternative methods of generating electricity that are capable of satisfying the energy demand of the growing world population . |
| 8 | To ensure a sufficient energy supply has become an urgent human need . |
| 9 | These have caused the demand for energy rising fast . |
| 10 | As a result , there is a need to depend on alternative energy resources to satisfy our high energy demands . |
|---|---|
| 11 | With the fast development of human society , we are facing more and more demanding energy requirements . |
| 12 | As the world 's energy demand is on the rise , the world has to look into alternatives to solve this issue . |
| 13 | With the speedy development throughout the whole world , the rise in energy needs becomes an unavoidable problem . |
| 14 | Therefore , there is an increasing demand for energy usage throughout the world . |
| 15 | Hence , the demand for effective energy supply is a major need of modern people . |
| 16 | Our natural resources are rapidly consumed to supply energy for society . |
| 17 | In daily life , the energy supply is so important because almost all human activities , like cooking , working , heating and even water supply can not work normally without electricity , and the emerging energy shortage is impossible to solve without the development of new energy sources |
| 18 | Therefore , these will lead to the high energy outputs which can cater for an increasing demand on the electricity consumption . |
| 19 | Now , human beings are facing a series of harsh realities : greenhouse emission , depletion of non-renewable resources , increasing thirst for energy . |
| 20 | Nowadays , with the threat of green house effect and the increasing need for energy , people are urgently looking for new energy resources . |
| 21 | Modern life depends on energy supply to a great extent . |
| 22 | There is a rising demand for energy today . |
| 23 | With the increase in global population , the demand for energy is increasing . |
| 24 | Simultaneously , the demands of energy are increasing rapidly . |
| 25 | What is worse , electricity demand is increasing dramatically due to speeded economic development worldwide . |
| 26 | With the explosion of global population , the world is demanding more energy than ever . |
| 27 | However , due to the large consumption of energy , most countries are facing serious energy crisis . |
| 28 | This leads to quite a tough situation where we have to find some other ways which are even more efficient to provide energy for the whole society . |
| 29 | With rapid industrialisation , the energy requirements of the world are increasing exponentially.It has increased to a point where the conventional sources of energy are no longer able to meet the demands . There is also the problem of pollution which is becoming graver everyday and threatens to eradicate life altogether on this planet . |
| 30 | " Hence , the current human need for energy is one need that we must prioritize . |
| 31 | The notion of addressing the world 's power needs has never been more pressing as developing countries become more developed , population increases tremendously and demands for power supply escalate exponentially . |
| 32 | In sum , the demand for energy supply is a current need that is closely relevant to people 's lives , as it is the basis for maintaining a high living standard . |
| 33 | Nowadays , with the increasing population of the society , the limited resources can not meet the large amount of demand of energy . |
| 34 | With the increasing demand for energy and the rapid depletion of currently available energy resources , nations are now trying to look for new , alternative ways of energy generation . |
| 35 | Thus , it has become really urgent to find a substitutable energy source to meet the increasing demand of human beings . |
| 36 | The pace of industrialization has become faster and faster , so numerous energy sources are needed . |
| 37 | As society develops rapidly , the demand for energy also increases in tandem . |
| 38 | The drastic industrial development and advancement in science and technology has led to the rising energy demand . |
| 39 | Nowadays , the scarcity of energy has increasingly become a severe problem . |
| 40 | When we are faced with the unprecedented energy crisis , finding an alternative energy resource has naturally become the top priority issue . |
| 41 | As the worlds ' population grows ever larger , the worlds ' energy consumption also increases ; hence a sustainable energy source needs to be found to supply developing countries and others with enough energy . |
| 42 | With the development of technology and the increase in populations , energy demand has exploded . |
| 43 | In conclusion , to maintain the sustainable development of our society , we should give priority to the current human need to develop more energy from various of human society . |
| 44 | It is known that global warming and rising energy consumption are the major challenges for people to solve in the near future . |
| 45 | It demands a profound transformation in the ways we generate and consume energy . |
| 46 | With the increasing population , the demand on energy sources will increase . |
| 47 | Because the speed of industrial development increases so fast , more energy is needed . |
| 48 | Electricity has become an important component of the human world since it is needed to power and sustain technology . |
| 49 | This could help to meet the rising energy demand . |
| 50 | Among them , the shortage of energy resources is the most urgent one to be resolved . |
| 51 | Nowadays , as industry develops much faster , more energy is needed . |
| 52 | Although some countries are still keeping up with the rapid increasing of energy demands , there is still a need for other alternatives to prepare for the future . |
| 53 | To sum up , the most current human need that has to be prioritized is the need for energy . |
| 54 | Hence , as the demand for the energy will go up , the research for alternative energy is inevitable . |
| 55 | The world 's natural resources are depleting rapidly and there is a need to search for alternatives to meet the ever increasing energy demands of the world . |
| 56 | With the development of science and technologies , the demand for energy keeps increasing . |
| 57 | The energy crisis appears to be increasingly serious as human consumption keeps increasing while the increase in energy supply is slow . |
| 58 | In addition , as society grows , the demand for such energy grows as well . |
| 59 | To illustrate this simply , one current need of modern people is the demand for a consistent energy source . |
| 60 | We speculate that the demand for energy in future will be greatly increasing for future development . |
| 61 | With the development of the post-modern society , more and more energy is required for its maintenance and growth . |
| 62 | In conclusion , I contend that energy problem should be classified as first priority for humans to solve not only because of many huge benefits it provides for people but also because of the critical shortage of energy resources . |
| 63 | Nowadays , the energy problem has gradually become a burning issue among the whole world . |
| 64 | In conclusion , the shortage of energy resources is threatening the development of the world . |
| 65 | One of the reasons may be also due to the increasing population and resulting in people consuming energy more than the amount of energy produced . |
| 66 | In fact , whether one can keep leading a high quality of life largely depends on a reliable energy supply . |
| 67 | Furthermore , the world today requires more energy and the energy demand is not met with the existing renewable resources as they have their own limitations . |
| 68 | With the global growth in population and economy , energies needed for either manufacturing industries or home appliances are increasing ; hence , developing nuclear power becomes an important issue . |
| 69 | In conclusion , energy is the key to keeping our society and economic development sustainable . |
| 70 | To run all these things , we need energy . |
| 71 | With rapidly rising demand for energy , scientists and big energy companies are aggressively looking for an alternative source of energy to fossil fuel which is a depleting natural resource . |
| 72 | The use of high temperature creates an extremely volatile and sensitive situation which , on the one hand raises output efficiency ( OECD Nuclear Energy Agency , 2000 ) , but also requires a precise state-of-the-art monitoring system that further increases the production prices . |
| 73 | This amount of power produced is enough to outweigh other energy sources as it can cover the increased energy needs in the future . |
| 74 | Besides , with the rapid development of industry and huge increase of population , there are booming energy demands in every country . |
| 75 | Firstly , the tremendous increase in consumption of energy due to the growing population and development of nations . |
| 76 | In order to provide electricity to the increasing population , governments around the world have to build more power plants to maintain undisrupted power supply to the cities . |
| 77 | Living in a society with unprecedented material prosperity , human beings are faced with severe problems resulting from energy and resource shortage . |
| 78 | Therefore , the current human need to find endless energy source is becoming more and more urgent , so it should be given priority . |
| 79 | Therefore , a search for higher efficient and safe energy supply is desperately needed and it is already on the agenda of all countries . |
| 80 | Many countries now are trying to increase the cost of energy to prevent people from misusing them . |
| 81 | This serious shortage of energy is affecting industries as well as the daily lives of people . |
| 82 | Humans are facing a very serious problem , the crisis of shortage of energy . |
| 83 | Global warming and worldwide shortage of energy are main problems . |
| 84 | First of all , the most practical part of solution is to make full use of energy . |
| 85 | As our society progresses human beings get stuck in a dilemma of energy . |
| 86 | Therefore , they are unable to meet the intense energy demand of our growing economies . |
| 87 | Throughout the long-standing history of humanity , the energy has played a crucial role in changing civilization to the new level . |
| 88 | The world 's demand for energy has increased drastically over the last few decades . |
| 89 | The consumption of electricity in the world is increasing continually . |
| 90 | This prediction indicates that we need to find alternative sources of energy in order to continue our daily life . |
| 91 | Global warming has become a concern to people due to its high emission of greenhouse gases from energy usage . |
| 92 | This is a typical example of how important energy is since it has a great impact on our daily life . |
| 93 | Incredible as it seems in such a resource-rich earth , the energy crisis has become one problem . |
| 94 | Therefore , the search for a quick and powerful new source of energy is urgent and vital . |
| 95 | This exploitation of natural resources will result in a shortage of energy in the next few decades . |
| 96 | This high-efficiency system is wildly used in the " high-temperature , energy-intensive and non-electric processes " . |
| 97 | With the modernization of the world , the consumption of energy has drastically increased . |
| 98 | As technology continues to advance at an ever increasing rate , energy is also being consumed at a rapid pace . |
| 99 | With the fast development of high-technology , more energy is needed both for industrial use and for home use . |
| 100 | Therefore , as we humans are running out of energy we can make use of , providing sustainable , green and reliable energy has been crucial for the survival of the whole human society . |
| 101 | However , if a mixture of energy production options is continued , it will impact the environment adversely and cause climate change in the long term . |
| 102 | Nowadays , with the development of our society , more and more energy is consumed by the whole world . |
| 103 | In the next few decades , the demand for energy will definitely increase exponentially as the world population continues to grow . |
| 104 | An energy crisis may break out because people cry for energy but the resources are limited now . |
| 105 | One of the important issues bothering people nowadays is the lack of energy supply and an increase in global warming due to the emission of greenhouse gases from current generation reactors . |
| 106 | From the performance requirements , it becomes apparent that VHTR will eventually be a massive power plant , an outcome that is not favourable for developing countries which are in need of enhanced energy output for economic growth . |
| 107 | Today , we can even say that energy plays the most important role in our daily life and also in supporting our huge society . |
| 108 | Global warming and energy shortage are two of the most discussed topics nowadays . |
| 109 | These figures partly show the urgent necessity to find a feasible alternative energy source which will never become exhausted . |
| 110 | However , in my opinion , one of the main concerns in our society is finding a new energy supply to substitute for the old ones which have been depleted due to human exploitation . |
| 111 | In addition , poor people around the world also need abundant , affordable and modern energy . |
| 112 | In the coming years , human demand for energy will be increasing whereas renewable energy sources are decreasing . |
| 113 | Energy demand each year is rapidly increasing so I do not think alternative energy sources like solar and wind energy can meet that need . |
| 114 | Countries around the globe are all working for a better quality of life , driving up the demand for energy . |
| 115 | As the population 's reliance on technology advances and grows , a greater need for electricity energy to power these computer gadgets has since sparked an inevitable concern as many worry that fossil fuels , being used over the years to generate electricity , are not sufficient enough to accommodate all the needs . |
| 116 | Hence , it is a matter of great urgency to seek an alternative power source . |
| 117 | Another area of concern that is contributing much to the pollution of the environment is energy generation . |
| 118 | It is imperative for us to accept and embrace this new form of technology in order to meet the world 's increasing energy demand . |
| 119 | In brief , the energy problem is one of our most serious problems now . |
| 120 | This is critical as one motive of looking for alternative energy sources is to have a long lasting source ; thus this property should be prioritized . |
| 121 | Secondly , if we do not use nuclear energy , it will cause a serious shortage of fuel , which will lead to the increase the price of electricity . |
| 122 | Things must be done to change this energy system . |
| 123 | Evidently , energy has become vital and indispensable in our life , relating to most of everything we deal with . |
| 124 | One current human need that should be given priority is the search for renewable resources . |
| 125 | With not much fossil fuel left on earth , it is impossible to meet the increasing energy demand which is predicted to double by 2050 in the following years if the energy system keeps its current energy structure . |
| 126 | Today 's energy use has caused adverse environmental problems so energy supply will be far from sufficient for future demands . |
| 127 | However , there is no doubt that the energy demand will continue to increase , since human beings can not slow down the pace of technology development . |
| 128 | Therefore , a stable economy is essential for us to progress in technology and having a more reliable source of energy is the key to it . |
| 129 | History shows the risk of having nuclear plants in the vicinity of our homes , and the need for more of such plants to meet the increasing demands for energy such as electricity will only heighten the danger further . |
| 130 | Electricity is the most important source of energy in modern times . |
| 131 | The rapid development of countries and expansion of population have created a world that is increasingly unable to meet the demand of energy.Additionally , fossil fuel is criticized as the main contributing factor for green house gas effect . |
| 132 | So viewing the present situation in this ominous light , the ultimate solution we get to think of is to find new means to sustain the exploding population . |
| 133 | It is said that the world 's population will expand from the current 6 billion to around 10 billion by the year 2050 ( GIF , 2002 ) , which will push us into an even more serious energy shortage position unless we successfully find new kinds of energy as soon as possible . |
| 134 | The world 's energy consumption is increasing every year . |
| 135 | Therefore , the last decade has witnessed increasing energy prices due to an insufficient supply of energy . |
| 136 | Energy is an important driving force for the world . |
| 137 | And the crisis of shortage of energies has become evident to some extent . |
| 138 | However , the day when people use more electricity than they produce is approaching . |
| 139 | ( U.S. Department Of Energy ) As globalization takes place , coupled with an increasing world population , more electrical energy has to be supplied to homes and factories so as to meet the increasing demand . |
| 140 | But the current requirement of continuous energy supplies have grown so rapidly that many countries focus on exploiting current resources , pushing ourselves to the verge of total depleted resources . |
| 141 | Hence , the research for alternative energy is necessary . |
| 142 | According to Marshall & Robert ( 2000 ) , the rising costs and rapid depletion of natural fuel has led to the search for a more sustainable energy source . |
| 143 | Due to vast development and urbanization in both developed and developing nations , these resources are rapidly depleted to generate electricity in power plants . |
| 144 | In a world where technology has fitted seamlessly , the threat of global warming and rising energy needs which affect the future of our planet has never been greater . |
| 145 | In a time where energy sources are depleting rapidly , a call for new alternate energy has been made by several countries and a large amount of effort and money has been poured into this new cause . |
| 146 | Energy source is the key factor that will affect the development of any country . |
| 147 | Having a glimpse of our life now , we could not live without energy . |
| 148 | Last but not the least , it is still very important to find other cleaner and renewable energy resources . |
| 149 | The world is facing an energy crisis . |
| 150 | Searching for alternative energy sources becomes the main effort of the whole world , especially those industry-developed countries due to the dwindling energy supplies from coal and fuel . |
| 151 | This kind of energy-producing method did make a big contribution to the industrialization of the world , but it also did a lot of harm to the natural environment . |
| 152 | In an era where the scale of our industrial system is growing larger and larger , the consumption of resources becomes an incredible burden on the environment and people start to suffer the consequences . For the destruction and pollution we have done to the environment , a series of social issues concerning engineering and environment have been raised . |
| 153 | ( Southworth ,F ) In order to provide electricity to the masses at an affordable rate , performance of the nuclear reactor is very important . |
| 154 | Energy is one of the biggest problems around the world . |
| 155 | As our earth suffers from the adverse effects of global warming , everyone would probably want to have clean and green electricity . |
| 156 | No one can stand on its own without the support of some kind of energy . |
| 157 | However , the rate of energy consumption by humans is much higher than what nature is able to produce . |
| 158 | at this rate of consumption , our environment will not be able to supply us with sufficient resources years down the road . |
| 159 | This is a concern as at the rate countries are consuming energy it is a matter of time before the earth runs out of natural resources . |
| 160 | As the global economy continues its search for growth , its insatiable appetite for energy has greatly diminished our non-renewable resources . |
| 161 | The current energy pattern contains many dangerous disadvantages . |
| 162 | As a result , nuclear industry has stepped into the degradation , causing the world 's energy crisis . |
| 163 | The world 's energy is going towards depletion , and many countries are seeking alternative energy sources . |
| 164 | Since the earth is experiencing global at a rate never seen before , there is a more urgent need to look into ways which we could cut down on green house gases emissions . |
| 165 | As a result , despite many people in the country needing electrical energy , the country can not supply enough to meet the needs of everyone . |
| 166 | The world 's natural resources are depleting and a clean and renewable energy source is required . |
| 167 | The rising sea level , the increase in natural disasters , the proliferation of pandemics , which are the by-products of industrial development , along with the depletion of fossil fuel , demand a new source of energy . |
| 168 | One of the main human needs of the current millennium would be to have a sustainable environment in view of the rapid progression of our technology . |
| 169 | Therefore , among all the current human needs , the need for energy , i should be given priority . |
| 170 | Thus , preventing accelerated climate change beyond human control is of the greatest priority . |
| 171 | Thus , it can produce a great amount of energy . |
| 172 | Just an hour without electricity would make life intolerable for everyone . |
| 173 | However , it is not likely that they will be able to replace the current infrastructures of fossil fuel generators at a quick rate due to their high start-up costs , and in some cases , their geographical constraints . |
| 174 | If research and development ceased to exist , it would be much harder to take care of the elderly as the world 's aging population is expected to increase from now till 2050 . |
| 175 | Among all of these needs , the most urgent and necessary technologies should be the ones that deal with the effect of global warming . |
| 176 | Primarily , energy is the fundamental base for all human activities which exploit nature to meet our needs . |
| 177 | In order to improve the air condition , consumers had to spend more and compromised on a limited range of electric cars . |
| 178 | Another case in point is America , " They produce much of the electricity that fuels our economic growth . |
| 179 | It should also be able to store higher amounts of energy in order to last for longer periods of time . |
| 180 | As such , one of the main human needs would be to restore balance and lengthen the lifetime of our environment . |
| 181 | However , without enough energy to manufacture the products , how can our desire be satisfied ? |
| 182 | The world depends largely on external energy to operate all activities in the society . |
| 183 | Due to the high poverty rate and low funding from the government , electrical energy is not available in most parts of the country especially in the rural areas . |
| 184 | Furthermore , it would destabilize the society and would potentially cause political instability as people would be unhappy with no electricity in the country . |
| 185 | Hence , more people are seeking greener alternatives . |
| 186 | Nowadays , nuclear technology is widely used as an extra resource for electric generators . |
| 187 | This shows that the design of the power plant was not stable for generating energy . |
| 188 | Therefore , new sources of green energy are needed to prevent this from happening . |
| 189 | We , human beings , have to adapt to a new age of nuclear power and fully exploit it rather than be uneasy and doubtful about this controversial type of energy . |
| 190 | As a result , there is a decrease in efficiency as it is being used many times and loses its capability to generate the same amount of energy . |
| 191 | However , none of these can be the ideal energy to us now due to the technological problems , economic concerns , or potential dangers . |
| 192 | The process of finding a new alternative energy source , which is not only renewable but also environmental-friendly , has been undertaken for a long time and regarded as an ultimate goal for engineering . |
| 193 | Hence , despite being an ideal solution in the long run , alternate energy sources are unable to curb the problem now . |
| 194 | Nowadays , electricity has become a key ingredient in our life . |
| 195 | As the developing countries are building more factories and cities throughout the years , the global energy consumption is rapidly increasing over the years . |
| 196 | With rising economic powers such as China and India , the burning of fossil fuel to meet new energy demand simply will not solve the problem of depleting resources on a long term basis . |
| 197 | Cost will definitely be an issue for the people when using electricity . |
| 198 | It is a well developed energy source . |
| 199 | On the contrary , the mobile phone can not operate without the use of an external power . Normally a battery must be included and charged , so that the mobile phone can be switched on . |
| 200 | Earth is heated up by the Sun 's energy and many believe that the increasing amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere worsen global warming by retaining more heat . |
| 201 | These countries are unable to satisfy their energy needs solely based on the current available avenues for energy sources . |
| 202 | This means that our resources can not meet our increasing demand . |
| 203 | Also , a country can not depend solely on other countries for its energy as it would cause socio-economic problems . |
| 204 | Our prosperous society is built on automatic mass production which requires a large amount of energy . |
| 205 | Third , natural energy resources such as wind energy and wave power can only be used in large countries with sufficient land and water ; thus , small countries may encounter energy dependence on external resources and be forced to pay much more for energy . |
| 206 | The growing energy demand , the tense political situation caused , too much emission of carbon dioxide and the susceptible third world economies all point out this unstainbilty . |
| 207 | It has to be created to fulfil the world 's need nowadays so that our future generation has a healthier earth to live in . |
| 208 | Due to the flourishing of construction industries over the years , construction industries worldwide consume resources equivalent to more than what nature is able to produce on Earth . |
| 209 | " An energy crisis is the shortage of energy accompanied by the fact that now we can not find enough reliable energy as substitute , " a definition of energy crisis given by Prof. McLaren Hill from the University of Edinburgh . |
| 210 | As prediction shows , the two main energy resources will be unable to sustain the industry demands in less than one hundred years time . |
| 211 | ( Exergy Flowcharts ) As a result , many countries in the world are now tapping into this new source of energy . |
| 212 | As a result , starting a war , destroying natural balance and polluting the environment , they are just the side effects of disputing energy resources . |
| 213 | ( Pachauri , 2007 ) Hence , fossil fuels are not a viable means to meet the increasing demand of energy . |
| 214 | Nevertheless , simulating the real-world variation in accomplishing a huge project like constructing an energy efficient transportation system can not be fully comprehensive nor to create a full-scale prototype of the system is even more unrealistic . |
| 215 | So , there should be improvement in every field of study and research to ease the aging population and to enhance the quality of life for a global population that will double in size by 2050 . |
| 216 | It is the energy problem . |
| 217 | We all know that the vehicles are running by the petroleum fuel , because of the rapidly increasing of the petroleum prices due to lacking of the material , and it is predicted will running out in few decades , this issue leads us to look for a new material to replace petroleum has become enthusiastic among the engineering fields . |
| 218 | For many years , people have always been trying to develop technological innovations which are environmentally friendly . |
| 219 | Therefore , uranium will soon deplete and we will need to search for a new form of energy supply . |
| 220 | So any engineering process can be continuously modified into a faster , better and greener one . |
| 221 | Therefore , the world is turning its head towards 'green ' technology as a solution to the above crisis . |

| 0 | After the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island nuclear accidents , which took away many innocent lives due to the explosions as well as exposure to excessive radiation , people are now very concerned about the safety of nuclear plants . |
|---|---|
| 1 | The catastrophic nuclear accidents such as Three Mile Island event and Chernobyl accident have cast a shadow over the safety of nuclear plants . |
| 2 | The Chernobyl accident in 1986 and Three Mile Island in 1979 have led to serious concerns about the safety of nuclear power plants . |
| 3 | This raises public concern , due to the previous nuclear accidents which happened at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl , in 1979 and 1986 separately . |
| 4 | This is seen in the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island in 1979 followed by the Chernobyl accident in 1986 , which have reinforced fears of nuclear power in the people . |
| 5 | Opponents of the public of nuclear energy are worried about the safety of nuclear power in the wake of the Three Mile Island accident in 1979 and the Chernobyl accident in 1986 . |
| 6 | The Chernobyl disaster is one of the nuclear power plant accidents that remind people about how dangerous nuclear reaction can be . |
| 7 | Many people 's main fear of nuclear comes from the several nuclear accidents in the last few decades , such as the Three Mail Island one in 1979 and the Chernobyl one in 1986 . |
| 8 | Their concern arises because of a few incidents that have happened in the past which includes a partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and also the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , where the reactor core exploded and caused the death of 31 people and spewed radioactive debris across Europe ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 9 | With memories of the partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , and of the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , during which the reactor core exploded , killing some 31 people immediately and spewing radioactive debris across Europe , the public consider nuclear reactors as something extremely dangerous . |
| 10 | Ever since the partial reactor meltdown at Three Mile Island in 1979 and the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986 , the public feared that any similar incidents would have grave consequences to the people living around nuclear power plants . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Safety issue is definitely a concern as the history of the Three Mile Island in 1979 and the Chernobyl incident in 1986 has left a long lasting bad impression of nuclear plants . |
| 12 | Reviewing the history , the Chernobyl and the Three Mile Island catastrophes indeed witnessed the enormous harm the nuclear reactor could cause . |
| 13 | However the scars left from the Chernobyl disaster and the Three Mile Island catastrophe has changed the public opinion on nuclear reactors for the worse . |
| 14 | Past events such as the incident in Chernobyl serve as a grim reminder of the dangers that come with a nuclear reactor . |
| 15 | However , given memories of the partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and of the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , during which the reactor core exploded , killing some 31 people instantly and spreading radioactive debris across Europe ( Butler , 2004 ) , the public is concerned about the safety of the VHTR . |
| 16 | The Chernobyl ( 1986 ) and Three Mile Island ( 1979 ) accidents are frightening examples of how devastating a nuclear accident can be . |
| 17 | In 1986 , the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine exploded , resulting in a massive power explosion and many deaths caused by radiation poisoning . |
| 18 | The disaster that happened at Chernobyl , Ukraine , in 1986 is one reason for the public 's anxiety . |
| 19 | This is partly due to the negative memories from the 1986 reactor core explosion at Chernobyl in Ukraine , which resulted in the instant death of 31 people and radioactive debris spewed across Europe ( Bulter , 2004 ) . |
| 20 | This was partly due to the 1979 incident at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania where a partial reactor meltdown occurred , and the 1986 incident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , where the reactor core exploded , which resulted in casualties and spewing harmful debris across Europe ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 21 | The controversy is that some people believe that all nuclear reactors bring disasters after the accidents in Chernobyl in 1986 and the accident in the Three Mile Island in 1979 . |
| 22 | Moreover , tragic nuclear accidents in the past , such as the ones in Chernobyl , Ukraine and Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , leave people in doubt over the safety of building new nuclear reactors . |
| 23 | For instance , one of the most tragic accidents involving radiation release was the Chernobyl disaster which happened in 1986 . |
| 24 | Nuclear energy has been a topic of discussion among the society given the memories of the partial nuclear meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , during which the reactor core exploded ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 25 | There is no denying that nuclear energy is a dangerous source of energy and an example is the Chernobyl accident in 1986 . |
| 26 | Until today , opponents of nuclear power have argued on the potential dangers which might be caused by nuclear reactors in the light of major engineering accidents such as partial rector meltdown at Three Mile Island and the explosion of reactor core at Chernobyl in Ukraine . |
| 27 | This kind of great disasters did happen in the history ( Three Mile Island and Chernobyl ) , and resulted in many people losing confidence in nuclear energy . |
| 28 | To the mind of opponents of nuclear power , the construction of nuclear power plants will put Mother Earth under threat as nuclear accidents , such as the notorious Chernobyl in year 1986 , can cause massive destruction to the environment and more importantly , they are inevitable . |
| 29 | However , after two significant accidents , Three Mile Island and Chernobyl , most people are worried about the safety factor of nuclear reactor plans . |
| 30 | Some accidents of nuclear power plants , such as the Chernobyl disaster which occurred on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant , caused huge panic about the nuclear power plant . |
| 31 | People nowadays have fierce controversy over the use of nuclear power due to the appalling nuclear accidents which occurred at Three Mile island and Chernobyl , or even the recent nuclear accident at Sellafield , England . |
| 32 | After the Chernobyl accident , one would commonly assume that nuclear reactors are extremely hazardous . |
| 33 | On 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine , there was a nuclear reactor accident which resulted in the deaths of many due to radiation poisoning . |
| 34 | Firstly , the reactor meltdown accident in Chernobyl , 1986 has became a reason to prove that nuclear power is dangerous and should not be encouraged . |
| 35 | Some people claim that the chances of accidents at nuclear reactor plants are very low because of advanced technology.However , the accident at the Three Mile Island Unit2 nuclear power plant which has been the most serious in the US , as well as the explosion at the Chernobyl power station , prove that nuclear reactors are still dangerous and not 100 percent secure . |
| 36 | This is because the Chernobyl accident caused many direct fatalities in the explosion and future fatalities due to the effects of nuclear radiation . |
| 37 | An example of such an accident is the " the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , during which the reactor core exploded , ( killed ) some 31 people immediately and ( spew ) radioactive debris across Europe . |
| 38 | The result of Chernobyl accident is disastrous as the radioactive debris spread across Europe and affected many people in different countries . |
| 39 | They give the Chernobyl nuclear accident as an example to show how dangerous it is to build such plants . |
| 40 | The public being nuclear-averse is also the result of the past accidents at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl in Pennsylvania and Ukraine respectively . |
| 41 | Firstly , public citizens argue that future nuclear reactors like the VHTR are too risky to rely on due to events like the Three Mile Island and the Chernobyl disaster . |
| 42 | Public opinion is against the construction of nuclear reactors due to the partial reactor meltdown accident in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 43 | After seeing the incidents at the 3 Mile Island and Chernobyl , people are worried about having a nuclear reactor in their country and have questioned the safety of the Generation IV reactors . |
| 44 | Issues being discussed are the safety of operating the nuclear reactor as there have been catastrophic events in the past like the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl disasters ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 45 | The Chernobyl accident that happened in 1986 had caused people to resent the development of nuclear power . |
| 46 | The usage of nuclear plants to generate electricity has been a controversial issue since decades ago , due to the disastrous incidents on Three Miles Island and at Chernobyl , which have resulted in major health issues caused by radiation exposure . |
| 47 | A serious disaster is usually caused by a series of events such as the case with Chernobyl . |
| 48 | Unfortunately , the development is not aided by nuclear disasters , such as the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 and the Three Mile Island disaster in 1979 , which are two of the most serious accidents which happened in nuclear power plants . |
| 49 | The Chernobyl accident caused a huge number of deaths and radiation-related injuries . |
| 50 | According to Thinkquest , their worries are not unfounded as the lapse in safety of nuclear reactors led to two devastating nuclear accidents which happened on Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , in 1979 and at Chernobyl in Ukraine in 1986 . |
| 51 | In 1979 , there was the partial reactor meltdown at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania ; in 1986 , the tragedy occurred at Chernobyl , Ukraine . In this case , , the core of the reactor exploded , 31 people were killed on the spot and radioactive debris spouted and spread over Europe ( NATURE , VOL429 , 2004 ) . Opponents of nuclear reactors being built claim that it is very dangerous for nuclear reactors ' operation . |
| 52 | Some people have the impression from the two major incidents which happened in Chernobyl , Ukraine and the Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania that nuclear reactors are dangerous and so are against the idea of having nuclear reactors . |
| 53 | The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 in Ukraine was not the only major accident that gave devastating impact to Russia . |
| 54 | The reason why the public reject the idea of nuclear power could be due to the Chernobyl power plant meltdown , one of the most tragic nuclear-related disasters in human history . |
| 55 | The incidents of core melt-down at Three Mile Island in March 1979 and the explosion and fire at Chernobyl in April cast a melancholy over the nuclear industry and it raised public fear of catastrophe . |
| 56 | Many major engineering accidents have occurred around the world such as the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl accidents . |
| 57 | Nuclear accidents like the Three Mile incident and the Chernobyl disaster left a bad aftertaste in the eyes of the public . |
| 58 | Nuclear incidents such as the one at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania in 1979 and the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in Ukraine in 1986 ( where large amounts of radioactive material was released into the atmosphere , causing numerous deaths and genetic diseases ) instigated fear of the possibility of such disasters occurring elsewhere . |
| 59 | One typical example is the Chernobyl accident in Ukraine in 1986 , which resulted from a flawed reactor design . |
| 60 | The Chernobyl Accident , the most notorious disaster of nuclear history , took place on 26th April 1986 at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine , and released a considerable amount of radio-nuclides over a large neighboring area . |
| 61 | According to Butler ( 2004 ) , " the partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , and the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine " have convinced the public that nuclear technology is extremely dangerous . |
| 62 | The Chernobyl nuclear accident , which occurred on 26 April 1986 , had resulted in massive radioactive fallout into the atmosphere that affected millions of people . |
| 63 | However , looking at the incident of partial reactor meltdown in 1979 , which took place at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , and the notorious nuclear accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine in 1986 ( Butler,2004 ) , people may rethink the statements they have made . |
| 64 | In the history , there have been cases such as the Chernobyl nuclear reactor explosion and the Three Mile Island accident , which were catastrophes caused by the misuse of nuclear power . |
| 65 | In 1986 , the worst nuclear accident in history broke out in Chernobyl . |
| 66 | Firstly , the critics claim that the operation of nuclear plant is dangerous because of the only one accident which happened in Chernobyl in history . |
| 67 | However , some people have lost their confidence in nuclear power development after the occurrence of nuclear disasters in Three Mile Island and Chernobyl . |
| 68 | The first reason some people are afraid of nuclear energy is because they can not get rid of the influence of accidents like Chernobyl and Three Mile Island ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 69 | When talking about the most serious accident ever in nuclear power history , the 1986 Chernobyl Accident will come to everyone 's mind ( UNSCEAR , 2009 ) . |
| 70 | In addition , opponents are also concerned about the safety of the reactor especially when they recall the Chernobyl nuclear accident . |
| 71 | The nuclear reactor meltdown in Chernobyl in the year 1986 has became a dark age in the implementation of nuclear power . |
| 72 | Even though it gained popularity in the 1970s , the partial meltdown of the nuclear power plant 's core on Three Mile Island in 1979 and Chernobyl explosion in 1986 had a serious taint on the popularity of the use of nuclear energy as an energy source . |
| 73 | Their concern is understandable , since the nuclear catastrophe which happened in Chernobyl on 26 April 1986 is still fresh in our mind . |
| 74 | They worry that the will replay the accidents on the Three Mile Island on March 28 , 1979 and at Chernobyl on April 26 , 1986 ( " Nuclear Disasters and Accidents " ) . |
| 75 | A very famous accident , which is also used by the public to oppose building nuclear reactors , is the accident at Chernobyl which happened on 26 April 1986 . |
| 76 | For instance , the Chernobyl accident is still causing deaths years after the accident , with victims mainly dying from cancer caused by exposure to radiation from the highly radioactive waste products released after the massive steam explosion , which occurred due to system flaws , and a second non-nuclear explosion ( International Atomic Energy Agency , 2006 ) . |
| 77 | The Chernobyl accident was inevitable due to the various faults made in the different levels of the management of the plant and political factors , and this accident did provide an important lesson for both the human engineering and nuclear power world . |
| 78 | This is partially because of the left by the disasters of 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , and of 1986 at Chernobyl , Ukraine ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 79 | Chernobyl nuclear accident is one of the most terrible disasters in the history of engineering development . |
| 80 | Next , Butler ( 2004 ) states that incidents such as the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island which occurred years ago , highly traumatized the public , thus casting doubts on the performance of the new generation IV nuclear reactors being proposed by the GIF . |
| 81 | There was a partial meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island and there was also an accident in at Chernobyl , causing casualties and spewing radioactive waste across Europe . |
| 82 | The world is concerned with the safety of nuclear power plants and the possibility of nuclear arms proliferation . Past incidents at Chernobyl and Three Mile Island ( Bodansky , 2005 ) have left many in doubt about the technology . |
| 83 | The public may not trust the ability of scientists and researchers to ensure their safety since they still remember the nuclear power accidents at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania and at Chernobyl in Ukraine which caused many people to die ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 84 | The Chernobyl incident on 26 April 1986 at Soviet Union was one of the most tragic catastrophes . |
| 85 | Very few nuclear reactors have been built in the past few decades as the general public is extremely concern about its safe operation , especially after the accidents at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl which sent fear and created negative opinions on nuclear power among the public . |
| 86 | The reactor core explosion at Chernobyl in Ukraine was a catastrophic failure . |
| 87 | The major reactor meltdown happened in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and in 1986 at Chernobyl , Ukraine . |
| 88 | After the Chernobyl accident , many scientists predicted that the radiation exposure of that incident would have caused a million deaths hence causing panic and hysteria among the public which eventually made nuclear energy unpopular . |
| 89 | The nineteen-eighty-six Chernobyl accident killed thirty- one people and resulted in significant damage to environment and population health in large parts of Europe . |
| 90 | In 1986 , the world 's worst nuclear accident Chernobyl took place in Ukraine . |
| 91 | Given the memories of the two accidents which happened in 1979 at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania and in 1986 at Chernobyl of Ukraine , some people may still have not recovered from the great horror when they hear nuclear power . |
| 92 | After the catastrophe that happened at Chernobyl , Russia 1986 , the World start to be concerned more carefully about the safety and security of nuclear power reactors . |
| 93 | The Chernobyl disaster , especially , exposed millions of people to radioactive chemicals and has been linked to many forms of cancer in Eastern Europe and Russia , as well as destroyed animals and plants . |
| 94 | The danger of radioactivity is always imminent as critics often refer to the nuclear accident in Chernobyl that resulted in many deaths and serious repercussions such as unnatural births many years after the accident . |
| 95 | It is to assume that people are concerned a lot about safety since the Chernobyl accident and Three Mile Island accident happened . |
| 96 | However , the possibility of a core meltdown can not be denied judging from the accidents like Three Miles Island and Chernobyl ( Butler,2004 ) . |
| 97 | The Chernobyl explosion is one example showing the seriousness of those dangers . |
| 98 | The Chernobyl accident that happened on 26 April 1986 , has led everyone to realize the damages and consequences that we might face when we build a nuclear power plant . |
| 99 | The Chernobyl accident gave people a big shock . |
| 100 | One of the most famous accidents -- the Chernobyl accident that occurred on 26 April 1986 in the Soviet Ukraine -- is a typical type of engineering accident . |
| 101 | The commercial nuclear power industry witnessed the worst nuclear power plant accident in its history in Chernobyl . |
| 102 | This coupled with the Three Mile Island accident has left the public to view the nuclear reactors as highly dangerous . |
| 103 | Opponents of nuclear power claim that nuclear reactors are totally insecure as the incidents of Three Miles Island and Chernobyl led to catastrophes . |
| 104 | When the Chernobyl accident occurred in 1986 , thirty-one people were killed immediately and many more died due to the radiation-related effects of the accident ( " Chernobyl Accident " , 2009 ) . |
| 105 | Chernobyl was not the only serious nuclear plant accident in the past . |
| 106 | Chernobyl disaster is a classic example which happened in 1986 at Chernobyl in Ukraine . |
| 107 | However in the 1970s , nuclear accidents at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl stirred up a big controversy over nuclear power and practically halted the development of nuclear power in many countries ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 108 | An example will be the 1986 core explosion at Chernobyl in Ukraine , in which 31 people were killed immediately and many more after years because of radioactive contamination . |
| 109 | After the Chernobyl accident in 1986 and Three Miles accident in 1979 ( Think quest , May 2007 ) many people fear the word " nuclear energy " , but if we consider the number of accidents since the commencement of operations of the world 's first nuclear power plant in the year 1954 ( Think quest , May 2007 ) , it is only a handful . |
| 110 | But after the terrible partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island and the 1986 accident at Chernobyl , nuclear power gradually has gone out of the public 's sight . |
| 111 | There were nuclear accident hazards all over the world a few decades ago ; for example , the reactor core explosion at Chernobyl in Ukraine killed many people , with two people dying in the initial explosion and other deaths resulting from radiation poisoning ( Gramling , 2009 ) . |
| 112 | The result was a series of engineering accidents : Three Mile Island , Chernobyl , the Challenger and more . |
| 113 | Chernobyl , Ukraine is the location of the most fatal nuclear accident that happened on April 26 , 1986 . |
| 114 | The public resists to nuclear energy due to the aftermath of the incidents at Three Mile Island in 1979 and Chernobyl in 1986 . |
| 115 | On 26th April 1986 , a severe reactor 's meltdown occurred in Chernobyl nuclear plant , Ukraine which released more radioactivity compared to the time when atom bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki . |
| 116 | Chernobyl nuclear plant explosion is one of the incidents occurred on 26 April 1986 . |
| 117 | The Chernobyl disaster was a major engineering accident that occurred in the year 1986 . |
| 118 | On 26 April 1986 , a catastrophic disaster , which destroyed the city and killed 30 people in a few seconds , fell on Chernobyl . |
| 119 | For example , two incidents-an accident in 1979 in which the reactor core lost coolant and partially melted , and the 1986 catastrophe in which a reactor exploded and released radioactivity into the atmosphere ( Sandra M ) greatly increased concerns about the safety of nuclear power . |
| 120 | The only issue that stands in the way of the government turning towards this alternative is the memories of past incidents such as the 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , and the partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania ( Butler , 2004 , para.4 ) . |
| 121 | The Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986 illustrates this notion . |
| 122 | However , public opposition has been evident ever since Chernobyl and Three Mile incidents , which had exposed the potential danger of nuclear reactors ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 123 | The Chernobyl accident , which happened in 1986 , was a nuclear reactor accident . |
| 124 | The poorly designed reactor contributed to the Chernobyl accident as well . |
| 125 | When the Chernobyl Accident occurred , the poor communication and interaction between different departments of the nuclear plant made it even worse than it might otherwise have been . |
| 126 | Nuclear plants have come a long way since the early days and the world has witnessed two major accidents , the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island Incident . |
| 127 | From past experiences on nuclear power plants , memories of accidents of partial reactor meltdown in 1979 and explosion of reactor core in 1986 would only cause the public to be more sceptical towards them . |
| 128 | The Chernobyl disaster is one of the worst engineering accidents that has ever happened in history . |
| 129 | Since the Chernobyl accident has left a shameful scar on the history of nuclear power usage , it is understandable why some people think that living near to a nuclear power plant is equal to having a bomb buried in the back yard . |
| 130 | One example will be the Chernobyl disaster which occurred in 1986 during a non-routine operation . |
| 131 | In addition , the nuclear accident which happens on Three Mile Island causes the people to lose confidence for nuclear research . |
| 132 | Similar to the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island accident , most nuclear accidents are consequences of human errors . |
| 133 | Within the past half century , two major accidents at the Chernobyl and the Three Mile Island nuclear power plants have caused the public to have a negative view of the operation of nuclear reactors and also , the future of nuclear energy generation . |
| 134 | Even after these many safety features , as mentioned above , it is hard for lay men to get over the dreadful accidents that took place in the Three Mile Island in 1979 and Chernobyl in 1986 . |
| 135 | For instance , in 1986 , a nuclear powerhouse in Soviet Union exploded , which destroyed many buildings and claimed many people 's lives . |
| 136 | Many skeptics oppose the idea of building nuclear reactors as they fear that a similar incident to that in Chernobyl might happen again . |
| 137 | The Chernobyl accident in 1986 was a reminder of the importance of safety . |
| 138 | According to Butler , safety is a main priority in the designs of new nuclear reactors due to the previous nuclear disasters of Three Mile Island and Chernobyl . |
| 139 | For instance , about a decade before the Chernobyl Accident , a nuclear accident occurred on Three Mile Island , in which the technical cause was also the water cooling system ( WNA , 2001 ) . |
| 140 | Apart from the Chernobyl accident , and subsequent major accidents , radiation released during normal operation have been found to be almost undetectable as compared to natural background radiation ( Gabbard , n.d ) . |
| 141 | We can not prevent the public from having their biased and negative perspective on nuclear power but we can not deny the fact that the Chernobyl disaster is a result of poor management and design of the power plant ( Case details : Chernobyl accident ( n.d ) ) . |
| 142 | In conclusion , the main factors that resulted in the Chernobyl disaster are the negligence of the operators , the flawed reactor designed and other external factors such as the pressure faced by the operators . |
| 143 | However , the nuclear leak incidents which happened in the past few decades in countries such as Three Miles Island , Pennsylvania , Chernobyl in Ukraine , and Bhopal in India have posed doubts on the reliability of the nuclear reactors . |
| 144 | For instance , it was shown from the Chernobyl incident that an explosion in a nuclear plant would cause cancerous effects on human beings , and this effect would last for a few centuries |
| 145 | Public opposition is even more intense after the accidents at Three Mile Island [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.pddoc.com/tmi2/kemeny/ ] and Chernobyl . |
| 146 | Public opposition regarding the issue of nuclear technology has been evident ever since the Chernobyl and Three Mile accidents . |
| 147 | As much as there are many positive reasons to use nuclear power , many people still have their doubts about this source of energy , mainly due to the fact that they remember the infamous Chernobyl incident and the atomic bombs of World War Two . |
| 148 | Three Mile Island and Chernobyl : What went wrong and why today 's reactors are safe . |
| 149 | The ramification of the Chernobyl incident is so severe to the extent that it reminds everyone of death when nuclear power is mentioned . |
| 150 | After the Three Mile Island Explosion people have had bad impression of nuclear energy . |
| 151 | Oppositions have very good reasons to go against nuclear reactor development especially after the 911 incident and the Chernobyl disaster . |
| 152 | Major accidents besides Zeebrugge such as the 'Three Mile Island ' incident and the 'Chernobyl 'disaster are said to be caused by human error . |
| 153 | Unfortunately for nuclear power plants , the Chernobyl nuclear incident has convinced the public to not support nuclear plants . |
| 154 | For example , on April 26th 1986 , the leak and explosion in the nuclear power plants of Chernobyl ( Butler , 2004 ) . |
| 155 | Firstly , despite the safety of MSRs , one can never forget the devastating Chernobyl incident in April 1986 . |
| 156 | After the partial reacter meltdown in 1979 at Pennsylvania and the 1986 accident in Chernobyl . |
| 157 | [ Greenpeace International , 2009 ] Nonetheless , the Chernobyl accident was an outcome due to an old technology and poor management in the past . |
| 158 | According to Butler ( 2004 ) , partial reactor melted down in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania , and 1986 accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine , during which the reactor core exploded , killing some 31 people immediately |
| 159 | According to Bulter ( 2004 ) , the public has highlighted the accidents which occurred in 1979 at Three Mile Island and in 1986 at Chernobyl . |
| 160 | The Chernobyl disaster has been described as 'the greatest technological catastrophe in human history' . |
| 161 | One major nuclear incident was that in Chernobyl CITATION Dav04 \ l 1033 ( Bodansky , 2004 ) . |
| 162 | The meltdowns at Three Mile Island ( TMI ) in Pennsylvania and Chernobyl accident in 1986 both were caused by design errors ; it was not really the nuclear reactors ' fault . |
| 163 | Such disastrous events also happened in Pennsylvania and the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the Soviet Union . |
| 164 | Three Mile Island and Chernobyl : What Went Wrong and Why Today 's Reactors Are Safe . |
| 165 | These thoughts are due to the history of some nuclear accidents , for example , the meltdown of a nuclear plant at Three Miles Island in Pennsylvania . |
| 166 | " Nuclear energy would be dominant source of energy by now if it had n't been Chernobyl and Three Miles island . |
| 167 | This accident happened on April 26 , 1986 , when the Number 4 reactor of the nuclear power plant in the Soviet Ukraine exploded . |
| 168 | After the Chernobyl disaster in Soviet Union , many people started to reject the proposal of wide usage of nuclear power . |
| 169 | Granted , we can not deny their impact , such as the Chernobyl and Three Mile Island accidents , but the new technology can eliminate the possibility of these accidents . |
| 170 | The incident at Chernobyl , Ukraine serves as a good reminder as to why safety is of utmost importance . |
| 171 | In The Truth about Chernobyl , the author , Medvedev ( 1991 ) , notes that one of the reasons which caused Chernobyl accident is the inadequate operators with insufficient knowledge operating the reactor inappropriately . |
| 172 | As seen from the recent Chernobyl accident , many people were killed and injured , and many were adversely affected by the nuclear materials that were left behind for close to a decade . |
| 173 | In the case of Chernobyl , the plant operators failed to make the right decision which then caused the reactor to explode . |
| 174 | This has been illustrated by the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl accident . |
| 175 | The Three Mile Island accident and Chernobyl accident are evidence of their claims . |
| 176 | We can not deny it ; for example , on 26th of April , 1986 , the nuclear reactor in Chernobyl , Ukraine leaked and exploded . |
| 177 | One nuclear accident was the Chernobyl accident in 1986 . |
| 178 | The meltdown at Three Mile Island ( TMI ) can be considered as the biggest engineering accident in the U.S. nuclear history ( U.S.NRC , 2009 ) . |
| 179 | However , the Chernobyl reactor , reactor bolshoy moshchnosti kanalniy ( RBMK ) , was designed with problems of all these three aspects . |
| 180 | There was another nuclear plant accident in Three Mile Island in the US . |
| 181 | People oppose research on nuclear power because they do not want to see the Chernobyl tragedy happening again . |
| 182 | Haunted by the memories of the catastrophe at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania and Chernobyl in Ukraine , the public requires some convincing ( Butler , 2004 , p. 238 ) . |
| 183 | On April 26 , 1986 , one of the four nuclear reactors at the Chernobyl power station , Ukraine , exploded . |
| 184 | As nuclear accidents can be devastating such as the Chernobyl incident , we need to carefully select people to work in nuclear plants . |
| 185 | As the generators are designed to operate at temperatures up to 1000 Degree Celsius , prevention of a reactor meltdown would be important as a repeat of the Chernobyl disaster during the year 1986 would not be acceptable . |
| 186 | The two main accidents cited by the opponents are the Chernobyl accident and the accident in the three-mile Island . |
| 187 | In conclusion , Chernobyl is the result of flawed design of reactor and inappropriate operation by inadequate operators . |
| 188 | One unmistakable example is the 1986 Chernobyl disaster . |
| 189 | Stemming from a simple experiment by engineers to test the cooling pump system when there is no power supply , the series of events that followed snowballed into the better known Chernobyl disaster . |
| 190 | Ever since the Chernobyl accident , many fear that history will repeat itself . |
| 191 | It is still remember that in 1979 at Three Mile Island , the reactor exploded and killed 31 at once and spewed radioactive across Europe . |
| 192 | They happened in Three Mile Island and Chernobyl . |
| 193 | ( Ball , 2001 ) We can not deny the fact that nuclear disasters have happened in the past such as Chernobyl disaster in 1986 . |
| 194 | Moreover , ever since the Chernobyl accident which happened in 1986 , the standards for safety in nuclear reactors have greatly increased . |
| 195 | Although we should never forget the painful lessons of Chernobyl and Three Mile Island , we should also be open-minded about the possibilities that generation IV nuclear reactors bring . |
| 196 | The reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania seems to show that nuclear power technology is extremely dangerous to use . |
| 197 | The Three Mile Island accident occurred Pennsylvania ; The Chernobyl accident happened in Ukraine . |
| 198 | During the Chernobyl incident the plant was blown apart in a very short time and 31 deaths were caused immediately . |
| 199 | Another famous example is the accident which happened at the nuclear power station at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania on 28 March 1979 . |
| 200 | However , like all the other accidents of the same nature , namely accidents of the complex high hazard systems , the Chernobyl Accident was not the consequence of a single error , but of a combination of the failure of various factors ( Wilpert , 2007 ) . |
| 201 | Medvedev ( 1991 ) mentions in his book that the RBMK reactor in Chernobyl had a dangerously large positive void coefficient and a defect in the design of the reactor protection and control system . |
| 202 | For instance , the careless operation and the designing flaw in Chernobyl gave rise to countless deaths and homelessness . |
| 203 | Mention nuclear power and the general consensus are fear and rejection , and Chernobyl comes to mind . |
| 204 | This includes the mistakes made by the Chernobyl nuclear plant operators . |
| 205 | The first thing working against them was that another power plant on the circuit was down , so Chernobyl was producing more power than usual to compensate for it . |
| 206 | The Chernobyl and Three Mile Island incidents are no different from a normal technical error . |
| 207 | The Chernobyl accident happened on April 26 , 1986 . |
| 208 | On the fateful day of April 26 , 1986 , one of the reactors exploded , consequently causing the area to be inhabitable till this day and instantly claiming 4 lives in the process . |
| 209 | The result of the explosion has been linked to many forms of cancer in Eastern Europe and Russia , as well as to the destruction of animals and plants . |
| 210 | Firstly , the Chernobyl RBMK-1000 reactor got a dangerous positive void coefficient . |
| 211 | On April 26th 1986 , the Chernobyl nuclear reactor exploded . The whole town was evacuated and almost all of them never returned . |
| 212 | On March 28 , 1979 , a partial meltdown happened at the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant . |
| 213 | 28 , 1979 , the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant experienced a partial meltdown . |
| 214 | Vivid in people 's minds is the partial reactor meltdown in 1979 at Three Mile Island , Pennsylvania . |
| 215 | 26 April 1986 marked the day when the lives of many in Ukraine changed forever . |
| 216 | ( March 28 , 2009 ) On This Day : Nuclear Meltdown Occurs at Three Mile Island . |
| 217 | Many antinuclear groups such as the Greenpeace organizations have sprung up overnight to rally against the development of nuclear power for the fear of the recurrence of such nuclear catastrophe . |

| 5 | In short , later retirement can help the elderly to accumulate more wealth to support themselves , maintain health and find new purposes of life so that they are less dependent on others . |
| 6 | It can ease the aging problem without giving burden on the government and poor people . |
| 7 | With this accumulated wealth , they will then be able to meet their basic needs and be less dependent on the government when they retire from the workforce . |
| 8 | With CPF , the eldly have money for life after retirement without extra financial help from the government , thus the implementation of CPF alleviates the government 's financial problem , and it is also favored by the rest of the society since they do not have to pay for the expenditures of the eldly after retirement . |
| 9 | When the economy grows , fewer old persons need to be helped because of the following reasons . |
| 10 | In this way , the aged would not be too dependent on family and the state for financial assistance . |
|---|---|
| 11 | The elderly , who prepare well and early for old age will be more ready for retirement , then the present generations of people will be able to enjoy meaningful and happy lives without relying or putting a burden on their children . |
| 12 | Hence , the investments in other areas of the country 's development would not be at the expense of the needs of the elderly ; in actual fact , they could create a win-win situation . |
| 13 | These enable the aged to lead a better quality life without being anxious over financial difficulties . |
| 14 | If the society is well-prepared , the younger generation does not have to worry about their own welfare when they turn old . |
| 15 | This approach taken by the government would enable the individuals to accumulate wealth , and hence depend less on their family and the government financially in their twilight years . |
| 16 | This policy provides for financial security for the elderly as they would be financially dependent , and need not rely on public initiatives or their children for money in their golden years . |
| 17 | With the increased revenue , this reduces the limitation of support given to the elderly , without taxing on the government resources . |
| 18 | Therefore , having a sturdy economy will also incur less financial costs on elderly welfare . |
| 19 | This would reduce the reliance of the elderly on their families , and thus help to relieve the burden on their family members as they do not have to constantly attend to the needs of the elderly . |
| 20 | Having the children support their own parents will mean less dependency on the government . |
| 21 | This will reduce the burden on the government as the government is no longer required to look after the basic necessities of the aged if they were able to be independent and self-reliant in meeting the needs of their daily lives . |
| 22 | Since there is economic growth , the government would have more resources and hence require less taxes , and as a consequence a family would be able to increase its spending on its older members . |
| 23 | There would thus be few problems of starving and dying elderly or homeless elderly , as they would have money to back them up . |
| 24 | This is because people will have more spare money to help the needy and government will not need to increase taxations . |
| 25 | This proves that it is not necessary for the government to increase their budget on the aged if their aged population are able to cope financially . |
| 26 | This would reduce their dependence on children or government to support them and not hinder the growth of other areas of the country 's development , as these other areas currently receive fewer funds due to the increasing amount of funds being diverted into helping the growing aged population . |
| 27 | With such policies , the aged are ensured that they would have enough assets to remain self reliant and not be dependent on the government . |
| 28 | By having this policy , older workers have become people who contribute to the society and not a a burden of country . |
| 29 | As one ages , they need not suffer the torment of illness as the previous generations did , and are able to spend more time on other meaningful activities . |
| 30 | Not all the aged need financial help as these people may well be taken care of by their children . |
| 31 | What we could conclude from this is that he will be able to save more for his retirement and thus the need to depend on others such as government agencies or family members will be reduced . |
| 32 | Opponents of this position argued that there is no need to divert too much resources to the elderly because they are no longer contributing to the society . |
| 33 | Therefore , the elderly could benefit from the greater availability of assistance without jeopardising economic progress . |
| 34 | The CPF policy has seen tremendous success in providing people with sufficient income for future use , and it certainly has lessened the impact that the ageing process has brought about . |
| 35 | This will not only help the current aged , it will also enable the present generation to be able to enjoy healthy and fulfilling lives into their sunset years without putting a heavy burden on their children and grandchildren . |
| 36 | Being able to take care of themselves is very important as this greatly decreases their dependence on others and hence reduces their burden on their children and the elderly will not feel that they are useless by not being independent . |
| 37 | As a result , elderly individuals can enjoy their retirement without having many financial worries . |
| 38 | This is to ensure that people will not face financial problems when they retire . |
| 39 | With the elderly returning to the workforce , they will be less dependent on the government subsidies and thus , less funds should be set aside for the elderly . |
| 40 | These also allow the elderly to be independent as they no longer need to rely on others ' help in their daily life . |
| 41 | Therefore , when they age , they will not be very dependent on the government , which thus can divert funds into other important development plans . |
| 42 | Retirees probably do not need too much money ; the main things they want at their age are to be satisfied , to live healthily with their family and to help their offspring to be more experienced . |
| 43 | On top of that , producing more children also means that it enables the future generations to better distribute their social responsibilities in the context of fulfilling their filial obligations , resulting in lesser elder dependency on the government . |
| 44 | This means that people will not see the need to save for retirement funds or work to be financially secure , as they know they can depend on the government . |
| 45 | In this way , the welfare of the elderly will be taken care of by their families and the number of homeless elderly will be lessened . |
| 46 | The aged can then be independent and they do not need to rely on their children for money . |
| 47 | It is possible that in future , aging effects can be diminished to so low a level that the elderly could enjoy healthy and fulfilling lives into their twilight years , without being a heavy burden on their children and grandchildren . |
| 48 | Thus , it not only eliminates danger for such elderly people , but also reduces the worry and effort for their families . |
| 49 | In turn , the government will not need to set aside huge resources for the aged , and will be able to divert these resources into other areas of the country 's development . |
| 50 | Therefore , the aging population would be less of a burden to many politicians on how to allocate the national budget every year to cope with the problem . |
| 51 | Firstly , the aged do not need much public spending as it is now . |
| 52 | Besides , this can also lead to less dependency on their children and money from government . |
| 53 | This gives people a sense of security in their twilight years as they are now able to enjoy their lives without much financial worries . |
| 54 | Through these , the elderly not only will be able to continue working ; they also need not worry much about their health expenses . |
| 55 | At the same time , the economy benefits from it since there will be fewer costly social issues . |
| 56 | After many years of hard work , people can now enjoy their lives without having to worry about financial difficulties . |
| 57 | With enough money saved or invested during the years of work , the elderly become less dependent on financial aids from governments . |
| 58 | This would ensure that each citizen would have some amount of money to fall back on when they retire and would in turn lessen the needs for subsidies or help from the government . |
| 59 | Therefore , they would not have to strain their pockets to pay for their health care when they have already stopped working . |
| 60 | Thus , there need not be more burdens on the family and the community brought about by the ageing process . |
| 61 | It can be said that aging could be supported by oneself or by one 's children and hence the need for public spending would be reduced . |
| 62 | Many elderly are still able to work and support themselves , thus they do n't need the help of the government . |
| 63 | This may indirectly help them to think and spend wisely in their future so that they are less dependent on the government as their future is financially secured . |
| 64 | Also , they will be able to accumulate more savings and not be over-reliant on the government for pension benefits . |
| 65 | As such , the elderly need not be as reliant on the community as before . |
| 66 | These finances will definitely relieve the burdens shouldered by individuals without the CPF . |
| 67 | In such a situation , the country becomes richer and there would not be a need to cut down on program benefits or raise taxes . |
| 68 | If people can retire later , then they will not need to depend on others in their old age . |
| 69 | This is because they could earn money on their own and need not rely on their children for living expenses . |
| 70 | On the other hand , with sufficient economic growth , there are more choices and fewer persons in need " . |
| 71 | The aged population will also be encouraged to take care of themselves instead of over-relying on public spending . |
| 72 | However , providing for the parents is not an additional burden for the children as there are benefits when they take care of their parents . |
| 73 | On the other hand , there will be more choices and fewer people in need when there is sufficient economic growth . |
| 74 | The aged can live a comfortable life without worrying or without seeking for financial aid . |
| 75 | A society in which the children will take care of their parents will help to ease the government spending on the aging and divert the spending on other areas of the country . |
| 76 | This would indirectly lead to a healthy mindset as the elderly do not feel that they are a burden to their families . |
| 77 | Hence , extra care for additional health care may not be necessary for many elderly people . |
| 78 | They are capable of taking care of their lives and do not need the government 's aid . |
| 79 | In fact , there are more and more people who do not have to rely on government help . |
| 80 | On the other hand , with sufficient economic growth there would be more choices and fewer persons in need . |
| 81 | With these policies in place , infertile couples will less likely be a burden to the social and economic aspect of an aging population . |
| 82 | Humans do not need to invest too much on it compared to other kinds of energy . |
| 83 | It consequently does ease the aging process , for the elderly need not be at the mercy of others to obtain full medical care and other comforts . |
| 84 | This further suggests that with education , older people in the future will be more affluent and will have a lesser tendency to rely on the government for their well-being . |
| 85 | In this way , the working population will not be stressed too much by the elderly population . |
| 86 | Furthermore when the elderly are in good care of such trained professionals , families do not have to burden themselves with worry the of whether the safety and wellbeing of their elderly is being taken care of . |
| 87 | For retired elderly , they may even feel better as there is no stress from work . |
| 88 | If each person has a sense of responsibility towards increasing the size of today 's economy and tax base , then it will not be a big problem for us to spend more money on the aged . |
| 89 | Thus , they are able to accumulate more wealth and reduce their dependency on their children 's monthly support . |
| 90 | Therefore , the decrease in funding for the elderly should not have a bad impact on the ageing population . |
| 91 | " ( EnterpriseOne , 2006 ) Most importantly , the oldsters are able to earn their own monthly living expenses , which will reduce the burden on their children . |
| 92 | Because of this , the member will not need to worry about retirement in later life |
| 93 | Thus , less funds are needed to help these elderly . |
| 94 | For instance , if a physically fit old man is given monetary assistance beyond the minimum amount , he will not be compelled to work , especially if the benefit made up a large part of his salary . |
| 95 | This can definitely benefit the aged and without adding anyurden to the country 's economy and the next generation . |
| 96 | If public spending is not limited , the aged or the working people may take the aids provided by the government for . Thus they may not work hard during their contribution to the working world . |
| 97 | On the other hand , with sufficient economic growth , there will be more choices available to help those in need and there will also be fewer persons in need ( Robert & Summer , 2005 ) . |
| 98 | Thus , they would be less of a burden to the government . |
| 99 | Financial subsidies would also help to lessen the dependency of the elderly on their children . |
| 100 | If children are bound by such filial obligation , they will then take care of their own parents , and hence , the elderly dependency on government subsidies or the public may be reduced . |
| 101 | During good times , if the elderly can fend for themselves , then this would greatly lessen the load on the country 's budget . |
| 102 | ( Edwards , 2008 ) . Highly educated future generations will tend to earn more incomes and be more health conscious , thus less reliant on government for health and welfare |
| 103 | With sufficient economic growth , there will be lesser needy people as well . |
| 104 | Hence , more elderly people can benefit through this act and it would not be seen as wastage of the country 's funds . |
| 105 | Thus , by improving the education system , the children will be better educated and less dependent on the government for any form of subsidiaries for themselves or their aged parents . |
| 106 | With these improvements , elderly will no longer have to worry about troubled family relationship , thus bringing them closer to their family . |
| 107 | This policy not only helps to minimize the fear of not being taken care of when one is aged , it weakens the negative idea that living with parents only increases one 's expenditure . It also diminishes the worries of aged parents that their children will not have a roof over their head . |
| 108 | This reduces the burden on the family brought about by the ageing process . |
| 109 | There will be more money generated and fewer people will be in need . |
| 110 | They do not need to worry for their future during their early times because sooner or later they will be provided with help by the government . |
| 111 | Secondly , it is not necessary for governments to spend too much money on the elderly to resolve the problem of aging population . |
| 112 | This is also an alternative to the minority of the elderly who prefer to live independently and not burden their child . |
| 113 | It has made them more independent from others , and ceased to be seen as a burden in the eyes of their children and society . |
| 114 | These people do not need the pension from the government . |
| 115 | Also , being more educated , they do not see the need for many children , as time and much money is needed to raise the child in the future . |
| 116 | For instance , people will find that there is no need to prepare themselves for old age because the governments will ensure that they will live completely on public welfare . |
| 117 | Home care for the older parents , therefore , seems to be acceptable for a lot of families to reduce the cost . |
| 118 | However , due to the high independence of senior citizens nowadays , it 's not necessary to provide an all-range policy to all of the aged population as there 're still many other aspects that should be taken care of . |
| 119 | On the other hand , with these schemes , children need not do their duty to take care of their parents . |
| 120 | The elderly would hence feel more in touch with society and likewise , the younger generation would not look upon the elderly as a burden . |
| 121 | Since extensive monetary benefits are given out to Canadians , it should not be a problem for them to cope with ageing as they can save while benefitting from government incentives . |
| 122 | In this case , there would not be a need to allocate limitless public spending to the aged . |
| 123 | In this way , they will be less dependent on the government in the future . |
| 124 | Furthermore , elderly people with better education tend to have more active , healthier lives than others and are not a burden to society . |
| 125 | Therefore , the CPF scheme created by the government has successfully ensured financial security for the aged so they would not need to search for employment to support their financial needs . |
| 126 | Thus , employment policies have made the problems associated with the ageing process negligible . |
| 127 | Therefore , this would incur less healthcare costs as they remain fit and productive in their golden years . |
| 128 | This can be done by building up funds for the country 's development , while not overdoing funding for the aged . |
| 129 | Thus , with the potential " loophole " being dealt with , the tax relief scheme will be able to help in lessening the financial burden that the children have to take on from looking after their parents . |
| 130 | [ 9 ] This technology benefits the elderly by obtaining minimal help from the care givers to feed them and allowing them to gain confidence in living an independent life . |
| 131 | This scheme helps people to plan way ahead . Therefore , they would not have to rely on their children later . |
| 132 | In a way , with adequate personal savings the dependency on government aid is decreased . |
| 133 | On the other hand , this reduces the children 's burden to support the parents . |
| 134 | This will reduce their reliance on others like the government and their families . |
| 135 | Besides this , Friedland ( 2005 ) suggests that " with sufficient economic growth there are more choices and fewer persons in need " . |
| 136 | Although the elderly might be physically weak , they do not have to rely on others and can still be independent and continue to lead a normal life as before . |
| 137 | This will save our time as we do not have to spend hours waiting to check-in or check-out . |
| 138 | This means that they are capable of finding a job to support themselves without having to depend on others . |
| 139 | This is because over the years , Singaporeans have been encouraged and educated to be financially independent , self-reliant and to plan for their old-age ,so as not to be overly dependent on the government . |
| 140 | Pen ultimately , by limiting our public spending on the aged , it will not exacerbate the effects of aging population . |
| 141 | By investing in education and the economy , Singaporeans will be able to generate more disposable income and hence , be less reliant on government funding when they grow old . |
| 142 | This would then reduce the worries of individuals and their families about issues pertaining to education , housing , social services and transportation . |
| 143 | However , by easing the financial burden of the family , it may result in neglecting their obligations to look after their parents . |
| 144 | They will have this mindset that since the government will be taking care of their lives , they need not work. . |
| 145 | Since most of them do save their pension for health care and do not want to burden their children . |
| 146 | In other words , there will not be a need for a deliberate public welfare to take care of the needs of the aged population . |
| 147 | In fact , the resources allocated do not have to be solely for the old as other sectors could also seek betterment from it . |
| 148 | This will definitely reduce the financial burden of the working force , and minimise the stress caused by financial difficulties . |
| 149 | Thus , by having a superb educational system , the government can essentially worry less about meeting the needs of the less educated population , thereby tackling . |
| 150 | There is not much that the government needs to spend on developing the nation . |
| 151 | As our Prime Minister said , by preparing well and early , the present generation of Singaporeans will be able to enjoy healthy and fulfilling lives into their sunset years , without putting a heavy burden on their children and grandchildren . |
| 152 | Hence , it is not necessary to limit public spending on the aged to attract talented immigrants . |
| 153 | Therefore , children today will not face financial problems regarding their education in the future . |
| 154 | On the other hand , with sufficient economic growth there are more choices and fewer persons in need ( Robert B. Friedland and Laura Summer,2005 ) . |
| 155 | As work keeps them occupied , they do not feel the need for their children 's companionship . |
| 156 | This shows that governments can afford to reduce spending on the elderly as welfare is partially funded by the community . |
| 157 | It is also not necessary that elderly will claim more money on medical since chronic diseases attack humans without the age barrier . |
| 158 | Majority of the elderly are not concerned with how much their children give them ; instead they are satisfied as long as their children are able to spend time with them and show their love and concern for them . |
| 159 | Therefore , they will be financially independent . |
| 160 | In addition , families can also help in reducing the risk for the next generation . |
| 161 | This is to ensure that the elderly and the working people will not over rely on the government for aids . |
| 162 | This will allow the people to learn to be more independent in supporting themselves when they retire . |
| 163 | These programs protect those underprivileged elderly from starving or from being homeless . |
| 164 | By not limiting the public spending on the aged in this sector , it will allow more research and development to carry on and technologies to be imported that will ease the ageing process . |
| 165 | Therefore , when economic growth is stable , this will lead to avenues of vast opportunities to further develop the country , and also result in fewer elderly in dire needs ( Friedland and Summer , 2005 ) . |
| 166 | However , critics of this point out that most of the elderly may not face any real financial hardship as they should have CPF savings which is sufficient for their old age needs . |
| 167 | This would lead to smaller dependency ratios for both countries , thus lightening the burden on the working class . |
| 168 | This is because when there is no limitation on public spending on the elderly |
| 169 | In addition , they could lessen the burden on their children . |
| 170 | In that case , if the fiscal costs on the aged are cut down to spend more on the young generation , it can lead to the result that the money aimed to support one target in a family - the young - will be shared to partly meet the demands of both the elderly and the young . |
| 171 | Therefore , they do not have to worry about medical expenses when they are old . |
| 172 | With more competing interests for financial resources , public finance on the aged is of least concern . |
| 173 | Hence , there is a worry that the government will neglect the subsidies to other important sectors , such as education and defence.However , People should not worry about this because increasing subsidies for the elderly can increase the new opportunity for the young generation . |
| 174 | We do n't need to buy the devices and this will actually save a lot of space . |
| 175 | ) .They will continue to be financially secure , instead of starting to depend on their family . |
| 176 | With the subsidy , the elderly can stay in their own houses as they do not have to stay in hospitals . |
| 177 | Children may not find the need to visit as they assume that the elderly already have proper care . |
| 178 | Hence there is no need to restrict public spending on the elderly just to have more resources to be diverted to other areas . |
| 179 | In this way , it can reduce the burden of the next generation and reduce the spending of the government . |
| 180 | In any case , humans tend to be self-centred and less obliged to give of their time beyond personal pursuits . |
| 181 | Secondly , individuals can receive better family support and further harm can be prevented . |
| 182 | The government came up with the Maintenance of Parents Act in 1996 and has been studying to use legal pressure to ensure that children will take care of their parents . This would reduce the reliance of the elderly on the government and subsequently , the government 's budget on the elderly need not be as huge . |
| 183 | As a result , they can cover their everyday needs by themselves . |
| 184 | Employers have the tendency to employ the people with few or possibly no health problems . |
| 185 | In conclusion , it will definitely be better if public spending on the aged is not limited |
| 186 | However , it should be noted that the limitation should not be too much to the extent that the aged are neglected and are not being provided with the basic needs of living . |
| 187 | People are more likely to work longer , and it is not necessary for the government to help them . |
| 188 | With the newborns ' safety being ensured , their parents will not have to worry constantly when they are not able to take care of their infants around the clock . |
| 189 | This would also mean that the government would not need to worry about spending more money to recruit people for national defense , as there would be enough young people to defend the country in the future . |
| 190 | Looking at the numbers , we can tell that sufficient funds have already been allocated for the country 's development so no additional funds are required . |
| 191 | This eliminates the needs for maids or family members to look after the elderly and monitor their every single movement , which in turn spare some dignity for the elderly . |
| 192 | There is no need to worry about the large sum of financial aid required by the aged . |
| 193 | For many years , opponents to such plans believed that the European style of welfare states were the perfect models , where healthcare should be accessible to everyone and that care should be delivered to the aged without them having to pay for it . |
| 194 | We could use any of these six ways to cope with the aging population , without having to limit the public spending on the elderly . |
| 195 | This would thus reduce the financial burden of this group of people based on their income ceilings . |
| 196 | Ideally , there should be no restrictions to how much resource is diverted to the elderly . |
| 197 | The next point is about the consequence of having no limitation on spending money for the elderly . |
| 198 | Being flexible about the limitations of funds and not rigidly capping the maximum budget for the elderly , will allow more room for a greater variety of solutions to be carried out . |
| 199 | In other words , sufficient funding of its aged citizens is not necessary . |
| 200 | And now most of the enterprises are quite satisfied with this economic growth mode and think that it is not necessary to change the industrial structures . |
| 201 | In conclusion , instead of placing a limit on the public spending on the aged , the government can look into the few alternatives proposed to ensure that the elderly will not be neglected and will be given sufficient attention as the country pursues its development . |
| 202 | However , their burdens can be reduced if they have other siblings to share the cost of their parents ' expenses . |
| 203 | Policy and development should be made at an economical level , not too extravagant to enhance people 's lives , but to improve the necessary condition of the elderly . |
| 204 | In this case , they have stronger ability to take care of themselves independently . |
| 205 | Therefore , the elderly will be encouraged to be independent and self sufficient . |
| 206 | It is only right that the government takes care of them , and spends vast amounts of money on them with no questions asked . |
| 207 | This will be a fairer system instead of limiting public spending on elderly . |
| 208 | Nonetheless , some countries are exclusively independent without relying upon immigration to sustain population growth . |
| 209 | Although these issues can be address by not limiting the public spending , there are still other ways to resolve them by diverting the money to another area - improvement in the education system . |
| 210 | With no need for article rising inflation , both married children have to work to support the increasing expenditureno need for plural form . |
| 211 | The CPF account prevents the elderly from depleting their savings and allows them to be financially independent even when they finally stop working . |
| 212 | Hence , they can cater for themselves without any financial aid from the outside world . |
| 213 | Furthermore , the CPF has helped to rule out the possibilities of younger generations neglecting the importance of saving for their old age . |
| 214 | They can earn money by themselves . |
| 215 | There is absolutely nothing wrong in allocating a bulk of the public funds to the aged . |
| 216 | Abandoned and unmarried old people can stand on their own feet without relying on others . |

| 27 | Given more time , this technology will prove its efficiency by giving us fruitful research results and evidence-based outcomes . |
| 28 | From this we can understand that it is essential to come up with a system which is useful in various ways . |
| 29 | With the information one gains from testing , one can make constructive life changes . |
| 30 | Through these methods , a better situation will come soon . |
| 31 | This is a very important process as it is the point where we will be able to come up with solutions to the problems . |
| 32 | Research and development is needed to discover new products and processes or to improve existing ones . |
| 33 | Through more research , we can make this proposal come true . |
| 34 | I believe that if an individual takes up the courage to change , and design a proper design , it would resolve the problems that are hampering the design process for innovation . |
| 35 | Generally , technologies that are developed through research often begin with the need for practical uses or the recognition of a social problem . |
| 36 | In addition , new technologies could be researched to provide a solution to those problems that remain unsolved . |
| 37 | It also allows them to consider existing solutions , if any , and consider various factors which will determine the success of the product such as its economic viability and its effectiveness . |
| 38 | With the use of findings through basic research and investigations , they are able to discover and develop new tools to solve problems . |
| 39 | Technological innovations created from scientific researches are created to satisfy needs to solve problems affecting people . |
| 40 | To deal with such challenges , the government has created many policies to overcome this issue . |
| 41 | By doing sufficient market research , technologies provide things that can fulfill our desires and make our life become more and more convenient . |
| 42 | Identifying these obstacles and their effects may help to prevent rejection of inventions in the future . |
| 43 | Besides , investment in R&D will be able to develop new technologies and new sectors will be introduced to collaborate with the usage of the technologies . |
| 44 | The next step towards achieving this goal would be to gather information on certain aspects relating to his " pictured " solution . |
| 45 | I think there are some ways to solve these problems . |
| 46 | There are other contributing factors such as the efforts of the inventors and their determination to succeed that leads to the discovery of the technology . |
| 47 | Hopefully , these problems can be eliminated in future and the situation can become better and better . |
| 48 | Hopefully , SCWR could be better improved on current problems in future development . |
| 49 | The process of creating new inventions , also labelled as engineering design process , is able to address this issue . |
| 50 | Next , we have to gather relevant information about the problem so that we are able to ensure that the solution we are looking for is able to solve the problem directly . |
| 51 | This person can help to analyze the future requirements of the system and to improve accident prevention . |
| 52 | People began to think of ways to solve the problem . |
| 53 | With information as a good layback , the design can grace the next stage which is the formulation of many solutions to the problem . |
| 54 | The engineering design is to apply technologies to help people solve problems . |
| 55 | In the process , we will be able to analyse the statistics/surveys that we have obtained and generate new ideas to solve the problem . |
| 56 | The intention of the teams is to research and develop their product hoping to come up with a new invention or make the existing products better . |
| 57 | Innovation occurs when there is a need for a new product or service . When someone faces a problem and motivates people to find ways to solve it , new ideas are generated . |
| 58 | Technologies developed through research are ussually to address a problem that have been identified . |
| 59 | this step allows the solution to be exposed to the real-world variation and yields an even more trustworthy appraisal . |
| 60 | We can start by examining the weaknesses of the existing solution and try to improve them , while combining new ideas to create a unique solution to the problem ( Seyyed , 2005 ) . |
| 61 | Moreover , not only should the product solve the initial problem , it should also meet the society 's demand in terms of usability , ergonomics and economical concerns . |
| 62 | In doing so , he can provide better recommendations . |
| 63 | Once such obstacles are overcome , it becomes easier for one to innovate . |
| 64 | Finding out the latest product is also required as room for improvement could be done . |
| 65 | Many technological innovations are made via scientific research or the interaction of scientific investigations and applying them on practical needs and problems . |
| 66 | Possible flaws should be identified so that the product can be improved on later . |
| 67 | Technology is an act of designing and inventing of a tool that will either solve a recognized problem or fulfill a particular human need , in other words it is a product of society . |
| 68 | When there is a need for something , a technology is created to solve the problem . |
| 69 | Thus , combine new ideas , methods , finding more weaknesses could help in producing a totally unique solution to the problem . |
| 70 | After that , gradual improvements will be made to its practicality , and this will subsequently help to serve the public better . |
| 71 | In other words , we should create a good environment for design and solve problems that hamper the design process . |
| 72 | Upon successful implementation , The necessary adjustments or assessments based on the effectiveness of the solutions . can be made . |
| 73 | Understanding the differences and similarities between such a path that inventors take and conventionally generated technologies will help us to better appreciate their efforts & the hardships they have to go through in their endeavours . |
| 74 | However , the criteria of success has to be relooked at for a safer product . |
| 75 | The next step is to gather information and generate solutions . |
| 76 | The main involvement in the designing process for innovations includes modifying and upgrading existing products . |
| 77 | Firstly , both serendipity-based technology and technology developed via research are initiated by the realization of problems and needs . |
| 78 | Often , engineering sciences , basic sciences and mathematics are applied to convert the available information optimally to achieve the desired deeds . |
| 79 | according to Khandani ( 2005 ) , engineering design of products and systems may provide us a way to solve the problem . |
| 80 | These new inventions are discovered when there is a need or a problem ; and when an invention would help solve the problem . |
| 81 | Thereafter , a clear definition of the problem will be reached through the many experiments and data collection done . |
| 82 | It is very important for a country to sustain its products ' marketability by enhancing its design and functions . |
| 83 | New technologies and more efficient production methods will be discovered . |
| 84 | New and clever technologies are constantly being developed by people all around the world to tackle problems that they face . |
| 85 | Moreover , we will help to assemble resources , alleviate coactions and provide specialized expertise in non-visual human perception to assist and invent new effective and courteous technologies to increase non-visual capabilities . |
| 86 | This would help them to specialize in the area they are strong at and hence the entire process would be conducted more effectively , resulting in a better solution or design for the wheel . |
| 87 | This is because inventors have to generate multiple solutions to solve the problem identified . |
| 88 | In spite of these opposing views , these problems can be solved through developed techniques and theories . |
| 89 | Furthermore , analysis of the design also makes sure that the design can really work and people are willing to use the design . |
| 90 | In this step , we can do it in two ways : to improve the existing idea by finding out the weaknesses or to come up with a totally new and creative idea by researching and testing . |
| 91 | Transitions would be easier if society is better prepared . |
| 92 | Therefore , the engineering design process aims to invent a technological approach to meet people 's need . |
| 93 | As the stage progresses , multiple solutions are generated to solve the problems defined earlier . |
| 94 | in order that , it could be re- designed until a reasonable solution is reached . |
| 95 | In the urging need for solution , we have tried our best to reduce these detrimental impacts . |
| 96 | When there are problems , there also must be some ways to solve the problems . |
| 97 | Once the needs are identified , ideas have to be developed through research . |
| 98 | In this stage , creativity plays an extremely important rule here because in generating new ideas that may solve the problem . |
| 99 | A certain type of technology may be developed and polished through numerous research and experiment . |
| 100 | Creativity is one of the biggest emphases in this step in order to generate techincal solutions to the problem . |
| 101 | Regardless of the cause , people have realized there is a need to find a way to solve these problems and improve their way of life . |
| 102 | This is to meet the society 's expectation for them to come up with inventions which are workable the first time round . |
| 103 | At the same time , the creative idea of design to make the product more effective is important for the solution too . |
| 104 | This means that they are more suited to revealing the results by using a more desirable method . |
| 105 | Overall , with the base of the design process carefully established , it would be easier to get to the imminent task . |
| 106 | For example , a research and development team with financial support from the company research on the company 's product and try to improve the existing products and create new products for the company . |
| 107 | We could start with an existing solution to the problem , and from there can find out more weaknesses about our design/product and focus on improving the weaknesses . |
| 108 | The research people tried to refine the system instead . |
| 109 | This in turn trains them to be able to think independently and innovatively which would be vital to the future workforce . |
| 110 | Fortunately the latter can be solved by seeking the help of genetic health professionals who can provide effective communication strategies to help produce a positive outcome of communication . |
| 111 | Thus , this information can help them in making informed choices about their future . |
| 112 | However , with the help of government policies , this problem can be solved . |
| 113 | It means that they are likely to be more effective and decisive in possessing their gains and evaluating on costly or sophisticated services . |
| 114 | Although there are still flaws in the current policies , shortcomings of one policy can be overcome with other policies and developments . |
| 115 | Information gathering is a step which allows the designer to be equipped with background information of the problem before tackling it . |
| 116 | In addition , the solutions must be practical and appropriate to be accepted by society . |
| 117 | In conclusion , to ensure a sufficient supply of natural resources and a healthy environment for us and our future generations to live in , engineering processes can meet our needs by removing and introducing or modifying available engineering processes and making correct decisions through these processes . |
| 118 | During these two steps , different solutions should be carried out in a smaller scale to examine their characteristics and to test their performance in order to make a decision . |
| 119 | By exchanging expertise , multiple solutions may be generated . |
| 120 | To help achieve the objective of designing a safe can opener , engineering design process can be used to analyse the problems of existing can openers , and discover areas of improvement . |
| 121 | The chain effect is that it encourages innovation to develop new communication products which help to fill consumers ' needs , which in turn helps to generate jobs in the manufacturing of these products , the transportation of these products to various countries around the globe and finally the marketing of these products to the end consumers . |
| 122 | Currently , scientists perceive a future problem and launch some research to overcome it . |
| 123 | This would affect the testing and implementation of the solution during the process . |
| 124 | Subsidies are given to the eligible ones to help them overcome this problem . |
| 125 | The process starts with identifying the underlying cause of the need to effectively solve the problem at hand , and is and by research on the topic for better understanding . |
| 126 | Several methods of implementation as well as distinct activities that occur during implementation must be considered when testing is done . |
| 127 | Instead , they should be looking at viable solutions that do not compromise the development of the other sectors . |
| 128 | Thus , they would be able to make a sound decision with this new knowledge . |
| 129 | They should consider helping to improve the level of design innovation in the country so that we can compete globally . |
| 130 | Moreover , the experience and development may come from testing or even accidents . |
| 131 | Having talked about the modifications , we have made efforts to minimize the cost , change the charging method and improve the portability . |
| 132 | It is hoped that more theories and techniques will be applied to alleviate the aging process . |
| 133 | Many solutions have been tested and implemented . |
| 134 | There is the creativity , when several ideas come to mind , followed by the process where these ideas slowly turn to reality by . |
| 135 | Engineering errors are integral parts in the designing process and engineers have adopted the measure of introducing corrective actions such as adding on to the system to minimize or eliminate such errors . |
| 136 | Such as they can conduct workshop to help small enterprise company on improve their technology system . |
| 137 | On the other hand , a research-based technology is built upon the problem that the inventor has intended to solve . |
| 138 | To cope with this problem , technological inventions use two main methods : either to assist and enhance the ability of weak limbs or provide alternative transport . |
| 139 | Generally speaking , intended research to pursue development is similar to serendipitous discovery in terms of the aim and contribution to human society . |
| 140 | To minimize these problems , subsidies were given out for the projects . |
| 141 | Invention is the process of creating something new which is useful to the society in one way or another . |
| 142 | A correct design at the beginning stage is very important to prevent accidents . |
| 143 | They were supposed to use the scientific approach to solve various unexpected problems occurring in the research . |
| 144 | Firstly , we had better develop some technical centre to bring talents together and do research . |
| 145 | From another point of view , government intervention may help to solve the problem . |
| 146 | This team can work together and share their knowledge and expertise to come up with a few solutions . |
| 147 | Subsequently , technology on basic application needs to be researched further . |
| 148 | The next stage of research was to use the scientific method to fulfill the previous target . |
| 149 | First of all , the aim of technology which was developed with research is to explore some useful things and attempt to reach the unknown scientific area in order to solve the problems in the real world . |
| 150 | During the process , creative ideas and inventions are brought up and developed upon . |
| 151 | In order to overcome such injuries and keep users out of harm 's way , we need a logical design process to design a can opener of high safety standards . |
| 152 | In order to come out with a new product , the engineers must be able to think out of the box and possess practical skills . |
| 153 | The crisis will almost be solved if we take these two solutions . |
| 154 | Also , policies are implemented in attempts to dissolve current concerns . |
| 155 | Technologies developed through research are used for their intended purpose . |
| 156 | Despite the disadvantages it may pose , these can be offset by appropriate actions put in place . |
| 157 | This strategy suggested is feasible to a large extent . |
| 158 | These solutions may be generated by analyzing existing products to find out how the weaknesses can be overcome while retaining the strengths . |
| 159 | One of the methods to resolve this problem may be through legislation . |
| 160 | Through research and development , new technologies are being created . |
| 161 | We should seek ways to solve them . |
| 162 | After defining the problems , the next step is to gather relevant information . |
| 163 | Also , decisions like the retirement age and the amount of savings for the future can be made when they are better informed . |
| 164 | Technology which started from research usually begins with identifying a problem or need . |
| 165 | We must also consider the means of implementation such as prototyping or concurrent engineering ( Seyyed , 2005 ) . |
| 166 | Conventionally generated technology plays an important role in fulfilling people 's need and generating profit for companies , . |
| 167 | Hence , governments should encourage independent learning so that students will be more creative and innovative to facilitate engineering design process . |
| 168 | These solutions could be a combination of strengths from existing products or new ideas to counter the weaknesses of existing products |
| 169 | To satisfy the current human need , we should use Roger 's Engineering design process to work out a solution . |
| 170 | To prevent such a situatio from happening , governments have introduced insurance schemes to reduce the cost of treatment . |
| 171 | In fact , there are many ways to mitigate these costs . |
| 172 | CNG equipment manufacturers have invested in research and development to improve this technology and make it convenient and available for consumers globally ( wikipedia,2009 ) . |
| 173 | Thus , issues will arise at the stage of generating solutions . |
| 174 | Most of the inventions were developed by application of scientific research on practical problems or needs . |
| 175 | To sum-up all the points mentioned above , we would conclude that engineering design processes can meet people 's needs by qualified products and services , continuous modifications and the attitude to think for customers . |
| 176 | Additionally , companies should import the advanced ideas and skills from the developed world to improve the technological skill of themselves . |
| 177 | Specifically , the majority of technological innovations are developed by scientific research based on knowledge , research and application in practice . |
| 178 | They will generate and brainstorm innovative ideas . |
| 179 | Therefore , we had better build a sound system to do the technology transfer . |
| 180 | They apply the complicated theories and knowledge to practice to benefit our life . |
| 181 | Therefore , they may apply appropriate measures to eliminate or minimize the potential risk with respect to the unfavorable working environment , such as strengthening the slope with grout anchor tie back , and using an inclinometer to monitor the slope condition . |
| 182 | Next , when the basic and application research are established , the development of the product will begin . |
| 183 | Many assays have been made by engineers to create many unique features to tighten the safety . |
| 184 | It seems that the people above believe they can ensure the safety by just solving the existent problems . |
| 185 | So , to meet the human need , scientists are looking for a new method . |
| 186 | Innovations , , have a common motivation which is to solve surfacing problems in the world . |
| 187 | Generally , most of the technological innovations are created through basic research , followed by applied research , leading finally to development . |
| 188 | ( http : //www.rfidconsultation.eu/,2009 ) Restrictions can also be made to prevent leakages . |
| 189 | Therefore , natural resources are important at the stages of implement the ideas to create the products . |
| 190 | The Government can play a major role in creating a solution to this problem . |
| 191 | After the problem is being identified , more information needs to be gathered . |
| 192 | These two inventions can not only meet our daily needs , but also protect the environment and save the existing resources like coal and petroleum . |
| 193 | Therefore , it would only be wise if there are appropriate modifications made to the CPF scheme . |
| 194 | In conclusion , it is possible to avoid all aspects which will hamper engineering design processes for innovations by changing the mindset of the people as well as finding alternative ways to solve the problem of the lack of resources . |
| 195 | This is indeed a product of a system which is engineered to meet the human need for natural resources . |
| 196 | After the discovery of the creative inventions from either research or serendipity , the more important step is the integration of the inventions . |
| 197 | While this may indeed happen , the situation can still be remedied . |
| 198 | Giving out subsidies based on the financial need is another policy that government can make to reduce the pressure and burden . |
| 199 | Secondly , instead of removing available engineering processes , they can also be modified so that their original functions are still available but at the same time satisfy the need to preserve natural resources and protect the environment . |
| 200 | Even if the financial problem is resolved , the innovations have to be socially acceptable . |
| 201 | However it has since evolved as an empirical science to include realistic models and hypotheses . |
| 202 | Therefore , communication between surgeons and nurses can be improved by the sharing of a common set of statements and ideology . |
| 203 | One may argue that following the safeguards established , it should be able to hinder the needless worries . |
| 204 | In conclusion , scientists made new discoveries by using different methods . |
| 205 | We will use these stages to compare and contrast the two different technologies . |
| 206 | It is said that " " ( p ) sychological methods , theories , and findings are becoming increasingly important to design " ( Benson , 2006 ) . |
| 207 | Besides these functions , the engineers have also included an " impact-reduction " system to reduce the damage done on the wearer when he or she falls . |
| 208 | The process can be eased through economical , social and architectural means . |
| 209 | Like what Seyyed Khandani said , " You start with existing solutions to the problem and then tear them apart-find out what is wrong with those solutions and focus on how to improve their weaknesses " ( 2005,p11 ) |

| 28 | Firstly , a known genetic risk carrier is obligated to tell his or her relatives because of their right to know . |
| 29 | In conclusion , a carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to tell his or her relatives as communication of genetic test results can bring about improved management and well-being of carriers and their families , resolution of concerns , possible reduction in disease occurrence , as well as effective prevention , treatments and even cures . |
| 30 | Admittedly , " a conflict between the well-being of the relatives could occur " and so , a carrier should be obligated to tell his relatives about his genetic risk as the information could be of importance to them ( World Health Organization ) . |
| 31 | Hence , a carrier should tell his or her relatives of his genetic test result . |
| 32 | Hence , a carrier should tell his or her relatives of his genetic test result as discrimination by relatives is rare . |
| 33 | Indeed , carriers of a known genetic risk have the duty to inform their relatives as it would aid their relatives in decision making . |
| 34 | Firstly , the carrier should inform his or her relatives of the health implications that the genetic test results would affect them . |
| 35 | In conclusion , a carrier of a known genetic disease should be obligated to inform his family members about it as both he and his family will benefit from it . |
| 36 | The carrier of a known genetic risk should to tell his or her relatives to inform them of the health implications , to gain emotional support and to adhere to the ethical and legal obligations . |
| 37 | Thus , a carrier of the genetic risk should tell his or her family members . |
| 38 | In conclusion , the carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to tell his or her relatives so as to prevent further spread of the genetic disorder , to take early preventive measures and to give moral support to those who have the same genetic risk . |
| 39 | In conclusion , because it is a right of humans to know about the risk they have , the carriers of disorders must tell their relatives about it . |
| 40 | In summary , the carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives because the sense of responsibility to inform the relatives with crucial genetic information outweighs concerns about affecting the individual by imparting " bad " or potentially unwelcome news . |
| 41 | Therefore , a carrier of genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her family members . |
| 42 | In conclusion , I believe that the carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to tell his relatives . |
| 43 | Nevertheless , an individual should be obligated to inform his family members of the outcome of the genetic testing as doing so will bring benefits to both parties , such as enabling them to provide support to each other and to take careful precautions to reduce risks of infection . |
| 44 | In conclusion the carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives for the benefit of their future . |
| 45 | Hence , that individual should inform his family and relatives so as to advise them to take genetic testing . |
| 46 | In conclusion , a carrier should tell his or her relatives about his genetic result as there is a possibility that they might get the disease or they might be a carrier too and the carrier can get support from them . |
| 47 | Thus , I strongly agree that a carrier of a known disease risk be obligated to inform his or her relatives . |
| 48 | Considering all the points put forth above , I would very much think that there is a strong moral obligation for a carrier of a genetic defect has to tell his relatives about the results of his genetic test . |
| 49 | Hence , a carrier of a known genetic risk should warn their family members and relatives about the genetic risk . |
| 50 | Hence , carriers of known genetic risks should be compelled to reveal their genetic test results to their relatives . |
| 51 | In my opinion , the carrier of a known genetic disease should be obligated to tell his or her family members . |
| 52 | In conclusion , the carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives to protect his or her family 's health as well as protect his or her own safety . |
| 53 | A carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her family members because the family members play a supportive and caregiver role ( Mahowald , McKusick , Scheuerle and Aspinwall , 2001 ) . |
| 54 | To draw a conclusion , for the carriers of genetic risk , it is better to tell the genetic test results to their relatives because it is an action not only showing their responsibility to the family and society , but also ensuring that they can get the best care . |
| 55 | Thus , it is crucial that one should tell one 's family about his genetic condition . |
| 56 | Since genetic testing may open up ethical or psychological problems , carriers of a known genetic risk should be obligated to reveal the results to their relatives . |
| 57 | I believe that the individual is obligated to tell his family members/relatives the test result as it is ethical for the individual to inform them and they can seek early medical assistance if needed . |
| 58 | Therefore , I agree that carriers of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell their family . |
| 59 | In this sense , the carrier is thus obliged to inform his family members of his genetic test in order for his family members to prepare for a possible change in lifestyle . |
| 60 | In conclusion , patients should be obligated to inform their relatives about genetic testing results to enable the latter to receive early treatment and have early financial and psychological preparation . |
| 61 | On the other hand , it is more logical to believe that carriers have the duty to inform their relatives regarding their tests results so that their relatives can make informed choices related to their genes . |
| 62 | Hence , it is important to inform the carrier 's relatives so that they can go for the testing to check whether they are carriers or have an inherited disposition toward the disease . |
| 63 | Thus , if tested positive for these genes , the individual should be obligated to tell his family members . |
| 64 | One should be obligated to reveal his or her own genetic test 's results to his family members as the results can help in family planning . |
| 65 | Thus , it is crucial for the carrier to inform his or her relatives about their genetic risk so as to get the required support to help them through . |
| 66 | Thus , there is a need for a carrier of a known genetic risk to be legally obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 67 | In conclusion , a carrier of genetic disorder must be obligated to reveal the genetic testing results to his relatives . |
| 68 | Therefore , affected individuals should let their relatives know about their genetic testing results . |
| 69 | Firstly , it is their responsibility to tell the relatives the result of the genetic test . |
| 70 | A carrier of a known genetic risk has an ethical duty to warn his or her relatives . |
| 71 | Besides that , a carrier of a known genetic problem should be obligated to tell his family members so that the chances of treating or at least improving his disease will be much more higher . |
| 72 | Finally , individuals should tell the result of their genetic test to their relatives as it is a public issue . |
| 73 | Anyhow , as a member of the family , one is obligated to tell the genetic test results to one ' own relatives . |
| 74 | In conclusion , all genetic test participants carrying genetic risk should be obligated to reveal the test results to their family and relatives . |
| 75 | In my view , a carrier should tell his or her relatives about the result as firstly , there is a possibility that they might get the disease or they might be a carrier too and hence they have a right to know . |
| 76 | In conclusion , the individuals carrying genetic risk should be obligated to inform their family members as they should be responsible and fair to their family members and not deprive the members from taking early measures against the disease . |
| 77 | Again , disorders of such type puts lives at stake and therefore carriers should be obligated to convey the results of the genetic test to their relatives . |
| 78 | However , it is the individual 's responsibility to tell his family members regarding his genetic test result . |
| 79 | Hence , it is undeniably crucial for carriers of genetic diseases to treat the disclosure of genetic test results to their family members and relatives as an obligation to fulfil . |
| 80 | Carriers of known genetic risks should be obligated to tell their relatives because it prevents severe harm such as loss of lives . |
| 81 | Likewise , obligation of carrier to tell his or her relatives allows those who indeed will suffer from dormant genetic diseases or are suffering from genetic condition to plan their lives ahead . |
| 82 | Hence , individuals should be obligated to inform their relatives as it is beneficial for themselves in terms of fighting against genetic illnesses effectively . |
| 83 | Hence , individuals who carry genetic diseases are obligated to disclose their test results among their relatives . |
| 84 | It is undeniable that one is morally obliged to inform the relatives of the patients about the genetic test results . |
| 85 | Ideally , owing to the beneficial impacts , a carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives when the risk is familial , significantly critical , and when options are available to prevent harm . |
| 86 | Therefore , the result of the testing should be told to the carrier 's relatives . |
| 87 | In all , carriers have the obligation to inform their family members of their genetic test results since the advantages clearly outweigh the disadvantages . |
| 88 | Therefore , it is the responsibility of individuals to inform their family members upon deciding the benefits and limitations of the genetic results . |
| 89 | Thus , the individual should be obligated to inform his/her relatives to avoid such situation . |
| 90 | In conclusion , the individual requesting genetic testing has the obligation to inform others of his condition ( Norrgard , 2008 , Reproductive and Other Familial Concerns , para . |
| 91 | Firstly , the patients are obligated to tell their relatives about the result as it will invariably affect them to some extent . |
| 92 | Firstly , a carrier should inform his or her family as this will prepare the family for the possible outcome of them having the mutated genes . |
| 93 | The reasons to inform outweigh the reasons not to ; hence , a carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 94 | Hence , the carrier should tell his or her relatives in order for them to make future plans and have a good family life . |
| 95 | Another reason as to why an individual should be obligated to inform the genetic test result to his or her relatives is so that they may be able to receive emotional support from the family ( Newstaff , 2009 ) . |
| 96 | Secondly , patients are responsible to tell their relatives especially family members about the outcome of a genetic test so that they can have early financial and psychological preparations . |
| 97 | In conclusion , it is the responsibility of the individuals to inform their family members upon deciding the benefits and limitations of the genetic result . |
| 98 | In my opinion , I believe that individuals should be obligated to reveal such information to their relatives . |
| 99 | Thus , an individual with known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives to protect themselves from potentially dangerous environments and ensure their personal safety . |
| 100 | Thus , people should reveal their genetic test result to their relatives as . |
| 101 | However , he must have the moral responsibility to inform his relatives about his genetic disorders so as to prepare the latter psychologically , medically and financially . |
| 102 | In fact the potential for harm to uninformed relatives outweighs the individual 's right to confidentiality and therefore the carrier of a known genetic risk should be obligated to tell his or her relatives . |
| 103 | In conclusion , legal obligation of carriers with known genetic risk to tell their relatives should be implemented as it brings about advantages such as preventing loss of lives and reducing uncertainties in potential patients ' futures . |
| 104 | Though the decision is made ultimately by the individuals , I think it is necessary for them to inform their family . |
| 105 | Other than that , the patient should tell the result of the test to their family members because family members act as patient advocate role ( Mahowald et al. , 2001 ) . |
| 106 | Thus , the genetic risk carrier should not hesitate to tell his relatives so that they can benefit from the information medically . |
| 107 | It is hence the responsibility of individuals who are carriers of a genetic risk to tell their family members the possible outcome of the unborn child . |
| 108 | A Carrier With a Known Genetic Risk Should Tell His or Her Relatives |
| 109 | The importance of sharing the information with family members is recognized , as even during the pretest genetic counseling session , an individual would be advised to share the result with them ( { www.ons.org } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.ons.org ] , 2009 ) . |
| 110 | Secondly , a known genetic risk carrier is obligated to tell his or her relatives to save their lives . |
| 111 | Therefore , a carrier of known genetic risk should be legally obligated to inform relatives , not just morally responsible to do that . |
| 112 | Moreover , the individual should tell his relatives about the result of his genetic testing as it will . |
| 113 | Another reason why a carrier should tell his or her his genetic results is because his or her relatives might be able to provide support to him . |
| 114 | However , critics argue that family members should have the right to know if they are at risk of getting the disease . |
| 115 | These cases prove that one should reveal the result to his or her family . |
| 116 | In conclusion , a person should be obligated to reveal his genetic testing 's results as it has more advantages in doing so than disadvantages as encouragement from his family and family planning is crucial to a person with genetic disorder . |
| 117 | In considering these three factors , I feel that a carrier of a known genetic risk is obligated to reveal the results to his or her relatives . |
| 118 | Therefore it is better for the carriers to tell their relatives the test results . |
| 119 | Thus it is absolutely and morally vital for the affected individual to inform his relatives of his genetic disorder , so as to prepare his relatives psychologically , medically and financially . |
| 120 | Thus , carriers should at least tell their spouse their condition , so that the family as well as the next generation can be protected . |
| 121 | Firstly , the person should reveal the results to his or her relatives as . |
| 122 | One is morally obligated to inform the relatives of the genetic test results since family members generally inherit the same set of genetic codes from their parents . |
| 123 | Thus , the result should be told to their relatives . |
| 124 | In my opinion , the carrier should be obligated to do so as this will aid in family planning , garnering support from family and also to prompt other relatives to test whether they are at risk too . |
| 125 | Firstly , family members/relatives deserve a right to know what kind of genetic disorder they might have inherited from the individual or running in their family line . |
| 126 | Carriers of a Known Genetic Risk Should Tell Their Relatives |
| 127 | Therefore , individuals should have an ethical obligation to reveal the truth to their relatives so that they can be treated effectively . |
| 128 | Secondly , a carrier should inform his or her family as the family members have the ability to make an informed choice for their actions towards the problem . |
| 129 | Hence , it is not ethically wrong to inform relatives of the carrier about the possible risk and the decision of whether they should undergo similar genetic testing would then be up to them . |
| 130 | Secondly , informing relatives of their genetic results will enable better care of him- or herself . |
| 131 | " Norrgard ( 2008 . An individual who is to have Huntington 's disease has an ethical obligation to reveal the truth of genetic result to his relatives . |
| 132 | On the other hand , others reason that the genetic inheritance is something that is quite crucial ; thus it should be discussed with the family first before reaching the final decision .Therefore , the final say does not only depend on one person but also his relatives . |
| 133 | Firstly , they are obligated to tell their relatives as it is a matter of personal responsibility . |
| 134 | Firstly , it is imperative that a carrier of a disease related to genetic disorder tell his or her relatives as soon as possible . |
| 135 | Although it is the right of the individual requesting genetics to decide to reveal the result or not ( Scientific American , 2008 ) , relatives of a carrier also have the right to be warned against any genetic risk and to receive necessary treatment . |
| 136 | Hence , the carrier of genetic disease must be obligated to tell the genetic testing result since the welfare of family members can be improved . |
| 137 | I believe that they should tell their relatives . |
| 138 | Therefore , a carrier should inform the spouse of the genetic disorder so that they can discuss and plan whether or not to take the risk of having a child . |
| 139 | The fact that " Families saw the disease destroy their loved ones ' ability to feel , think , and move " ( MedicineNet.com , n.d. , p.3 ) indicates the consequence of this incurable genetic disorder that is passed on within the family , if the carrier is not obligated to reveal the testing results . |
| 140 | Sharing of test positive results with relatives is necessary as it is the relatives ' right to know about it . |
| 141 | In the perspective of a carrier 's relative , most people would definitely want to be informed if they are at an increased risk of having a genetic condition . |
| 142 | Although these issues are inevitable , the carrier should ultimately be obligated to reveal the genetic test results to the family members as the benefits of it would outweigh any other problems . |
| 143 | A carrier should tell his or her relatives as they might be at risk of getting the disease or being a carrier too ( Lea , Williams and Donahue , 2005 ) . |
| 144 | " It is widely recognised that one of their roles is to inform may be at risk and patients are encouraged to discuss this risk with their relatives " ( Forrest , 2000 ) . |
| 145 | Whether an individual with the genetic disease chooses to disclose the genetic information to the family members depends on how they gauge the risks and benefits of revealing the truth , their sense of responsibility towards them and most importantly how it affects them ( Agatha & Angst , 2009 ) . |
| 146 | In addition , he should also bring his family members along for genetic counseling so as to prevent unnecessary emotional distress due to their possible misinterpretation of the genetic test results . |
| 147 | On one hand , relatives of the individual should be given the right to know about it since it concerns them as well . |
| 148 | Hence , one should be obligated to break the news early to their relatives . |
| 149 | If individuals do not have the final say in revealing genetic test results , their family members will know their condition , and they can be more sensitive to the individual 's feelings , such as giving them better support and encouragement . |
| 150 | Both sides of family members should have the right to know the result and to be able to take preventive and treatment measures . |
| 151 | It is true that the decision of revelation lies with the carrier which means that more care should be taken when making a decision with the benefit of the relatives in mind . |
| 152 | He needs to inform his wife in order for them both make wise decisions if they were to start a family ( When Do Doctors Recommend Genetic Testing ? , n.d. ) . |
| 153 | The carrier is at least morally obligated to inform his relatives from an altruistic point of view . |
| 154 | Hence more often than not , one should be frank with one 's family and not withhold any results of the genetic test . |
| 155 | It is assumed that individuals should be responsible in sharing relevant information with their family members after counseling . |
| 156 | Instead , it should be a must for him to disclose his disease to his spouse to save their baby from inheriting the disease , to his employer to make sure that his job is for him and to all people around him to fulfil his sense of responsibility . |
| 157 | One has to reveal the result to one 's family and spouse for them to know . |
| 158 | Not only that , those who are already married should also reveal the results to his spouse so that they can come up with a plan for their family like how many children they want and whether they want to take the risk of having a child . |
| 159 | The individual has the responsibility to inform the closest around him of this genetic problem . |
| 160 | When a teenager is diagnosed with a serious genetic disorder , she must tell her parents know , since the doctor needs the permission of her family before giving her any treatment . |
| 161 | Thus , a carrier should be obligated to tell his or her spouse so as to prevent subsequent tension and ordeal in the family . |
| 162 | All in all , carriers have to consider beyond personal concerns and fulfil obligations to inform family members and relatives about their genetic disorders for early detection , prevention and cure . |
| 163 | Carriers of genetic risks perceive a strong sense of responsibility to share information about their genetic condition with others ( Loescher , Crist , Siaki , 2009 ) . |
| 164 | Secondly , individuals should inform their relatives as it is their moral responsibility towards them . |
| 165 | Medical geneticists ' duty to warn at-risk relatives for genetic disease [ Internet ] [ Cited 2009 October 22 ] . |
| 166 | ( American Society of Clinical Oncology , 2006 ) Due to the broader effects that may be present , people should discuss with their family first before deciding on something . |
| 167 | Since they are in the same family tree , the relatives should have the right to know the probability of contracting this inherited disease . |
| 168 | To conclude , we have seen that disclosure of test results to a carrier 's relatives is outright compulsory . |
| 169 | A carrier is thus obliged to tell his family members in order for them to start thinking ahead by starting initiatives like saving plans or taking up more jobs . |
| 170 | On the other hand , it is significant for every family member to know about the history of familial disease so that they can be more aware while handling it or taking preventive measures and better care throughout their life . |
| 171 | An individual who wishes to start a family with his spouse should reveal his testing result . |
| 172 | Critics have also raised the psychological and emotional issues that the individual and his relatives may experience after he tells them the genetic test result . |
| 173 | Undoubtedly , for some genetic risks , there will be a stronger case for the duty to warn relatives about it especially in serious conditions like breast cancer ( BRCA-1 ) and Huntington 's Disease ( On warning families about genetic risk : the ghost of Tarasoff ) While there is an issue of a not having confidentiality on the matter , at least the carrier can sleep well at night knowing that he has fulfilled his responsibility . |
| 174 | However , this legal requirement is decided on a case-by-case basis as there are situations when a clinician may consider necessary intervention , that is , notifying their family members for some life- threatening cases . |
| 175 | By imposing a law , people feel safer when undergoing genetic testing testing as it is the deciding factor to disclose their genetic results to family members or third party under their obligations . |
| 176 | Since the relatives of a carrier of disorders , especially his or her family , have a higher risk , they have a right to know about it ( Cancer.net , 2009 ) . |
| 177 | The spouse does have the right to know whether the child will suffer from the genetic diseases . |
| 178 | This could be prevented if the individual concerned broke the news to his family members so that they can discuss as a family . |
| 179 | Therefore , the carrier of a known genetic disease should be forced to reveal the result to his spouse since loyalty and sincerity are the basic factors that holding a marriage tightly and the relationship can be maintained . |
| 180 | Hence , it is essential that one should notify one 's family about one 's condition as soon as possible . |
| 181 | Firstly , a couple who is planning to get married and one of them or a close relative has an inherited disease , is advised to take up genetic testing . |
| 182 | Spouses too have the right to know when it comes to making a family just as he or she has equal rights over the children . |
| 183 | Those who have a family history of particular genetic disorder should be particularly well aware of the risk of getting the disease and take the necessary precautions with the guidance of their doctor . |
| 184 | A spouse does have the right to know the family disease of their partner . |
| 185 | In conclusion , it is the social and emotional aspects that affect the carrier 's decision on whether or not he should make known his genetic risk to his family members . |
| 186 | Besides the right to know , most important is the possibility of early detection and treatment for blood relatives . |
| 187 | Thus , the parent should warn the child of this possibility . |
| 188 | If a couple is planning to have a child , it is best for them to go through genetic counseling if the parents are carriers of genetic disease [ 2 ] . |
| 189 | Firstly , it is important to reveal the result if a couple is planning to get married and one of them has certain inheritable diseases . |
| 190 | Agatha M. Gallo and her colleagues ( 2001 ) note that the decision of disclosing genetic testing result should be made by considering some major life events such as graduation and marriage ( Am J Nurs. , 2001 , To disclose or not to disclose ? |
| 191 | However , critics argue that there are counseling sessions set up to help individuals understand their personal risk or the risk for other family members ( Adams , 2003 ) . |
| 192 | However , the family members have the rights to know the result . |
| 193 | The second case is where a couple finding out their genetic condition after their marriage . |
| 194 | By informing their spouse early , they can take before planning to have children . |

| 7 | In my mind , the youth have a duty to care for their old parents in the way that their parents took care of them when they were young . |
| 8 | Even though the government encourages children to take care of their parents , there are still cases where parents sue their children for not taking care of them . |
| 9 | Pro-family policies and regulations , like the Maintenance of Parents Act , also help to reinforce social obligations in children to take care of their aged parents ( Peterson , 2001 ) . |
| 10 | This will increase the willingness of the grown children to take care of their parents and realize their obligation to their parents . |
|---|---|
| 11 | However in some cases where children are unfilial , the government has introduced the " Parents Maintenance Act Law " , to help solve the problem of unfilial children by making them support their elderly parents in a form of paying them a monthly allowance . |
| 12 | As children , it is their responsibility to take care of their parents and elders in the family . |
| 13 | In this way , people will be setting a good example to their children on how to look after parents when they grow old . |
| 14 | This will encourage working adults to take responsibility in looking after their elderly parents and thus , promoting filial obligation . |
| 15 | Parents have brought their children up , and in return the children will have the responsibilities to take care of parents when they get old . |
| 16 | This social policy imposes a legal obligation on children to maintain their parents to deal with and prevent problems related to the neglect of elderly parents . |
| 17 | Another strategy that he stated would be to emphasize filial obligation and encourage the willingness of tomorrow 's grown children to look after their aged parents , so as to lower government spending on the elderly . |
| 18 | The children of the future should provide for their parents as much as they can even though their financial status looks bleak so that the aging population will not have to rely too much on government help . |
| 19 | In many traditional families , it is a social expectation for children to support their elderly parents after retirement . |
| 20 | ( Mehta , and Wee , 2004 ) . Education can also be a channel for the nation to emphasize filial obligations in order to increase willingness of the future generations to take care of their parents when they are old |
| 21 | Hence , I hope that the relationship between the generations can be nurtured and children will take the responsibility for taking care of their parents . |
| 22 | The reason being their income will be used to support elderly parents , to cover family expenses and provide for their children . |
| 23 | Children also should arrange for their parents to live under the same roof so as not to only provide for them financially but also to show care and concern to their aging parents . |
| 24 | In this way , the children will have better financial means to take care of their parents . |
| 25 | It is true that some of the families are able to afford to support their elderly parents and it should be their responsibility to bear the expenses of their aged family members instead of the government . |
| 26 | Therefore , it is highly encouraged that children should fulfil their filial duty by looking after and caring for their own parents . |
| 27 | Children are encouraged to take care of their parents . |
| 28 | On the other hand , it was stressed that children should carry out their filial obligations to provide for their ageing parents . |
| 29 | For example , filial obligation is stressed through informal and formal channels to increase the willingness of the next generation to support their own elderly parents . |
| 30 | Governments are stressing on filial obligation and hope to increase the willingness of tomorrow 's grown children to support their own elderly parents . |
| 31 | So , increasing the awareness of filial obligation will result in more children taking care of their elderly parents and help to ease the country 's aging process . |
| 32 | In addition to all these policies , filial piety and greater family support is also emphasized Children are encourage to take care of their parents when they are old as this will ease the funding of the government for the elderly . Instead the government could just focus on the needy elderly who have no children to look after them . |
| 33 | All these helped to encourage the children to look after their parents and at the same time , ensure that the elderly parents will be at the receiving end . |
| 34 | It is time for the elderly to take care of themselves more , which could be accomplished by the support of their children . |
| 35 | If the aged have children , the children should also be responsible for their parents ' well-being in the first place . |
| 36 | Firstly , it is through stressing filial obligation and increasing the willingness of tomorrow 's grown children , however numerous or productive , to support their own elderly parents through informal and familial channels . |
| 37 | Hence , governments should encourage their normal working population to bear the responsibility for taking care of their elderly parents , through social awareness campaigns . |
| 38 | This helps to prevent grown up children from running away from their responsibilities towards their parents . |
| 39 | This allows the couples to take care of each other especially when they are old , or to take care of their parents when they are still young . |
| 40 | On the one hand , policymakers have carried out a range of policies to encourage younger children to take care of their elderly parents by staying with them . |
| 41 | They should assume this responsibility by providing for their parents . |
| 42 | Filial obligation and willingness of grown children to take care of their aged parents are needed indeed . |
| 43 | Secondly , at the social level , it is the filial obligation of children to take care of their parents when they grow old . |
| 44 | This way , they are able to provide for their parents instead of abandoning them in a home or hospital . |
| 45 | Individuals should fulfill their filial obligations and take care of their elderly parents or relatives . |
| 46 | Their children should be the one to support them through their old age as " repayment " for all that their parents have done . |
| 47 | An increase in emphasis on filial obligation can promote closer relationship within a family through policies such as rebates given to those living within certain proximity of their parents . |
| 48 | Increasing the awareness of filial obligation will result in more adult children living with and taking care of their elderly parents . |
| 49 | " ( Children are encouraged to take care of their parents when they are old through various publicity and schemes , such as the case in Singapore , whereby people are given housing grants for choosing to stay near their parents and also providing tax relief for individuals taking care of their parents . |
| 50 | On the contrary , this is only applicable to filial children who are willing to take care of their parents . |
| 51 | By taking care of their own parents , these working adults can be positive examples for their children . |
| 52 | Children have an unprecedented obligation to care for their own parents . |
| 53 | In other word , making the adult children actively support their parents will be better than asking them to passively pay higher tax . |
| 54 | Family members in return are more inclined to care for the aged themselves . |
| 55 | With the elderly to look after , there will be more stress on filial obligations thereby increasing the willingness of adults in the future to take care of their elderly parents by all means . |
| 56 | The Parent Maintenance Act is one of the many policies aimed at helping the elderly with their financial needs . |
| 57 | Firstly , grown children should take care of their elderly parents . |
| 58 | The government may have to create a new policy stating that those children who have stable income of a certain amount will have to take care of their parents . |
| 59 | It encourages adult married children to live near their parents so that they can take care of them and attend to their parents ' needs conveniently . |
| 60 | Thus this leads to elevated economic growth and higher standard of living , and children will be able to look after their parents . |
| 61 | This legislation would help to discourage adult children from shirking their responsibility of looking after their aged parents . |
| 62 | The elderly can be looked after by their own families as a traditional aspect before relying on the support from the national budget . |
| 63 | Firstly , the Parents Maintenance Act can now address the concern of the increasing number of parents who are neglected and abandoned by their children. . |
| 64 | Implementation of the Tax Relief Scheme such as The Aged Parent Relief is also an important step to improve the retirement security as it encourages children to take care of their parents , thereby easing the aging process |
| 65 | Children of the aged should be given more responsibility for shouldering the financial needs of their parents rather than the government . |
| 66 | One of the ways would be to stress filial obligation and increase the willingness of children to support their elderly parents ( Peter G. Peterson , 2001 ) . |
| 67 | In conservative countries such as Singapore , children are expected to take care of their parents by providing them with allowances to meet their daily needs . |
| 68 | The dependency on the government can also be reduced by requiring the children to support their own parents when possible . |
| 69 | The government thus introduced the Maintenance of Parents Act to prevent adult children from abandoning their elderly parents |
| 70 | Some societies have laws in place to enforce children to take care of elderly parents . |
| 71 | After all , it is their parents who took care of them when they were young . |
| 72 | In that way the elderly have their families to look after them . |
| 73 | As implemented in Singapore , filial obligation is drafted in law , which means that children are compulsory to take care of their parents ' elder life . " It would be agreed that children owe to their parents respect and kindness generally and assistance in case of infirmity or any special need... " ( Henry Sidgwick 1907 ) . |
| 74 | Therefore , the adult children of the aged seem like the most plausible individuals to provide for their parents . |
| 75 | The most considerable strategy is that stressing filial obligation and increasing the willingness of tomorrow 's grown children to support their own elderly parents through informal and family channelno full-stop |
| 76 | In the past , it was a tradition that adult children should take primary responsibility for the good care of their aging parents . |
| 77 | Moreover , it is the children 's responsibility to take care of the parents instead of the government . |
| 78 | The law advocates that adult children care for their aged parents instead of leaving them alone by themselves to integrate with the society and find their means of survival . |
| 79 | With these services , working adults can still fulfill their filial obligation as children and maintain a manageable financial burden . |
| 80 | Moreover , children certainly should look after and take care of their old parents more thoughtfully than before because they would not want to see their parents affected by the decrease in funds for elderly citizens . |
| 81 | For example , the better-off should try to support their own elderly parents through ways such as giving them a monthly allowance etc. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore also made a National Day Rally Speech this year to stress filial obligation for parent maintenance . |
| 82 | When the children live near their parents , there is a higher probability of them visiting their parents often , hence making it easier for them to take care of their parents . |
| 83 | Similarly , increasing adult 's responsibility for their older parents particularly assists the government in caring a number of older people and saving health care fees . |
| 84 | Finally , a large family when merely one child takes the main bulk of care giving duties of their aged parents . |
| 85 | And if for some reason the younger ones in the family do not help their elders , they can be sued under the " Maintenance of Parents Act , which allows parents to sue their children for financial support . |
| 86 | Moreover , the elderly can help to take care of their children , if any . |
| 87 | The Maintenance of Parents act in Singapore requires children to support their elderly parents . |
| 88 | It may be successful in getting the children to pay the maintenance of their parents ; but by enforcing such law , . |
| 89 | This was further supported by Peterson ( 2001 ) who has also brought up the concept of children 's responsibility in maintaining elderly parents . |
| 90 | HDB encourages children live in close proximity with their parents so that children can take care of parents during emergency . |
| 91 | However , depending on the support and care from the family may be a better and cheaper alternative to take care of the elderly than depending on the nursing home 's nurse to take care of one 's parents . |
| 92 | On the other hand , in eastern countries the grown children , who started working in the society have to take care of their parents . |
| 93 | If the government continues to fund the old aged , children may think that the government would support their parents financially even if they do not . |
| 94 | As people can no longer depend on society to look after their parents , they will have to take up the responsibilities of looking after their own parents . |
| 95 | Consequently , parents can demand financial maintenance from their children through family court . |
| 96 | To further tackle the rising trend , the Government has implemented different housing schemes so as to better allow the families to look after their aged parents rather than putting them in old folks ' homes or leaving them to look after themselves . |
| 97 | In Singapore , a significant legislation known as the " Maintenance of Parents Act " in 1995 requires children to support their parents during the latter 's old age which has the effect of preventing problems related to the neglect of elderly parents |
| 98 | The Government should stress the important role of filial obligation because it not only reduces the burden of elder dependency but also gives the elderly indirectly benefit through investing in their children . |
| 99 | Children will be grateful to their parents and increase their willingness to support their parents in future . |
| 100 | This is because what the aging population needs are their children 's provisions and their care and concern . |
| 101 | The government could also enact a law to compel children to support their parents if the children are capable and the parents are in need . |
| 102 | Children often expect their parents to contribute to household chores when they move in and do not expect to be made responsible for their parents ' well-being. . |
| 103 | First , the sandwiched generation that is expected to take care of their children and their aging parents and on top of that to manage the increasing standard of living . |
| 104 | Children of the aged should be responsible for their own parents . |
| 105 | The maintenance of parents act protects the future of the elderly , allowing the elderly to sue for monetary needs if their children refused to provide . |
| 106 | What is recommended is the government should probably help only those elderly whose children are not financially capable of supporting their parents . |
| 107 | Some mentioned that it should be the children 's responsibility to take care of elderly and some of the problems are inevitable . |
| 108 | This way , it will ensure that the parents are not being abandoned by their children . |
| 109 | This will help the elderly indirectly as the children are trained to embrace the Eastern value to respect and take care of their parents . |
| 110 | The act ensures that the child or children have to support their parents since they will face serious consequences if they did not . However , it is a question of whether they have done it willingly . |
| 111 | The HDB housing policy which encourages families to stay closer to their parents allows the elderly to continue their role in helping their children or even an additional role as a grandparent . |
| 112 | With the implementation of the Maintenance of Parents Act in Singapore , it is arguable that the younger generations are not only morally responsible for , but also compelled to taking care of their aged parents . |
| 113 | Singapore government has passed the maintenance of parents act to make children look after their parents . |
| 114 | The Family Court of Singapore has established laws to ensure that an adult child has to put forth effort to support their own parents through informal and familial channels , for example : Parents Maintenance Act . |
| 115 | Therefore , the costs of spending for the should be borne by their respective offspring . |
| 116 | This allows the elderly to be close to their children and some may even undertake the responsibilities of taking care of their grandchildren . |
| 117 | Under the influence of their parents , these children will be more likely to follow in their footsteps and will voluntarily take care of them when they are old . |
| 118 | This would prevent them from abandoning their parents when they grow up . |
| 119 | Thirdly , if the aged have children , the children should also be responsible for their parents ' well-being . |
| 120 | It is only reasonable and sensible for the children to take care of their parents as they are the ones that painstakingly brought them up , providing them with education and nurturing them into adults . |
| 121 | After all , it is the children 's responsibility to provide for their parents before the government steps in to help . |
| 122 | The family should carry out the responsibility to look after the elders . |
| 123 | These ensure while the younger generation is able to contribute economically , they do not neglect the filial obligation towards the aged and at the same time raise the fertility level . |
| 124 | The parents have the authoritative rights for the well-being of their children . |
| 125 | Family ties may be further strained since the children are not taking care of their parents willingly . |
| 126 | Thirdly , it is our responsibility to take care of our parents whom grew us up since young . |
| 127 | For example , when families have an average of one child instead of two or three children , the single child will have the task of taking care of his or her family in the future . |
| 128 | Young adult children , especially those who already started a family , find themselves sandwiched between providing care for their elderly parents and their children . |
| 129 | Under this scheme , elderly parents who have no other support can claim financial aid from their children . |
| 130 | When married children are housed near their parents , they are more likely to visit them frequently due to convenience and simultaneously , the elderly will be taken care of physically as well . |
| 131 | More to protect aged parents . |
| 132 | Thus the National Housing policies were introduced to encourage filial responsibilities of the adult children . |
| 133 | An example would be an only son having to support his aging parents and elderly grandparents . |
| 134 | Hence , sustainable solutions to the aging problem start with the children who are supposed to be taking care of them . |
| 135 | some may argue that since the elderly spent their money on their children , it 's now the responsibility of the children to look after their needs , and not the government 's . |
| 136 | Hence , there should be distribution of public funds to the elderly parents of these families . |
| 137 | In cases where the elderly can not support themselves financially and their children refuse to take care of them , Maintenance of Parents Act had been implemented in 1996 . |
| 138 | In Singapore , one is compelled to undertake the role of the caregiver and this is backed up with law of maintenance of parent 's act to ensure one fulfills one 's filial obligations . |
| 139 | They have to spend more time taking care of their parents by themselves . |
| 140 | Also , the Parents Maintenance Act is only relevant to the elderly who have children |
| 141 | For example , people should be compelled by law to take care of their own parents . |
| 142 | The Maintenance of Parents Act is one good example of government intervention where taking care of elderly is . |
| 143 | Parents above sixty , who can not support themselves , can approach the tribunal for an order to claim maintenance from their children , delegating responsibility to the children . |
| 144 | The responsibility to look after the aged should be shouldered by the children as well . |
| 145 | Also , financial aid would only be given to those without family support , through the Public Assistance Scheme . |
| 146 | Thus , family members may need to fork out their own money to support their elderly parents . |
| 147 | As a matter of fact , according to Kalyani K. Mehta , to meet further challenges of population aging , the Maintenance of Parents Act was implemented to deal with anticipated problems related to the social and health care of older persons . |
| 148 | This is to encourage children to visit their parents often thus giving them a sense of warmth and security . |
| 149 | Unlike in the Asian countries , this culture is not very prominent in the western countries . The governments should encourage its citizens to take up the responsibility that is looking after their aged parents . |
| 150 | Filial responsibilities might be understood in many ways , such as obligation to help elderly parents , or to keep in close contact with them , or to live near them , etc . |
| 151 | The government can start policies to make it compulsory for children to provide for their parents with the basic necessities such as housing and allowance . |
| 152 | This is because limiting public spending on elderly only transfers the responsibility to their family . |
| 153 | Caring for Elderly Parents . |
| 154 | Therefore , public spending on the aged should be cut down because the younger generation should be the one supporting their parents ; it is their own duty and should not be left to the government . |
| 155 | This scheme allows parents to get the court 's help to seek financial support from their children who are capable of supporting them , but are not doing so . |
| 156 | The Maintenance of Parents Act give parents above 60 years old who could not support themselves the legal means to claim maintenance from their children . |
| 157 | Nonetheless , in view of this dying tradition , the Maintenance of Parents Act is in place to tackle such issues . |
| 158 | Opponents of this position argue that the elderly should be paid attention with more and more subsidies because they are the predecessors with a lot of commitment to societies . |
| 159 | It is also by law in Singapore that children have to support their parents if the parents could not support themselves financially . |
| 160 | The elderly 's children are also another form of support . |
| 161 | Instead of giving help directly to the elderly , the government should tackle the root of the problem by getting the people to take care of their elderly parents . |
| 162 | Family might be a better solution to abate the process , as it is the main emotional and financial support for the elderly . |
| 163 | These parents may want to protect their family 's name and want their children to take care of them out of gratitude instead of legal obligations . |
| 164 | Care at home is often the preferred choice of the elderly and is generally more affordable for care providers than putting them into an institution for the elderly . |
| 165 | However , the elderly might prefer to stay at their own home or recuperate under the care of their children . |
| 166 | If the government pays more attention to them , the chances of the individual families to pay attention to their elders would increase . |
| 167 | Under this act , parents who are above the age of 60 and are unable to support themselves can claim maintenance from children . |
| 168 | Reinforcement of the ethic of filial pity can vicariously develop strong bonds between children and parents . |
| 169 | Thus , it pulls down their awareness of responsibility for looking after their own aged parents , while pushing the responsibility to the state . |
| 170 | In this aspect , the government is entirely supportive of children fulfilling their filial obligations . |
| 171 | The Government has introduced schemes to encourage Singaporeans to maintain their parents such as the legislation on filial piety , which is as the Maintenance of Parents Act ( Vasoo , Ngiam , 2000 ) . |
| 172 | Lastly , filial obligation is also one of the methods to decrease the negative impact of fast-aging population . |
| 173 | The safety of the elderly parents would be one of the main concerns for the caregiver . |
| 174 | As students do not have jobs , they have to ask their parents for money . |
| 175 | With the introduction of Tribunal for the Maintenance of Parents ( Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports [ MCYS ] , 2009 ) , parents who are over 60 and incapable of supporting themselves can file petitions to seek financial support from their children . |
| 176 | With the close proximity , the physical needs of the elderly will be better provided for by their children . |
| 177 | This money can be used for themselves or their descendants . |
| 178 | For instance , the government has passed the Maintenance of Parents Act to allow elderly parents to file lawsuit against their children who have failed to carry out filial obligations |
| 179 | Finally , the responsibility of taking care of the elderly should first rest on the children , not the government , if the elderly has any working child . |
| 180 | An example would be the Maintenance of Parents Act in Singapore , where parents could lawfully demand support from their children in court . |
| 181 | In line with the above efforts to tackle the problem of the graying population , the government introduced the Parents ' Maintenance Act in 1996 to impose on filial piety . |
| 182 | For example , in Singapore , elderly parents may file in court if their children do not provide for them . |
| 183 | The policy will benefit not only the purchaser in terms of cost , but it will also help to propagate the importance of filial piety in society . |
| 184 | One example is the passing of the Maintenance of Parents Act that allows parents to sue their children for financial support ( Wijaya , 2009 ) . |
| 185 | This act came into force in 1995 to give parents above 60 years old who could not support themselves the legal means to claim maintenance from their children . |
| 186 | Doing so will not only lighten the burden on government agencies to use excessive amount of public spending on the aged , but the awareness of the importance of filial piety will be increased as well . |
| 187 | First and foremost , as Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports has announced , a law was revised in 1996 for aged parents to seek maintenance from their children , who are capable of supporting them and yet unwilling to do so . |
| 188 | This new social phenomenon could be curbed by implementing the Maintenance of Parents Act . |
| 189 | An example would be the increasing number of elderly suing their children for not supporting them in Singapore . |
| 190 | This means that the elders will either have to work , use their savings or to approach their relatives for money to buy the products . |
| 191 | As suggested in Channel NewsAsia ( Asha Popatlal , 2009 ) , there are more elderly citizens applying to the Tribunal for Maintenance of Parents over the last 12 months . |
| 192 | For instance , the Singapore government has passed the Maintenance of Parents Act to allow elderly parents to file lawsuits against their children for financial support ( Khalik , 2009 ) . |
| 193 | They are MediSave , Parent Maintenance Act , and Age-friendly policy . |

| 0 | In conclusion , revealing of the genetic test result by the carrier of genetic risk is not only his responsibility to his family members ; it also allows his relatives to have a chance of early detection of the disease and possible treatment as a result . |
|---|---|
| 1 | This research result is a testimony that majority of those who went for genetic testing acknowledge that by sharing their genetic result with their family members , something can be done to reduce the risk of contracting a disease . |
| 2 | Since this genetic testing begins with an affected family member , it provides the best opportunity to identify relatives who may be at risk for a life- threatening condition . |
| 3 | Besides that , family members and close relatives of the affected individual will benefit greatly by participating in similar genetic testing and detecting the genetic disorder as soon as possible for early treatment . |
| 4 | In addition , to inform family and relatives of one unfavourable genetic conditions is an act of responsibility and care by which similar genetic testing can be executed for early detection and treatments . |
| 5 | In conclusion , the disclosure of genetic disorders of the carrier to the relatives can be very beneficial to their welfare as they can take preventive medical intervention and also decide whether to bear a child who might suffer the similar effects . |
| 6 | The predisposition of the relatives of affected patients towards the genetic disorders can also be predicted . |
| 7 | Another point that supports the need of revealing such results to the individual 's relatives is to allow early detection of inheritable diseases that his or her relatives might be prone to . |
| 8 | Some of those who receive a positive testing result , despite the shock and the devastating situation that they face , will consider the interests of other family members and inform their relatives of the existence of this genetic risk in the family . |
| 9 | Firstly , it is important for a carrier of a known genetic risk to disclose his or her genetic information to family members as the latter may be at risk of having the same genetic disorder . |
| 10 | Thus , when a carrier of a known genetic risk discloses the results to his or her relatives , more people will be able to take precautionary measures if tested positive . |
|---|---|
| 11 | In conclusion , the obligation of a carrier of a known genetic risk to reveal the results to one 's relatives could assist them in adapting to changes in their lives and allow researchers to find a cure for a particular genetic disorder . |
| 12 | However , it has been known that genetic testing may detect mutation in genes and hence , genetic counselling can be given to relatives of affected patients . |
| 13 | It is therefore important to provide close relatives who might be at risk a chance to test whether they are affected by the genetic disease . |
| 14 | Some may argue that at-risk relatives should be informed about their susceptibility to genetic diseases , so that they can take early precaution or seek appropriate treatment to the diseases . |
| 15 | Thus , genetic testing can be beneficial to affected patients and their relatives . |
| 16 | This can allow or prompt the rest of the family to go for similar tests to determine if they have developed the same genetic disorders . |
| 17 | Some suggest that revealing of genetic results could benefit family members as they could seek appropriate medical treatment if tested positive |
| 18 | Thus , revealing genetic test results to relatives is critical to draw their attention on the hereditary diseases . |
| 19 | Thus , the revelation of one 's genetic test results to family and relatives , benefits them . |
| 20 | Thus an individual of known genetic risk should be obligated to reveal test results to relatives because it brings awareness concerning the risk of inheriting the disease to the foreground , not only to the person tested , but for his or her relatives as well . |
| 21 | Hence , there might be carriers of the same genetic disorder within the same family who can share experiences to help the carrier to understand his or her condition better if the carrier is obligated to reveal the testing result . |
| 22 | Admittedly , letting family members know about the genetic risk might cause families to be even more united and they will have a better understanding about their inherited genes . |
| 23 | The possibilities of other family members and blood relatives carrying similar gene mutation are relatively higher when a family history of the particular genetic disorder is detected . |
| 24 | Considering the genetically affected individual 's need of additional care and companionship as well as the early detection of similar inherited disorder amongst their blood relatives , an individual of known genetic risk ought to disclose the results of genetic testing to his close relatives . |
| 25 | Indeed , early knowledge of the risk of developing genetic diseases might help family members to take preventive measures to reduce the onset of such diseases . |
| 26 | Besides that , relatives of genetically tested patients should know about their genetic testing results so that a proper family planning can be made ( Anonymous , 1999 ) . |
| 27 | Carriers of such disease should reveal the testing results to the relatives so that the latter can do proper family planning to avoid passing the defective genes to the next generation . |
| 28 | Furthermore , relatives could go for their own testing to ascertain their chances to the genetic disorder as an individual . |
| 29 | In conclusion , the result of genetic testing that informs us about our hereditary disease will not only affect us as individuals but also our family . |
| 30 | On the other hand , critics argue that by revealing results of the carrier of a known genetic risk to his relatives , this will benefit the relatives ' health and well-being greatly . |
| 31 | The information gathered enables one to know how the genetic makeup of human correlate to a particular cause of disease.1 However the availability of such tests has brought about other ethical issues , like should the results be announced to the carrier of known genetic risk to his relatives . |
| 32 | It helps in early detection of genetic disorders that are inherited in families and family planning . |
| 33 | However , genetic testing result may not only concern the tested individual himself or herself but also their family members as they share the same genetic make-up and are equally at risk of contracting a certain disease ( Genetic testing helps cancer survivors fight for their loved ones , 2007 ) . |
| 34 | In conclusion , one who has genetic disorder or disease is obliged to reveal his genetic testing results because by revealing them , there are several benefits for him , his family and people around him . |
| 35 | If genetic testing is revealed to relatives and they end up having the same disease , they could be saved by preventing the disease to develop further . |
| 36 | With such , improved or new treatment is possible for genetic related diseases and could possibly benefit the carrier or even his or her family members . |
| 37 | Not only is it his responsibility to share his genetic testing results with his family ( Forrest K , 2003 ) , informing his family members will give them a chance for early detection of the disease as well as to make necessary family planning ( Agatha M , Denise B and Kathleen A , 2009 ) . |
| 38 | If they know that their family tends to have such disease , they can have another genetic testing to verify their own condition . |
| 39 | If family members have similar genetic background , individuals may feel the need to disclose their results . |
| 40 | However , such information would encourage them to perform the disease testing in which genetic results may allow them to make informed decisions especially during family planning . |
| 41 | In addition , informed relatives who then find out their genetic condition - whether as carrier or sufferer of that particular genetic disease , are given a chance to secure financial schemes for future use . |
| 42 | This is even more so if the genetic testing showed the possibility of the other family members and relatives may also have the genetic disorder . |
| 43 | Therefore , it is encouraged to reveal the results of genetic testing , especially to relatives . |
| 44 | Therefore revealing the results to the family members is act of beneficence as the risk gene carrier is doing good in informing the family of the possible medical problems that they may face . |
| 45 | It is undoubtedly beneficial to inform relatives that they might be at risk of developing a hereditary disease when an individual 's genetic tests turn out to be positive ( University of Colorado Health Sciences Center , 2004 ) . |
| 46 | Revealing the results could assist one 's relatives in preparing for constructive life changes and allow researchers to find a cure for a particular genetic disorder . |
| 47 | Since the affected individual shares similar genes within the family , he or she is obligated to let his or relatives know about the genetic condition . |
| 48 | Hence , by informing his family about the known genetic risk he has , a carrier may encourage his family to go for genetic testing too . |
| 49 | Through the support and care provided by family members , patients could accept the genetic risk eventually . |
| 50 | Hence , genetic testing results should be revealed to family members for early detection purposes . |
| 51 | This is because individuals ' relative or parents can go for genetic testing and check whether they had inherited any mutated gene ( s ) or not . |
| 52 | However , in reality , the result of genetic testing is so important and could give impact to all his family as it may comprise information about hereditary disease . |
| 53 | This enables healthcare professionals to know the extent of the genetic mutation in the genes and hence , provide advice or genetic counselling to patients and their relatives . |
| 54 | Family members of the individual requesting genetic testing should also have the rights to know about the results of such testing . |
| 55 | When an individual is identified as having a gene mutation associated with a disease , his family and relatives may also have that gene mutation . |
| 56 | This is clearly true as test results indirectly reflect genetic information related to family members as there is a possibility of them inheriting the disease too . |
| 57 | Moreover , information of genetic risk from a carrier will serve as guidance in his or her relatives ' reproductive decision making . |
| 58 | Secondly , acquisition of genetic information of a carrier by his/her relatives can help reduce the possibility of getting the disease . |
| 59 | Secondly , by divulging one 's genetic risk to one 's relatives , the chances of researchers finding a cure for that risk would be higher . |
| 60 | Accessible genetic results are also important to patients and their families . |
| 61 | First of all , it is a known fact that genetic conditions may be hereditary and thus indirectly involve the relatives of the carrier as well , putting the carrier 's relatives at a possible risk of having the condition as well . |
| 62 | In addition to the importance of sharing genetic test results to reduce disease risk and practise family planning , support but not discrimination by family is the foremost form of assistance to those who are tested positive for genetic diseases during their illness . |
| 63 | If the carrier is known to have a genetic risk , there may be a chance that other family members or relatives have that disorder or disease which may be found in their genes . |
| 64 | In conclusion , we can see that genetically tested results revealed by patients to their family members do bring advantages . |
| 65 | By talking to their relatives about their genetic risk , they will gain support and encouragement . |
| 66 | Since some of the genetic diseases and disorders are hereditary , therefore there are potential risks for the family members to inherit the disease . |
| 67 | The right of relatives or families to know the genetic test results can be seen in a WHO report on medical genetic issues ( http : //www.who.int ) , which address that family members have a moral obligation to share genetic information with each another , and thus they can choose whether to be tested themselves . |
| 68 | For example , after undergoing genetic testing , people may find out that their siblings also have the same genetic disorder as them . |
| 69 | ( EmaxHealth ) Therefore , with the genetic test result at hand , family members can decide whether to bear children with possible genetic disorders which would affect their lives drastically and also set preventive medical treatments . |
| 70 | If the relatives know the possible risk in genetic disease , they can request for the genetic test for themselves . |
| 71 | Secondly , sharing of genetic test results can improve family health . |
| 72 | By revealing their genetic testing results to their relatives , their family members will be able to help them take note of what they should avoid and assess the occupational risks at their workplace . |
| 73 | Firstly , disclosure of genetic test results to family members can reduce the risk of danger of the genetic disorder by treating it early and before any effects of the illness starts to kick in . |
| 74 | Obligation to reveal the results would help the family members in early detection of the genetic disorder which is followed by treatment , making important life decisions and facilitate the carriers to choose the best medical decisions . |
| 75 | Hence , it is better for the individual to share his genetic test result with his family members . |
| 76 | Moreover , having learnt about a personal genetic risk , some theorists , for example , Wilson ( 2000 ) , Baker , Schuette and Uhlmann ( 1998 ) , believe that the approach to deal with results of genetic testing involves not only medical , surgical and educational intervention , but also provision of social and emotional support ; hence , a carrier of known genetic risk should tell his or her close relatives about it . |
| 77 | Nevertheless , one can seek assistance from genetic health professionals to address the above problems by " having the genetic health professionals to communicate the genetic information to family members at the client 's request " ( Forrest et al , 2007 ) . |
| 78 | By doing so , genetic risks to future generation can be prevented , family relation can be maintained and at-risk relatives with abnormalities can begin treatment for their genetic disorders . |
| 79 | However , genetic information of an individual susceptible to a particular genetic disease inevitably concerns family members who usually also share the same set of genes . |
| 80 | In conclusion , relatives play an instrumental role to help the patient in facing the genetic disease . |
| 81 | Besides being able to receive family support , letting others know about one 's genetic condition is also a form of relieving unnecessary stress . |
| 82 | Opponents may argue that the individual 's family also have their human rights , that is , the rights to know the result of the genetic test . |
| 83 | Thus , revelations of genetic testing results to family members are essential in family planning . |
| 84 | One of the reasons why affected individuals should let their relatives know about their genetic disorders is for early detection purposes ( Goh , 2005 ) . |
| 85 | With effective implementation of laws to protect genetic disease patients , they should always be encouraged and prompted to reveal the genetic test results to their relatives so that they can benefit from the testing equally . |
| 86 | There is an argument stating that revealing individuals ' genetic test results will benefit the individuals ' relative or parents . |
| 87 | Firstly , the revelation of a known genetic risk to one 's relatives allows them to prepare for constructive changes in their lives . |
| 88 | First , the result affects the future of one family as the genetic disorder can be inherited by the next generation and in the event that some members of the family have this genetic disorder too . |
| 89 | It is ethically right for the individual to inform his relatives , and the relatives after knowing that they may have the genetic disorder can seek out medical assistances to reduce the occurrence/severity of the disease . |
| 90 | Besides that , family members can have proper planning before giving birth if a medical history of hereditary disease in the family is known . |
| 91 | For example , if the result shows that the patient is a carrier of a genetic disease , there is a great possibility that the family members also have the same disease . |
| 92 | The first reason is related to the patient 's family who may share the risk of inheriting the genetic defects if one of the family 's members is diagnosed with a dominant genetic disease ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 93 | If a genetic disease runs in the family , a genetic disease carrier 's family members and relatives will have a high chance of developing the same inherited disease . |
| 94 | On the other hand , the other family members can also know what the other underlying problems are that they may encounter in the future as the genetic testing will not only detect the carrier 's risk genes but also other problems that he or she may have in the future . |
| 95 | Sharing of genetic results not only benefits himself , but also his family and relatives . |
| 96 | It is also commonly known that if a person has genetic disease , there is a chance that his or her relatives would have the same disease too . |
| 97 | It is often used to diagnose inherited diseases and to determine a child 's genetic parents . |
| 98 | The patients knows the different behavioral patterns of his family members and will know the best way to approach them regarding their genetic condition . |
| 99 | Having undergone genetic testing , the individuals involved should be well aware of the implications it might have on them and their families ' lives . |
| 100 | Most genetic disorders have a high percentage possibility of inheritance and also due to genetic similarities , appear in family members . |
| 101 | However , since family history always serves as a guide for genetic testing as passing the mutated genes within the family is of high possibility , results of genetic testing would have implications in the individual who tested it , as well as the family members . |
| 102 | When one is tested positive for genetic diseases which can cause one to expose others to danger , one should reveal the result to his or her relatives . |
| 103 | First of all , sharing information and test results with the family can reduce potential disease and even cancer risk among the relatives . |
| 104 | This is because the carrier got the disease through a parent , and thus the carrier 's siblings and the carrier 's children might have also gotten the altered gene . |
| 105 | Thus , revealing one 's genetic condition to family members are proven to be beneficial and alleviate psychological pressure as compared to concealing the truth . |
| 106 | In general , if at risk relatives can anticipate the disease , measures may be taken to prevent it . |
| 107 | Secondly , it ensures that those carriers of genetic risk get the best care from family and society if they are willing to tell the test results . |
| 108 | On the other hand , an individual 's parents may have a positive response to genetic testing results . |
| 109 | While carriers of such diseases should reveal the results of their genetic testing so as to warn their relatives about the possibility of the latter being carriers as well , it is still up to their relatives to find out whether they themselves had indeed inherited any genetic disorder . |
| 110 | Nevertheless , family members should have the right to know the genetic information as they are genetically related to each other , which means that they are at the same risk also . |
| 111 | It is used to predict the risk of disease , identify carriers of disease , diagnose disease ( Genetic Testing , 2006 , para 1 ) , and can also be used to determine parents of the child . |
| 112 | In fact many published guidelines for genetic information disclosure have listed explicit statements such as 'family ' , 'family members ' or 'relatives ' to broadly include some who are at risk of a genetic condition . |
| 113 | However , potential carriers can find out about them earlier if a relative who is a known carrier reveals his genetic test results to them . |
| 114 | For example , genetic testing enables patients and their relatives who are at risk of developing genetic disorders but show no symptoms at the beginning , to predict the chances of them inheriting the genetic disorders ( Goh , 2005 ) . |
| 115 | It is also ethical to inform the relatives so that he or she can minimize the emotional trauma inflicted to the relatives if they would to find out that the genetic disorder previously unidentified had turning into an illness . |
| 116 | It means that when a person tests positive for a gene mutation , his relatives may also have this mutation since they all have similar genes . |
| 117 | Lastly , by telling the results , families can reduce the chances of the next generation from getting the genetic disorder . |
| 118 | Family planning with genetic testing can help married couples to prepare themselves mentally and emotionally if the probability of them having a genetic defective child is high . |
| 119 | Firstly , when the relatives of a carrier of a known genetic risk are informed of the positive test result , the chance of early deaths of the relatives is minimised . |
| 120 | One can even educate relatives of the preventive measures of certain diseases . |
| 121 | Such early prevention and cure to fatal diseases are only possible if relatives are notified beforehand , and that responsibility lies on the individual who underwent genetic testing . |
| 122 | However , as argued before , everybody 's genes may be linked to their relatives ' genes , so it is possible for the relatives particularly their siblings to inherit the same defective gene . |
| 123 | In this respect , one should tell one 's about one 's genetic condition . This will enable one to be able to receive emotional concern , to prevent any stress build up and to allow one 's family to take precautions against the particular disease . |
| 124 | This is because , when his family members know that he is suffering from a genetic problem , they will try all means to help him to improve his condition . |
| 125 | Since the whole family shares the same set of genes , the information the individual provides through the genetic testing may have just as much meaning for the family as for him or herself ( Kahn , 2000 ) . |
| 126 | Secondly , sharing of the fact that one has a greater risk of genetic disease will encourage his relatives to go for genetic testing ( Forrest K , 2003 ) . |
| 127 | Furthermore , direct relatives of the individual can also plan for their own future , with the knowledge that whatever future plans that they might have , they have to keep in mind the genetic disorder . |
| 128 | In such cases , the physician would have the right to reveal the results to the family of the individual , especially if the test results indicate that the defective gene is present , there is the possibility that others in the family have the gene as well . |
| 129 | If one loves his family , one should let them know his genetic test results . |
| 130 | It is important for individuals to share the results with their families in order to avoid diseases and benefit the whole family in the future . |
| 131 | Genetic testing can confirm one 's ancestry , paternity and the risk of them developing a disease or passing on the genetic disease to their offspring ( Lynch , 2008 ) . |
| 132 | This allows the relatives of a genetic disease patient , or even the patient himself , to recover fully from the disease . |
| 133 | However , because the whole family shares the same set of genes , they have the right to know the result of the genetic test . |
| 134 | By and large , genetic disorders can be inherited within family members as the defective gene might be passed on from one generation to another . |
| 135 | Share the results of your genetic tests with your kids - you 'll feel better . |
| 136 | Therefore , only when one tells a known genetic risk to one 's relatives , would there be a chance for medical researchers to find a cure for it , eventually saving many lives from genetic disorders . |
| 137 | The relatives can make an informed decision as to whether they want to have genetic testing done themselves . |
| 138 | Firstly , it is the responsibility of the carrier of a known genetic risk to inform his family member of their increased likelihood of having the same genetic risk ( Forrest K , 2003 ) . |
| 139 | Relatives may choose to go for a genetic test to determine their status by checking for the particular mutation known to increase the risk of developing a particular disease ( University of Colorado Health Sciences Center , 2004 ) . |
| 140 | Nonetheless , with proper genetic counseling which is usually accompanied by genetic testing itself , parents may decide the best way to deal with this information . |
| 141 | Genetic testing can check for some genetic disorder or disease such as { Hemophilia } [ HYPERLINK : http : //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemophilia ] , Huntington 's disease and Marfan Syndrome , which means that this kind of disease has a certain possibility to be inherited by the next generation . |
| 142 | In a worse case , if some members of a family have these genetic diseases , they should find solutions or treatments to cure them or at least prevent the disease from spreading . |
| 143 | Since genetic disease is hereditary and can be traced back to the ancestor , many people may inherit the disease . |
| 144 | Although the results are beneficial , it has implicated family members who are genetically common . |
| 145 | It would benefit others , as relatives of the individual known to be a carrier of the disease might be at-risk of developing the disease as well ( University of Colorado Health Sciences Center , 2004 ) . |
| 146 | Firstly , physicians are able to carry out studies on the gene occurrence in the family , by using the samples of family members . |
| 147 | Early disclosure also allows relatives to take early precautions ( Cancer.net Editorial Board , 2009 ) and prevent themselves from succumbing to the disease as well . |
| 148 | In addition , this testing can also be used to determine a child 's biological father or a person 's ancestry . |
| 149 | Firstly , informing relatives allows them to take preventive measures against diseases . |
| 150 | This is important to ensure that early steps are taken to reduce the risk of the carrier and his family developing the disease . |
| 151 | Thus the revealing of genetic results can reduce the mental burden of an individual and bring about better communication and understanding with his or her relatives . |
| 152 | Thirdly,by letting the family members and relatives know of an individual genetic risk to a particular disorder such as Huntington 's Disease , it makes them aware that such a genetic disease runs within the family . |
| 153 | Since all the family members share similar genes and DNA , the discovery of any members with a genetic risk of certain disease means that the rest of the family members are likely to have the same risk too ( US National Institute of Health , 1998 ) . |
| 154 | Although it can not be denied that the other family members to some extent also have the right to know whether they share the same suspected genes as the tested , they can choose to test their genes by themselves , rather than to depend on other people 's testing results . |
| 155 | If a person is a carrier of a genetic disease , he might pass it to his offspring . |
| 156 | Share The Results Of Your Genetic Tests With Your Kids - You 'll Feel Better . |
| 157 | However , some argue that genetic testing can potentially unravel family secrets , namely adoptions and illegitimate child ( Doukas & Berg , 2001 ) . |
| 158 | In addition , the family may consult genetic counselors to seek for advice on how to reduce . |
| 159 | The organization involved in genetic care has the authority to disclose the genetic information to appropriate people if harmful genes could lead to serious disease . If an infected individual does not reveal it then little effort is made for diagnosis and treatments ( Minkoff and Ecker , 2008 ) . |
| 160 | A genetic test is defined as an assessment of a person 's genes to determine the probablitity of inheriting abnormalities or diseases which he may pass down to future generations . |
| 161 | Not only so , genetic testing ( fingerprinting ) is also used to determine the child 's paternity . |
| 162 | Revealing of positive test results to relatives allows them to go for early detection and treatment which can possibly save lives . |
| 163 | They should know that they are vulnerable to the risk of family disease which can be inherited . |
| 164 | Considering these competing obligations faced by physicians , the genetic care and counselling organisations have devised guidelines which accept disclosure to relatives without the consent of those tested when there is going to be a high degree and immediacy of risk faced by them ( Minkoff & Ecker , 2008 ) . |
| 165 | This also allows family members to step up their preventive measures against the diseases by undergoing regular medical screening . |
| 166 | However , being the carrier , he too is a victim of this genetic disorder which was probably passed down from his parents . |
| 167 | Is is often used to detect certain suspected inherited disease in an individual or family . |
| 168 | In conclusion , the final say in the disclosure of genetic test results should lie with the patient according to the legal jurisdiction and to the fact that the patients understand the different personalities of their families and will have their best interests in mind . |
| 169 | Revealing his genetic testing result will be beneficial to himself , his employer , his family and all the people around him . |
| 170 | Firstly , if someone discovers that he or she has a particular mutation , the existence of that knowledge has immediate implications for the person 's blood relatives ( Skene , 2003 ) . |
| 171 | As genetic problems , such as Parkinson 's disease is hereditary , it will be good to prepare the carrier 's family psychologically . |
| 172 | In conclusion , it is very important for the risk genes carrier to inform the family members as he or she may help the family members to avoid some avoidable medical problems if only he or she inform them . |
| 173 | They should thus be notified so that they would be able to do the necessary family planning , especially if the individual carries a mutation that may result in a fatal genetic disorder ( { http : //www.nature.com } [ HYPERLINK : http : //www.nature.com ] , 2008 ) . |
| 174 | If a genetic disorder runs in my family , what are the chances that my children will have the condition ? . |
| 175 | For example , some genetic diseases such as " Al antitrypsin deficiency " undeniably involve the family ( Torgny & Wilcke , 1998 ) . |
| 176 | As a result , employers and insurance companies should have the right to request genetic information from their employees or clients directly , or indirectly from medical professionals who have a better interpretation of the genetic test results . |
| 177 | It is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait ; therefore there is high possibility that if an individual tested positive , his or her siblings would have one in two chance of carrying the same genetic mutation . |
| 178 | As the terminology implies , genetically inherited diseases are caused by gene or chromosomes abnormality received from antecedents and passed on to following generations . |
| 179 | For example , if the carrier of a known genetic risk has borne the burden of having a strong family history of genetic disorder for years may feel relieved when he receives a positive test result . |
| 180 | Thirdly , family members generally inherit the same set of genetic codes from their parents , and may be susceptible to similar diseases ( Jacobs , & Deatrick , 1999 ) . |
| 181 | Family medical history , onset of symptoms and an increasing number of people in the community confirmed to have it , are the reasons that lead to an individual being deemed at risk . |
| 182 | This will allow relatives to start early treatment before the disease develops . |
| 183 | This is beneficial as it helps to increase the family 's awareness and preparedness for the disease . |
| 184 | Since disorders can be passed over from parents to a child , the relatives of a carrier , obviously , have a higher chance to carry the same disorder . |
| 185 | For example , if a couple wants to have a baby , and either the father or the mother is a carrier of certain genetic problems , they would consider the probabilities of the unborn child being born with the same deficiency . |
| 186 | Thus , the unborn child may have the chance to get the disorder from his parents . |
| 187 | This is coherent to a study done by Georgetown university medical center on mothers who shared their cancer genetic test results with children . |
| 188 | Genetic Testing grants us the ability to determine an individual 's paternity and his chances of getting a genetic disorder such as Downs syndrome . |
| 189 | A research conducted by the United States ' National Institute of Health , has shown that 98 % of the respondents share their test results with their family members and 82.2 % of them did that to inform them of their medical risk ( Stoffel , Ford , Mercado , Punglia , Kohlmann , Conrad , Blanco , Shannon , Powell , Gruber , Terdiman , Chung , Syngal , 2008 ) . |
| 190 | According to the article Genetic testing is all in the family by Jeffery P. Kahn , Director of Centre for Bioethics , University of Minnesota , the family has the right to know the result of the genetic test of any member in the family . |
| 191 | Finally , the third case is about the couple knowing about the genetic disorder after having children . |
| 192 | Therefore , they need to tell the result to their closest people especially their family , thus , their family can comfort him and help him find ways to cure the disease . |
| 193 | Every person carries copies of genes that were passed down from their parents . |

| 0 | One of the major concerns of Singapore is its increasing aging population . |
|---|---|
| 1 | In conclusion , a fast aging population is a critical issue in Singapore . |
| 2 | There has been an increasing trend in problems associated with the increasing population of the aged in Singapore . |
| 3 | Many developed countries such as Singapore are faced with severe ageing population . |
| 4 | With an expanding aging population , Singapore is faced with a situation where more resources need to be allocated for the well-being of the elderly . |
| 5 | However , although aging population is a serious issue that will affect the productivity and competitiveness of Singapore , we should also note that the aging of a population is happening not only in Singapore but around the world as well . |
| 6 | An aging population poses significant challenges and significant implications for Singapore . |
| 7 | Singapore has noticed the growing pressure of an aging population . |
| 8 | It is a fact that we are experiencing an aging population problem throughout the world , especially in the developed countries such as Singapore . |
| 9 | This is especially important given Singapore 's ageing population . |
| 10 | Singapore has one of the world 's most rapidly aging population and currently this situation has started to put pressure on our economic growth , with increasing emphasis on health care for the elderly . |
|---|---|
| 11 | Being one of the fastest aging populations in the Asian region , Singapore faces many challenges in trying to overcome this aging problem . |
| 12 | Singapore is facing a fast growth of aging population . |
| 13 | Together with the increase of unemployment rates in Singapore , it presents a worrying trend of its citizens entering the retirement age of their life . |
| 14 | As a result , Singapore will face the dangers of an aging population . |
| 15 | Therefore the current problem Singapore is facing now is the aged population . |
| 16 | This trend suggests that Singapore is confronted with the problem of a rapidly fast aging population . |
| 17 | Over the recent years , there has been a large demographic shift in Singapore towards an ageing population . |
| 18 | Many countries , including Singapore , are facing the issue of aging population . |
| 19 | Longer life expectancy and a continuous fall in population have caused the aging population in Singapore to increase . |
| 20 | The aging population in Singapore is increasing . |
| 21 | Singapore is facing a shift in the distribution of population towards older ages , where the median age of the population increase , as well as a decline in fertility rates , resulting in a rise in the number of elderly in Singapore . |
| 22 | An aging population is one of the issues that faces Singapore today. . |
| 23 | In Singapore , the population is aging rapidly . |
| 24 | The population in Singapore is aging rapidly . |
| 25 | This is especially important for any aging population just like Singapore . |
| 26 | All in all , it has become a fact that Singapore is currently facing a rapidly ageing population . Many problems will arise should public spending on the aged be limited and this include increased financial burden on the fewer offsprings , insufficient funds for rising healthcare development costs and weakened economic competiveness . |
| 27 | As Singapore 's population ages , there are many questions on how to help the elderly cope with the aging process . |
| 28 | Being one of the top aging populations in Asia , Singapore has to be prepared for the challenges to be faced currently ,or in the future , when Singapore turns into a prominent ageing society . |
| 29 | Singapore has severe population aging . |
| 30 | The aging population in Singapore has been growing . |
| 31 | Hence , public spending on the aged in Singapore has a high possibility of rising in order to cope with the shift in aging structure . |
| 32 | At this time , the effects of the looming aging population is becoming more evident and the increased pressure on public spending for the aged has left Singapore pondering on how to spend prudently . |
| 33 | In a developed country like Singapore , an aging population often brings about multiple problems . |
| 34 | ) With such a sizeable number of aged in a small country like Singapore , it will definitely have many socio-economic implications ; and thus the government should generate more public polices to care for this group of people in the years to come . |
| 35 | As one of the most rapid aging population in Asia , Singapore encounters the challenge of developing policies to accommodate this evolving age structure . |
| 36 | In many developed countries , the aging population is rising and Singapore is no exception . |
| 37 | " As Singapore becomes accustomed to being an affluent and rapidly ageing society , the issue of financing the aged has become more pressing requiring reassessment of the existing arrangements . |
| 38 | As such , judging from Singapore 's current demography , the aging population will be a long term situation . |
| 39 | In Singapore , increasing life expectancy together with high-quality healthcare and declining fertility rates are the causes of the graying population . |
| 40 | In recent years , many countries have begun to face the issue of ageing demographics and undeniably , Singapore is one of the fastest ageing populations in Asia . |
| 41 | The aging process requires special attention because due to the low birth rate , Singapore has became an aging country with a large fraction of its population being aged . |
| 42 | Singapore is gradually moving into an aging population due to low birth rate and long life expectancy . |
| 43 | In conclusion , Singapore government has played a huge part in managing the ageing population . |
| 44 | As the aging population in Singapore increases , more and more money have to be allocated to the aging population . |
| 45 | The aging processes in Singapore with its ensuing serious impacts , has caught people 's attention. . |
| 46 | As Singapore 's living standard is getting higher and higher as the years go by , there is a need for people to save more money for their old age . |
| 47 | The aging community has become an eminent issue in Singapore . |
| 48 | Populations in many developed nations are facing a demographic time bomb in the form of an ageing population , and Singapore is no exception . |
| 49 | In fact , nowadays Singapore 's population is aging too and it is one of the fastest aging populations in Asia . |
| 50 | Fast ageing in Singapore has certainly affected its labour market as the retirement rate increases . |
| 51 | An aging population , the result of a decreasing fertility rate and longer life expectancies , will certainly affect Singapore 's economy . |
| 52 | Ageing population may hurt Singapore most . |
| 53 | Singapore society 's aging process brings on numerous sets of challenges for the government . |
| 54 | It is even more vital for a small city-state like Singapore , to deal with its ageing society because the consequences of not taking into account the ageing population could bring several adverse implications on the country . |
| 55 | The aging process has indeed become a phenomenon in Singapore . |
| 56 | The efforts can be seen clearly as Singapore is now an advanced developing country . However the most predominant problem arising now is the aging population . |
| 57 | Despite the drawbacks , an aging population is linked closely to the development of Singapore . |
| 58 | The population in many developed countries is aging , and Singapore is no exception . |
| 59 | In conclusion , Singapore , as well as many European and North American countries , is facing the problem of an aging population . |
| 60 | However , Singapore is faced with an inevitable crisis : a growing aging population that is affecting the country 's economy ( Lee , 2008 ) because of the assistance the government has to render for the elderly . |
| 61 | In such a case , Singapore faces the challenge of developing public policies to accommodate the trend of aging and to gear up for a growing aging population . |
| 62 | In Asia , Singapore is one of the fastest aging populations . |
| 63 | On the whole , as Singapore 's population ages rapidly , it accentuates the need to increase public spending on the aged in order to meet greater healthcare demands and the rising cost of living . |
| 64 | However with the increase of elderly in Singapore , the number of elderly suffering from all kinds of illness also increases . |
| 65 | Singapore , like many countries in the world , is facing the same crisis - a rapid graying population . |
| 66 | With low birth rates and longer life expectancy , the aging population has become a long term problem for Singapore . |
| 67 | In the current context , public spending on the aged has been significant , especially in developed countries such as Singapore . |
| 68 | Singapore has not only faced an aging population resulting from low fertility rates , but also longer life expectancy for individuals . |
| 69 | Besides slow economic growth , one result of the ageing population in Singapore is the rising pension and healthcare costs , which forces a major increase in public spending . |
| 70 | The effects of the aging process in Singapore are as follows : |
| 71 | In the near future , it is inevitable that Singapore will have an aging population . |
| 72 | To begin with , it is undeniable that Singapore faces a greying population due to the improvement in health care standards and elderly generally require more health care . |
| 73 | It is no secret that Singapore has one of the fastest aging populations in the world . |
| 74 | Preparing for an ageing population - the Singapore experience . |
| 75 | Since the problems that tagged along with an ageing population is imminent , much more should have been done by the Singapore Government to wrestle with the difficulties associated with the ageing process . |
| 76 | Preparing for an aging population - the Singapore experience . |
| 77 | " ( Executive summary , Committee on Ageing Issues : Report on the Ageing Population ) Thus , an outcry of more spending on the aged is rising in Singapore . |
| 78 | As Singapore 's population is aging , it is the best time for them to provide for the aged . |
| 79 | Preparing For An Aging Population-The Singapore Experience |
| 80 | The elderly in Singapore are dependent on government subsidies in various areas due to the current high cost of living . |
| 81 | The population in Singapore is increasing yearly and aging rapidly ( Singapore Department of Statistics , 2008 ) . |
| 82 | Social and health challenges of aging in Singapore . |
| 83 | Aging and Economic Growth : Issues Relevant to Singapore . |
| 84 | Preparing for an Aging Population : The Singapore Experience . |
| 85 | In order for Singapore to sustain its economic development and improve the quality of life of its people , it can not afford to spend too much on the elderly . |
| 86 | Preparing for an Aging Population - The Singapore Experience . |
| 87 | Singapore is one of the fastest ageing countries in the world . |
| 88 | For the purpose of this essay , the focus will be on Singapore 's policies economic and social problems because of the problem of aging . |
| 89 | Preparing for an aging population : The Singapore Experience . |
| 90 | As a result , populations are aging rapidly and Singapore is not exempted from this trend . |
| 91 | The labour age composition has thus shifted towards the older workers , where implications towards the competitiveness of Singapore 's economy will occur , especially if older workers do not make significant contributions to the productivity growth in the economy ( Thangavelu , Yong , 2006 ) . |
| 92 | A fast aging population is an issue that most countries including Singapore can not avoid . |
| 93 | This paper examines the various reasons for allocating more public spending on the aged as the ageing population continues to grow in Singapore . |
| 94 | The problem of an aging population has been one of the top agendas in national policies and budgets for many politicians all over the world , especially for Singapore . |
| 95 | Singapore may suffer from long term economic loss while possible government support for the elderly could cause a portion of its Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) to decline . |
| 96 | ( " Singapore is aging fast " , 2004 ) This situation brings various consequences , such as decreasing productivity and the health problems of the elderly . |
| 97 | the aging of a population has become a natural process that is happening in most of the developing countries ; and Singapore is not being spared too . |
| 98 | In conclusion , an aging population may cause Singapore 's economy to decline . |
| 99 | Singapore is transforming into an aging society . |
| 100 | Nowadays , nobody can deny that an aging population is becoming one of the most serious problems to developed countries , including Singapore . |
| 101 | Over the years , the proportion of elderly ( residents aged 65 Years and over ) with respect to the whole population in Singapore has increased drastically . |
| 102 | Therefore , aging population is an issue that we can not afford to neglect and public policies should cater to this new demographic trend by focusing more on the increasing older population size . Therefore , more funds should be dedicated to projects which will better prepare Singaporeans for an aging population . |
| 103 | For instance , Singapore needs to restructure the whole health care system due to the aging population as mentioned by the Singapore Prime Minister . |
| 104 | Traditionally , the family has been the main source of support for the elderly but over the years , due to the effects of massive migration of young adults and higher cost of living in Singapore , more elderly are being deprived of such support . |
| 105 | Singapore 's population is increasingly becoming an aging population , and it would be a problem that we can not ignore . |
| 106 | With the growing number of the aged in Singapore , the government should establish its bottom line for financing public healthcare for the elderly . |
| 107 | Singapore 's Response to an Ageing Population . |
| 108 | Hence , they enjoy a longer life span which resulted in a demographic shift in Singapore today . |
| 109 | Over the years more and more elderly are being retained or employed as a result of increased median of education among the elderly and higher live expectancy ( Singapore Department of Statistics , 2009 ) . |
| 110 | With an increasing number of Singaporeans belonging to the golden age group of sixty-five years old and above , Singapore needs to deal with the financial challenges of an aging population . |
| 111 | Although that is good news , it also leads to some unpleasant problems for Singapore , such as increasing the financial burden for elderly-care . |
| 112 | " ( Fox , 2009 ) Clearly , as Singapore experiences the problem of ageing population , it is important to generate economic growth for the country to benefit the aged . |
| 113 | Ageing in Singapore : policy challenges and innovations . |
| 114 | Public spending on the elderly in Singapore is carefully designed , so as to provide the needs of the aged in the best possible way , but the fund is insufficient to support the growing aging population . |
| 115 | National Policies on Ageing and Long-term Care in Singapore . |
| 116 | One of the main causes for a growing aging population is the low fertility rate in Singapore . |
| 117 | In Singapore , it is true that government aid is important to the current generation of elderly , as the majority of them did not have or did not have enough CPF savings to last through their retirement . |
| 118 | Having one of the fastest aging populations in Asia ( Chan , 2001 ) , Singapore faces a huge challenge in developing infrastructures and public policies in terms of healthcare , housing , re- training , transportation and financial aid to accommodate this changing age structure . |
| 119 | These statistics explain why Singapore is no doubt one of the fastest aging populations in Asia . |
| 120 | As Singapore has limited resources , there is much concern about how much of the resources the government should spend on the aged . |
| 121 | Ageing Repositioned : Singapore in the New Global Demography . |
| 122 | It should be aware of issues that Singapore will be facing in years to come . |
| 123 | Singapore 's Policy Responses to Ageing , Inequality and Poverty . |
| 124 | Singapore is concerned with the growth of an ageing population because many older persons have minimal or no income . |
| 125 | In order for Singapore to prosper , money is necessary to solve the problem of ageing population . |
| 126 | In fact , Singapore has one of the fastest aging populations in Asia and therefore , there is a need for the government to develop and implement new public policies to accommodate to this newly emerging group of people in the near future . |
| 127 | Such an enormous amount would be several years of Singapore 's gross domestic product in the current economic climate . |
| 128 | It is undeniable that Singapore is facing the emerging healthcare ramifications due to the aging process . |
| 129 | " In Singapore , factors such as a relatively low birth rate and high-quality health care , which helps people live longer , contribute to the ageing population . |
| 130 | This is especially important , considering that Singapore had got one of the fastest aging populations in Asia , according to reports by the Ministry of Community Development , Youth and Sports ( incorrect in-text citation ) . |
| 131 | With an aging population , it means that older citizens form a relatively huge percentage of the total population in Singapore thus it also applies to the consumer market . |
| 132 | As the amount of money needed to invest in the respective area is huge , the government may need to consider using money from other aspects such as setting a limit to the amount of money spent on the aged if there is a situation whereby Singapore is financially strapped . |
| 133 | As with countries face the daunting task of ensuring that the needs of their elderly population are met , Singapore is not spared . |
| 134 | The situation is particularly serious in Singapore , which is the most rapidly aging of all Asian countries according to a recent story in The Business Times . |
| 135 | Easing The Aging Process in Singapore |
| 136 | In developed countries like Singapore and Japan where ageing population is an issue , the importance of public spending on the aged can outweigh that of other aspects . |
| 137 | Singaporeans are living longer . |
| 138 | Public spending should reflect the current composition of the aged citizens within the Singapore population . |
| 139 | In the long run , Singapore can still keep its global competitiveness level even though it has a big portion of aging population . |
| 140 | With the sharp decline of birth rates that we are facing now , the majority of Singaporeans will be faced with a harder task- taking care of elderly family members . |
| 141 | As Singapore has been faced with an aging population since 1990s , there has been a shortage of skilled workers and a declining birth rate . |
| 142 | In the process of taking care of the aged , Singapore will have fewer funds to invest in the other areas that are pivotal to the country 's development . |
| 143 | • Wellbeing of Elderly in Singapore . |
| 144 | Providing health care for older persons in Singapore . |
| 145 | Economic conditions in Singapore have been affected by the huge loss in wealth from the collapse of the stock market that came with global crisis . |
| 146 | However , one of the policies in Singapore includes healthcare subsidy for the elderly . |
| 147 | A decrease in the labour force due to retiring workers and the need to provide the elderly with a place to stay are the issues that the Singapore government is working on now . |
| 148 | Due to that , Singapore is facing a serious declining fertility rate that is resulting in a huge difference between the aged and the young . |
| 149 | In the context of Singapore , given the socio-economic and political disparity between the possible usages of the fund , the funding for the elderly issues remain controversial . |
| 150 | Public spending on the aged should fluctuate according to the composition of the aged citizens within the population of Singapore . |
| 151 | Although money is important for the growth of Singapore , the current problem of the ageing population must still be addressed . |
| 152 | For the next 10 years or more , Singapore have a high percentage of population consisting of the elderly . |
| 153 | Even though this trend would most likely affect Singapore negatively , the government must concern themselves with not only the increasing expenditures on the aged , but also try to divert the budget for the aged to other areas of development . |
| 154 | According to the Singapore Department of Statistics ( 2008 ) , life expectancy in Singapore continues to increase . |
| 155 | Aging Societies : Emerging Issues and Perspectives from Singapore . |
| 156 | The Politics of Ageing : Perspectives from State and Society in Singapore . |
| 157 | However as the aging population in Singapore becomes bigger in size , more research and development policies will need to be carried out to slow down the rapid growth of the aging population instead of easing the aging process . |
| 158 | This is because the public spending could come from the surpluses that Singapore has accumulated over the years . |
| 159 | As Singapore 's total fertility rate ( TFR ) decreases year after year , we are in increasing danger of having an ageing population in the very near future . |
| 160 | Recent studies have shown that Singapore is becoming one of the fastest aging populations in the world ( Bryan , 2008 ) . |
| 161 | This essay will discuss t some suggested solutions to the lack of a labour force that the demographic aging issue brings about based on the context of Singapore . |
| 162 | The ageing population in Singapore has been growing gradually since the mid 90s . |
| 163 | One of the evident examples would be the health care subsidy which has been carried out by many developed countries such as Singapore , Japan , and the U.S. Others may object that too much is being spent on the elderly and this will hinder the growth of the country which is fundamentally more essential . |
| 164 | Coping with fast ageing among Singaporeans is a slow and tough process which requires both the government and its citizens to work closely together . |
| 165 | In 2008 , Singapore was reportedly one of the Asian economies to be worst hit by an ageing population ( UBS , 2008 ) . |
| 166 | A recent example would be when the United States 's economy fell during the credit crisis , Singapore was badly impacted by the recession . |
| 167 | This would cripple the economy of Singapore , which has already been affected by the shrinking workforce . |
| 168 | As the nation prospers , these homes will appreciate in value , and Singaporeans may draw on this egg nest when they are old . |
| 169 | However , the low fertility rate in Singapore challenges this argument because the financial burden resulting from the provision of aged parents is currently increasing on fewer offspring . |
| 170 | The situation will be made worse if the country faces declining birth rate such as Singapore . |
| 171 | Singaporeans want later retirement age . |
| 172 | However , Singapore is facing a rapidly ageing population with a rise in median age from 20 in 1970 to 37 in 2009 ; there is a need to improvise our buildings ' architecture using current technology to ease the aging process . |
| 173 | ( 2009 ) Wellbeing of Elderly In Singapore . |
| 174 | The birth rate in Singapore is not able to support the uprising ageing population . |
| 175 | This makes the 'unproductive Singaporeans ' , who can not take care of their elderly , a minority group of the whole society , therefore , subsidies for such families to take care of the elderly will still be minimal . |
| 176 | In the future , Singapore may even aim to become one of the best destinations for individuals to retire in . |
| 177 | Population ageing is inevitable in many developed countries , and Singapore is no exception ( MCYS , 2006 ) . |
| 178 | In Singapore , the existing policy on employing the elderly does not do enough to allow senior workers to continue playing their roles in working community . |
| 179 | 1 ) Bryan Lee ( 2008 , June ) Ageing population may hurt Singapore . |
| 180 | This will lead to the shrinking of workforce , which will affect the economic growth of Singapore . |
| 181 | Quality of Life of the Elderly in Singapore 's Multiracial Society . |
| 182 | Having a low fertility rate would impact Singapore in the long run . |
| 183 | ( 2008 , June,28th ) Ageing population may hurt Singapore most The Straits Times . |
| 184 | If the low fertility rate continues , Singapore 's economy and labour force will eventually shrink . |
| 185 | Moreover , with less working population , Singapore 's economy would be greatly affected . |
| 186 | Consequently , there should be a threshold of public spending for the aged and the welfare programs should be a better attempt to aid everyone in Singapore equally . |
| 187 | Hence , this has caused Singaporeans who are not as proficient to become unemployed . |
| 188 | Singapore 's TFR is getting lower and lower every year because more Singaporeans are settling down at a later age . |
| 189 | In our society , the aged have been marginalized in the struggle of the survivor of the fittest as their contributive power to the society is reduced . |

| 50 | Genetic testing is a medical test used to diagnose the disorder in the genome of a person and determine if this mutation can cause a specific disease . |
| 51 | Genetic testing is used to examine the genes of a patient or a latent patient , in order to find out the causes of some diseases . |
| 52 | First , by doing genetic testing , people may be able to discover their genetic disease early . |
| 53 | The advancement of Science and Technology has lead to many possibilities , one of which is the ability to predict one 's risk of contracting certain diseases , mostly hereditary , via the study of one 's genes . |
| 54 | Thus , when a person is at risk for such a disorder , he or she may consider undergoing genetic testing . |
| 55 | Confirming or ruling out a suspected genetic condition or determine a person 's chance of developing or passing on a genetic disorder depends on the results of the genetic test . |
| 56 | Genetic testing is a development in science that enables early detection of genetic diseases ( Anonymous , 2005 ) . |
| 57 | Firstly , genetic testing helps to prevent further spread of diseases in the family lineage . |
| 58 | With current technological advancements in genetics , there are many genetic tests available for the public , from testing for inheritance diseases to terminal illnesses . |
| 59 | This concern has brought about the inauguration of genetic testing as a medical test to determine if a particular disease is caused by the abnormality . |
| 60 | Rapid development in genetic field has made genetic testing a potential method to be used in healthcare improvement . |
| 61 | If aware of it , they may choose to go through some genetic tests to check whether the disorder is present ( Scientific American , 2008 ) . |
| 62 | Technological advancements in the medical field today have offered us a variety of genetic tests . |
| 63 | Nowadays , genetic testing is becoming more and more prevalent to those who can afford and the diagnostic result can determine any possible genetic illness that an individual might suffer or carry . |
| 64 | Genetic testing is able to analyze whether a subject is likely to develop or inherit a particular genetic disease . |
| 65 | Genetic testing can be defined as the analyzing of one 's DNA to detect the possible risks of contracting a genetic disease . |
| 66 | By analysing an individual 's specific genes , some diseases such as cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia may be detected . |
| 67 | Genetic testing includes special techniques to examine the information carried by DNA which are held in the sequence of pieces of DNA called genes . |
| 68 | Genetic testing is whereby an individual 's gene is tested for abnormalities , susceptibility for diseases or any genetic disorder that can lead to either physical or mental problems , or both . |
| 69 | Hence , it is advisable to disclose the genetic testing result in order to prevent risks of diseases to the future generation . |
| 70 | Genetic testing provides us with information whether someone has a symptom ; shows whether a person is a carrier for a genetic disease ; helps expectant parents know whether an unborn child will have a genetic disease etc ( Access Excellence @ National Health Museum ) . |
| 71 | Genetic testing is then carried out to determine if a person carries genes for certain inherited disorders . |
| 72 | Nowadays , there is a new type of technology , named genetic testing , which is designed to find changes that are associated with inherited disorders ( Genetic testing , 2009 ) . |
| 73 | Genetic testing leads to diagnosis , prevention and treatment of a particular disease . |
| 74 | Modern advances in genetic research have helped scientists and doctors learn more about genes and how they affect us . |
| 75 | As science and technology progress , we can now detect the presence of any genetic disorder in an individual through genetic testing . |
| 76 | This is due to the legislation polices that have been implemented for genetic testing |
| 77 | In conclusion , the individual with the positive result in genetic testing which shows he or she is a carrier of a known genetic risk should reveal this . |
| 78 | Its general purpose is to check if one has the potential to develop certain genetic diseases . |
| 79 | Advancements in medical science have led to an increase in the number of people undergoing genetic testing . |
| 80 | Genetic testing is a specific medical test to look out for a particular part of the genes . |
| 81 | Genetic tests are laboratory techniques used to determine whether a person has the probability of getting a genetic disorder . |
| 82 | It is a method where the person 's DNA is taken and isolated to test for the presence of any defects or specific genes that could cause any future onset of disorders or diseases ( Genetic testing , n.d. ) . |
| 83 | The results obtained from a genetic test can exclude an alleged genetic condition or help verify if a person is a carrier of a genetic disease or have a chance to develop a genetic disorder in future ( U.S National Library of Medicine , 2009 , para . |
| 84 | Hence , when an individual requesting genetic testing comes up with an interesting exploration , it may change the perspective in looking into the subject , for instance , treating cancer , AIDS or some hereditary diseases . |
| 85 | Genetic testing is the newest technology aimed to " test for genetic disorders " , with " direct examination of the DNA molecule " also included ( Human Genome Program , 2008 ) . |
| 86 | They go through medical tests to detect changes in their genes , thus identifying the possibility of them or their related-family member developing a inherited disorder ( Genetic Home Reference , 2009 ) . |
| 87 | On one hand , it is very useful for diagnosing many kinds of genetic disease . |
| 88 | This is made possible through a series of genetic tests on an individual . |
| 89 | Genetic testing is a kind of test which determines the vulnerabilities of an individual to inherit genetic disorders ( U.S National Library of Medicine , 2009 , para . |
| 90 | Genetic testing is a type of medical test that identifies changes in chromosomes and genes and the results can determine a person 's chance of developing or passing on inherited disorders like Huntington 's disease and cancer . |
| 91 | Nowadays , with advanced medical technology , people can apply genetic testing to identify changes in chromosomes , genes , or proteins ( Genetic Home Reference , 2009 ) . |
| 92 | The purpose of genetic testing is to identify changes in chromosomes , genes , or proteins which are associated with inherited disorders . |
| 93 | Genetic testing is the testing of the human genes to know whether there are mutations or defects in the genes ( Genetic Research and Genetic Testing , 2005 ) . |
| 94 | Genetic testing is a technique to examine genes or markers near the genes , chromosomes and proteins to test the signs of a disease or disorder in DNA . |
| 95 | It is a technique to examine the DNA molecule ( building blocks of genes ) for several purposes such as predicting or diagnosing inheritable genetic disorders , prenatal or newborn screening and to aid in forensic science . |
| 96 | Secondly , revealing the result of genetic testing would help in making important life decisions . |
| 97 | As science develops rapidly , genetic testing , one of the most advanced technologies , has become a common component of medical care . |
| 98 | Advancements in genetic science have resulted in new discoveries in diagnosing , treating or preventing diseases ( Shaw , 1995 ) . |
| 99 | The advantages of genetic testing include diagnosis of current or future diseases , prevention or early treatment and reducing disease risk in future generations ( ; Riper , 2005 ) . |
| 100 | Rapid advances in genetic research and technology led to important advances in the detection of genetic conditions and diseases ( Chris and Bryn 2002 ) . |
| 101 | Genetic testing predicts an individual 's inherent risks developing a genetic disease . |
| 102 | As such , genetic testing is becoming more readily accessible for people to have their genes tested for any indication of greater risk of developing any diseases ( US National Institute of Health , 1998 ) . |
| 103 | Potential individuals who are at risk of developing a genetic disorder or disease normally undergo genetic testing . |
| 104 | People can predict the probability of developing some genetic diseases with this technological advancement . |
| 105 | Proper plans for the future could be made if a carrier knows in advance that he or she has a genetic disease . |
| 106 | As DNA technology advances , our ability to test individuals for genetic disorders is increasing significantly . |
| 107 | Genetic testing is actually the genetic diagnosis of inheritable diseases which are caused by an abnormality in an individual 's genome . |
| 108 | There are many types of genetic testing , such as late-onset disorders and newborn screening . |
| 109 | The ability to identify more genes which are related to specific disorders increases dramatically as the genetic technology develops vigorously . |
| 110 | Secondly , being able to access one 's genetic information will reveal the list of diseases one is susceptible to , and the one who possesses the information may have an ulterior interest . |
| 111 | Some of them may show a positive result as a carrier of a known genetic disease . |
| 112 | Genetic testing is a medical test , using blood or tissue from a patient that can definitively determine if a mutation in the genome of the patient is causing a specific disease ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 113 | Genetic testing is a form of medical examination that determines whether an individual is at risk or diagnosed to have any inherited genetic disorders or has the potential to pass it on to the next generation ( , 2009 ) . |
| 114 | The rapid advancements in genetic research and technology over the last few decades have led to a host of important advances in the detection of genetic conditions and diseases . |
| 115 | According to the National Cancer Institute ( n.d. ) in the United States , genetic testing is a DNA analysis done to disclose the increased risk of development of a certain disease or disorder caused by genetic mutation . |
| 116 | When they are informed of the potential risk of the mutation that could lead to a genetic disease that is also hereditary , they can undergo their own genetic tests in order to determine the extent of the mutation risk as soon as possible . |
| 117 | This is a good move as the family now can prepare themselves to undergo the same genetic testing to know the possibility of them carrying the same mutated or defective genes as the carrier . |
| 118 | The results of a genetic test has both pros and cons as it aids to predict the likelihood of individuals of developing or passing a genetic disorder onto their children ( Procter 2002 ) . |
| 119 | Since genetic testing is beneficial , some governments have come up with legal procedures that would protect sufferers from genetic discrimination . |
| 120 | Genetic testing , by definition , may be done for various reasons , including the diagnosis of a genetic disease in an individual , the identification of future disease risks to individual unborn children or the prediction of drug responses ( MedicineNet , 2002 ) . |
| 121 | With the information that the individual acquires through genetic testing , he or she can share with the family members so that they can tackle the problems head on . |
| 122 | According to the National Human Research Genome Institute ( 2009 ) , genetic testing is a type of medical test that identifies alterations in a person 's gene , chromosome or the level of key proteins coded for by specific genes . |
| 123 | Genetic testing is a scientific method that is used to determine a person 's chance of developing an inherited disease . |
| 124 | In other words , knowing the risks of the genetic disorder can allow preventive medical treatment to reduce the risks of danger to the affected individual . |
| 125 | Genetic testing is a process that diagnoses an individual 's diseases based on their genes through biochemical measurements . |
| 126 | Lastly , revealing positive test results might increase the number of people going for genetic testing . |
| 127 | Secondly , genetic testing allows oneself to be prepared upon knowing that a relative of theirs has a genetic risk . |
| 128 | Genetic testing is the study of a person 's genes , chromosomes and proteins to determine whether the person is prone to a certain kind of disease and whether the person is a carrier or not ( Cancer.net , 2009 ) . |
| 129 | Genetic testing allows early detection of diseases , which may be useful to mankind . |
| 130 | In genetic testing , a patient 's DNA is tested for mutation and DNA is obtained from his/her blood sample . |
| 131 | According to the US national institute of health , genetic testing is the examination of a person 's DNA taken from cells in his or her blood , tissues or other body fluids that exhibit a disease or disorder ( . ) . |
| 132 | When the consequences of the specific disorder in question are treatable , most people would agree that genetic testing makes sense . |
| 133 | The increasing awareness of the usefulness of genetic testing has prompted many to undergo such testing . |
| 134 | In recent years , development in technologies of genetic testing has increased the ease of access for individuals to genetic tests . |
| 135 | It allows a person to know if he has a genetic disorder . |
| 136 | Therefore , availability of genetic information will help ease the pressure on the patient and also allow many to go through early treatment or take preventive measures . |
| 137 | Genetic testing can be classified as a medical test that detects changes in the genes , chromosomes or proteins . |
| 138 | Genetic testing is a type of testing which identifies changes in chromosomes , genes or proteins . |
| 139 | Genetic testing includes gene tests , chromosomal tests and biochemical tests that identify result abnormalities or alterations . |
| 140 | An individual can request and afford to undergo genetic testing to find out whether or not his body houses a defective gene . |
| 141 | With the test , people are able to understand the conditions of the diseases caused by mutated genes inherited from their parents . |
| 142 | In conclusion , although on the surface there seems to be disturbing issues in sharing genetic information , when observed in depth , the information shared can be an advantage to the individual as well as those around him . |
| 143 | Indeed , research teams should have a direct access to the genetic results so that the further genetic sequence on DNA could be unmasked in a faster pace . |
| 144 | Genetic testing is a type of medical test that is used to find changes in genes , chromosomes and protein ( Genetic Home Reference , 2009 ) . |
| 145 | As you can see , for disorders that are preventable or treatable , most people agree that genetic testing makes sense . |
| 146 | Genetic testing is used to test for genetic disorders , such as Alzheimer 's disease and Huntington 's disease . |
| 147 | The Oxford Dictionary defines genetic testing as the sequencing of human DNA in order to discover genetic differences , anomalies , or mutations that may prove pathological . |
| 148 | It also provides understanding of specific gene occurrences to others ( Centre for Genetic Education , n.d. ) . |
| 149 | When they go for the testing , they are able to know if they are positive or negative for the presence of the specific defective gene . |
| 150 | Secondly , the genetic test 's result can help the individual to make a better decision in future ( Norrgard , 2008 ) . |
| 151 | If his family or relatives are found to have the same gene mutation , early treatment or preventive measures can be taken . |
| 152 | Genetic testing is a process in which a one 's DNA or an { embryo } [ HYPERLINK : http : //dictionary.reference.com/browse/embryo ] 's { DNA } [ HYPERLINK : http : //dictionary.reference.com/browse/DNA ] is abstracted and examined for the existence of particular { genes } [ HYPERLINK : http : //dictionary.reference.com/browse/genes ] or deficiency that could signify the future attack of certain disease . |
| 153 | This kind of technique provides convincing results of the gene information that the individual carries . |
| 154 | [ 1 ] Genetic testing does have many advantages in today 's society . |
| 155 | Genetic testing basically uses laboratorial techniques to examine the genes of an individual and identify any inheritable disease like Huntington 's disease . |
| 156 | With advances in technology , many genetic diseases which were once considered untreatable might be cured in the near future ( Allen , 2006 , Future samples , para . |
| 157 | Genetic testing is designed specifically to detect differences in deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA ) segments . |
| 158 | Genetic testing is a scientific process that studies changes in chromosomes , genes or proteins . |
| 159 | Genetic testing refers to the reading of the human genome to identify if one is subjected to genetically linked diseases , such as Alzheimer 's disease . |
| 160 | People undergo medical tests to determine if they have a certain type of inherited genes associated with an inherited disease and whether they are at risk of getting it ( A.M , 2009 ) . |
| 161 | Thus , by being informed about the genetic results of a carrier , the carrier 's family members can better plan their future and be mentally prepared for the worst . |
| 162 | Subsequently , they might choose to go for genetic tests . |
| 163 | In recent years of the 21st century , a vast majority of people have arrived at a similar cognitional conjunction of the general idea of genetic testing , which is extensively portrayed as an effective technique to identify crime suspects or catastrophe victims in various popular " crime scene investigation " television programmes . |
| 164 | It has been used for years to identify genetic diseases in humans . |
| 165 | In sum , revealing genetic results will be beneficial to the patients as well as companies involved in the recruitment process . |
| 166 | It allows new possibilities of genetic testing and more to come ( Clarke & Parsons , 1997 ) . |
| 167 | Hence , if the results of genetic testing are allowed to reveal to individuals , such phenomena will happen more frequently than before and it will make a difference on society . |
| 168 | Genetic testing is a medical test which looks at the DNA makeup of an individual . |
| 169 | In future , genetic testing may be more common and more people may feel the need to share their genetic results . |
| 170 | Such is the case for the genetic disorder Phenylketonuria which can be identified by genetic testing . |
| 171 | Over the years , genetic testing has become more available to the public . |
| 172 | some examples of genetic tests are newborn screening , diagnostic testing , carrier testing , prenatal testing and others . |
| 173 | Some examples of genetic testing are diagnostic testing and pre-natal testing ( Mehlman , 1999 , para 1 ) . |
| 174 | Genetic testing is the process of direct examination of a person 's DNA molecule . |
| 175 | The testing is usually done to find changes related with inherited diseases or disorders . |
| 176 | Therefore , revelation of genetic test results to others , benefits the individual . |
| 177 | Genetic testing is the analysis of genes , chromosomes , RNA and proteins . |
| 178 | In recent years , genetic tests have grown in number , accuracy and availability . |
| 179 | Secondly , a well-informed relative of the carrier 's genetic disease is crucial as they can provide support towards the carrier . |
| 180 | Genetic testing is a DNA-based test which involves direct examination of the DNA molecule . |
| 181 | Genetic testing includes scientific methods in biology , chemistry , and sometimes even biochemical tests . |
| 182 | Hence , by having a requirement to reveal the genetic results , rational decisions will often be made to the benefit of the individual as a group discussion always comes up with fruitful conclusion . |
| 183 | Having known that he is at risk of a genetic condition , an individual will be able to anticipate the possibility that he might be afflicted with the disease and mentally prepare for that possibility . |
| 184 | Firstly , result of genetic testing should be fully disclosed as it enables a third party to get treatment or prevention before the condition worsens ( Maxwell & Mehlman , 1999 ) . |
| 185 | If individuals ' relative or parents had inherited any mutated gene ( s ) , they can undergo preventive health measures . |
| 186 | Procter ( 2002 ) supported his view that the adults will have better decision making skills to undergo genetic testing that helps to reduce the chance of developing an inherited disorder or passing the disorders to their offspring . |
| 187 | In recent years , there has been an increasing trend of individuals coming forward to request for genetic testing . |
| 188 | For instance , a ten year-old child could undergo genetic testing and predict the risk of getting Huntingdon 's disease in middle age . |
| 189 | Examples of genetic tests are newborn screening , diagnostic testing , carrier testing , and prenatal testing . |
| 190 | The history of genetic testing dates back to half a century ago where diseases such as PKU ( phenylketonuria ) , an " inborn error of metabolism " in which mental retardation is caused by an amino acid buildup in the blood , was tested on newborns ( Lewis , 2008 ) . |

| 0 | However , the innovation process takes a long time and demands more efforts as well as costs . |
|---|---|
| 1 | However ; because of its large scale and many other factors involved , it will take more time and more cost to finish the whole innovation . |
| 2 | However the cost to finance this project will be high as much research and development has to be done . |
| 3 | A majority of these limitations would increase the cost of the innovation and hence require careful design . |
| 4 | Developing a new technology usually requires plenty of time , therefore creative thinking and innovation is required . |
| 5 | Furthermore , the designing process is a long term investment as it may require engineers to spend a lot of time and money in order to come out with an innovative product . |
| 6 | However , it is really hard to meet all the needs of the rapid innovation-development . |
| 7 | As a result , research and development , which are the first steps of innovation , become more and more difficult . |
| 8 | However , this method may not be suitable for developing and undeveloped countries because it costs a lot of money , and the technology required is also very high . |
| 9 | Because of market demands , researchers have to work overloaded so as to come up with the technology faster . |
| 10 | The development of the technical aspects of a technology involves the devotion of large amount of resources , which will result in increased cost . |
|---|---|
| 11 | First of all , some opponents may think that it will cost large amount of funds to develop this technology . |
| 12 | Thus in the course of engineering design , one usually needs much money for getting pertinent information and testing and implementing the solution . |
| 13 | Many projects incurred high costs due to extended periods of research and development , thus it is economically more sensible to give priority to a project that has an earlier delivery date . |
| 14 | Although it would take years to develop such advanced technology and probably cost quite a large sum of money , research studies have to be done to tackle the faster mounting nuclear waste problem . |
| 15 | Therefore it is extremely time-consuming to develop a new technology . |
| 16 | Therefore , developing a technology by research may require more work and developing a technology serendipitously will need more attention to details in daily life . |
| 17 | In addition , funding remained a major problem of technology development because science and technology study and every steps in an engineering design process are expensive . |
| 18 | Moreover , it costs a lot to build a modern working environment and high-tech facilities . |
| 19 | Achievement requires a lot of work and thus would take a long time . |
| 20 | But because of the high operating temperature , it means that the materials being used must have the ability to withstand extremely high temperature in order to sustain the process and therefore additional cost is needed to research and purchase these materials . |
| 21 | The process of engineering and designing a new innovation is normally a long and difficult one . |
| 22 | However , by producing an innovative product on the market , it is not an easy task to achieve . |
| 23 | Another concern is that the technology is difficult to obtain . |
| 24 | As these new technologies involve the usage of newer , and more advanced equipments , the costs of using such technologies tend to be higher than in the past . |
| 25 | From the points above , we can see that due to the increasing price of raw materials , it is very difficult to come up with new products consistently as it is very costly to build them . |
| 26 | Therefore to be able to show some achievement , the speed of research would need to increase thereby increasing the total cost incurred . |
| 27 | This condition requires high-quality materials , and consequently , much money would be spent on research to find these materials . |
| 28 | Equipping students with essential technical skills would require a considerable amount of funds . |
| 29 | The cost is high , especially nowadays when new technologies and treatments are expensive . |
| 30 | Huge cost and time will be wasted and manpower will be mobilized just to rectify these unfortunate problems . |
| 31 | In brief , innovators have to face many challenges when they want to develop new products . |
| 32 | Because this technology appears to be quite controversial regarding the cost , time required and safety . |
| 33 | However , we should know that for these problems to be solved , it will require long term investment and there will certainly be some problems that can not be completely unraveled . |
| 34 | Nevertheless , the technology required is not readily attainable and it will take a long time to be realised . |
| 35 | In addition to the amount of time and energy sacrificed , the inventors must have the perseverance in order to successfully create a technology . |
| 36 | As a result , research and development in these fields today have become significantly more costly compared to R & D costs in previous years . |
| 37 | This is not an easy process and it requires time and effort to deal with it . |
| 38 | The funds needed for this research would be very high . |
| 39 | These are very complex research undertakings could take a long period of time and requires collaboration with partners across the world ( Carre , 2006 ) . |
| 40 | For large scale engineering design processes , a huge amount of resources is required . |
| 41 | These problems need continuous attention and therefore incur repetitive and expensive expenditures . |
| 42 | Although critics highlighted that further research and development is required for systems components ( such as vessel and pressure tubes ) , which in turn demands more funds . |
| 43 | Last but not least , one of the major problems with serendipitous discovery is that it requires an extra step to get approval from a company in order to mass produce or even continue to do the project . |
| 44 | However , they have higher requirements for the personnel and capital , which are difficult for some companies that are in shortage of capital . |
| 45 | This greatly increases the difficulties to be innovative . |
| 46 | However , innovations do not come easy . |
| 47 | However , it is always a tough path to undertake as there will be problems arising during the design process . |
| 48 | Unfortunately , these problems can not be solved in the short term ; it will require much effort to bring back the knowledge and materials into my country . |
| 49 | The more complex the process is , the more difficult to predict the problems . |
| 50 | These essential courses and exercises will cost a lot of money to carry out . |
| 51 | The implementation of many big projects or innovations requires large amounts of economic support . |
| 52 | The process of developing a new product based on innovation is not an easy task for innovators . |
| 53 | With the invention of such technology , controversy over the use of this technology has been increasing . |
| 54 | selection of solutions to any of the problems will probably be the most difficult stage in the design process . |
| 55 | This research took very long to carry out and commercialise as it has to go through a long corporate structure for approval . |
| 56 | Spending on education , research and development and urban renewals are long term projects and need a large amount of funding in order to succeed . |
| 57 | As we all know , it is often costly to gather sufficient valuable information in this information age and carry out a new policy in today 's materialistic society . |
| 58 | In conclusion , it is not an easy process for an innovation to be out in the market . |
| 59 | Most inventions , be they new or improved from previous inventions , take a vast amount of time and money before they might become an innovation . |
| 60 | However , these technologies are expensive . |
| 61 | Hence , designing and innovation would be a difficult task for them in this moment . |
| 62 | Subsequently , this development will induce a higher capital cost of equipment . |
| 63 | In the case of SCWR , due to the presence of high pressure and possible corrosion , the expenditure on research and maintenance will be high . |
| 64 | There are enormous items left to do in order for this concept to succeed in future . |
| 65 | This can be quite a hassle and it requires a lot of concentration . |
| 66 | A company will spend a lot of money and a lot of time designing and producing a new product. . |
| 67 | Building additional housing and infrastructure would cost a huge amount of money . |
| 68 | This will require the building materials to be very tough , resulting in higher cost . |
| 69 | The design process of every invention needs large amount of expenses . |
| 70 | For any technology to be developed , the inventors have to spend a lot of time and effort in their research . |
| 71 | Because of these types of officials , this process can cost a long . Hence the companies lose precious time . |
| 72 | High cost may be incurred for certain research when scarce or imported resources are involved . |
| 73 | Since industry innovation is a process with very high risk . |
| 74 | The cost of this technology is high compared with traditional treatment . |
| 75 | All these make it even more difficult for the innovation to bear fruit . |
| 76 | Both of them need capital , time and technology to be successful . |
| 77 | It is true that the requirement for the materials is tough to meet . |
| 78 | This does not just waste a lot of time in the case of an innovation project , but also . |
| 79 | Therefore , the government may require several years and a huge amount of public spending to achieve the vision of becoming a world-class city . |
| 80 | Research is usually based in certain organizations and it requires some time , funds and resources before the researchers can finally obtain the expected results . |
| 81 | Designing of engineering innovation may take up to several years of processes to see the ideal final output product coming to reality . |
| 82 | First of all , in my opinion , the hugest problem throughout all the innovations is lack of certain resources , raw materials , some necessary tools and high-tech devices or equipments . |
| 83 | compared with this , however , the time for design and development seem too long to wait . |
| 84 | However , due to the growing aging population , further research is necessary in order to cater to this growing segment . |
| 85 | Hence for all serendipitous and research-based technologies to be discovered , the inventors have to spend a lot of time and energy in their works . |
| 86 | In other words , when the technology becomes more mature and more profitable in the future ( which is very possible ) , it is very hard to guarantee that it will only be put to good use good use . |
| 87 | As a big country with a huge amount of population , implementing a new aspect will not be done easily . |
| 88 | The research and development of SFR is very expensive . |
| 89 | However , it was costly to be part of the ARPANET because ARPANET had a tight control on the usage of network . |
| 90 | Therefore , the requirements of people in terms of technology has increased . |
| 91 | It would be very stressful for them , having to keep up with both the pace of work and tax expenses . |
| 92 | Whether a new technology will be popularized usually depends on more than one factor . |
| 93 | pursuing patents is not easy as they take a long time period of time to process , requiring large amount of money . |
| 94 | Such a problem like this can not be solved overnight , but needs to have a suitable long-term plan . |
| 95 | In addition , some opponents may argue that it will take a long time to explore this technology . |
| 96 | These people will need even more help in this highly competitive society . |
| 97 | Usually , a new technology will be tested by more than one factor and the results will directly affect the future of the new technology . |
| 98 | In most cases , it costs quite a lot for project managers to get the licence for an engineering project , not just money and time , . |
| 99 | Better performance has to be weighed against high building and maintenance costs . |
| 100 | Lastly , opponents point out that reprocessing costs a lot of money and there is research demanding expenses too . |
| 101 | For technology based on research , a large amount of money is needed to purchase materials that are essential for the research and investigations to be conducted . |
| 102 | Even today when the technology is so advanced , the price is still quite high . |
| 103 | So it is much harder to put it to use . |
| 104 | With the coming out of a technology people will , of course , , because it already cost a lot . |
| 105 | When systems or objects are developed using high technology , they are not purely safe . |
| 106 | Therefore , further research needs to be done and money will be involved . |
| 107 | Furthermore , how many understand the long and exhausting process required for innovative engineering operations to be executed and optimized ? |
| 108 | Yet innovation is full of risk which may push the company to the edge . |
| 109 | The research span can be years,decades or even longer before the technology can be successfully developed . |
| 110 | The change in the research and development of the country is so rapid that the elderly finds it difficult to catch up with the changes around us . |
| 111 | Given the importance of this task and the possible stresses of the job , it can be very risky to have only have one person in charge . |
| 112 | Though the deployment cost is high at present , the burden will be shared by the many countries supporting the technology . |
| 113 | Due to the complexity of the project , an unskilled person would not be able to do the project . |
| 114 | After all the research that have been done , through software rendering and such , the problems starts when one is trying to develop it . |
| 115 | The process of concept generation , product testing and product implementation requires a lot of resources . |
| 116 | However , its thorough interception capability and high cost consumption raised strong controversies . |
| 117 | From this point of view , further research and development funding is also needed . |
| 118 | The team from FASE will have to seek approval from different agencies which is often very time-consuming . |
| 119 | For a technology that is deliberately invented , it generally requires a much longer time frame as compared to fortuitous discoveries . |
| 120 | New technologies and treatments for the aged are relatively expensive . |
| 121 | This is due to the increased opportunity costs involved with a higher education level . |
| 122 | In conclusion , the design process is demanding and tedious . |
| 123 | Taking into account all of the above elements , there is no wonder high cost in terms of time and labour is required to obtain a licence for an engineering project . |
| 124 | The funding for technology is far from enough . |
| 125 | Last but not the least , any technology must be designed well using advanced technology skills , otherwise it will most likely lose out in the market . |
| 126 | Whereas , most developed technology via research took a long time because they needed to keep researching and trialing things out , if they failed , they would try again until it became an invention . |
| 127 | These are not the only challenges that innovators are going to deal with . |
| 128 | In addition , it is a fairly stressful job because of the limitation of time and the finance . |
| 129 | Moreover , the lack of money to conduct technology research is also an important factor . |
| 130 | What is more , it is also not practical to get everybody implanted with RFID , since it will cost a lot . |
| 131 | Firstly , engineering design processes incur excessive costs . |
| 132 | If all the problems have to be solved by the government , then the work load of the government will be extremely heavy . |
| 133 | Hence money is still needed for the country 's development in order to maintain its world class standard . |
| 134 | With reference to the points mentioned above , it can be clearly seen that in today 's context , where technology is getting more and more advanced , the consequences of a failure or breakdown in high-tech installations is devastating . |
| 135 | With better technology , one can only expect the research and development to increase in cost . |
| 136 | It was very inconvenient as urgent information could not be delivered immediately . |
| 137 | By chance the process might proceed to the research and development stage but that is where more and more problems and troubles will appear and try to block the way out . |
| 138 | For example , the wide range of financial and technological products comes at a cost . |
| 139 | Furthermore , the whole process in the model which Khandani has proposed may take many years to be completed , making self-funded projects less viable if there is still no support along the way . |
| 140 | Consequently , it becomes quite difficult for them to discover potential problems even when they try to . |
| 141 | Often , people need to improve themselves to keep up with the demands and needs of their surrounding milieu . |
| 142 | RFID critics argue that the start-up cost for a fully operational RFID system is high . |
| 143 | The resulting system is then too complex for efficient fault-finding for safety insurance . |
| 144 | It can be seen that the design process is tedious , time consuming and sometimes even never ending . |
| 145 | Apart from that , there is also the research cost as well which requires consideration as it also contributes to the overall cost of the plants . |
| 146 | For some of the complex scientific research projects , it need a long time to go . |
| 147 | However , it is still in the researching process , which means that many other problems concerning health matters and the efficiency of the concept could arise before it can reach the final stage . |
| 148 | With the development in industries and technology , the consequences of mistakes in design processes have become increasingly disastrous ( LaPorte , 1996 ) . |
| 149 | Another problem is that the designing process must keep up with the rapid developments in technology , for otherwise by the time it is completed , it may already been rendered as obsolete . |
| 150 | Thus , it will take time for the plan to take its full effect . |
| 151 | In order to proceed from the initial stage of innovation development to the final stage , the most important issue is to have a huge sum of fund for development and commercial purposes . |
| 152 | Tedious 'red tape ' in all the government processes would slow down the progress of research , resulting in lower working quality and efficiency . |
| 153 | So , this is another major factor that innovators have to consider . |
| 154 | The construction of the team will not be easy as the choices are limited . |
| 155 | However , it would take years for a new generation of engineers to be trained in innovative engineering . |
| 156 | However , there are many obstacles and contradictions in finding a big consortium to raise these funds . |
| 157 | Nevertheless , there are some problems and controversies surrounding the use of such technology despite the convenience it brings to the society . |
| 158 | How to call them back and work out some big projects is a tough task for our government . |
| 159 | As such , with all the hardships that the aged people have gotten through in helping to develop our country , it will be ruthless for us to leave them unattended or even setting limitations . |
| 160 | We can see from the above , inventing things is not an easy task . |
| 161 | Although some products may take a longer time such as the artificial heart device . An engineer should not be afraid of taking risk and time . |
| 162 | In addition , if they were to be subjected to demands of work performance and long work hours in most jobs , how could they ever live a healthier lifestyle ? |
| 163 | It seems too extravagant to pay for the designing of the product. . |
| 164 | There are certain stages of the process to complete before being able to come up with a feasible solution . |
| 165 | Some of the reasons that these accidents occurred are due to poor technology at that time . |
| 166 | Therefore , this is one of the major factors that will definitely affect innovators from developing innovation products . |
| 167 | Time is often wasted in the administrative part of the process . |
| 168 | As unveiled in the research report , it somehow took longer for the health facilities to obtain approval from the State Health Agency than to actually build or extend the needed facilities . |
| 169 | In my opinion , serendipitously discovered technology faces problems when it comes to gathering support and marketing while a well researched technology faces problems during the research and development stage . |
| 170 | First of all , with the current intensive workload , is it possible to put more burdens on employees ' shoulders ? |
| 171 | This is a big amount and thus needs a consortium to raise . |
| 172 | Hence , the testing result will take some time to reach a conclusion . |
| 173 | We all know things are always hard before it becomes easy . |
| 174 | In China , it will take several years for a new technology or new engineering design to be put into practice . |
| 175 | One similarity the two technologies share is that the process is tedious . |
| 176 | Another cause of concern has to do with the lack of expertise in this field of technology . |
| 177 | The process of inventing and innovating are crucial to all of us . |
| 178 | It is so important that innovation design should be present anywhere . |
| 179 | One of the major differences is whether there is a need for the technology . |
| 180 | This problem refers to " immature technologies , mismatch between new technology and production capacity , lack of technical personnel or brain drain " . |
| 181 | We are worried about not only the shortage of technology but also the danger of terrorists . |
| 182 | This will in turn be a burden for any country to bear . |
| 183 | We have seen how the problems of our lack of experience and expertise , coupled with our static mindsets , can affect multiple stages of the Engineering Design Process for Innovations , and ultimately innovation itself . |

|---|---|
| 11 | Another reason of using surveillance technology such as RFID to track people is that it can help to prevent crimes . |
| 12 | Moreover , the main intention of RFID is to protect the society since the police can use the technology to detect criminals . |
| 13 | One of the vital advantages of the use of RFID technology is that it can boost the security level effectively in a few areas ( Ramdasi , 2009 ) . |
| 14 | The benefits of RFID are its efficiency and the safety it can offer which people in the future will enjoy . |
| 15 | However , the use of RFID to store information can bring about much convenience and efficiency in hospitals . |
| 16 | In conclusion , the used of RFID to track people have more concrete and constructive advantages that can help to save lives . |
| 17 | Surveillance technology such as RFID should be used to track people because of the convenience it can bring about . |
| 18 | Another key application of RFID is that RFID helps to improve the healthcare sector . |
| 19 | First and foremost , with the RFID surveillance technology , personal safety in public places can be enhanced . |
| 20 | First of all , RFID has played an important role in preventing crimes . |
| 21 | Therefore , if we would like to minimise our workload , save time , ensure that we live in a safer environment and save lives , RFID technology should be used to carry out these intentions . |
| 22 | Furthermore , this report also stated that RFID tags could promote the frequent access for the patient to their medical information and increase the continuity and coordination of care which reduces many kinds of medical error like adverse drugs event . |
| 23 | Hence , RFID should be used to enhance patient care and safety . |
| 24 | In conclusion , surveillance technology such as RFID should be used to track people since it helps in deterring crime and terrorism , monitoring employees and improving welfare of patients . |
| 25 | Surveillance technology in the form of Radio-Frequency Identification ( RFID ) has brought about many improvements in the efficiency and procedure of our systems . |
| 26 | This gives the public a sense of security and hence , the use of RFID to monitor ex-offenders is beneficial to the society . |
| 27 | Thus , it will be much more convenient effective if these firefighters have implanted RFID chip which record their information . |
| 28 | Surveillance technology such as RFID can improve two components of our healthcare system . |
| 29 | RFID technology provides better security than other surveillance gadgets such as CCTV and reduces thefts in our society . |
| 30 | One of the ways to prevent these from happening is to make use of surveillance technology such as surveillance camera and the RFID . |
| 31 | Providing Better Services Through the use of RFID Technology in Healthcare . |
| 32 | The use of RFID to track criminals will improve the safety and security within a prison and ultimately , improve the overall national security . |
| 33 | Advocates of surveillance technology argue that RFID tags provide an alternative to access patients ' information and thus , reduce medical errors . |
| 34 | Overall , RFID is effective and beneficial in reducing and solving crimes . |
| 35 | Secondly , RFID can ensure the safety of public . |
| 36 | By implanting RFID into passports , it will enhance security and at the same time , facilitate travel . |
| 37 | From the security 's point of view , RFID can provide more precise and complete information on suspects or criminals , which results in the reduction in time and manpower for an investigation . |
| 38 | Firstly , due to RFID , the safety and security of the patients are ensured . |
| 39 | The adoption of RFID for " logistics units and higher-value , lower volume items " is believed to simultaneously improve the supply chain efficiency as well as prevent property crime . |
| 40 | The used of RFID help to increase work efficiency in hospitals as information are available easier . |
| 41 | Although concerns on privacy issues are raised , RFID benefits the society by ensuring safety among people . |
| 42 | Even though the use of RFID in human tracking could help to improve on the safety and security , there are several threats such as privacy and health hazards that we need to consider . |
| 43 | It is obvious that RFID technology plays a crucial role in improving the healthcare system . |
| 44 | Firstly , RFID can help to protect special groups of people . |
| 45 | Incorporating the use of RFID in the healthcare industry will improve the efficiency and current practice of the sector . |
| 46 | Hence , the use of RFID is greatly beneficial in the medical field . |
| 47 | One area which benefits greatly from RFID technology is the health sector . |
| 48 | Secondly , RFID ensures the safety of the public by monitoring suspicious people who might pose a danger to society so as to prevent them from causing harm to the public . |
| 49 | Surveillance technology such as RFID to track people plays a crucial role in preventing the criminal activities as well as monitoring threats . |
| 50 | Furthermore , it can be argued that RFID technology can reduce delays at checkpoints and entrances which in turn would improve efficiency and speed ( Data Privacy & Integrity Advisory Committee , 2006 ) . |
| 51 | Since RFID automates such procedures that protect patients from danger , it reduces the amount of personal contact between patients and nurses ( Rapid Adoption of RFID in Healthcare , 2006 ) . |
| 52 | From forms as high level as satellite surveillance to the common Radio Frequency Identification Device ( RFID ) , surveillance technology has served us well . |
| 53 | Thus , RFID can be used to improve management . |
| 54 | RFID : Increasing patient safety , reducing healthcare costs . |
| 55 | Surveillance technology such as RFID also plays a pivotal role in health field . |
| 56 | RFID enhances productivity in the healthcare system , helps to monitor ex-offenders and also helps to locate missing personnel . |
| 57 | While some argue that the use of RFID to track people is unfavourable , it in fact not only ensures one 's security and safety but also saves time and cuts cost for an industry . |
| 58 | Besides that , deployment of RFID could benefit the aging population by ensuring that everyone is being looked after by medical professionals without overstretching the whole healthcare facilities . |
| 59 | Thus , RFID help to ease their work but increase the efficiency simultaneously . |
| 60 | Albeit the risk of privacy invasion , RFID tags are potential devices which do benefit humans if executed under strict regulations . |
| 61 | Advances in technology and reduced costs in chip production have led to the proliferation of surveillance technology such as Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) to track people . |
| 62 | Besides that , RFID technology is also important in the healthcare industry as it can save lives ( Rapid Adoption of RFID in Healthcare , 2006 ) . |
| 63 | Hence , the use of RFID technology would still be effective and beneficial to us . |
| 64 | Hence , the use of RFID greatly speeds up the tedious process of finding missing personnel and at the same time , minimizes wastage of resources . |
| 65 | RFID is more efficient and convenient in tracking early released criminals than other surveillance technology as it simplifies the locating process . |
| 66 | Secondly , RFID helps to reduce and solve crimes . |
| 67 | While some argue that the adoption of RFID is a violation of human privacy , it indeed helps to protect the safety of families , the public and to identify patients . |
| 68 | In addition to this , Axcess International has also promoted the use of RFID as a safety measure for tracking each individual . |
| 69 | One good example of such applications is the usage of RFID , a cutting-edge technology that uses radio waves for the purpose of tracking and monitoring . |
| 70 | RFID can also protect the Homeland security of a country from many threats when it is used on its own . |
| 71 | RFID technology can improve the health care of the elderly . |
| 72 | Therefore , the use of RFID technology should be promoted and enhanced . |
| 73 | While proponents of RFID suggest that the use of RFID brings benefits such as convenience and protection to patients and children , others view it as a form of security threat and intrusion of privacy ( Data Privacy & Integrity Advisory Committee , 2006 ) . |
| 74 | Although applying surveillance technology on people might lead to the harming of human rights , we can minimise this situation by raising the security level of these RFID chip by encrypting the information it contains . |
| 75 | Advocators suggest that using RFID to conduct social control and tracking of suspects could benefit the whole society . |
| 76 | One of the many technologies innovated is the surveillance technology , mainly RFID ( Radio-Frequency Identification ) . |
| 77 | Some people say that the use of RFID invades people 's privacy ; others maintain that the use of RFID can bring us a lot of benefits . |
| 78 | On the other hand , some people may think that the usage of RFID to track other people will turn out to be beneficial especially if it is operated for security purpose such as surveillance security camera . |
| 79 | RFID is useful in combating crime . |
| 80 | On the other hand , some people may argue that RFID technology is a form of crime prevention . |
| 81 | Thus , RFID technology is able to protect the patients and ensure a safe and secure environment in hospitals . |
| 82 | Some argue that RFID tracking has bad effects on human life but in reality the tracking gives many advantages to humans . |
| 83 | Firstly , RFID can ensure the safety of loved ones . |
| 84 | Critics may argue that RFID can be used to deter terrorism . |
| 85 | Hospitals have capitalized on the potential of RFID and have since reaped the benefits . |
| 86 | With advances in technology , surveillance nowadays is aided by equipment such as closed-circuit TV ( CCTV ) , camera , voice recorder and RFID ( radio frequency identification ) . |
| 87 | Firstly , RFID enables accuracy in medical contexts ( Roberti , 2007 ) . |
| 88 | Secondly , RFID is an efficient and reliable surveillance tool to watch people who maybe a threat . |
| 89 | For example , RFID equipped cards can help control the access to some restricted areas . |
| 90 | However , there can be some laws passed down to ensure that technologies like RFID are not abused but used in the proper direction . |
| 91 | Advocators suggest that using RFID to conduct social control and suspects tracking can benefit the whole society . |
| 92 | The use of RFID can minimize the long registration time for patients so that they are able to seek treatment in the shortest possible time . |
| 93 | Moreover , for retail companies , RFID is also a possible tool for them to reduce theft and sabotage . |
| 94 | Microlise RFID Helps Crack Down on Crime. ( n.d. ) . |
| 95 | Firstly , the use of RFID to identify patients enhances productivity in the healthcare system ( Sade , 2007 , p.2 ) . |
| 96 | Among the technologies available , radio- frequency identification ( RFID ) is emerging mainly due to its ability to transmit information wirelessly via magnetic fields as well as the possibility of low cost tag in the future . |
| 97 | There are many kinds of surveillance technology and RFID is one of them . |
| 98 | Even when such events occur , the investigation and the recapturing of those involved would be more easily dealt with the use of RFID . |
| 99 | In recent years , surveillance technology is getting more and more popular,especially Radio-Frequency Identification ( RFID ) . |
| 100 | Arguments have been put forth that the RFID tags on individuals could be programmed in such a way as to minimize information leakage . |
| 101 | However , we have to note that RFID is a special surveillance technology with unique characteristics and implications . |
| 102 | Secondly , RFID should be used in tracking criminals so as to prevent crimes and enhance security . |
| 103 | Although many people argue that RFID violates human rights and may raise the illegal tracking of RFID tags ( RFID-everything on RIFD , 2005 ) , its advantages still outweigh disadvantages overwhelmingly , as RFID can not only protect human beings ' possessions and security , but also enhance the efficiency of business ' operation period . |
| 104 | Hence , RFID will be able to lookout for these patients and ensure they do not go missing , making them safe ( Getz , 2009 ) . |
| 105 | Alternatively , RFIDs are a beneficial tool for convicts as it gives them a chance of entering society again . |
| 106 | Hence , RFID makes great contribution to our society . |
| 107 | This tracking also gives access to the patient 's medical information more accurately such as the temperature of the patient and whether the patient is allergic to some medicines . Secondly , RFID increases the security of workers in the workplace ( Mehdizadeh , 2007 ) . |
| 108 | Secondly , the implementation of radio identification technology in prison can also help to track prisoners and reduce violence in the prisons . |
| 109 | Over the years as technology advances , the improvement in surveillance technology such as Radio-frequency identification ( RFID ) and surveillance cameras has brought about the increase in usage of such technology . |
| 110 | Active RFID tags , which are tags that use batteries to increase the range of frequency of a system , can be used to solve this problem . |
| 111 | Hence , it is so necessary and sufficient for us to apply RFID technology to such areas . |
| 112 | RFID also helps to identify disaster victims , and provide effective treatment for patients in emergency situations in a hospital . |
| 113 | Recent years have witnessed the significant growth of surveillance technology such as RFID ( radio-frequency identification ) . |
| 114 | In fact , there are still a lot of applications for RFID in various fields and industries including security , public transport , healthcare , and e-payment that its popularity is increasing rapidly . |
| 115 | For instance , it is more safe now for patients who have mental diseases if they are lost , because they are being tracked all the time in the hospital under the surveillance system like RFID . |
| 116 | Technology is improving exponentially , especially for RFID . |
| 117 | In my point of view , this worry can be handled by making corresponding laws to regulate the use of RFID . |
| 118 | Hence , the surveillance technology such as RFID should be used . |
| 119 | The second reason is the degree of security of using RFID for tracking people . |
| 120 | In conclusion , it is evident that RFID benefits the defense and healthcare sector . |
| 121 | As a type of surveillance technology , Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) has been widely used in our lives . |
| 122 | In recent years , the advancements of 'Radio Frequency Identification ' ( RFID ) have led to its increased use in many major organisations . |
| 123 | RFID can help the government to gather information such as events involving people , mobile and places into the computer system so that they can watch out and catch suspicious persons |
| 124 | Nonetheless , despite RFID still progressing in its infancy stage , it is seen to possess uncapped potential and can be put to valuable uses , especially in connection with hospital- patient identification , anti-theft tracking as well as in government agencies for identification purposes . |
| 125 | Such technologies make health care much simpler , which in turn , makes it much more efficient . |
| 126 | With all that has been said , the advantages of the usage of RFID clearly outweigh the drawbacks of the technology . |
| 127 | Claim : RFID Will Stop Terrorists . |
| 128 | Therefore , the use of RFID to track seniors ' daily routine can improve their health care through early detection of health problems when they are at home . |
| 129 | Secondly , we can take actions to minimize the negative effects of RFID such as the invasion of personal privacy . |
| 130 | Secondly , implanting RFID tags into ex-offenders aids the authorities in monitoring their activities . |
| 131 | The benefits of RFID includes locating the patients easily for tests and administering of medicine , and a lower response time of the housekeeping department in clearing the bed once a patient is discharged , which will then reduce an individual 's waiting time for a bed ( Friedlos , 2009 ) . |
| 132 | One of the examples of surveillance technology is Radio Frequency Identification or RFID . |
| 133 | The RFID supporters may argue that a lot of protection is provided in this case . |
| 134 | Thirdly , RFID allows optimal patient care and safety in hospitals . |
| 135 | Research and development in Information Technology allowed resource management to be simplified . |
| 136 | RFID is an automatic contact-less identification and data capturing technology using Radio Frequency ( RF ) signal . |
| 137 | It has been proven that surveillance technology can be beneficial to mankind in terms of deterring crime and terrorism , monitoring employees and improving patient 's welfare . |
| 138 | Therefore , the use of biometrics passport will not only increase efficiency but also enhance security at the same time . |
| 139 | This greatly improves the efficiency in hospitals as compared to the past when all the information are documented in paper ( Latest RFID Development Kit for Hospital Tracking Solution n.d. ) . |
| 140 | Hence , the use of surveillance technology such as RFID should be necessary . |
| 141 | However , the benefits of RFID outweigh these issues . |
| 142 | Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) technology is a new technology which is in use to help the elderly . |
| 143 | Moreover , RFID technologies are durable and are able to withstand adverse conditions |
| 144 | Surveillance technology such as the Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) is one example . |
| 145 | However , RFID advocators may argue for the purpose of alleviating the fear of privacy invasion . |
| 146 | Furthermore , RFID tags help to prevent wrong prescription of medicine and any delay treatments which will endanger the lives of patients ( Antonio , Putten & Gerald ) . |
| 147 | With much improved equipment and tools , they are able to treat illnesses with much higher efficiency . |
| 148 | Radio frequency identification ( RFID ) is an example of a surveillance technology used commonly for identification and tracking purposes . |
| 149 | The value of radio being able to transmit and receive information over a distance wirelessly and cheaply has been the attention of scientists and inventors . |
| 150 | Supporters claim that surveillance technology can increase efficiency and effectiveness in tracking criminals and potential terrorists , and decreasing crime rates or track runaway or Alzheimer patients in hospitals to provide better care for every patient ( Jean , 2007 ) . |
| 151 | Firstly , it is undeniable that RFID is very useful in our daily life . |
| 152 | As mentioned by the " American Medical Association " ( Roberti 2007 ) , RFID allows quick and accurate identification and access to patients ' data in times of emergency . |
| 153 | RFID has enabled potential criminals to commit crimes more easily than ever with technology that is so readily available and surprisingly inexpensive . |
| 154 | Although there are arguments that using RFID is invading people 's privacy , the benefits are more prominent . |
| 155 | Radio-frequency identification tags ( RFID ) are among the several types of surveillance technologies of today . |
| 156 | However , recent technology such as the " Med-eMonitor from InforMedix " can help to ease this burden ( 3 ) . |
| 157 | RFID will be the focus in this context . |
| 158 | To sum up , RFID is a useful technology and like each technology , it has its pros and cons . |
| 159 | Thirdly , RDIF improves the speed of patient identification in hospitals . |
| 160 | Thirdly , the development of electronic health record system ( EHR ) helps to increase efficiency and accuracy of a medical diagnosis . |
| 161 | Although cost for RFID systems in the future will decrease , privacy issues , health issues and security issues will still exist . |
| 162 | Feds approve human RFID implantsSolution desperately seeking a problem . |
| 163 | RFID , also known as radio frequency identification , is a piece of technology which makes use of electromagnetic or electrostatic waves in the radio frequency to identify or pass information through the radio wave . |
| 164 | In order to improve the overall efficiency of the medical team , Tan Tock Seng Hospital has rolled out RFID in 2007 to monitor more than 1,200 patients ( Friedlos , 2009 ) . |
| 165 | One such example is Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) technology . |
| 166 | Surgeries can also proceed smoothly and timely as both staff and patients can be tracked since they are wearing the tags . |
| 167 | It indeed has brought great convenience and efficiency in attending to the needs of patients . |
| 168 | Some may argue that tracking ex-convicts with the use of RFID could be used to prevent criminal behavior ( BBC News , 2006 ) . |
| 169 | But in fact , some argue that revealing this information can protect some third parties from harm , for example , enable the avoidance of inherited disorder . |
| 170 | However , there is a device called Med-eMonitor which can help ease such burden . |
| 171 | The disadvantages of the use of RFID outweigh the benefits . |
| 172 | Radio-frequency identification ( RFID ) is a type of surveillance technology which has been used for a while now . |
| 173 | Firstly , RFID enhances personnel management . |
| 174 | Thirdly , genetic testing reduces the amount of psychological stress . |
| 175 | RFID is an electronic method of exchanging data over radio frequency waves . |
| 176 | The acronym RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and it is widely used in different industries . |
| 177 | Radio-Frequency Identification ( RFID ) is one of it . |
| 178 | Applied Digital Solution produced sub-dermal RFID tags in late 90s and it has found many applications nowadays . |
| 179 | Using these new passports could cut short the time spent for identity verification and recording when crossing the borders . |
| 180 | It ensures a higher level of security and also allows nurses to monitor more patients at a time . |
| 181 | Radio-frequency identification , more often known as RFID in short , is one of the most pervasive technologies developed since the late 1940s . |
| 182 | This has enhanced patient care as nurses have more time for other patients and are notified immediately when patient has fever ( Friedlos , 2009 ) . |
| 183 | Today , Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) technology has been used almost worldwide . |

| 0 | Further research and development funding for Generation IV nuclear reactors , particularly the Very- High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) , should be supported . |
|---|---|
| 1 | Hence there should be further research and funding into the building of supercritical-water-cooled reactors to further improve on this new generation IV reactor concept . |
| 2 | Thus , it is important to channel funding to the R&D for Gen IV reactors as they provide the energy that will meet our future energy needs . |
| 3 | In conclusion , we should increase funding for research and development for generation IV nuclear reactors . |
| 4 | Hence , we should support further research in this area and increase the development funding for nuclear power . |
| 5 | Therefore , further research and development funding for nuclear reactors is necessary for our society since it is a good way to solve the energy problem . |
| 6 | Nuclear power is an important source of energy for the future . Hence more funding should be provided for research and development of nuclear reactors . |
| 7 | Nevertheless , with the gas-cooled fast reactors ( GFR ) concept in hand , further research and funding should be devoted to expanding nuclear power . |
| 8 | One way to address this issue is to provide funding to further research and develop Generation IV reactors , particularly the Very- High-Temperature Reactors ( VHTR ) . |
| 9 | However , the funding for the research and development for the generation IV reactors is a must as there is an increasing need for energy these days . |
| 10 | Hence , it is imperative to set aside funds for researching and developing generation IV reactors such as the very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) to improve on the past reactors and solve global warming . |
|---|---|
| 11 | From my perspective , it is very meaningful to research on this , through which we can build more efficient and safer reactors so that the energy problem can be solved to a great extent . |
| 12 | We will be considering which reactor should have more emphasis to have further research and development funding for it . |
| 13 | Thus , the government should invest more in nuclear power development to make construction of these reactors a feasible feat . |
| 14 | Thus , there should be funding for research and development for Generation IV nuclear reactors . |
| 15 | Therefore , the development of Generation IV reactors deserves R&D funding . |
| 16 | Newer ideas and technological improvements are possible if the necessary funding is directed towards the research of nuclear power and technologies like them . |
| 17 | Nuclear power will make an important contribution to our future energy needs together with other alternatives ( European Physical Society,2007 ) . Hence , in order to produce nuclear energy more effectively and cleanly we must put in more support and funding for the research and development of nuclear reactors . |
| 18 | Therefore , countries should support further research and development funding for the very-high-temperature reactor . |
| 19 | Nevertheless , further research and development funding is needed for generation IV reactor concept , namely the " Very-High Temperature " reactor . |
| 20 | In this situation , nuclear power deserves the research funding for further development . |
| 21 | That 's why people should make further research and development on the Supercritical-water-cooled reactors ( SCWR ) which will be one of our future electricity fuels . |
| 22 | In conclusion , further research and development funding for nuclear power should be supported . |
| 23 | Due to the rising demand of energy and the need to solve the problems in the design of current reactor , generation IV reactor has been developed . |
| 24 | Therefore , it would be wise to spend more money on research to solve these problems in order to produce nuclear power . |
| 25 | In order to do so , additional funds , efforts and assistance need to be provided to the research and development of generation IV reactors . |
| 26 | Therefore , research and funding for Generation IV reactors is necessary . |
| 27 | Since there are a lot of benefits in using nuclear energy , especially energy from the very high-temperature reactor ( VHTR ) , further research and development on nuclear energy sources should be encouraged . |
| 28 | Hence , it is necessary to have further research and more development funding for nuclear power due to its cost-efficiency , security and safety issues . |
| 29 | Therefore , I feel that generation IV reactors such as the Supercritical-water-cooled reactors ( SCWR ) should be funded for their research and development . |
| 30 | Hence , it is of utmost important that research and development funding is provided for Very-High Temperature reactors . |
| 31 | Therefore , such generation IV reactors will certainly improve the environment and should be funded for their research and development . |
| 32 | In conclusion , there should be funding for research and development for Generation IV reactors . |
| 33 | However , this is the reason why more funds must be given to support further research for Generation IV reactors . |
| 34 | In order for the VHTR nuclear reactor to be ideal for commercial production of energy , a lot of research is needed . |
| 35 | Therefore , further research and development funding is very important to refine the safety , efficiency and costs of the lead-cooled fast reactors . |
| 36 | Hence more research and development should be put into nuclear reactors . |
| 37 | I feel that the Supercritical water reactor ( SCWR ) should be further researched and developed and help the whole world in the near future . |
| 38 | Indeed , nuclear energy should be funded for further research and development . |
| 39 | As is the case for both the reactor and the fuel cycle , technology development to achieve cost competitiveness is necessary . |
| 40 | Given the advancement in current and future technology , it makes sense to invest in GIV reactor in providing for our growing energy demand . |
| 41 | Hence , channeling funds to the R&D of Gen IV reactors is necessary as it helps to solve the waste problem . |
| 42 | Finally , funding should be provided for research on nuclear power technology . |
| 43 | Therefore , unremitting efforts and funding should be put into its research and development so that it would give a fresh impetus to enhance the development of nuclear power . |
| 44 | Hence , considering long-term interests , people should encourage further research for nuclear power . |
| 45 | Further research and development is needed to overcome this challenge and to turn this reactor into a reality . |
| 46 | Therefore , I feel that we should allow further research and development funding for nuclear energy so that it can be our future source of energy . |
| 47 | Research and development needs to be done consistently so that we can better improve the concept of nuclear reactor in the future . |
| 48 | In addition , future generation IV reactors like the Supercritical-water-cooled reactor can produce much more electrical energy than older generation reactors , so we should develop it . |
| 49 | Since developing higher technology can reduce its disadvantages and increase its benefit , we should develop nuclear energy ; hence we should support further research and development in nuclear energy . |
| 50 | This raises a need to apply new technology to create power , and building new nuclear reactors such as the very-high-temperature reactors would be a choice to consider . |
| 51 | In order for these new generations of reactors to take over as sources of energy , resources must be invested into it before these ideas can turn into reality . |
| 52 | Hence , the very high temperature reactor should be further researched and developed . |
| 53 | In the long term , funds should be given to support the development of Generation IV reactors at current stage . |
| 54 | Hence there should be funding for R&D for the Generation IV reactors . |
| 55 | In this case it will be a good decision to fund the development of nuclear energy , especially the generation IV nuclear reactors . |
| 56 | In the long term view , society will benefit from the research and development of nuclear power . |
| 57 | Therefore , there should be further research and funding into the building of supercritical-water-cooled reactor . |
| 58 | Therefore , further research and funding in the supercritical-water-cooled reactor should take place . |
| 59 | Given the advantages mentioned above , I believe that R&D funding should be given to Generation IV reactors . |
| 60 | Therefore , more research should be carried out on the nuclear power plants . |
| 61 | However , the newborn technology , Generation IV reactors needs to be improved before it can be applied to practical uses . |
| 62 | It is high time we attached enough significance to the promising nuclear energy like SWCR by funding its research and development to make it more palatable . |
| 63 | Lastly , the benefits that a supercritical-water-cooled reactor could bring make it worthwhile to continue research and funding into the reactor . |
| 64 | In conclusion , it could be a wise decision for the public to evaluate nuclear energy as a form of energy and eventually , support further research and development funding for it . |
| 65 | Therefore , developed countries need to increase funding to accelerate the development of generation IV nuclear reactors to allow it to replace conventional energy sources such as coal and gases in the near future . |
| 66 | Nowadays , because of the desperate need of human societies for long term energy sources , experts are forced to explore a safer and more economical reactor to generate nuclear power |
| 67 | In my perspective , it is a good choice to support and fund the development of generation IV nuclear reactors for future energy consumption . |
| 68 | However , by considering the tremendous benefits it will bring , funding for further research and development of this reactor should still be encouraged . |
| 69 | However , future thorough research and development towards the safe operation of nuclear plants may prove to be worthwhile . |
| 70 | Therefore , research for a new generation of reactors is needed to address this problem . |
| 71 | Thus , I agree that there should be research and development ( R&D ) funding for the Gen IV nuclear reactors . |
| 72 | Therefore , despite the public concerns on safety , public health , and budget , I believe that one should support further research and development funding for generation IV nuclear reactors as it may be the energy source that prevents our planet from disaster such as catastrophic climate change . |
| 73 | By allocating more funds into the research of nuclear energy , scientists can look for possible alternative elements to fuel the nuclear plants . |
| 74 | I feel that if ample time is spent in researching this model of nuclear reactor , it will yield the best return and result and it will also address public concerns . |
| 75 | In conclusion , I support further research and development funding for nuclear power as a source of energy for the future . |
| 76 | In addition , the benefits that a supercritical-water-cooled reactor could bring are worth further researching and funding in the supercritical-water-cooled reactor . |
| 77 | Hence , we should support further research and development of GIV reactors . |
| 78 | Arguments to support further research and development funding for Very High Temperature Reactor . |
| 79 | However , I strongly support further research and development funding of nuclear reactor plants . |
| 80 | Therefore , we need to develop a new generation of reactors to overcome these disadvantages . |
| 81 | In conclusion , it will be a good decision to fund the development of generation IV nuclear reactors for future energy consumption . |
| 82 | However , as the matter of fact , the advantages of further development of nuclear power are more than the disadvantages , so further research and development of this power source should be supported . |
| 83 | Although the cost for building Generation IV reactors is very high , the issue of the increase in demand of energy today needs to be addressed . |
| 84 | While there are issues relating to the development of nuclear technology , this is precisely why further research is required . |
| 85 | Therefore , research and funding would be necessary for generation IV reactors . |
| 86 | Hence , further research and funding are necessary for generation IV concepts as they help reduce the effect of global warming . |
| 87 | Therefore , in my opinion , there should be R&D funding for Generation IV reactors . |
| 88 | Therefore , generation IV reactors will be more stable to maintain the medical research process and should be funded for their research and development . |
| 89 | To keep up with globalization , we should seriously consider the study of Generation IV concept reactors , which promise higher efficiency of output as an alternative source of energy . |
| 90 | There should be R&D funding for generation IV reactors |
| 91 | As we know that we have a technology gap between now and the proposed Generation IV reactors , it is important that research commences as soon as possible so that implementation of nuclear technology will not be distant . |
| 92 | Hence , we should conduct research on a new generation of reactors even more to replace the old ones . |
| 93 | Hence , I conclude that there must be further research and funding for the Generation IV reactors . |
| 94 | Although there are some opposing voices against this funding , it is a wise decision to provide R&D funding for Generation IV reactors . |
| 95 | Hence , VHTR , one of the generation IV reactor concepts , should be supported for further research and development funding . |
| 96 | Thus with this in mind , I would strongly advocate further research and development on the Very-high-temperature reactors ( VHTR ) as they suit the " requirements " of the public the most . |
| 97 | In order to optimize its power to meet the increasing demand of electricity as well as to maintain long term sustainability , governments should fund the Generation IV reactors instead of the old generation ones . |
| 98 | Hence there should be funding to research and develop the hybrid concept in the Generation IV reactors . |
| 99 | Thus there should be funding to develop Generation IV reactors . |
| 100 | Therefore , in my opinion , the Very-High-Temperature Reactor should be given priority for further research and development funding . |
| 101 | In my opinion , we should give more support to nuclear development because of its high efficiency , none-greenhouse-gas emission and its valuable by-products during the reaction . |
| 102 | Therefore , nuclear power is a trustworthy technology whose further research and development funding should be supported . |
| 103 | The few paragraphs below explain why you should support further research and development on the super-critical water-cooled reactor ( SCRW ) in terms of safety , security and performance . |
| 104 | Therefore , the very high temperature reactor should be developed . |
| 105 | Support Further Research and Development Funding for Very-High-Temperature Reactor ( VHTR ) |
| 106 | The main objective in this new technological research is to search for cost effective and sustainable solutions to nuclear power ( Hejzlar,2005 ) . |
| 107 | Therefore , rather than wait for a new technology to fully emerge , we should continue to carry out research work on enhancing feasible technology present now , which is the nuclear reactor . |
| 108 | As a result , we can affirm that the concept of Very High Temperature Reactor should be a first priority in further researches and funding to quickly turn it into reality in near future . |
| 109 | Hence , it would be logical to support the research and development of nuclear power plants . |
| 110 | Therefore , more research and development should be carried out so that in future this concept can become the energy supply for everyone on this earth . |
| 111 | Amongst these generation IV reactor concepts , I think the lead-cooled fast reactor is very competent and should get further research and development funding . |
| 112 | As a consequence , to invest in nuclear energy has become quite important and urgent . |
| 113 | The vast difference in energy produced supports the funding for research in nuclear energy . |
| 114 | Therefore , support should be given to develop nuclear power . |
| 115 | Among all these reactors , the concept of supercritical-water-cooled reactors ( SCWR ) is the most suitable concept for funding and development . |
| 116 | Only when the issue is solved and the process of researching generation IV reactors reaches a stable state should these countries channel funding into developing generation IV reactors . |
| 117 | Support for further study of nuclear power |
| 118 | Hence we should pay great attention to and make rational use of nuclear energy . |
| 119 | Instead , we should research into harnessing this great energy . |
| 120 | Although public opposition still exists , with the new generation IV reactors , public support for further research and development of higher security and lower cost plants is increasing . |
| 121 | In my opinion , it is essential to invest in a new nuclear power plant . |
| 122 | Funds have to be inserted so as to support the high technology machinery and also create a safe environment with proper safety guidelines for the reactors . |
| 123 | New nuclear technology is definitely needed to be developed to achieve a broader application in the power industry . |
| 124 | Hence , due to our growing energy needs we need to concentrate on the generation IV Reactors . |
| 125 | These generation IV reactors can only be realized if everyone sees the benefit of nuclear energy and supports the research for it . |
| 126 | Next , the cost of new reactors must be competitive in a changing market place of energy demand . |
| 127 | Finally , given that people are worried about nuclear power , it is much needed that we should research on it so that it will be safer and more efficient for us . |
| 128 | Countries are spending a large amount of money to develop the Generation IV reactors to meet the demand of energy consumption . |
| 129 | To satisfy the increasing demands of nuclear energy , scientists are desperately searching for ways to improve the reactors ' work efficiency . |
| 130 | Although there are public opponents who do not wish for the nuclear reactors to be built due to potential threats , past incidences and cost , the Generation IV VHTR aims to overcome these negative aspects with funding for its research and development . |
| 131 | In conclusion , it is worthwhile to further develop the Molten salt reactor in order to fulfill the booming energy demands . |
| 132 | In my opinion , we should further develop nuclear energy . |
| 133 | However , with the rising need for energy , going ahead to develop the Generation IV concepts is a logical choice . |
| 134 | Basic researches to establish the new nuclear energy system is taking progress , and inquiries and doubts are generated with regards to safety , feasibility and cost . |
| 135 | This further supports the need for research and development on molten salt reactors . |
| 136 | Among these reactor designs , Supercritical-water-cooled reactor ( SCWR ) is the most suitable concept for funding and development due to its usage of advanced material , safety and economical design and high security . |
| 137 | In conclusion , it is quite reasonable for us to consider doing more research on and commercialise the molten salt reactor concept , as well as other types of generation IV reactors . |
| 138 | Nuclear power should be pursued , in recent years there is a leap in nuclear technology . |
| 139 | Therefore , we can not stop the research and development process if we want to continue to have a better energy source . |
| 140 | In my opinion , we should not stop the research and development on this powerful new energy resource . |
| 141 | In summary , if developing countries with unstable economy were to develop generation IV reactors , they would face difficulties in funding the enormous sum of money for set up and operation in the long run ( Hore et al . |
| 142 | Therefore , it is obvious that nuclear power will be undergoing immense research and development . |
| 143 | Nuclear power deserves research funding |
| 144 | Furthermore , it is quite necessary and urgent to set an overall direction of nuclear reactors . |
| 145 | To sum it all , funding for the generation IV concepts is necessary as there is an increasing energy demand today . |
| 146 | Very High Temperature Reactor Deserves Further Research |
| 147 | I have chosen the Supercritical water-cooled reactor to support the argument for further research and development funding for generation IV reactors . |
| 148 | Some of its excellent features have inspired the United States to do a lot of research on the very high temperature reactor . |
| 149 | Moreover , for the generation ( IV ) reactors , there is a debate on whether to channel the funds for the research of SuperCritical water reactors ( SCWRs ) , which scientists have claimed would benefit mankind more in most aspects like cost and efficiency compared to the other five generation ( IV ) reactors . |
| 150 | If the governments and military organizations can not come up with strategy to deal with this problem , we can not afford to set up the R&D funding for the development of generation IV reactors . |
| 151 | So engineers should do more research on new energy and take more fearless experiments to see if there are some plants that can be used to produce energy . |
| 152 | However , without successful generation IV concepts , the nuclear industry will struggle to maintain its current position of generating 17 % of the world 's electricity . |
| 153 | Thus , I support the further research and development of the molten salt reactor . |
| 154 | In order to achieve safer operating environment , government should fund the development of the Gen IV . |
| 155 | Hence , the funding for the Generation IV nuclear reactors is a useful one . |
| 156 | Even though it is known that developing generation IV reactors will benefit the country significantly , we can not neglect the destructive effects that come simultaneously . |
| 157 | We should further develop nuclear power energy since the cons of nuclear energy can be minimized by developing it . |
| 158 | Title : Should countries support further research and development funding for Very-High-Temperature Reactors ? |
| 159 | Thus , in my view , there are much better technology and sources than nuclear power around , so there should be more emphasis and support for other technologies . |
| 160 | Thus , the public should look forward to Generation IV reactors ' performance rather than oppose it . |
| 161 | Generating electricity in a sustainable , economically viable , safe and reliable manner is the basic goals of Generation IV . |
| 162 | Therefore , we need some other nuclear solutions for future reactants , the molten salt reactor , is one of the most promising . |
| 163 | We should improve our nuclear technology first while waiting for nuclear sources from the moon . |
| 164 | Out of all gen IV reactors , only the supercritical water cooled reactor ( SWCR ) can fulfill these requirements , thus it should receive funding for research . |
| 165 | In term of cost , Generation IV reactors are designed to be economically viable . |
| 166 | Gen IV systems are designed to be highly sustainable because the energy they produce meets the desire for clean air and in the long term , benefits the environment . |
| 167 | Money will need to be invested in the training of operators for this new type of generation IV reactors . |
| 168 | Group issue : Should there be R&D funding for the development of SuperCritical Water cooled Reactors ? |
| 169 | Nevertheless , electric cars are still regarded as a great trial innovation which needs further technology support to make improvement . |
| 170 | As expected , every possible ways of generating energy are under research . |
| 171 | In conclusion , I support the notion of research and development of nuclear power plants . |
| 172 | Due to these reasons , it is worthy of supporting the research on the molten salt reactor . |
| 173 | So engineers still have a long way to go to test and find solutions to make better use of wind and solar energy . |
| 174 | Now , the very high temperature reactor is still under development . |
| 175 | So in conclusion , it is better to explore nuclear energy as soon as possible . |
| 176 | Many people support further research and development for generation IV reactors while others do not . |
| 177 | Should funding be given to Supercritical Water Cooled Reactor over the other Generation IV reactors ? |
| 178 | For making use of the electric cars in our daily life , the engineers still have a long way to go . |
| 179 | That is the reason why one of our goals for Generation IV is to ensure the safety of people . |
